Let Me Stay The Night

Christina’s anger continued to rise as she dwelled on the situation Me cansing a scene? He deliberately kept thingy from me vet mote he dares to accuse me of coming a rerne!

“Fine Just go ahead and think that I’m causing a scene. Let me go!” Christina tried shoving Nathaniel away, but her efforts were in vain.

Nathaniel placed his hands on her slender shoulders. “I didn’t tell you because I was worried you would react this way.”

Fury surged inside Christina. Does that mean he felt he did the right thing by keeping it a secret?

“You’re being completely unreasonable! Release me!” Christina exclaimed, finally experiencing what it was like to erupt in rage. Her blood surged, reaching a boiling point, and she felt as if her fury could suffocate her. I wish I could sew his mouth shut with a needle!

She impatiently brushed his hand aside and stormed off, determined to find a place to hide.

As she stomped her way toward the room. Nathaniel followed right behind. “Calm down, please. Christina. Let’s talk nicely.”

“What’s there to talk about? You’re just trying to persuade me with your absurd excuses” She reached for the doorknob, intending to shut the door, but Nathaniel blocked her way, preventing her from closing it.

The couple engaged in a tense stare-down. The air seemed to freeze at that moment, with countless sparks flickering between them.

Christina’s eyes blazed with rage so intense that it could engulf the whole room the next second.

“Let me go.” She felt she was running out of patience.

Witnessing Nathaniel’s icy and detached demeanor, she boldly sank her teeth into his wrist without a moment’s hesitation. A subtle aroma of sandalwood permeated her nostrils, blending with the heat emanating from his body.

As she bit down with more force, he quickly stifled a groan and released his grip on the door. Christina took advantage of the opportunity, promptly pushing him out and firmly closing the door behind him.

She did all that in one go and didn’t show the slightest bit of doubt.

After that, she leaned against the door, inhaling Nathaniel’s intoxicating scent that enveloped the air around her. Frowning slightly, she exhaled and kicked her slippers away before climbing into bed and pulling the covers over her head.

She thought she would lose sleep that night, but surprisingly, she found herself drifting effortlessly into a deep slumber, all thanks to the alcohol.

The next day when she woke up. she felt much better.
