"Ah!" Minerva cried out in alarm. Before she could escape, he held both her hands down. Maddox, who had just finished showering, was still warm and wet. Moreover, his upper body was still naked and yet he was pressing down on her.
She felt as though her heart was about to jump out of her throat. She nervously stared at the person right in front of her.
"What, what are you doing?" She was so nervous that she licked her lips.
Little did she know that licking her lips was an invitation for the man, especially considering how close they were and the position they were in.
Maddox lowered his head and kissed her almost instantly. The kiss was hotter than his body and it overwhelmed her.
"Mm." Minerva's eyes widened as she stretched out her hands in an attempt to push him away.
This b*stard...
She hadn't even taken a bath yet. After working the whole day, she could smell sweat all over her body. However, he was different. He had already showered. If she was to sleep with him at this time, wouldn't she be at a great disadvantage? After all, she was... stinky.
Thinking of this, Minerva could only try her best to avoid his kiss. At the stime, she said, "Wait... I haven't taken a bath yet." Maddox's thin lips moved to the side of her neck, "What do you need to take a bath for? I don't mind anyway!" "I mind! Let go of me." He made a sound and then suddenly picked her up.
"Okay, I'll help shower you." Then, ignoring her resistance, he carried her into the bathroom.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtBang! The bathroom was still humid from Maddox's shower. After he carried her in, he closed the door as if he was afraid that she would run away.
As a tall person, his hands were naturally long. He was still holding her with one hand, and with his other he had turned on the shower head.
The water immediately rushed out from the shower and splashed on Minerva's head, waking her up.
She began to struggle, "Let go of me! I can wash myself. Get out!" He put her down, but he didn't go out. Instead, he pushed her back against the cold wall.
Her back was pressed against the cold hard walls while her front had hot water running from head to toe.
This feeling of being hot and cold at the stime...
Minerva's breath cto a halt. She looked up at Maddox's eyes, only to find that they looked like deep pools of water. She couldn't tell what was behind them.
She was flustered, but also a little excited. Her eyes were empty as she looked around; she was trying to find something to focus on but she couldn't.
Until the clothes fell to the ground.
"Look at me." Maddox pinched her chin and gestured for her to stop fluttering her gaze around.
"Right now, as long as you look at me, it will be fine." "What?" She was panicking, but his words seemed to cast a spell on her as she subconsciously nodded her head. Minerva could even see her own reflection in his dark eyes.
Her face was flushed, her hair was in a mess, and her eyes were full of charm. She was so shy...
It took them a long tto finish the shower.
After they were done, Maddox helped to blow dry her hair. As he did so, he saw the bruises on her neck and could not help but lower his head to kiss her.
As they kissed, they went at it again on the sofa.
Finally... They tossed and turned all their way to the bed and did it again.
All in one night... She was exhausted to the point of collapsing.
They hugged each other and fell asleep. Minerva was so tired that she breathed heavily in her sleep. Although Maddox was tired too, he didn't feel sleepy at all. Holding the weary person in his arms, he gave her a loving kiss on her forehead, and then moved from her forehead to her eyes, and then to the tip of her nose.
And then...
Maddox's eyes darkened. He could not go down any further.
Otherwise... He might not be able to control himself and go for another round.
He had the energy, but she wouldn't be able to get out of bed the next day.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe felt bad for her so he did not move down any further. Instead, he kissed her forehead again and said to her in a soft voice, "Good night." Then, he closed his eyes and slept with her.
This time, Minerva slept very deeply. The next day, she was woken up by Maddox. The moment she opened her eyes, she regained consciousness. Then, she instantly felt soreness overwhelm her body. She had no strength to even lift her hand.
"You're awake? Have swarm water first." His handsface leaned towards her and helped her up. Then, he propped up two more pillows behind her to help her sit up. He held the cup to her lips. She was thirsty so she did not say no. She took a few sips of warm water to moisten her throat. It took her quite a while to regain her senses.
"Are you tired? Do you want to just rest in the room today?" "We flew all the way here to rest in the hotel room?" Minerva rolled her eyes at him.
"Of course not. I remember why we came, but... Do you have the strength now?" "Even if I don't have the strength, it's all because of you!" "Yes," Maddox approached her with a smile, trying to butter her up, "I couldn't restrain myself and I wanted to bully you. That's why you're like this now." Minerva blocked his face and stopped him from moving forward. She then said, "I'm hungry. Did you prepare any food for me?" "Of course. I'll take you to brush your teeth first." "No, I'll go by myself."
She pushed him away and wanted to get out of bed. However, as soon as her feet touched the ground, shen went limp and almost fell down. Maddox had to give her a hand. He lifted her up and carried her into the bathroom to wash up. Minerva thought that she'd rather die than have someone brush her teeth for her.
Therefore, she didn't agree. She just asked him to support her so that she wouldn't fall down again. Then, she proceeded to brush her teeth.
When she finished washing up, Maddox carried her back to the dining table. She took a bite of the delicious food. She was starving. While she ate, she glared at him.
He smiled and caught the look in her eyes. He asked softly, "Do you still have the strength to stare at me? Did I not wear you out enough?" She was speechless.
If she took another look at him, she would have to eat her hat.
She quietly lowered her head to eat breakfast and filled up her stomach. Then, she wiped her mouth and asked, "When will you taketo see that woman?" The smile on Maddox's lips froze. He raised his eyebrows and said, "Why are you in such a hurry? And... Are you strong enough now?" Upon hearing this, she sneered, "Why would I not? I still have the strength to meet with her and talk."
He was the one who insisted on bringing her to see that girl calledh Monica Actually... Minerva had already believed him the moment he had brought her onto the plane.
However, honestly, she had not been that suspicious of Maddox. She just felt like if he could not deak with all e his admiters properly and give her a sense of security, there was no need for her to waste her twith him for the rest of her life. X
