I slowly try to move my leg away from him pushing myself further into the door. A smirk appears on his face and I can tell that he expected me to react that way.
"Come back here" he says with a smile as if nothing seems to bother him at all. I push away more as if there was even any more room.
His eyes almost turn a darker shade of black and I know am in trouble. Slowly measuring my steps, I move towards him until am almost touching his side and stop.
I avoid his gaze as much as I can so as to not intimidate him. He smiles at my actions and I know that the simple gesture I just made will change my life. It won't be the same.
Tears threaten to spill out of my eyes and I look up to meet his gaze. His smile is gentle as if this is some kind of game to him. My hands begin to tremble as tears start running down.
"Please don't hurt me. " I say shaking in fear as I feel my world shaking. I feel an arm wrap around me and he shoves me to his chest. I feel so weak that I don't even fight it anymore.
"Please don't take me" I say as I try to hold back some tears fearing to wet his shirt. He just gently brushes my hair as if he didn't hear my plea.
"Call me Caine" is all he says and he lays back on the seat still holding me. Am sure this must be Stockholm syndrome.
Quite the opposite, I feel better in his arms as I cry silently until my vision blurs and sleep takes over.
.
When I wake up, I expect to find myself in a car but no. I take in my surroundings from the lavish bed am in. The room is adorned with Persian textile designs and priceless furniture are spread across the room.
I notice three doors in the room which I presume one is the bathroom and I decide that a cold shower is what I crave. I strip don't my clothes and since no one else is in the room I decide to not take a towel.
Trying one of the doors.....I find it to be the closet so I move to the closest one assuming its the bathroom. I change my mind and take a towel from a hanger beside the door and put it on my shoulder and open the door.
I don't feel the tiles I expected to feel and when I look up, I almost shrink at the sight. This isn't the bathroom. Shit.
Who the fuck has a joint office with the bedroom. I don't even have time to think when Caine stands to make his way to me.
"I am .....am sorry" I choke on my words as I quickly wrap the towel around me. I take steps back until I finally hit the wall.
"Gabriella... What a nice way to greet me" he says as he steps closer only a few inches between us. I feel myself hyperventilate.
"I never knew it was your office" I try the door knob but its locked. He did it. Idiot.
"Its okay. Why are you even worried. You should get used to this." He says gently brushing against my upper arm.
I want to run away from him but I don't want to submit to my fears. That's when I feel it. The tingles and goose bumps that arise when he touches me and I slightly move away.
This wasn't supposed to happen to me. Am sure of it. He suddenly stops as if realizing something. He dips his face at the crook of my neck and my breath hitches.
Maybe am not good enough for him. He is going to kill me isn't he.
Quite the opposite as I feel him sniff me and I inhale sharply. Suddenly he grips my upper arms tightly as I start to tremble. This is surely how I die then.
"What did you do?" He asks as he glares at me and I can't even think of what I did wrong .
"No....noth...nothing" I stammer at my words wondering how I got into this situation. His eyes turn pitch black as he sniffs the air again.
"That smell on you....what did you do?" He clarifies more as he backs away releasing the grip on my shoulders.
"Who are you to even ask me such a personal question" I say as anger surges through me.
"Am your mate Gabi....is it so hard to notice" I almost choke on it as I try to catch my breathe. This wasn't suppose to happen. Eva told me.
I look up to meet his gaze and notice despair showing on his face as tears outline his eyes.
He turns and just leaves the office and I can feel anger radiating from his body.
I just leave and put on my previous days clothes and rush out only to bump into Zane. He looks surprised as he regains his balance.
"What's wrong with everyone today? You're all so moody" he says as he assesses me.
"Caine...he....he....he" I can't even get the words out of me as I take in a deep breath.
He pushes me back inside and sits me on the sofa as he looks at me questioningly.
"Tell me what happened" he says and I tell him what happened till when he left. Out of nowhere he leans in and catches me unaware.
"What are you doing?" I ask as I move away further into the couch.
"I want to rape you. Fool. Am trying to smell what he sniffed" he said as he laughed.
I can't help feel uneasy.
"Where did you get that smell from. What have you done to yourself Ella?....he is going to kill someone. I have to find him." He says as he stands up.
Tears brim my eyes as I wonder what smell they are all talking about. It must be smelling really bad for my mate to not want me.
