Blood Legacy (Rewritten)

31. Annoyingly sexy

I let out a displeased groan, stirred from my sleep and seriously aggravated by the incessant buzzing sound coming from somewhere closeby, grating on my nerves as I blew out a sigh and raised my face from the soft and warm pillow, hazily looking around.

Strands of long brown hair covered my face, tickling my nose as I tried to blow them away a few times before finally raising a hand to push them away, instantly squinting at the bright natural light that greeted me.

"What the fuck is this shit? Somebody turn these goddamned lights off," I groggily mumbled under my breath, throwing my face back in the pillow to let out an exasperated scream for being woken up in such a crappy way before finally flipping on my back, my brows quickly furrowing upon noticing the unfamiliar ceiling first.

What the fuck?

I suddenly shot up into a sitting position as if the pillow had grown spikes, confusion clouding my mind before my gaze fell on the very naked male that stood in a doorway, his private parts barely covered by a white fluffy towel loosely wrapped around his waist.

A sharp and short scream tore through my throat, instinctually gathering the comforter closer to my chest as I warily looked at him.

"What the fuck are you doing? What the fuck am I doing here?"

"Good morning to you too, beautiful," Nathan answered with an amused smirk, earning himself a narrowed glower from me.

"What happened? Why am I here? And where is this "here"?" I fired back those questions with a deadly serious tone, leaving no room for bullshitting around as I pointedly eyed him.

"Calm down, nothing happened. I swear. You're safe," He raised his palms in a surrendering manner, however making me scoot backwards between the fluffy pillows as I noticed him advance towards the bed.

The action didn't go unnoticed by him either, his movements slowing down a notch before he abruptly stopped at a relatively safe distance.

"We didn't do anything, I didn't touch you, you just fainted so I brought you here, to rest," He calmly explained, keeping his palms up.

"And this is my place, actually," He added, making me take a casual look at the large and spacious room I was in, taking in the darker hues of its walls and furniture before my gaze landed on him again, just noticing the way those tiny droplets that fell from his damp hair trailed over his naked and very muscular torso.

I blinked and looked away, awkwardly clearing out my throat.

"Why did you bring me here though, and not my place?" I quietly asked after a moment, surprised to notice him coming closer before taking a seat on the bed, his lips parting as he was about to say something when that buzzing sound suddenly came back with a vengeance, making his face contort with annoyance.

"Can you answer that first? It's been driving me fucking nuts,"

My brows furrowed with confusion, staring at him for a moment before my gaze followed his line of sight, surprised to notice the way my phone kept vibrating over the nightstand, persistently showing my sister's name.

Fuck.

I quickly scrambled to retrieve it and answer as I knew that she must've been freaking out by now.
