Last Goodnight

~°Chapter 8°~

I awake bright and early. I stretch out and take note that Dan is no longer at my side. He has been generous enough to leave a towel and a change of work out clothes for me on the chair next to the bed. I make my way down to the first floor where the shower stalls are.

I turn the faucet completely to hot water and allow the water to wash away what I feel is grim all over my body. I'm in the process of rinsing the remains of the conditioner in my hair when I hear a sound from the doors out front.

From the corner of my eyes I see movement by the door before Sebastian barges into the shower stall in nothing but a towel wrapped around his lower frame. He's barefoot and shirtless. My eyes widen in surprise. His skin is inked with tattoos marking his atomach. Of course he would have abs. If I thought he looked good before, it was an understatement compared to now. He was practically naked. He suddenly flicks his eyes over to me. I squeal and attempt to cover my privates but even I know he has gotten an eye full when his mouth falls open in surprise. 

"What the hell!" I call him out.

"Jeez I swear I didn't know you were here. I was coming to shower and the door wasn't locked." He quickly defends himself, eyes still lingering on me.

"Stop looking! Hand me my towel!" I demand urgently as I reach blindly behind me to turn the faucet off.

He throws me my towel which smacks me in the face. He finally peels his eyes away, giving me his back as I wrap the towel around my body.

"It's not like I haven't seen anything before. You are overreacting." He says off hand which in turn offends me to the max. 

"You're right. You probably have seen other women before but not me! You haven't seen my body before and that is why I am overreacting." I say defensively. 

I hear him snicker as I fume past him. I make a point of slamming the door. I don't think he would be flattered if someone walked in on him. I snort. Who was I kidding, he would probably flaunt his package around.

"Did you have a good sleep?" Dan's asks casually as I take a plate of eggs and bacon and sit next to him. I notice Damion has yet to make an appearance. He's probably still sleeping. 

I take a gulp of the OJ and nod my head at him. He raises a brow. "You were shuffling the majority of the night and calling out Sebastian's name." 

I instantly choke on my bacon and struggle to get control of the coughing fit that prevents me from answering. Dan snickers and pats my back until I am breathing normally. I groan and place my head down on the counter so that he doesn't see my expression. I won't be able to live this down.

"Do you want to talk about it?" He encourages gently.

"No, not really. I swear I wasn't even thinking about him last night. I was mad at him for thinking I can't defend myself and mad at Damion for just being his stupid self. It's hard to work around alpha males who want to control everything all the time." I sigh heavily. 

Dan places his hand on my lap. "It won't get easier especially because we care about you Adina. We know you are a strong, young, independent bright girl but you have to see that from our side we fear you could get hurt."

"But Dan I-"

"We love you Adina and maybe one day you will understand. Wez and myself would give our lives for you." 

I feel my eyes start to water but it's interrupted when Damion strides in arrogantly and picks up a plate and sits himself a few feet a way from us.

"Do you have a stick up your ass?" Dan asks him bluntly causing me to snort at his remark.

Damion turns to face us with a hard expression outlining his features. It makes me feel a little bad for him.
