What should one do if devil saves your life? You can't ignore him , like I was doing. You can't become besties with him because...duh, he is the devil You see my dilemma now.
Brax Hunter saved my life and then walked away like the obnoxious freak he was. I should have caught up and thanked him, be done with this but no I was stupid and I just ignored him.
Why did he save my life?
It took me three days to gather courage and ask Parker what should I do about this whole thing?
"Go and talk to him." He said and i was shocked.
"Isn't he the bad boy you should ask me to stay away from?"
"I doubt you will like the guy who threatened you and your sibling." He sounded confident and I felt guilty.
Because there was no denying I was attracted to the guy. Who wouldn't? He was a personification of handsome and sexy. But he was anti list, he was so much like Lucas, way better looking than him but not nice anyway. He defied almost half the list of now and for my benefit, I have to stay away from him. But this was not happening now.
So I decided to take up Parker's advice and visit him on the fourth day. But the big questions being, where do I find him?
I visited his secret smoking spot, the pub incase he was drinking there, the beach just to see if he was surfing. I had a mini success when I found his friends were on the beach. All the guys looked kind of dangerous and if one of them didn't talked to me himself, I would have walked away.
"Hey, Parker's sister." I looked back scared that they might kill me now.
"Yes?"
"Brax is stuck at his home." The boy with lot of tattoos on his arm said.
"So?" I pretended to play cool.
"So, you might want to kiss him again after that emergency mouth to mouth." He grinned at me.
Holy crap, he did give me mouth to mouth. I was stuck between puking and fan girling. Only if he didn't smoke.
"And you are telling me like I know his house." Lame Bethany, really lame.
And he knew it too because he chuckled at my attempt to know where Brax was.
He gave me the address nevertheless which was close to Parker's work place. And I found out the reason for this, S&M was owned by Brax's grandmother. Why was he there hitting my brother then?
Getting address is one thing, walking to the hell on your own two feet is another. But I did walk over and contemplating for a few minutes I used the door bell. After few moments of waiting , the door opened and I looked up in shock.
I think I transported from hell to heaven because Brax Hunter stood there in just his pajamas.
Do you get it people, shirtless!
Reminder of the tattoo hit me and I stopped ogling him.
"Stupid girls." He muttered as he noticed me eyeing him.
"Thank you." I mumble out stupidly.
"What?" He was confused at my words, even I was.
"I mean thank you for saving my life and not for calling me stupid."
"Whatever, is that all?" He asked coldly.
"Umm..yeah that will be all." Jerk, rude, ill mannered wasn't he going to invite me in.
Not like I wanted to be invited in.
But boy did he look hot, hot , hot. Why was that? And then it hit me why, he had a stubble on his face and that suited him way to much for my preference. Shit, I wanted to kiss him.
Go away dirty thoughts.
Stick to the list.
Suddenly the phone ring broke my trance.
"Umm...excuse me, Aaron is calling ." And why did I just tell him who was calling me?
He grunted and was about to shut the door on my face but I gave him raised eyebrow and somehow by some miracle he stopped.
"Hey Aaron."
"No, I haven't seen the sea shell shop. I didn't even knew about it." I pleaded with my eyes for Brax to keep the door opened.
"What, now? Umm..okay great I will meet you in half an hour." I added excitedly .
Sea shell shop sounded nice and so was Aaron. After he hung up, I looked up at angry looking Brax.
"Okay, so thank you and I am also sorry for the punch, really. I am not violent person but sometimes , really sometimes it happens. If it makes you happy, my friends said it was bad that I punched a hot guy on vacation."
Shit, shit, I called him hot out loud, didn't I?
A smirk formed on his face.
"Okay, gotta go, meet people, see things." I rambled and started walking backwards like a klutz.
Obviously, there was step down and I missed that and was about to fall down. Focus on word about.
Because before I could fall and hit my head, Brax stepped forward and encircling his arms around my waist pulled me up, away from the fall but closer to his oh so inviting lips. I started blinking rapidly.
"I am starting to think I make you nervous." He whispered in a husky tone.
My heart was being adversely affected by his voice, his proximity threatening to break of my chest.
"N-no, let me go." I stammered not sure if I wanted him to let go.
"As if, its time I got even for the punch." I gulped in fear on his words.
God, I was dead, please prepare that suite in heaven now.
But I guess heaven was right here, as Brax's lips crashed to mine. He started kissing me and I was mentally freaking out.
Was this a dream?
Will I be punished for breaking the rule of the list? He is so against the list, he had beard, another rule on the list!
But in that moment, it was all becoming a blur as his kiss deepened and my nerves were electrocuted. There was fire, where he touched, on my waist, on my lips, in my heart and burning was pleasant. I kissed him back with all the fervour.
No one has kissed me like this, not Lucas, not even in my dreams. I could feel the tingle as he lightly nipped on my lip and completely owned my every breath that second. I let out a sharp breath as he broke the kiss.
"Fuck, I was right. You really are Sugar." He muttered looking at me with mild anger but lot of awe.
I was not sure what to think or what the hell just happened?
