24 Dreams Of You And Me

73) Round Two

"Sometimes, you just have to play the role of a fool to fool the fool who thinks they are fooling you."

Alyssa walked down the corridor of the motel of her nest where she was holding Levi.

She noticed quite a few soldiers missing from their appointed positions.

But her mood was joyous so she didn't pay it much mind. She walked straight to Levi's room.

The door knob jiggled open and Levi looked up from the book he was reading on the bed. "Look who's finally back." He sighed and tossed the book aside.

"I know you hate waiting. I can basically taste the abhorrence in that sentence." She chuckled.

Levi got up from the bed. "Alyssa, look, whatever you're planning to do with me, it's not gonna happen. Just let it go." He moved closer.

"I'll be the judge of that."

"What are you even getting out of this? This is ridiculous. You're so scared of Aradia that you'll do every single thing she says?"

"I'm not doing it cause I'm scared."

"Oh really? Because I remember your face when she called you out in that garden when touched some stupid herb of hers."

Alyssa let out a chuckle. "A stupid herb is certainly wasn't."

He frowned. "What was it?"

She grabbed him by his biceps and pushed him towards the bed. "C'mon, Levi, we can play the 20 questions sometime else. Why do you always bombard me with questions?"

"Because you never answer."

"Look, something I did, something important and big, was successful. Okay? I'm in a celebratory mood." She smiled slyly.

"What exactly did you accomplish?" He asked.

"Nothing you don't already know." She kissed him slowly and Levi reciprocated.

He grabbed her waist and pulled her in. Her hands went to his hair. They walked over to the bed, lips locked and Levi turned them around.

Alyssa fell back with Levi on top as he slowly left a trail of kisses down her body. He held her wrists over her head with one hand and she moaned in pleasure.

As he kept her distracted, his other hand went to the nightstand and grabbed the handcuffs he had placed there.

Silently praying that she wasn't paying attention, he picked them and brought them over to her hands.

"This feels so good.." She mumbled.

"Mhm."

"We should've done this way earlier."

He paused and glanced up at her. "I agree." Then he sat up. "But in a different context."

She opened her eyes and frowned. "What are you talking about?"

He got off her and stood up. "I should've done this way earlier."

Then she felt her hands constrained. She brought them in front to see them in cuffs.

Her jaw dropped. "What the f*ck have you done!?" She screamed.

He sighed in content. "I found a way to stop you."

"You'll pay for this." She sat up, her eyes flaring golden. "Just because I can't do anything, doesn't mean the others can't!"

"Who?"
