What Has Happened?
Ava started fanning herself with her hands. Mateo noticed her face reddening, and at that moment, he became even more concerned. He took her hand to help her stand up, then placed his hand around her waist to guide her.
“We need to go, you should lie down. Maybe that way you’ll start feeling a bit better.”
The girl allowed herself to be led; the contact with Mateo felt very comforting.
When they stepped outside, Max, the driver, was already waiting for them. During the ride to the hotel, the proximity of Mateo’s body ignited even more the heat that Ava was feeling. He noticed her drawing nearer with each moment. Upon arrival, he helped her out of the car and guided her to the elevator. Inside the elevator, the situation became exceedingly strange. Ava moved closer to him, cornering him against the wall, while her breath grew more rapid.
Mateo refrained from saying anything to avoid making her feel uncomfortable. He simply tried to evade her. As soon as the elevator doors opened, he led her to her room and helped her lie down. Throughout this time, Ava was constantly biting her lower lip.
He went into the bathroom to dampen a towel and placed it on her forehead, hoping to lower her temperature. When he returned, he was taken aback. Ava had removed all her clothes, standing completely naked. His body reacted involuntarily.
“Damn it, Ava! This can’t be happening. I need to control myself.”
He chastised himself harshly for his body’s reaction. It wasn’t the right time. He moved closer to try to cover her up, but everything happened so quickly. Ava grabbed the collar of his shirt, pulling him towards her. Before he could react, she was kissing him.
For a moment, he allowed himself to be swept away by the kiss. He had to gather his strength to pull away. She pouted in displeasure as he moved back. Immediately, he called Max to request that a doctor be brought over right away. He was beginning to suspect what was happening with Ava, and he definitely wasn’t going to take advantage of the situation.
Max arrived with the doctor shortly after. Mateo had left the door unlocked so they could enter. At that moment, he was holding onto Ava’s arms to prevent her from exposing herself further. She was agitated, and he couldn’t control her.
The doctor examined her immediately, with Max helping Mateo hold her.
“Based on this girl’s symptoms, it’s quite clear what’s happening to her. What has she consumed?”
“We were at an event, and a girl offered her a drink.”
“Well, that drink must have been adulterated. There are hypotensives that significantly increase libido.”
“If it wasn’t with her consent, it could be considered a crime, and I can see she’s quite young. Is she of legal age? If she isn’t, you’ll be in significant trouble.”
“She is, let me find her identification right away. But before that, could you administer some medication to help her improve?”
The doctor sent Max to fetch the necessary medications. Fortunately, he returned quickly. It was quite challenging to set up the intravenous drip for administering the medication. The doctor stayed there until the process was complete.
“This medication should counteract the effects. You should bathe her with lukewarm water and keep her in the bathtub for a few minutes. If the effects don’t wear off soon, call me again, and we might have to consider hospitalizing her. Let’s hope it doesn’t come to that.”
“I’ll follow your instructions precisely. Here’s her identification; as you can see, she’s of legal age.”
The doctor examined Ava’s ID card meticulously. Afterward, he shook his head and left without saying anything. Max would escort him back and pay his fees.
As soon as they were gone, Mateo filled the bathtub as the doctor had instructed. He draped a towel over Ava, then carried her in his arms to place her in the water. As he was about to rise from the tub, Ava once again grabbed the collar of his shirt, pulling him with such force that Mateo tumbled into the water. That wasn’t what worried him; it was the fact that he fell directly onto Ava.
“Damn it!”
Ava just laughed, completely out of her senses. Mateo quickly stood up, peeled off his wet clothes, and then covered himself with a bathrobe.
He felt desperate, seeing Ava’s naked body, the body of the girl he desired so much, and having to control himself-it wasn’t easy. His imagination ran wild; that day, his resistance had been tested in various ways.
Minutes later, he lifted her from the bathtub, carefully drying her body. He couldn’t help but tremble as he did so. He laid her on the bed and covered her. At that moment, Ava appeared more tranquil. Shortly afterward, she fell into a deep sleep. He reproached himself over and over for being so foolish. He stayed by her side, berating himself for being so foolish. He shouldn’t have taken an angel like her to a place like that.
Things had spiraled out of his control, and that bothered him immensely. He was accustomed to having control over everything that happened in his life.
He picked up his cellphone to call his friend; he knew that Clara was to blame for all of this. She was the only one who could have acted in such a way, always pretending to be something she wasn’t.
“Friend, I need you to check the club’s security footage. Something serious has happened to Ava, and I’m sure Clara is responsible.”
“What happened? I couldn’t find you guys later.”
“They gave Ava some kind of aphrodisiac. It happened when I went to the bathroom. She said a very friendly girl approached her and gave her a drink, claiming I sent it. She’s in a bad state; she’s seen the doctor.”
“I’m so sorry, my friend. I don’t know how this happened. I need to enhance the attention and surveillance within the club. You can count on the footage; I’ll get on it immediately.”
“I appreciate it, buddy. I’m sure Clara’s behind this.”
After ending the call, he lay down next to Ava. He had no intention of leaving her alone until she got better. He watched her sleep-she was there before him, so peaceful. She was truly beautiful; her face resembled that of an angel, with a petite nose, long eyelashes, and a small mouth as red as a strawberry. Unintentionally, he fell asleep beside her; he was utterly exhausted.
Ava woke up very early; she immediately realized she was naked. She reached out to her side and sensed that someone was with her. She knew it was Mateo because his scent was unmistakable. She felt terribly frightened, thinking that something might have happened between them.
She hit him hard to wake him up, and he jolted awake as he felt the impact.
“What’s wrong? Why did you hit me?”
“What happened? Why am I naked?” she asked, completely agitated, tears streaming down her cheeks.
“I’m sorry, Ava. You fell ill last night, and I brought you back. I had to call a doctor, and I stayed by your side to make sure you were okay, but I didn’t touch you.”
“Did you really not touch me? Does that mean nothing happened between us?”Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.
“Nothing happened; you can trust my word.” Mateo feared she wouldn’t believe him.
“I can’t remember anything, just that I felt an awful heat after returning to the table.”
Mateo didn’t want to tell her what had actually happened. She had placed her trust in him, and he had let her down.
“Perhaps one of the drinks didn’t agree with you. The doctor examined you and administered some medication through an IV.”
“I’m sorry for ruining your night. I shouldn’t have gone.”
Mateo found her utterly endearing. Despite everything that had happened, she was only concerned about potentially ruining his night. Clara would pay for what she had done; her actions wouldn’t go unpunished.
“Why am I naked? Where is my clothing?”
“After we got back, you took it off,” he told her the truth, not wanting her to think it was him and that he was taking advantage.
Ava felt embarrassed; she wanted to disappear under the covers. Her behavior had been inappropriate.
“I’m sorry, I’ve behaved terribly.”
“I haven’t seen anything.”
Mateo took Ava’s hands and used them to cover her eyes. She couldn’t help but laugh at his gesture.
It had been an intense night. If her nanny found out, she would want to kill Mateo. Lola was a very sweet woman, but she changed when someone touched her. There were no secrets between them, but Ava didn’t plan on revealing what had happened that night. She preferred to keep it to herself.
Ava had many questions about the club, doubts that she wanted Mateo to clarify. She hoped he would be honest in his response.
“Mateo, I need to ask you something, and I hope you’ll be honest. What kind of place have you taken me to?” Mateo stared at her; the dreaded moment of telling her the truth had arrived.
