“And what if | don’t do that?” Ryan asked.
Roaxana sharply gazed at him. “Then, | need t bring some senses to you.” She hit his forehead using hers. While wincing in pain, Ryan backed off while Roaxana quickly sat up before moving away from him. She caressed her forehead and glared at him.
“You have to see my face every day. | don’t care if you hate it,” Roaxana announced. She then got on her feet and crossed her arms across her chest. “Did you eat something? Why were you in the hotel?”
She was aware that he had not eaten anything in the hotel and he was with his father to meet someone related to business, but she remained alert for not getting Ryan find out that she knew all this through Noah.
“Leave,” Ryan said.
“No. | won't go anywhere tonight,” Roaxana affirmed.
Ryan glanced at her while holding back his anger. His eyes burned with the fire for avenging his mother’s death. “It seems you are willing to spread the rumors about us,” he muttered.
“No rumors will spread. Even if they are, we both know you aren't in love with me. So, those rumors don’t matter at all,” Roaxana proclaimed, looking straight into his eyes.
She picked up the alcohol bottle to throw it away and decided to search the place to find out how much Ryan had kept there. “Don't take it away. Don’t bother me. | beg you,” Ryan finally said in a pleading tone.. “Leave me.”
He thought if his hatred, anger and ignorance couldn't push away Roaxana from him, then his request could. He was not ready to get back to her just because Roaxana had nothing to do with his mother’s death.
Roaxana suddenly sat on his side and hugged him tightly. She caressed his back before opening her mouth to speak, “Ryan, do you remember the promise we made when we were kids?” She then continued, “No matter how hard time would be, we would become each other’s support and shield. We vowed this. | won't leave you. Don’t punish yourself for something you aren’t aware of.”
Her words were soothing and touching to the soul. Ryan moved his hands slowly up and hugged her tightly. His eyes shut and tears emerged from them.
After a while, when they both withdrew from the hug, Roaxana saw the tears in Ryan’s

eyes. She wiped them using her thumbs. “You should wash your face. I'll cook something for you,” she softly said.
Ryan nodded his head simply. She helped him get up and dropped him to the room. As. she left the room, Ryan shut the doors and headed to the washroom after removing his sweatshirt.
He stood under the cold shower, trying to bring his thoughts together. Ryan knew whatever he did to Roaxana was wrong so far, and he was guilty about that. But he didn’t wish to get hurt in this process, where his father hated the Moore Lycan Family. He ran his fingers through his face and then hair.
Turning off the shower tap, he wrapped a towel around his lower waist and stood in front of the mirror. He brushed his teeth and now, he looked better. Grabbing another small towel to dry his hair, he came out of the washroom only to find Roaxana was present there.
How long did he take shower? He glanced at the wall clock and realized he was in the shower for an hour.
“Ahh, | go out, Roaxana murmured, “your dinner is here. You should eat everything.” She ran outside, making sure to close the door.
Ryan ended up smiling and quickly changed into a casual pair of clothes before sitting for dinner. He finished it soon and went to the kitchen with tray in his hand.
Roaxana was present there, on a counter chair. Thanks for the food. It was delicious. | feel better,” Ryan said as he put the tray into the washbasin. He washed the dishes while Roaxana continued to look at him.
“Do
0 you have to say something to me?” Ryan asked.
“You are a jerk,” Roaxana pronounced.
Ryan lifted his eyes as he stopped wiping the kitchen’s counter with the cleaning cloth. He hummed as he agreed to her statement.

“I cleared him we couldn’t date,” Roaxana stated.
“Why? | told you to experience that once. You should at least give him a chance,” Ryan asserted.
“| have you in my heart, Roaxana again admitted her feelings for him. “You are irreplaceable.”
“| cannot be with you. | don’t like you the way you want me to see you,” Ryan clarified to
her.
“| know,” Roaxana said and yawned. “I’m sleepy. Why don’t you give me a blanket? I'll sleep in the living room’s couch,” she opined.
There are two bedrooms here,” Ryan said. “Come, I'll show you.” He led her way to the second one and took out the duvet from inside the cupboard. “Sleep here,” he said as he spread the duvet on bed. “Goodnight.” He walked past Roaxana when she grasped his hand.
They both gazed at each other when Ryan asked her if she wanted something. She shook her head and suddenly, kissed him. He pulled away and looked into her eyes quizzically.
“| love you and I'll chase you,” Roaxana said before walking toward the bed. Ryan couldn’t utter a word and went to his room after closing the room behind him.
The next morning in Logan’s house:
Hope dried Logan’s hair using the towel while he remained seated on the bed. She was. standing between the gap of his legs. He finally took the towel from her and put it on the bed.
“| will bring breakfast for you here,” Hope opined and turned to leave when Logan pulled her down on his lap. Her back touched his torso while his arm tightly locked around her belly.
Logan rested his chin on her shoulder and nuzzled her neck. “Stay here,” he whispered. He left open-mouthed kisses on her neck, leaving marks behind.
“Logan, we aren't supposed to- Ahh,” She cried in pleasure when he nipped her. sensitive spot.
His one hand came to her curve and caressed it, causing her to arch her back.
“Logan, we should not do this in the morning. | need to prepare the breakfast meals too,” Hope voiced, her heart was hammering against her chest.
“Breakfast can wait. Are you hungry?” Logan asked while teasing her.
“Yeah, I-l am hungry, aren’t you?” She tilted her head to look at him. His eyes looked different as if he wanted to devor her whole. “I'm hungry too,” Logan said and licked his lips, which made her gulp. But it was a mere teasing from his side and he loved doing that to Hope.

“Then, what about a kiss?” Hope offered him.
“It will be good,” Logan replied. This time, he made her face him, her both legs hung on one side of his thigh. Their noses touched as they slowly came closer to each other and then, they kissed.
They started slow, which soon took a turn of hunger. Hope’s fingers entwined with his damp hair as she used the tongue along with her lips to kiss him. He did the same and their tongues danced together in their respective mouths.
Logan moved his hand to the hem of her collared shirt and moved upwards to touch her curves when she pulled away from the kiss.
“Logan, let’s not delay for breakfast.” She gasped for air while managing to speak. “You've medicines to take, she reminded him. “You are my medicine.” Logan whispered and he flipped her on the mattress.
“But you promised that you would go with me for breakfast after the kiss,” Hope said.
“| want more now,” Logan huskily whispered against her lips. “You are sensitive to my touch.” he added as found her biting her bottom lip since he had touched her breast fondly and sensually.
“Give in, Hope. And I'll give you something sweeter,” Logan said, his eyes gleamed red with a grin spreading across his lips. “What will you give me?” Hope was curious to know.
“I'll worship you and give you what you are thinking right now,” Logan said.
“And what is that?” Hope arched her eyebrows.
Logan leaned down to her car. “Chocolate,” he said.
Hope stopped blinking and their eyes met. “Last day you asked me to give you. chocolate. | bought one. What? Did you think something else?” Logan asked with a teasing expression.
Hope hit his arm and pushed him away. “You-you...” She ran outside the room while Logan continued to smile.
