FULL NOVELXO Chapter 74
My Bestfriend Slipped Inside Me (An Alpha’s Secret) Chapter 74
Avery’s pov
The air around us feel electric, something like zapping electricity swirling through the air circling us two alone. The music drones out in my ears and suddenly I can no longer hear the chatter of anyone else but hear his breathing.
His hand lingers in my waist, the heat of his fingers somehow sinking into my skin. I shuddered, pulling in a long drag of air. I am in a trance and unable to move my eyes off his.
Blue. So blue.
He gripped me harder, his pupils dilating oddly and I could have sworn I saw a flash of something strange in his eyes, a flicker of red. But it must have been the stupid disco light they had hanging from the ceiling.
Suddenly I am pulled out of my daze when Melissa slides up to me, her voice sharp with fake confusion and worry. “Avery I’ve told you many times you must watch where you’re going,” her sultry eyes slide over to the mysterious hot guy and her eyes twinkle as though she had just got a new favorite toy.
“I’m sorry for that hottie, my friend can be so clumsy,” Melissa flirted and twirled her hair.
Her stare unnerved me and I found myself subconsciously grinding my teeth and glaring at her while she stared at my mysterious guy with love struck eyes.
My guy?
I reddened at the thought, my eyes shifting over to him slowly only to be surprised that his eyes were on me the entire time and had not spared a glance at Melissa. “Are you okay?” His hoarse voice questioned, his stunning eyes rolling down my frame and making me shiver.
My eyes widen when I realize that he was referring to the spilt drink on my attire. I smiled and nod, trying to act cool. I don’t know why but he makes me nervous and giddy. Something I’ve never felt before.
“Of course she is! Hey didn’t you say you’re heading out for some fresh air?” Melissa nudged me slightly, giving me that look that told me to walk away so she can have him all to herself.
I didn’t. I stay rooted where I stood and shyly looked at the mysterious hot guy under my lashes. “You left before I could give you back your pen.”
Melissa gaped, her jaw so slack a fly could enter. ” Wait he’s your penis guy?!”
While I flushed red with embarrassment, the mysterious guy looked at me with a quirked amused brow, eyes twinkling. “Penis guy huh?”
I spluttered, shooting Melissa a look to shut up, but she’s not even staring at me, but at the guy I strangely feel possessive over. “I-
I started and swallowed. “I’m going to take that fresh air now,” I mumbled, wanting the floor to open up and swallow me whole. Melissa really knew how to embarrass me.
I moved around the guy, a little voice in my head praying that he’d follow me to the porch. I wanted to speak to him alone…after all I didn’t know his name and would love to know it.
As I stepped onto the porch, I am grateful and relieved that everyone had left and went to party inside. The cool air brushed against my skin, making chills of goosebumps to dot where it kissed.
I sighed, my belly knotting. Will he follow after me? I rolled my lower lip between my teeth and bit down on the flesh, waiting with my breath snagged in my throat.
And then a few seconds later I heard it, the door opening and closing. My pulse quickened and I prayed it was him. I shudder when that familiar feeling of heat snake down my spine, but this time it was more intense.
I turn around slowly, my heart thrumming against my delicate chest. There he was, his tall frame in front of the door, staring right at me with a look that made me shudder.
How can a mere stranger make me feel this way?
I held my breath, my fingers gripping the banisters hard when he approaches me, his eyes staring at me with an intensity that makes my knees weaken. I lean my bottom against the banister for support, my breathing coming shaky when his eyes drop to my lips.
Something in his gaze flickers through the glass of his soul and I gasped, never seeing such pure emotion before. “Why do I feel like I know you?” The words drift out of my lips before I could think and piece them together.
I flush and the cold air is a contrast against my hot cheeks. His eyes flicked lower, to my throat, to my pulse and he groaned. “I shouldn’t be here.”
He shook his head his hands fisting at his sides when he stopped in front of me. His jaw is set hard and it’s like he is straining to contain himself. “I shouldn’t be here with you V,” his voice cracks, and his hand reach forward and I held my breath, waiting for him to touch me. My skin buzz with anticipation.
But before his fingertips could brush against me, he brings his hand back to his side, this time creating a fist so hard I am afraid he’d hurt himself.
My brows furrowed, watching him fight with himself inwardly. “You’re calling me V. Short for Avery right?”
His eyes left my throat and snap to stare into my soul. He captured it with one gaze. I shudder. “Do you-do we know each other?”
He tilted his head, reaching to hold the banister. I gasped when I heard the wood splinter and look down, but his voice draws me back to him before I could get a good look at the damage.
“Used to.” He ground out, feeding my confusion even more. I opened my mouth to question him but a shift in the bushes made us snap our eyes at the disturbance.
The mysterious guy’s jaw harden and I jump startled when I heard something like a growl move past his lips. It sounded so feral…so animal. He spins around to go down the stairs before I can question him.
“Wait!” I yelled after him, my feet itching to follow him but something told me he didn’t want to be followed right now. “I didn’t get your name!”
He suddenly stops, his shoulders so tense against the fabric of his shirt. And then he looked over his shoulder, his eyes a little strange yet I am sure it was because there was no good lighting outside. My pulse quickened when his lips did that sexy smirk. “Your penis guy.” He winked and head for a vehicle I presume is his.
