Living the Immortal Life (Sequel to LIF) - ON HOLD!

Chapter 15 - Tick Tock

Evelyn's POV

It's been 3 weeks since the whole ordeal. Mates. Gosh, strange emotions stir inside of me every time I say the damn word. So, most of the time, I acted as though nothing ever happened and that everything was just peachy. As for me and John, we were simply just friends.

"Gahh!" I groaned, fisting my hair and rolling of my bed. I was sick and tired of thinking about this now. It was annoying and painful. I don't know what exactly happened after that moment. One minute I was standing up and the next I found myself by John's door.

It was just me and him now in the house. Aaron was staying over a friend's house, or that's what he told me last night. As usual, I didn't knock and I just strided in. "John?" I called when I couldn't find him.

That was when I noticed that his bathroom door was shut and I could hear running water. After a moment, the sound of the water stopped and it was silent. "Yes, Princesa? I'll be out in a minute," he said.

I was in my own little world when Jonathan walked back into the room with nothing but a towel wrapped around his waist. My mouth popped open at the sight. Sexy just had a new meaning. His blonde hair was darkened by the water and water droplets trailed down his chest and abs. 

My eyes lustfully traced every inch of him, his wonderful sculptured pecks, mouth watering 8 pack, vivid biceps and triceps...everything and I loved it more than I should. Once I was done totally and shamelessly checking him out, my eyes lifted to look at his face and it only made me hotter.

John's jaw muscle was tight and his smothering eyes were penetrating deep into mine. It only took a milli-second before I found myself pinned against the wall. He licked his lips when I bit my bottom lip and he had my hands above my head. 

"John, what are you doing?" I managed to say but my voice betrayed me, it was so huskey.

He didn't reply, instead he moved his face closer to mine and began to trail his strong, straight nose on my jaw and neck. 

I gasped at the sudden as the metaphorical fireworks exploded. "Oh!" 

He inhaled deeply whilst still having contact and muttered, "you smell delicious, Princesa. Like vanilla and cinnamon."

I swear I almost did the impossible and blushed. "Thank you?" I said but it sounded more like a question.

John just smirked at me. "What are you doing here?" he then asked.

I cleared my throat to sound more serious and it worked. "We need to talk, John."

He let out a small sigh and back off. "I hope it's good news, I really do."

I pursed my lips and ignored that comment and said, "and for the love of Pete, put a damn shirt on."

He laughed and tensed so all of those glorious muscles jumped out. "You find this...distracting?" he replied cockily.

I rolled my eyes at him and admitted, "very."

Then he said, "don't worry, this is all yours if you want it."

Damn him! I didn't answer anything to that, how could I? So, I let him know that he had just tipped me off by giving him a sad glare. With that, I flashed out of his room leaving him with a guilty expression on his handsome face.

I ran out of the room and broke into a full blown sprint. I think I've gone insane now, I can't think properly. I went away from the house and in situations like these, my guts were urging me to do one thing and one thing only...make a very important call.

So I did. I let it ring for two rounds before the call got picked up.

"Hello?" a very familiar and comforting voice sounded.

I took a deep breath before replying, "hey, Alice. It's me. I need your help...fast."
