Chapter 229 The Pleasure on Your Face

Lexi stood outside the door to her room, her heart beating wildly in her chest at what might await heron the other side of her door if Allen was in there.

She was so torn and conflicted about what had happened, yet also deliriously happy and the conflicting emotions were tearing her apart.

She groaned loudly and rested her forehead on the door as she sighed heavily. Why did everything have to be so complicated? Was it too much to ask for a quiet life? After a few deep breaths, she placed her hand on the door handle and pursed her lips. It was no good delaying the inevitable, it was probably best to get this over with quickly. Like ripping off a band-aid and dealing with the pain all in one go rather than prolonging the pain with seemingly endless anxiety. She pushed down gently and slowly opened the door, managing to not make a sound, peeking her head around the corner.

The room was in darkness and with a quick glance around the interior, she couldn’t see Allen anywhere inside.

She sighed in relief as she tiptoed inside and closed the door carefully, wincing at the slight click as the latch set into place.

Without wasting any time she made her way straight to the bathroom. She had to get the clothes off her and shower. Not only was she sweaty from wailing on the punchbag for such a long time, but she was also fully aware of Greyson’s scent that still clung to her.

But as she opened the door to the bathroom she froze.

Allen was slumped in the corner, right next to the shower door and he appeared to be fast asleep.
