Cursed By The Moon Goddess.

Chapter 20

Evelyn's POV

I was in my Winnie the Pooh puffy PJs currently packing up the clothes I bought, also waiting for my mate to arrive. I had a request to make.
I only hoped that he would do something about it.

I was done with the tops when someone knocked.
"Coming " I put away the rest of the clothes in the closet before answering the door.
I opened it to reveal a tired looking Adonis holding his jacket and tie.
I still wonder why he bothers to put on a suit just to walk to his office.
Men...

I stepped out of the way and he quietly walked in, his shoulders sagged a bit.
He dumped himself on the bed and started tugging at his buttons.
Meanwhile I was still at the doorway watching his every move, mindless of the still open door.

"The door " he reminded without looking at me.
He even sounded tired.
"Oh yeah. Sorry " I said, shutting the door.
I walked to the bed, a bit confused about what to do at the moment.
He was still mindlessly tugging at the same button.

Walking over to him, a bit scared not knowing what to expect, I swatted his hand away gently, ignoring the spark I felt immediately I touched him.
"Let me help you with that, you've been attacking that same button for seconds "
I started unbuttoning his shirt with slightly shaking hands, avoiding his gaze which scared me while it lasted before he finally looked away.
I felt a bit of red stain my cheeks when I discovered that he was wearing nothing under the shirt, thank God he wasn't looking at me.
It reminded me of what I nearly did in the morning had he not woken up.

"There " I said as soon as I was done with the last visible button, the rest hidden beneath the black  suit pants.
"Thanks " with that, he stood up and walked to the closet.
I shrugged, still watching him till he disappeared behind the door.
I dropped my weight on the bed allowing my eye to close while I waited for him.
I still had to discuss something important with him.

"Wake up, I need to lie down "
I lazily opened my eyes to find stoic faced Adonis standing in front of me wearing a grey top with an 'I love my bed' inscription and loose grey pants.
"Pardon? " I already forgot why he woke me up in the first place.
"I need to sleep now " he said casually.
"You want to sleep on the bed? " I raised a brow.
"I almost broke my neck on the couch, you can warm it up if you want to. Besides, it's your turn today " he said in a bored tone placing his hands on his narrow waist.
I sat up immediately. "We never made any agreement concerning the bed. I can't sleep on the couch! "
"Suite yourself, but tonight, I want to sleep on my bed so move over or head to the couch " he said with a scowl pasted on his face.
What did I ever do to this guy, trying to send me to the couch!
I'll make him regret thinking about joining me on the bed. Did I forget to mention that I'm a bad sleeper.
Don't get me wrong, I'm happy to have my mate join me in bed, even Emily will be overwhelmed to hear it, but how dare he suggest that I sleep on the couch.

"Evelyn, I'm waiting " he reminded bringing me out of my reverie.
With a scoff,  I shifted a bit leaving him a tiny space.
"Evelyn " he warned.
I ignored him, laid back, widely spread my legs over the bed and closed my eyes facing the ceiling and swallowing the urge to laugh.
"Evelyn Anderson " he snarled.
I ignored him again.

I opened my eyes when I didn't hear him speak again.
Sitting up, I wondered where he went to.
Just then, he appeared from the bathroom carrying a cup of water.
"What are you gonna do with that? " I asked with a raised eyebrow.
"What do you think? " he said with a smirk.
"If you pour that on me, I'll dry myself with the sheets and wet the bed. " I said victoriously.
I was surprised when his smirk didn't disappear.
"Wrong. Watch me "
He disappeared into the closet and emerged seconds later with my favorite expensive designer shoe which I just got this afternoon.
"Are you kidding me? "
"I'm gonna fill this beautiful shoe with water if you don't shift at the count of three "
"Are you sick or something ? " I asked in disbelief.
"One"
"You wouldn't dare? "
"Two " he said bending the cup.
"Wait! " I scooted away.
"More "
I shifted again already approaching the edge of the bed.
"A little bit more "
I obeyed already fuming with anger 
"Perfect "
He returned the shoe and returned with the cup.
Dropping it on the table next to lamp, he settled in, facing me.
"Leaving a cup of water next to the lamp can be deadly " I muttered, glaring at him.
"It's not a cup of water " he said sleepily.
"Pardon? "
"It's empty " he said casually.
"Of course no.....Wait what?!  You tricked me! " my anger hit the roof.
" I need to sleep " he closed his eyes.
"How dare you?!"
Grabbing my pillow, I left the bed and walked to the couch.
"Seriously? I thought you didn't want to sleep on the couch " he mocked sitting up.
"Go to hell " I said settling in.
He chuckled.
"Evelyn... "
"Goodnight Adonis " I said in a tone of finality.
He chuckled again.
"Goodnight, sleep tight " he replied with another chuckle laying down.
