Panicked, with my heart beating fast, feeling like I had run a marathon, I got up from the bed abruptly, which made me dizzy. I tried to calm down as much as possible and understand what was happening to me, but my head felt empty.
"You woke up." Why does that voice sound familiar to me?
I turned around and saw the person I last saw a few months ago. How is this possible.
"Maximilian? What am I doing here? What are you doing here? Where are we?" I asked him, looking towards him.
"Isabella, I saved you from an attack yesterday. Two men attacked you in front of a nightclub, and luckily I was there, but you got hit in the head, maybe that's why you can't remember anything. I brought you to my mansion, but it's a bit far from your city." How can I not remember? The last thing I remember is that my parents wanted to force me to marry Damien, but I don't remember more than that.
I don't understand what's happening to me. Do I have amnesia?
"Maximilian, thank you for your help. If it weren't for you, who knows what they would have done to me." I answered him honestly. Max saved me from the attack and I'm grateful to him.
"Don't worry, it's nothing. Are you hungry?" Now that he mentioned it, I am more than just hungry.
"I'm starving." We started laughing together.
"Come." He pulled the sheet away from my body but my eyes widened when I saw that I was half naked. Only in my bra and thong.
Heat spread over my entire body and I quickly covered myself with the sheet without looking at him.
"You're perfect." Did he have to say that.
"Max..."
"I'll get you my shirt to wear, because the dress you wore yesterday is no longer wearable." He said and went to his closet?
Is this his room?
I put on his shirt after I moved my bra, and he lifted me into his arms. I wanted to tell him to put me down but he wouldn't let me. He told me to relax. How could I relax with a man like this?
He put me on the kitchen island, instead of putting me down to sit on a chair like any normal person would.
"Max, I don't think this is a good idea. What if someone sees me and gets mad because I'm sitting here?" I asked him a little worriedly. I don't know who else is in this mansion.
He put his hands on either side of my body, grabbed my ass and pulled me towards him. We were literally inches away from kissing.
I think I'm as red as a pepper, not to mention how hot I am.
What's happening to me.
"Unfortunately for you and fortunately for me, this is my mansion and I live alone. Apart from the security guards, and maids, who are not here right now, there's only you and me." A shiver ran through my whole body.
Is it fear?
"But... how... I'm.." I didn't know what to say to him. He's too close to me and I can't think normally.
Does he want to kiss me?
I don't think I'm ready.
I closed my eyes not knowing if he was going to kiss me, but nothing happened. I soon opened my eyes and realized that he had moved away from me completely and was standing by the fridge looking at the groceries.
What an embarrassment.
He did it on purpose.
"Did you think I was going to kiss you?" He looked at me and asked. I wanted to get out of here.
