"Date?! What are you talking about?!" Athena asked in disbelief while looking at him as if he had lost a few screws in his head.
But the mention of date put a shy smile on her face as well which he noticed.
"I am talking about our date, Athena.I never knew you were so slow in catching such things." He teased, earning a frown immediately.
"What date? When did I agree to it? I didn‘t even know about it until now.So, how can you bring me on a date? And who brings someone for a date to a place like this?" She asked with a frown, playing hard before giving in.
He smirked at her, understanding what her intention was.He knew that she liked the place very much.
"My goodness.You have so many questions to ask."
He sighed and she looked at him with narrowed eyes.
"Yes, and you are going to answer each of them." She said in an adamant tone, earning a chuckle from him which made her heart skip a beat at the sound.
But she tried her best to not show any expression as she kept looking at him like she didn‘t care about what was happening.
"Okay, okay.I will answer each of them.I never said I wasn’t going to.But before that, I need your help with something."
He said as he looked at her with hopeful eyes.
She looked at him suspiciously because he was sounding way too innocent while asking for help.She felt that something was up with him.
"Okay...? What is it?" She asked in a suspicious tone, waiting to hear with what she can help the great alpha Dominic.
"I need your help to pull me up so that I can get up.I am all wet and it‘s too slippery.I can’t get up without some help.Also I can’t answer all your questions while being in the water, right?" He asked innocently while making complete sense and that made her more suspicious.
He continued when she kept looking at him silently.
"So, are you going to help me?" He asked once again while giving her the most innocent boyish look he could pull off, making her sigh.
"You are acting weird, do you know that?"She asked while letting out another sigh.
His’ weirdness’ was making her heart go crazy, does he have any idea about that?
"Weird? How weird?" He asked in the same way, knowing very well about the effect he has on her.
He smirked internally, enjoying her reactions way too much.
"Ugh! I can‘t explain that.Just let it go and give me your hands.On the count of three, I will pull you up and you will jump up as well.Okay?" She asked in a strict tone and he immediately nodded at her, agreeing to her demand without any questions.
She forwarded her right hand toward her without thinking much.
"Okay, okay.On the count of three." He said as he held her hand tightly in his cold and wet hand while giving her a smirk.
She frowned at his smirk but it was too late for her to read into that as she started counting already.
"One...Two...The – … Ahhh! Dominic!"
She let out a loud squeal as instead of pulling him forward, she felt a hard pull toward Dominic and within seconds they both were back into the water which was surprisingly warm.
His hands were tightly wrapped around her waist as they went deep into the lake water because of the force of their weight.
After a few seconds of being there, Dominic swam both of them back into the shore while still holding her.
She was holding onto him tightly as well as if her life depended on him.
They both took deep breaths as soon as they were up in the air.
Athena pushed the hair away from her face before glaring at him while he laughed out loud.
