chapter 65

“You are the most beautiful woman I have ever seen, my love” his love? hmm, I also like the sound of that. Just on cue, the two wolves we forgot was living under our roof came scampering in. The jumped on me, let us not forget I was still bare from the stomach down

I pulled away from Xavier and ran to the bathroom to get dressed, I took a shower and slipped on Xavier’s sweater that was laying on the towel rack, I got out and saw Xavier playing with his puppies, he gets over an erection fast, Damn I was still into it, I wanted more. He laughed when one started licking his face. I slipped into the closet then put on my underwear. I think I am just going to embrace Xavier’s scent tonight and let it accompany it to my dreams.

I joined him in bed and laid my head on his chest looking at the puppies as they played with him and climbed his body in every possible way. His heartbeat was steady and normal paced like a lullaby in my ears, slowly sailing me off to sleep. The white puppy settled down in front of me, I pecked its snout. And fell asleep.

“No, it can’t be” I stared at my underwear, My monthly visitor had decided it was the right time to visit, well it had been more than a month since I last saw it but I was hoping it had disappeared forever. I washed the blood off with cold water, before doing the necessary.

I took a shower then wrapped my towel around my body, this is probably the most disgusting thing I will ever do but okay. I walked down to the gym and saw Xavier going pull-ups while the puppies were running around playing what looked like tag with each other. I took a moment to admire Xavier’s beautiful muscles then I realized I might have bee dripping some blood on the floor. With self-consciousness, I closed my legs and my cheeks literally flushed with blood

“Xavier” I called out and he stopped what he was doing,

“Good morning,” he said and jumped off the bar walking to me, the black puppy brought a towel to him, he just brought the puppy and they were already so smart, I think I am falling in love.

“Oh thank you... what is his name”

“I am not sure yet, Xavier”

“Yes,” he pulled my wet hair away from my face slowly.

“Xavier, please let me focus, I want to tell you that. I- I- I err I”

“You what”

“I am, Oh God this is so embarrassing, just read my mind” he looked at me with a realization

“You are on your period,” he asked

“Yes that, you don't have to say it out loud,” I said and looked away, Xavier laughed

“Come on” he held my hand.

“You have sanitary towels laying around the house”

“No, just in a particular place, I knew a female was coming to live with me when I brought you here, Winter, I am not stupid” he led me to the closet in our room and opened a little box. Well, you know what happened after if you do not, YOU ARE WAY TOO YOUNG

“Get out,” I said

“A little bit nicer and throw in a thank you,” he said

“Fine thank you, Xavier, can you please go out before I smear my blood on your face” Xavier gave me a disgusted plus surprised look, “I am sorry”

“I think I am going to hate the cramp filled Winter”

“Yup, and guess what, she is already hating you”

“Right” he walked out of the closet.

*****************************

“I am so fucking annoyed Xavier” I walked into the kitchen in the afternoon, my hair was piled up in a messy bun on top of my head, and my body was clad in one of Xavier’s shirts and a pair of leggings. I opened the fridge and took out a coke sitting in front of him.

“Oh for me” he took it and took a huge swig after opening it.

“What the hell Xavier that was mine” I pulled it from him and drank it,

“Are we going to pretend that wearing my clothes is a thing”

“Believe it, baby, it has been a thing since the moment you kidnapped me I was just shy,” I said taking another swig.

“Since Gillian is not here yet, why don’t we order Indian food”

“You like Indian food?” I asked

“Yes why”

“No reason, you do not strike me as someone that likes Indian food you look like an Italian loving type of guy, coming to think of it you look Italian, you look like Alessandro dellisola, that Italian model”

“I do not, but I am flattered that you think I look like a model”

“You should be one” I stood up and went to whisper into his ear “You should be a Calvin Klein model”

“I have done a few shoots maybe when I was about four hundred and forty-three, I am not really sure”

“Thank you for reminding me that you are at least twenty-five times older than me, where are Apricot and Apple when you need them”

“You are naming wolves apricot and apple”

’“Deal with it, now Xavier tell me exactly how you plan on ordering Indian food with no phone”

“I have a laptop for a reason”

“You have everything figured out don’t you”

“Yeah I do, don’t I?"

**************************************

“God you get me” I ate the chicken tikka masala in delight. I looked and saw Xavier putting on a coat.

“Where are you going”

“To work”

“On a Sunday?”

“Yes, I have to go sightseeing”

“Can I come with” I ran to him and slipped my hand into the other sleeve of his jacket

“No” he deadpanned

“Come on, please”

“It might be too dangerous for you”

“I hope you are not into anything illegal”

“Why would that come to your mind, of course not,” he said and pulled my hand out of his jacket, I slipped it in again

"What exactly do you do,” he removed my hand

“I thought you would have figured out by now that I am an architect, I do not bring you to my company because you are clumsy”

“I AM NOT” I stuck my hand into his jacket

"You might knock over models, and I can’t bring my plans home because of the same reason”

“Give me some credit, I will not purposely knock down your hard work” I removed my hand from his jacket and walked away. He pulled me back to his chest

“I know you won’t but that is kind of where the clumsiness comes in, you won’t do it with intention”

“Just go away” I pushed away from him

"Baby girl, forgive me” he smiled “hmm, I bought you Indian food”

“Wipe that smile off your face, I can’t stay mad when you flash it” he smiled wider “Go” I put the coat on his shoulders and pushed him out the door

"Don’t go to hell like the last time” I wonder when it stopped being 'GO TO HELL' when did it become 'Don't go to hell like last time'?
