Be Careful When You Bite Me
Chapter 24
“S-sorry,” I mumbled, flushing bright red and brought the leggings up to my waist.
I felt a sudden rush of shyness and nervousness both rain over my body.
“Don’t apologize,” he forced a smile,” I-I’m sorry about last night, I didn’t mean to hurt you.”
Did he just stutter? I shook my head,” don’t apologize, I didn’t give you much of choice.”
“I shouldn’t have lost control-“
“Like I said, I didn’t give you much of a choice.”
He stayed silent but he looked away from me, his gaze going downwards.
I took a few steps until I was a foot away from him,” I’m here, I’m ok, you didn’t hurt me,” I wrapped my fingers around his.
His golden eyes bore into mine and they look pained. Without warning, he stepped away and headed towards the door,” let’s go.”
I sighed out loud and silently obeyed.
The car ride was spent in silence yet again and I secretly wondered when we were going to get over this awkward bubble of tension.
The car halted at the doors of a high rise building. Damon glanced my way and said,” let’s go.”
At least he talked this time.
I followed once again. Inside the building was just as breath taking as the lobby. We entered the elevators just as they were about to close.
Damon pressed the button 18.
I stole secret glances towards him but his gaze remained on the ground.
Ding!
The elevator doors opened to reveal a charcoal grey carpeted hallway. We walked down until stopping at door 1809.
Damon knocked on the door and I couldn’t help but wonder who it was we were visiting. Seconds later the door burst wide open, behind it was a shirtless Xavier. His expression transited from confusion to annoyance and he stepped aside to let us in.
“Damon, Holly.”
