Chapter 068
Akira's POV.
My eyes bulged when his breath met my face and his lips were just an inch from mine, With a slight move, our lips would collide, I pushed him suddenly to his shoulder and his back when to the chair, I didn't attempt to jump off his laps, he looks at me, confuse, "you are not changing your mind are you?" He asked with his eyes not leaving mine. "That is not fair, I did my part, and now..." I shake my head.
"I am not changing my mind but aren't we supposed to do it inside," I managed to have a steady voice when I was already breaking down inside, this isn't a good idea, why did my laud mouth voice that rubbish out?
"Akira, why are you torturing me?" His voice came husky with his fingers still on my waist as he fell his head on my shoulder, his breath was haggard. My brows furrow how is it that I am hurting him? I wasn't doing anything wrong, I moved my face, looking at him when his face raised from my shoulder.
"What did I do this time?" I asked he was about to say something when someone tapped on the windscreen of the car. It's Mr. Williamson, I move from Wolfie's lap in embarrassment, even though I know the glass is tinted he can't see us.
Wolfie waited for me to settle on my seat before he let down the glass looking at his butler, "Sir Logan, the wines had been delivered?" Mr. Williamson said.
"Alright, we will be there," he said, he returned his gaze to me, but Mr. Williamson was still standing there looking at Wolfie having that strange look. I wondered why he was looking at him
"Sir Logan, are you sure about..."
"It's fine, Akira will be the one tasting it not me," he said before Mr. Williamson nodded his head and walked towards the house.
"I guess we should go inside, they might be waiting for your verdict," his baritone voice made me giggle inwardly, I pulled the door in excitement forgetting how embarrassed I was a while ago.
Wolfie walked behind me, the Butler pulled the door for me, and I walked into the building ahead of Wolfie, my eyes caught the box of wine, and my excitement pricked up, I was already anticipating how it would feel to be the first to taste a wine before anyone else when Wolfie open the box.
Apart from having new wines in it, there was one made in the forties and it was the most expensive wine in the whole of the city, that one was sold in Lady Cassandra's bar and she didn't joke with it. Vida and I know that is expensive because she had never failed to remind us, that even if she sold our entire family, she would not be able to get the money for the wine. "This is the grandest of all wine, taste it, and you will like it," Mr. Williamson said from behind, I felt embarrassed, probably because he saw my curiosity and the anticipation on my face while looking at the wine. I was hankering for it.
"Put them in the wine cellar," he said suddenly and my face crumpled, I hit his shoulder suddenly not wanting to hide the excitement in me, wanting to taste it.
"Why? I thought we were giving the verdict now?" I said out of nowhere, he moved his gaze to me, although I am not much of a drinker and I don't think I have tasted any alcoholic beverages until Ethan drugged me.
"Yes, but I will let Riley and Austin taste it, they are good with wine," I frown.
"I worked for it," I blurted out and he looked at me, having that malicious grin, I rifle my hair feeling embarrassed, I didn't work for it, it was all his doing. He was the one who sang and I haven't even fulfilled my promise. "Fine, I know you are the one that works for it but I motivated you, if I didn't take the bold step to volunteer that you sing, I know you..."
"You sing, sir Logan?" His butler asked and I nodded to him with that bright and accomplished smile.
"Yeah, you needed to hear his voice, his voice was like the..."
"Akira..." He called running his hand on his nape before he glared at Mr. Williamson who was smiling beside us.
"Sorry sir..." He murmured but I ignored him and pulled Wolfie's hand.
"Please, let's taste it, if not the other, but this one, it would be a waste to have a bottle of red wine, especially Cabernet Sauvignon Blanc, and not taste it, I haven't tasted something this special." I said. squinting his eyes, he was contemplating whether to give in, "please..."
"Williamson, you should help us open it," Mr. Williamson gave him a meaningful look before nodding to him.
"Yes sir..." He murmured before his gaze moved to me, having that malicious grin before pulling the bottle, I ignored him while my gaze was focused on the bottle in his hand, suddenly I flicked my tongue across my lips, anticipating the taste.
My gaze suddenly turned to Wolfie when he hissed, I looked at the scowl on his face, was he upset with me? What did I do now? I wanted to ask him the reason he had that expression on his face when I suddenly heard the liquid been pour into a crystal glass, my attention was drawn by it again.
I grabbed my glass, shaking it clockwise before pulling it to my lips and shut my eyes, sniffing the nice aroma, I took a sip on it before I commented having that perfect smile on my lips, "This tastes more pleasant than the way I anticipated it." I lick my lips, Wolfie swallows hard, and then I stretch my glass to Mr. Williamson again, he is about to pour for me when I gesture for him to give me the bottle, "Just give me the bottle, and you can rest I could help myself," I said and this time, Wolfie's gaze met mine.
"Do you plan to finish the wine?" He asked and I smirked at him, pulling the bottle from my lips, and giving him that sheepish smile.
"It's not bad if I do, at least, I am safe with you and I know you are not going to touch me when I am drunk, you wouldn't take advantage of me, in my drunk state. Or are you?" I asked his expression was unfathomable and it was like he choked on my words before he masked his expression.
"I am not some pervert, I don't take advantage of drunk girls." I narrowed my gaze watching him. Checking for every malicious thought in his eyes but there was none, I moved my legs suddenly and placed them on his lap.
"Good then, I could trust you," I said pulling the wine, to my lips and sipping almost too much and almost choked on it.
"Hey easy, you don't have to drink that in one go," I moved close and pulled his face.
"Are you complaining right now?" I asked, with a peal of scornful laughter, while I straddled him completely.
"Akira... What are you doing?" His voice came out guttural.
"Do you know you are very handsome?" I pushed my fingers into his hair, combing them with my fingers, "You are fucking too handsome for a male but you got a bad attitude," the smile wiped off his face when I said the last part, I slapped my hand gently on his face more like I was tapping his cheeks, "stop frowning, it makes you look grumpy, anyways, you still look good in your grumpy state and every female could fall hopelessly in love with you," I said drinking more from the bottle.
"Are you in love with me?" He asked, and I tittered.
"Who wouldn't fall in love with the mystic mask man, my Wolfie, the one my heart longs for, I have always loved you,"
