Martin's POV
"Hey, kitty, don't you know that ladies shouldn't curse?" I smirked.
I was just messing around with her, but I was taken aback when she suddenly burst out of the bathroom.
As my eyes darted to her body, I found she was only dressed in a small towel. I looked at her long tanned legs and curvy figure I'm not a perv, the girl is just too hot
"I guess I'm not a lady then," she said, staring me down.
I tried to get closer to her, expecting her to back away or try to avoid me, but I was stunned when she stood firm and challenged me to get closer.
That's exactly what I did.
Her shiny blue eyes looked up at me with...amusement as I stood so close to her.
"Do you have any idea what you're doing?"
"I'm just checking if you are a lady or not."
"And how are you planning to do that?"
"Ladies can't resist my charm," I murmured next to her ear; we were standing so close at this point that I could feel her breath on my cheek.
"Is that true? That just proves I'm not a lady."
"Let's check," I murmured, and my whole body felt like it was on fire. I raised my hand and caressed Laila's cheeks, running my thumb over her plump lips, which were so soft. almost like silk.
For a brief second, I become engrossed in the moment, forgetting that we're just messing around, and my gaze darts from her enormous eyes to her lips. I began to lean in, but she raised her hands to my chest before our lips could meet, preventing me from getting any closer.
"is that all you got?" I noticed a smirk on her lips as she asked in hushed tones.
She slammed me into the wall without saying anything, her body pressing against mine and her face inches away.
I gasped, too astonished to say anything and too turned on to push her away; her face had changed, the amusement in her eyes had faded, and all I could see now was lust.
"Laila?"
I shut my eyes, expecting to feel her lips on mine, but it never came.
"You charms didn't work" she whispered next to my ear before blowing in it.
I feel like my mind is foggy. I'm at a loss for words; what the hell is wrong with me? I can't believe I fell for such an act.
And why didn't my charms work? They had always worked, no girl had ever turned me down, but Laila came along and rejected me not once ,but twice I admit she crushed my ego.
"Get out of the house before I kick you out myself," she said, her clothes in hand, pointing to the door.
"Fine," I said, clearing my throat. "I'll wait outside."
ugh now I have to wait outside, but it might be for the best, I need to clear my head after that heated moment we just had.
I can't get it out of my head; every time I close my eyes, I see her face, lips, and the look in her eyes; I think I'm going crazy.
Laila was finally done 10 minutes later, dressed in black ripped jeans and a grey hoodie. does she only have hoodies?
"finally"
"Shut up, if it weren't for you, we wouldn't be this late," she said, glaring at me.
Why does she have to keep reminding me?
Laila began walking in the direction of her home. And I gave her a puzzled look.
"Where are you going?"I asked
"To my house,duh"
"We have school"
"Yeah and?"
"Why are you going to your house?"
"To see my siblings and my mom plus I will go with my own car"she said inserting the keys in the hole.
"You have siblings and a car?"I asked
"Yeah"
"Then why where you walking to school yesterday"
"Agh you ask too many questions and I'm already late"she said then opened the door
"Wait..."
"Cya"she said and closed the door in my face
I made my way back to my car
To my surprise Alex and jomana ,Laila's friends, were standing next to it
Awesome. This morning keeps getting better.
When they saw me, Jomana's eyes widened, and I could see Alex gritting his teeth and clinching his fists ready to throw a punch.
"Hey guys," I said casually, oblivious to Alex's murderous stares.
"Omg, what are you doing at Laila's house?" she blurted at once
I looked at Alex to see what he would say, but I didn't get a chance because he grabbed me by the collar and slammed me into the car.
What is it about today that people are slamming me?
"IF I FIND OUT THAT YOU FUCKING LAID A FINGER ON HER I'M GONNA FUCKING KILL YOU! DO YOU HEAR ME "He roared, fists raised, ready to punch, but Laila arrived first.
"What the hell is going on here?" she exclaimed, and everyone fell silent.
Jomana was the first to rush over to Laila, whispering something in her ear, which caused Laila's face to flush red.
"Of course not, I just met him yesterday ," Laila said, pushing Jomana away.
When Alex heard what Laila said, he let go of my collar.
"Then why did he sleep over if it was just an INNOCENT movie marathon?" Jomana asked, her hand on her hip, her forehead arched as she looked at Laila.
"Ahh, I got a little tipsy."
"You did?!"
In unison, Alex and Jomana inquired.
Laila gave them a look and they shut up, I just don't get it isn't it normal for everyone to get drunk
After all, Laila isn't just normal
"Anyway, guys, I should probably go, bye," I said, winking at Laila as I climbed into my black porch and drove away to school.
When I got there, I parked in my normal spot, grabbed my belongings, and walked over to my best friend and business partner.
Grayson Palmer.
Grayson was the FBI agent sent to make sure I was loyal enough and to keep me in check when I first met him in school we didn't get along, we were the opposite of each other. One day, there was a horrific shooting, and I saved his life, and we've been best friends and partners ever since.
Yes, I'm an FBI agent, and my job is to get close to Laila Caspienne Adams and protect her.
Her father was one of the agency's most outstanding scientists, but after stealing some classified information, he vanished, and even our most skilled hackers were unable to locate him.
And my goal is to get close to Laila, gain her trust and heart, and ensure her safety, after which I will vanish when the scientist is found.
I didn't mind at first, but I never imagined she'd be able to steal my heart before I could steal hers.
