“……” awkward!!!!!!!!!!!
“That! You!!! What.. What are you doing here?” The girl immediately let go of her feet and stood erect, almost stumbling on her nightgown that she had to tell the table beside the sofa for her support.
‘Why in the name of lord even the nightgown needs to be so fancy and mopping the floor!’ completely forgetting about her clumsy movements, she put all the blame on the dress that was longer than her and the night creature that was standing in front of her with a raised brow.
Rafael took slow steps towards her without giving her any reply as he stared at her and then at her feet with a raised brow! Her red eyes were intimidating like always. Her nerves started to feel jittery.
“Hey! Where are you coming to? And I asked, “What are you doing here?” Since she stood up abruptly from the sofa, she could not even take a step back or run away as the door was behind him.
If she had to run for her life then she had to cross him first! But the way he stared at her with those predatory eyes, she felt like her feet had been frozen..
“Did you forget that this is my room?” he asked with a look that said, ‘you are the intruder here!!’

He must have many partners to give her company anyway. Then why was he even here!
Before she could think of a proper reply, the man had already come closer and stood just an inch away from her.
“What happened to your feet?”
“……….” had she been having a hallucination or was his voice really filled with concern?
She raised her head to look into his eyes but his dark red eyes were too difficult to judge. She only felt like they were blackholes that would suck her souls away if she continued to look at them, so she looked away.
Rafael raised a brow when the girl did not reply to her but continued to stare as if he had suddenly grown two heads, but then when he thought that she would say something she looked away abruptly and he sighed.
This was not the first time she was staring at him like that! But there was no love or adoration, he often saw in the eyes of the woman that came closer to him.
Her eyes were looking at him with vigilance and always finding a way to run away!
He raised his hand and as expected her eyes widened and her hands were already trying to get hold of anything strong so that she could protect herself. He could already see her grip on the night lamp and a nefarious smile formed on his lips as if he was challenging her to show her guts to him.
He flicked her forehead and she already raised the lamp that was on the table beside her. But before she could smash it on his head, she was finally enlighted with the consequences of her actions and her hands stopped midway.
“What are you doing?” he raised his head and stared at the lamp that was in the mid air and then at her face that was completely red, yet he did not know it was embarrassment or rage!
“Ah.. that! I was trying to clean the dust on it when you came here.
I was just showing you how dirty it is!” She brought the lamp closer to her face and rubbed one of her fingers on it yet not a single grain of dust was found.
It was spotting clean that her smile turned ugly when she looked at his probing eyes and gulped again. When he that she would finally apologize, she covered it up again, and replied with an awkward smile on her face,
“See, how much have I cleaned now! That’s how it should be from the start!” Rafael wanted to laugh at her self righteous tone and her courage to lie so absurdly.

Rolling his eyes at her cheekiness, he sat down as he could not call her out when she was looking at him with such a pleading gaze.
Her eyes shone like a sly fox, gleeful that she had been successful in fooling him when he pulled her hands and forced her to sit behind him.
Her eyes widened at the sudden turn of events when she fell straight into his lap.
Looking at him, like a scared bunny looking at the beast, she gulped. Fear started to crawl in her eyes again when she realized that they were only a breath away.
The proximity was too much for her to handle it. She wanted to push him but she did not want to fall into trouble once she had solved the matter of the lamp, that she could only wait for a second to see what he was upto.
When she had thought of his actions, a lot of wild thoughts started to fill her mind, but never had she thought that he would bend to pull her feet closer and place them on the sofa.
He stared at the red blisters as if he was staring at his mortal enemy. His eyes had narrowed and cold started to form on his face.
“That.. I was just checking it. I didn’t mean to…”
“Did you get blisters due to heels?” He cut her off in the mid sentence and she bowed her head like a child that was reprimanded due to the mistake of others but nodded her head.
“You don’t need to smell them but apply an oint
