25-The Hot Brothers
After Zane left without considering my feelings, I was pretty much left with no option but to stand at the door and look at my dark room.
“I cannot even ask Helel for help now. I declined his help yesterday so brutally that even if I ask him now, he will not come to help me,” I let out a sigh and shook my head at myself for not talking to Helel about why I didn’t let him in last night. I guess I relied too much on Zane.
But that was the thing. I don’t know how and what he did, but he managed to tame me according to his beliefs.
“I will go sleep in the living room,” I decided as if being in a living room would do me any good. I couldn’t even walk over to my bed to grab my pillow. Once I had successfully left my room and walked over to the living room, I sat down on the couch while looking around suspiciously.
“What was I thinking? This place looks even scarier,” I whispered to myself as I stared at the enormous windows.
“Maybe I will watch some TV and that will help me?” I said, looking for the remote controller when my eyes landed on a shadow approaching the living room.
“Oh, shit!” I didn’t even wait for the terror to sink in and let out the loudest yelp ever. My hands were flying to my mouth as I watched the shadow turn into a figure and the figure become recognizable.
“What are you doing here?” It was Akin in black shorts and a black shirt. I had never seen him without a suit before, so looking at his strong collarbones and muscles gave me an idea of his muscular body.
“I am watching a TV!” I looked around and came up with an excuse after my eyes landed on the TV before me.
“Just the turned-off TV?” He raised his perfectly thick brow and tapped his foot on the floor while waiting for my response.
“I know you are afraid of sleeping in your room. But how long can you continue doing that?” He walked over to the couch in front of me and sat down on it.
“You are right, but every time I think I can do it, I just cannot. I fail miserably.” I sat decently because my shorts were way too short. Flashing my big booty to him was not what I wanted to do.
“So you are comfortable here?” he questioned, and I shook my head, “I have some work pending, so I will be staying up all night. Go to sleep. I will work here and keep an eye out for any monsters for you.” He casually said it without thinking it. would make me feel some sort of way. I gave him a nod and watched him walk away to grab his laptop and files.
It just felt weird whenever he showed care. He wouldn’t carry any expressions on his face, but his words were enough to satisfy me. This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.
When he returned, he actually came back with more than just his stuff. He had grabbed my pillow and blanket from my room for me.
“Thank you,” I said, watching him set the pillow behind me and then cover me with the blanket. He sat down, and soon he was working. I couldn’t help but lie down and keep staring at him. Watching him work made my heart flutter.
He was so unique, and his chiseled body was to die for. I
wonder how many abs he has. Must be 8. He is pretty tall. All these sweet thoughts and imaginations made me want to sleep better.
It was safe to say I felt like a child that night. I didn’t even wake up to make sure he was there. I just knew he was.
The morning arrived, and I woke up at the sound of the big clock striking 8 a.m. from the corner of the living room. Akin was still sitting on the sofa with his head resting on his back, his legs spread, and his arms comfortably resting on the sides. He must have fallen asleep here after finishing work, and, because he had promised to look out for any monsters, he didn’t leave.
“Good morning!” Helel came from behind the couch, so he only saw Akin. “Did you sleep here tonight?” he continued to ask Akin, who raised his face and rubbed his eyes to wake up completely.
“What are you doing here?” It was then that Helel saw me on the couch, steadily getting up and hugging my pillow.
“It is okay. I asked her to sleep here so that she could sleep in peace,” Akin sleepily answered for me. I could not tell what happened overnight, but I felt like I was crushing on Akin.
“Oh! You should ha—,” Helel stopped in midway once he looked at Akin. Of course, he didn’t want to speak to me in front of his brother.
“It’s been raining since 4 am. I think we should go for a run,” Akin gathered his files while talking to his brother, who was looking outside the windows. It was indeed gloomy and
raining cats and dogs outside.
“Oh! My brother wants to go for a run with me. That will be exciting.” Helel already looked interested.
“I will take care of them and then join you outside,” Akin stated before he walked back to his study, leaving the two of us alone outside.
“I didn’t want to bother you because I’d already told you I’d be fine.” I immediately began explaining why I hadn’t asked Helel for help last night.
“I don’t care. I love my bed and space a lot, so I am glad I was not asked to stay on the couch. Akin usually works at night, so I guess it is a good idea that he stays here while you sleep on the couch.” It was just that Helel didn’t even look a little jealous that hurt me. What was it about these brothers not caring and being jealous of who their mate was spending time with?
“Let’s go,” soon Akin came back, and the two left for the outside. I was about to head back inside, but then something made me want to look at them. Peering out the window with a pillow tucked under my arm, I saw them taking off their clothes one by one.
