Love Unexpectedly

Chapter 12

I'm standing in the hallway mouth agape. I'm utterly lost for words.

"Are you okay Cassy?"

I look at Alexander. "What is going on? What's all this?" I demanded.

"What do you mean?" He looks at me innocently.

"Really? Now you will pretend like nothing is amiss?"

I look at the table for two in front of us with candles and flowers. "Are you having a dinner date after we do the deed?" That's really an asshole move. And why do I feel jealous? I shouldn't be! After this, we'll go back to our normal life like nothing happened.

"Well, actually yes. It depends if she wants it before or after though." He looks at me smiling boyishly.

"What?"

"You mean to say this is for me?" I asked him with bewilderment.

He nods once. "Yup!" No, no, no!

"No!" I said immediately.

"What? Why?" He looks confused.

Feeling exasperated. "We agreed Alexander! This is just a one night stand! Not a date!" I exclaimed.

"You did but I didn't! You, simply assumed!" He points out.

This is not what I want! If we do this, emotions will come and I don't want to risk my heart just to be trampled all over again. I'm even doing us a favor.

"We don't need this!" I said referring to the fiasco in front of us.

"We'll simply do it and I'll leave right away. You said you want to help me! This..." pointing to the dinner table "is unnecessary and stupid!"

He steps closer to me with blazing eyes. Oh! Did I say something? Why is he so furious now? I step back a little.

"So you're saying I'll just fuck you and then throw you out when I'm done? Is that what you want Cassandra?" He practically spits every word out.

Alexander looks so feral like anytime now he'll show his canine and eat me alive.

"Yee...ye...yess..." I stuttered feeling my heart jumps in my throat.

He didn't say anything else just growled and turns around.

"Alexander! Whe...where are you going?"

He whirls back and looked at me ferociously. "You want to fuck right? I'll be in my room!" Then he strides towards his room.

Oh my god! Should I follow him? He looks really angry. I've never seen him that angry.

Don't go Cassandra he looks like he wants to strangle you! My mind warned me.

I know he wouldn't do that. But what if he does? I shouldn't have told my bodyguard to not wait for me. We both trusted Alexander that he didn't mind or question me further. I just told him that Alexander will send me home later and he simply agreed. Ugh! So much for being a bodyguard. Now the next time he'll see me I will be in a big black bag lying somewhere in a ditch.

Anyway, I don't have a choice now. I'm already here I can't prolong this any longer. I followed him with unsteady feet. I'm not certain what will happen when I enter the room, nevertheless, I braced myself for the onslaught.

I saw Alexander sitting on a single couch near the bed.

"Alexander?" I called his name timidly.
