Chapter 4 His Touch

• Nerina pov
• I groaned softly as I opened my eyes; the bed felt incredibly soft and comfortable, and I had literally experienced the best sleep I had in quite some time, which was surprising.
• I stretched my arms, opened my eyes wider, and then I saw him. He was sitting by a chair beside the bed , and just like last time he looked dashing as ever , the black shirt he wore moulded perfectly against his body enhancing his muscles, his hair was styled and combed back, which made him look dangerous and powerful.
• My ogling came to halt when memories flooded back: the club, the interruption while I was dancing, the men who had shown interest in me, and then everything faded into darkness.
• I observed him as he regarded me with a stoic expression, not a single word escaping his lips. Looking around, I realized we were in a suite that was both beautiful and luxurious. Then, I glanced down at the clothes I was wearing and let out a scream. I was wearing a black t-shirt that i knew didn't belong to me , in any way.
• The realization struck me hard.
• What was I doing here?
• Who was this man?
• Why was I on his bed?
• I quickly stood up from the bed and backed up against the wall, staring at the man, who seemed unfazed by my reaction.
• “Where am I? Who are you? What am I doing here?” I asked him, glancing at the bed and wondering if I had somehow slept with him without any memory of it. But that seemed really strange; I hadn’t had any drinks last night.
• “Are you done?” he asked, his voice deep and steady, sending a shiver through me, though I was too frightened to acknowledge it. He was incredibly handsome, with his hair slicked back and striking grey eyes, and his toned skin suggested he spent a lot of time in the sun.
• “Done checking me out?” he said again, raising his eyebrows at me.
• I offered him a warm smile as I walked toward the door.
• I apologize… I think I need to leave; it was nice getting to know you, I said as I walked toward the nearest door and opened it, only to find it led to the bathroom. I rolled my eyes and turned in the opposite direction, climbing the bed with the intention of crossing to the other side of the room.
• All the while, he just sat there, watching me without moving, his eyes following my every move.
• I turned to him and gave him a fake smile; all that mattered was that I needed to get out of here. When I reached the door and twisted the knob, I discovered it was locked.
• “Could you please… um… Help me out here?” I asked him, trying to give him a pleasant smile, only to see him still looking at me, slightly amused.
• “Oh, here’s the card; you can come and get it,” he said as he pulled the card from his pocket, and my eyes widened.
• “I… you know… you can throw it over here, and I… will see how I can get it,” I said in a shy tone, but he just sat there, watching me.
• Something about this man filled me with fear. First of all, he was the largest man I have ever seen. I couldn't remember anything from yesterday which was strange.
• “If you want it, you just have to come and get it,” he replied, and I rolled my eyes as I walked over to him, trying to hide the fact that I was scared inside.
• Just as I was about to take it from his outstretched hand, he pulled it back, and I looked up to see a grin on his face.
• “Not so fast; where do you think you’re going?” he asked, and I gave him a fake sweet smile.
• “Home. It was a pleasure spending time with you, but I have a cat at home waiting for me,” I said, lying through my teeth, knowing very well that there wasn’t a cat waiting for me; it was just me and my mom.
• Besides i don't remember anything from yesterday which was strange
• Not that she would care if I went missing for weeks; she only cared about the money I brought home at the end of the day, and nothing more.
• Then he stood up, and I watched him rise to his full height, which seemed to be six feet eight. This man was a giant, and a smirk graced his lips.
• “Seemed like I didn’t introduce myself, little mate, but you wouldn’t be going anywhere,” he said with a broad smile, and then I panicked.
• “What... look, I don’t remember how I got here, but I think I’m done here, so hand over the keys, Squidward, before I lose my temper,” I rolled my eyes at him, stretching my hands out to get the key from him.
• “What the hell did you call me?” he growled, his eyes flashing with color, making me take a step back in fear.
• What the hell? This guy literally growled like an animal; he sounded like one, and it scared me. What scared me the most was that when I took a step back, he took one forward, and I forced a smile.
• “Squidward, like the cartoon in SpongeBob,” I replied, and in an instant, he picked me up and slammed me softly against the wall. My eyes widened as I looked at him in fear.
• But that wasn't what scared me, it was the way ,my body reacted to his touch, the moment his hands touch my skin, i felt a shiver go up my body, the feeling of pins and needles traversing across my skin like little electrodes transferring live current through my vein, i was being pulled towards him , it felt like my body was calling for him.
• But then i snapped to reality
• How had he moved so fast?
• “You’re driving me insane…” he whispered in my ear, his husky voice filling the air. It did something to me, having his body pressed against mine.
• “Don’t ever lose that tone with me again, unless you want to get bent over and punished,” he threatened, and my eyes widened as he let me go.
• “Fuck,” he said as he rushed toward the door, literally opening it without the key and slamming it behind him.
• What the hell just happened?
• I stood there and i knew i was turned on, but i shooked my head as i walked over to the door and tried to pulled it open, but that fucker had locked me inside here.
• Then I started pounding, no matter how much I yelled out for him to let me go, I heard nothing.
• Then I decided to do what was going to pissed him off and get him to open the door, I trashed the room, and destroyed everything on my path.
