LOVING A MANNEQUIN

Chapter 59: Addorro With A Drunk Melanie

*NO ONE POV*

“Melanie, wake up. We are here.”

Addorro shook Melanie to wake her up from sleeping from his car. He just didn't expect that she would be like dead log when she slept drunk.

Addorro gnawed his teeth and kicked his foot slightly on the foot brake and scolded himself, “Addorro oh Addorro, you didn't learn your lesson. Last time she was drunk, you took good care of her for the whole night. You oath not to interfere with her business anymore , but why are you here now? What are you doing now? You deserve it.”

Addorro stared at her and then sighed audibly, and whispered, “Why are you bothering my life? Even once in my life, I never interact with a woman, but when it comes to you, I could not help. I am always there when you need me. Tell me, am I crazy? Why am I talking with the air?”

He reached out Melanie's bag and searched for her house keys and opened the house for her.

And then, he carried her again from the car up to her room.

“God, you are so heavy. Next time, try to diet.” He mumbled while covering her with a blanket. As he bent down to tidy her pillow, Addorro was tempted to stare for Melanie's perfect face. In his eyes, she was like a fragile glass, clean, clear, and shines in everything she does. She was like a flower, exquisite, unique and sweet scented. The way she stared was like always seducing him and her smiles unconsciously moved his heart.

For a long time of staring at her, a desire to claim her lips aroused inside him. His body heated up, his throat dried up and his flesh vibrated in a tickling way. He had an urge to feel her warmth.

He tapped his forehead, “What was I thinking? What made me feel that? I am really crazy. I need to take a bath. What?”

Melanie suddenly moved and the hand that he braced on her side was tripped by her, causing half of his body to fall on top of her.

Melanie moaned which affected Addorro in a sensual way. “What did this woman do to me? Why can't I control my body from reacting to her presence?”

Melanie gradually opened her eyes and their eyes directly met. Before Addorro could think of getting up, Melanie wrapped her arms around his neck and smiled seductively. She whispered, “Seems like I need to drink that wine again. I am having a good dream after drinking it. It even transported me back to my house. This is fantastic.”

“Melanie, you are not having a dream. This is real. Let go of me. Do you know how dangerous it is?” Addorro strived hard to pull out himself from Melanie's arms but unexpectedly she was quite strong when she's drunk. “What crime did I commit from my past life to encounter this kind of woman?”

He tried to unfasten Melanie's arm but instead of letting him go, she rolled on top of him. “Melanie, what are you doing?”

Melanie giggled as she covered her index finger on Addorro’s lips, “Psst, don't make a noise. This is my dream. I can do anything I want. Don't be afraid, I will make you happy in my dream. I will prove to you that I only love you. Here, I will give you my body.”

Melanie moved down and kissed him without a warning.

Addorro's eyes widened in shock. His heart drummed loud and fast and his body froze but his lips subconsciously responded to her tempting kiss.

After a while, his hand traveled on every part of her body but as Melanie started to unbutton her upper garments, Addorro woke up from his senses and halted right away. He shook hard Melanie in order to stop, and yelled at her, “Melanie, wake up! This is not a dream. This is real. If you keep doing this, you will end up ruining yourself.”

Melanie growled and frowned. She tried to kiss him again into his neck but Addorro quickly held her head. Melanie struggled, and complained, “What are you doing? Even in dreams, you don't want me. Am I really that bad? What is wrong with me? Why don't you want me?” Melanie hit Addorro's chest, “I hate you! I hate you! Why is it you?”

Addorro grabbed her wrist, “Melanie, stop it. This is not a dream. Wake up.”

“I hate you! I hate you!” Melanie remained struggling from his hand.

He was already losing his patience so he thought of something to wake her up from her senses. He roamed his eyes around and found the bathroom. He carried her.

“What are you doing? Where are you taking me?” Melanie kept struggling, kicking her feet and hitting her hands.

Addorro quickly turned the faucet and shower on in full volume. In just a few minutes, the huge bathtub was filled up and he tossed Melanie on it.

Melanie drowned and struggled herself to sit up.

Addorro just stood still while Melanie was kicking under the water, causing it to splash around the bathroom.

Not long, her hands clung on the bathtub so Addorro was relieved. At first he thought to help her up but he ignored it otherwise it was him who would suffer again.

Next, Melanie's head surface above the water. She sat down on the bathtub, wiped her face and coughed hard. As she opened her eyes, hers met Addorro’s cold gaze and realized that everything was not a dream.

She glared at him, and coughed again, “Are you sick? Are you planning to kill me?”

“So you are awake now? Do you know what you just did?”

Melanie covered her ears, “I don't want to hear your lectures. Didn't you want to see me? Then, leave."

"Are you serious?"

"Yes. I want you to leave. So I can have a bath."

Addorro smirked, "Look how red your face is. Earlier, you were like a leech who didn't want to separate from me and kept sucking me. Now, you are yelling and pushing me away. Are you muddle-headed?"

Addorro shook his head with a teasing grin, "Alright. I will leave you then. Have a good bath. Oh, be careful. The floor is slippery.”

Melanie rolled her eyes on him.

She tapped the water as Addorro's figure disappeared from her room, and murmured, “He really left me. It looks like he really has no feelings even a little for me.” Melanie grinned desperately, “What is there for me to expect from him? He never said I have to like him.”

Melanie sloped down and drowned her sorrow under the water.

While drying up her hair with a towel, basically she has a hair dryer but she used to dry her hair with a towel, she went downstairs to fetch something to bite in the kitchen right after she finished bathing. She hasn't even worn clothes yet, only a towel because her tummy was complaining loudly in hunger. She didn't expect that Addorro was still in her house, specifically in the kitchen and preparing noodles.

Melanie screamed as Addorro suddenly turned around and saw her get-up. “Why are you still here?”

Addorro frowned, “Before you bother to talk, why don't you go back to your room and put your clothes on. Don't try to show off your body on me. I will never be tempted to look at it.”

Addorro's words rang into Melanie's ego. So, instead of going back to her room, she leaned crossed-legs in the door.

“What are you doing? Why not go back yet?”

Melanie smirked, and mocked, “Didn't you say you won't be tempted with my body? Then I won't put my clothes on. I really wanted to see how long you can pretend.”

Addorro slammed the noodle cup on the table and stared at her, “Melanie, where is your shame going? You are with a man but you don't want to put your clothes on. Are you trying to seduce me? Or are you still drunk? Do you want me to throw you in the pool so you will wake up? Next time, if you can't behave like an educated woman, don't drink. Are you aware how kind of a woman you become when you're drunk? For Holly’s sake, you are worse than a whore.”

Melanie was stunned. She was really in awe to hear him say all those words. Worse than a w***e?

Shit! Did she really act that way?

She laughed with tears flowing slowly on her cheeks, “Addorro, this is the longest sentence that you spoke to me. Thank you. I am happy. Don't worry, in the future, I won't let you see me drinking and I will remember what you said.”

Melanie wiped her tears as she turned away, leaving Addorro with a regret on his face. He blamed himself for saying harsh words on her.

He sighed, “I hope what I said will wake her up.”
