Royal Deception

chapter nineteen

_________________________________________

I made a triumphant air fist.It hadn't been hard to find Carter's shoulder bad so I got my book and noone had caught me yet.

Stealthily I walked across the large living room my eyes directly focused on the elevator.

I pressed the tiny button at the corner and when the elevator opened I regretted having pressed the button.

Standing tall and confused as he left the elevator Carter eyed me closely walking to were I was standing.

I stepped back with my shock-stricken face but he didnt stop charging towards me and i kept moving back until I hit a wall and that was my logjam.

I couldnt move as his steady breaths fanned my face. By now I'm sure I was flushed.

"To what do I owe the pleasure?" He asked pressing himself against me.
And when his hips collided with my stomach I stopped thinking. No like literally I Malfunctioned and started breathing heavily.

"M-M-Move" I stuttered trying to regain physical control of my reluctant body.

But he didnt move away infact he moved a tad bit more close to me. I looked up and before I could shift my glances sideway his eyes captured mine and I  was held hostage under his gaze.

Then he leaned in gaining a gasp from me. If I moved we would be kissing but as desperate as i was i wanted him to initiate it.He raised his fingers and locked them in my hair.

Like a zombie I stood there still and feeble like a sick whale.

He leaned further in and lifted my arms above my head. Aggressive much.
And as his gaze intensified I couldnt help but wish for his collagen inflated lips to meet my dry ones.

Kiss me dammit! I begged in my head.  If he didnt kiss me I was going to die of hormonal imbalance.

And since he was being slow about it I closed my eyes and leaned in.
I kept moving my lips forward but I felt nothing absolutely nothing.

So I decided to open my eyes but what I saw made my mood fall.
Carter had moved a few feet away from me and was dying of laughter.

Without seconds thoughts I walked away headed for the elevator again. Shall I add how my head felt heavy.

"You can't just go" he protested grabbing my elbow pulling me back to face him.

"I believe I can"

"What were you doing in my apartment? Are you a stalker ?should I be worried?" He asked

"I was looking for something and no I am not a stalker "

"Do you mind telling me what you were looking for in my apartment " he asked innocently.  God I was still taking heavy breaths I wanted him and hated him all the while.

"Yes yes I do mind" I smiled.

"This is not a smiling matter I'm serious you could be a stalker and I could be under risk so tell me exactly what you were looking for without MY permission in MY apartment " cocky much.

"I was looking for um..." and before I could finish off my sentence a million pictures of Carter flooded my mind again.

Why brain why , he's right here ! My head was spinning and it became hotter. Just then I took notice of what he was wearing where the hell were his pants.

Man those boxers , his toned legs,  that deep tan, the hair . I was about to faint when he pulled me out of my trance by waving his hand,  then I looked up to be greeted by the usual lock of  hair above his forehead . Was he even a mortal .

"Carter I need to go!" I screamed running for the elevator. And to my luck he didnt chase me.

I needed air. This wasn't healthy.

▫️▫️▫️▫️▫️▫️▫️▫️▫️▫️

"You're awfully quiet what's up?" Asked Kenner directly to me . Sometimes I feel like Kenner and Gerald moved in with us.

"Nothing" I said closing my eyes massaging my head.

"Come on it can't be nothing you've been sniffing that t-shirt like a lost puppy from the moment you got here" voiced Gerald.

I know it's weird but I had been sniffing Carter's t shirt from my drunk weekend for an hour now. I cant forget our encounter.  Did he not want to kiss me as much as I wanted to kiss him?

Was I really unattractive? Had I done something to stop him from kissing me? Was my breathe bad?

All these questions.

"Its the t-shirt she got from Carter" Chloe said with a genuine smile.

"Carter gave you his clothes"

"Geez Gerald you make it sound like he gave me his whole wardrobe it's just a t shirt" I defended

"Then why are you sniffing it?" Asked Kenner

"Maybe you have the hots for him and now you're going through a damsel in distress situation" suggested Chloe.

"I do not have the hots for him"

"You still haven't answered why you're sniffing the t-shirt "

"Kenner drop it please"

"No Oli the subject will not be dropped until you admit that you do like Carter "

"I don't like him okay!" I yelled headed for the door.

"Coward" laughed Gerald "run away little girl one day you'll tell us the truth and boy o.." I slammed the door.

I had a lot of unanswered questions in my mind. But right now only one question was tormenting me.

How do I feel about Carter?
