Chapter 103
What Sasha had said burdened me to my sleep. To make matters hopeless, Angel had gone to the club without me.
He was probably annoyed because of the previous day, when I failed to understand or rather believe what he was saying to me.
He couldn’t possibly desire me. I wanted him to but did he even know what it meant to truly be attracted to someone?
I went down for breakfast but was heartbroken to find out that Angel wasn’t joining us. Caspian was absent too because he had Sasha over. Camilo looked broken. Knight was suspicious of our mood and Florentine was painfully silent as we ate.
I couldn’t stop thinking about the chances of the same thing that happened to Camilo happening to me.
She was to meet her brother today yet Caspian made her sleep over at Florentine’s so he could have the room to himself and Sasha.
I simply couldn’t imagine her pain.
I didn’t want to spend time with the ladies after breakfast so I walked back to my room hoping to bury my fears in my bed.
As I walked back, I kept battling myself within, stuck between the decision to go back to my room or check on Angel with the intention of seeing if he had any stripper over and I chose the latter.
My breath was heavy as I walked through the hallway that led to his room. There were guards at each point but they didn’t stop me. I hoped it was a good sign that he wasn’t having any one over.
I kept swallowing hard as if it would down my fears but it proved abortive.
I was halfway towards the hallway when Angel’s door opened and he stepped out of his room.
I froze on the spot looking at the god-like man making his way to me. A glint of curiosity appeared on his face but it faded quickly as it came.
What do I do?
I knew I would be speechless if he got to me. I felt embarrassed for the reason I was here.
His steps decreased when he was some distance away from me so I did what my mind had been yelling at me to do.
I turned away and without stopping for a second I began walking.
Of course he knew I was there to see him but he didn’t know the exact reason and I didn’t plan on telling him the truth. I felt his steps closer so I hastened up my steps.
Please don’t call me, please don’t….
I begged within. I was embarrassed already.
“Thea….” I paused hearing Angel call me. I shut my eyes tightly and bit my lips. I heard his steps near untill he stood behind me. “Thea?” He called again and I turned slowly to face him but I regretted it immediately.
My heart was pounding loud against my ears and I quivered at his piercing gaze on me.
A smirk appeared on his face and he parted his lips to say something. “Why are you running?” He asked not hiding the fact that he was amused.
I pinched my dress before folding it in my palms. My eyes kept wavering looking from side to side.
“Do you have anything to say?” He asked again giving me quizzical looks.
I tried to say something but I pinned my lips together and gulped hard.
“No.” I quickly said and turned my back against him.NôvelDrama.Org: owner of this content.
“Wait….”
I heard him call but I took to my heels walking as fast as I could but when I heard him coming after me I picked up my pace and ran instead.
Holf had given me a worried gaze when he saw me in a hurry. I shut the door behind me and quickly sank myself into my bed hoping that Angel didn’t come after me.
Just what was I thinking? So stupid!
I scolded myself.
I waited for a while to hear any sound on my door but nothing came. I let out a sigh of relief when I realized that he wasn’t coming but at the same time I felt disappointed and even more stupid that he didn’t come.
I avoided everyone by staying in my room till noon when Camilo barged into my room.
“My brother is here!” She said excitedly and I rose up from my bed.
“Really?” I asked excited as well. I was happy for her. Knowing her brother was here seemed to brighten up her mood after what Caspian had put her through.
“Yes. Come with me Thea. I’ll like you to meet him.” She said holding my hand.
She led me to one of the rooms in the mansion, where the men usually hung out alone.
Caspian was already there waiting for her as well as Florentine.
“I’m nervous Thea.” She said to me once Caspian and Florentine went in. I smiled at her and rubbed her cheek with my palm.
“You’ll be fine.” I assured her and saw her eyes water.
After taking a deep breath she finally walked into the room and I followed behind her.
“Camilo….” A man stood from the couch staring at her in shock. He was tall, muscular like any other gang man I’ve seen. His beards were laced perfectly over his skin. He had the same hair colour as Camilo and the resemblance was there. He was as good looking as Camilo but he had that dangerous aura around him.
He certainly lived very roughly.
“Theo….” Camilo called her voice cracky from tears. She was already tearing up and despite how tough Theo looked, I could see he was trying hard to hold back his tears.
Camilo ran into his arms and they both hugged each other passionately.
“I’m sorry Camilo, I’m so sorry.” He kept saying while he hugged her and finally a drop of tear fell off his eyes.
I sniffed back my tear. Seeing them made me emotionap. Caspian tried not to look at the siblings but he had guilt written over his face.
As much as I observed that Camilo had feelings for Caspian I also observed that Caspian had a thing for her as well but then why bring Sasha and hurt her that way? Was he trying to push her away?
My thoughts wandered to Angel and the other day he held me against the wall. The things he said to me….
I didn’t want to have my assumptions wrong. He probably meant to say he wanted my body. I knew I had an unnaturally wet and tight pussy enough to drive any man wild. Sparrow hinted on it the night we crossed paths at the club.
‘The spell between her thighs’
I chuckled bitterly. That was it. My feelings for Angel was wrong, Florentine warned me and yet I kept falling beyond my control.
“This is my friend Thea.” Camilo’s voice jolted me back to reality.
I exchanged a greeting with him and he was grateful that Camilo had a friend to keep her company.
He also appreciated Florentine and thanked Caspian for letting him meet her.
I could see how much Caspian had humbled him. He still quivered before him even when uttering his words.
We soon gave the siblings their time and space to catch up with each other. Caspian had left us walking in a different direction while I walked behind Florentine.
Curiosity was eating me till I could no longer hold myself back.
“Florentine.” I called and she turned to look at me. She gave me a quizzical look and I was hesitant.
“I just wanted to know… Did Angel return home with a stripper last night?”
I bit my lip after my words but I needed to say it. Her eyes twitched at my question and I knew I had just exposed myself before her.
“… And why do you ask?”
“I… uh… It’s nothing, forget I said that.” I replied and tried to walk in front of her but she held me back.
“Don’t take me for a fool Thea.” Her voice was serious and I felt nervous. “I know you have feelings for Angel.”
My lips parted slightly in shock at her words.
I was being obvious?
“You don’t need to admit it or lie about it.” She shut my defense even before it came. She didn’t look mad as against my expectation and it tickled my curiosity.
“You want to know if he did come back with one? Then follow me.” She said holding my hand but I slipped it away from her.
“No! I don’t think I want to find out.” I said feeling hurt already. If she wanted me to find out for myself then she obviously wanted me to feel the pain seeing Angel together with someonelse.
“You’re coming or I’m telling Angel about your feelings for him.”
Was that a threat? I knew it was and I couldn’t let that happen if the feeling was not mutual. I nodded bitterly and followed her.
We got to Angel’s room and the guards opened the door. My eyes were already moist as I dreaded the sight of another lady in there.
The moment we stepped in, I felt light headed and my eyes quickly darted around the room in search for someone other than Angel but instead my eyes fell on Angel, bare in the upper body but I gasped in shock seeing the white bandage around his shoulder and the blood stain on it
