Enervating Beauty (Kylo Ren x Reader)

Chapter 25- I Quit

"Can you please stop that thing? It won't stop going off," Kylo groaned.

I sighed and rolled over to turn off my data pad. It had been going off all morning with nonstop messages from Vera. My finger slipped however, and accidentally turned on the button that transmits the holographic messages.

"I know you're ignoring me! Can you just answer me for a second! The advisors want to see you now so stop hiding!" she grumbled angrily.

The last thing I wanted to do right now was to go meet with my advisors.

I rolled back over and snuggled closer to Kylo. He swooped his arm under my waist and pulled me even closer, so I was nearly on top of his chest. He ruffled my hair and kissed my forehead.

"Go take care of it. I'll be here when you get back."

I rubbed my eyes tiredly and let my arms drape over his bare, hard chest. I knew I should listen to him and stop being such a baby. I was just so worried that things could slip at any minute like they had so many times before and I wanted as much time with him as possible.

"I'm not going to leave again. I promise," he answered, hearing my worries. I peered up at him gently. He moved his head downward so he could look at me better sprawled across his body. He ran his hand under my chin and across my cheek and smiled at me lovingly.

"Why're you looking at me like that?" he laughed.

"Because I know you're right and for once you're actually my voice of reason," I said getting up.

"Amazing how much logic I have in me when I'm not busy—"

"Fucking me?" I responded finishing his sentence. That brought out a genuine hearty laugh from him, the type that you can feel radiate all over your body.

"Wow, you are still just full of surprises," he smirked, using his arms to push himself up against the headboard of the bed we now shared. I shook my head and laughed to myself and went to my closet to get dressed.

I pulled on a deep green satin dress that enhanced the color of my eyes and fit me like a glove. I twisted my hands around my back and started to pull up the zipper but could only get it halfway.

"Ugh, Ben can you come here! I can't get this up the rest of the way."

Using his old name, I worried what kind of reaction he would have but he said nothing. I heard him stretch and his heavy footsteps come over from across the room. He came up behind me and wrapped his arms around my waist before zipping me up the rest of the way. Grabbing my hands in his, he turned me around, so I'd face him. He looked at me up and down with hungry eyes.

"You look amazing," he said lacing our fingers together.

"Hey, I just—" Iylin said, coming in without knocking.

"Oh gosh sorry I-I didn't know," she mumbled, realizing who was standing by me.

"It's okay. You can come in," I told her, motioning her to close the door behind her. Kylo dropped my hands at her entrance.

"So, what's going on?" I asked her, finishing getting ready.

"Vera wanted me to come and get you since you won't answer her. It's urgent," she said, eyes glued to Kylo's half naked body, roaming around like he owned the place. A place that she practically lived in considering how often she and the other handmaids spent their time here. I could tell that she was uncomfortable.

"How so?" I responded, leading her out of the room so she wouldn't be so uneasy.

I'll talk to you later when I get back. Just don't leave.
