Chapter 22

Eissen's POV

Yashveer turned on the lights, and the white glow illuminated the entire room. The dark sky outside the windows was already swallowing the sun as night closed in. Cold sweat formed on my forehead and palms as I gripped the cotton fabric of the robe covering my body.

I swallowed hard, trying to ease the lump in my throat and steady my breathing. My chest rose and fell rapidly, my heart beating erratically. This wasn’t the first time I would be naked in front of him. He had already seen me in the bathroom, doing something I’d rather not remember. To be honest, that was far worse.

Desperation had brought me to this moment. I could have said no and walked away, yet I chose this situation over the safest decision.

His brushes clattered as he set up his canvas and the materials he needed for painting.

"When you’re ready, Eissen, you can lie on the bed. Just cover your private parts with the bedsheets."

"Ah, oo, sige," I replied.

"Don’t be nervous, Eissen. I’m not going to murder you or anything," Yashveer mused.

Taking a deep breath, I untied the lace of the bathrobe and let the black fabric slide off my shoulders and onto the floor with a soft thud. I then climbed onto the soft bed.

Hinanda na ni Yashveer ang dalawang unan kung saan ko itutungkod ang aking siko. Inayos ko ang unan at saka ko inilagay ang aking siko at pinatong ang ulo sa kamay ng nakatuko kong siko bago ako nag-side view paharap sa direksyon ni Yashveer. Samantalang, ang isa kong kamay ay nakahawak sa bedsheets sa baba na ang tinatakpan ay ang pribadong parte lamang ang aking katawan.

Topless si Yashveer na nakatayo sa harap ng kanyang canvas, hawak ng isang kamay niya ang palette at ang isa naman ay ang brush.

The drumming of my heart reverberated through my throat as Yashveer's eyes focused on me. My body shook in irregular spasms as his gaze shifted from me to his canvas and back again.

I knew Yashveer was just studying me—my whole body—because I was his model for the day. However, unwelcome feelings began to grow and take over my senses.

Yashveer's intense and serious eyes stirred something within me. As time passed, I felt increasingly edgy and nervous under his gaze. His stare was just too grim and impossible to ignore.

Behind Yashveer, a large glass window framed the setting sun as the dark sky gradually replaced the bright and colorful one, yet he still hadn't finished. My arms began to go numb, and my neck started to stiffen.

I wasn't sure if Yashveer noticed how my hand, resting under my head, was trembling as the numbness spread through my arm. Then, just a moment later, my head fell onto the soft mattress.

Humigpit ang pagkakahawak ko sa bedsheets na tanging nakatakip sa aking ibabang parte nang maramdaman ko ang pagkabuhay nito. Sh*t! Sh*t! Not now!

My mind wasn't helping at all, as it was toying with me while I looked at Yashveer. I don’t know if I’m imagining things or just being delusional, but it feels like Yashveer is looking at my body as if he’s devouring me with his eyes. Perhaps because of my awakened desire and l*stful need for Yashveer, my mind is playing tricks on me.

Yashveer immediately put down his palette and brush and sauntered toward me. Yet, I raised a hand, as if to stop him from coming any closer. I can't let him know that I’m aroused just by his gaze!

"Are you okay, Eissen? Should we take a break? Want some water?" he asked, concerned.

I shook my head. "O-okay lang ako," sinilip ko si Yashveer na nasa isang hakbang lang ang layo sa aking paa.
