Chapter 86 Together

Alex and Abi arrived back at the mansion. The sky was already dark and it was starting to get cool. They walked inside into the lounge area and Abi was expecting to see the other three guests but surprisingly, they were nowhere to be found.


"Where are they?" she asked as she looked at Alex.


Alex just shrugged, indicating that he had no idea where the three men were.


Abi was going to ask something more but she was distracted by the mouth watering aroma coming from the dining hall. She followed the smell and almost floated towards the dining hall where all the yummy food was laid out.


Abi was famished as she had used up quite a bit of energy from… well, taming the little monster, so she was nearly drooling by the time she sat down at the table. She completely forgot about Alex for a minute until she saw him walk in and sit on his seat.


Once he sat down, Abi started piling up the food on her plate and started to dig in while Alex merely watched her with an inexplicable expression on his face.


As the pile on her plate decreased, Alex saw more room on her plate so he took bits of cut up fruit and placed on her plate like a nice master patiently feeding his pet.


"Eat more fruit, little lamb," he told her. "You'll need lots of good nutrients in order to become stronger."


Abi looked at him like an obedient little lamb and just nodded because her mouth was too full for her to speak.


After the meal, Abi leaned back as if that would make room in her tummy. She was so stuffed that she didn't know if she would be able to get up from her seat!


Alex rested his head lazily on his knuckles as he continued staring at her. When Abi finally noticed him staring, she stared back at him. "Alex, why are you staring at me like that?" she tilted her head slightly as she asked. "Is there something on my face?" She blinked her big round eyes as she touched her face.


"Hmm… No, I'm just imagining how you would look if you became chubby," he rubbed his chin with his thumb. "I guess… you could look like a cute, round white bun…Maybe as round as white watermelon?"


Abi puffed her cheeks. How could this man say these things to a lady? White watermelons?!


Before Abi could retort, the man suddenly laughed, as if he just got so amused by his very own internal joke. His pleasant chuckle echoed inside the hall and Abi fell in a daze for a moment, before she huffed.


"I'm not going to become fat!" she told him and Alex's laughter slowly died down.


He still looked quite entertained as he held her wrist.


"Well, look at this wrist, Abigail. It's so small. It's like a twig that could be snapped in mere seconds. It's no wonder it couldn't even last for two rounds." His tongue clicked. "You need to eat more, Abigail," he muttered and Abi pulled her hand away from him.


"These wrists will get stronger soon. Just you wait!" she retorted as she closed her hand into a fist and waved it in front of his face like an old grandma telling off some naughty brats.


Alex chuckled again.


"Come here, Abigail," he pulled her and made her sit on his lap.


He took a deep breath as he rested his chin on her shoulder blade, causing Abi to feel her skin tingle at that exact spot.


"P-please, don't." She suddenly tried to get away from him but Alex didn't let go.


"Behave, little lamb."


"B-but… you're sniffing me." She blushed, utterly embarrassed.


"So what if I'm sniffing you?"


"I… I haven't taken a shower yet and I also got sweaty t-taming your little monster a while ago."


Alex let out a throaty chuckle before he sighed and nibbled on her skin.


"Listen little lamb. I like the smell of your sweat, too," he whispered sexily in her ear and Abi's heart almost jumped out from its cage.


"P-please, don't lie! There's no way you would like smelling my sweat!" she protested as she struggled to get away.


"Ahh… what a naughty, little lamb. Fine," he said.


Abi thought that he would let her go but in the next second, he stood up and carried her like a princess as he walked towards the living room and then towards the grand staircase.


"Alex, I can walk. You don't need to carry me," she told him but the man ignored her. She felt like she may have weighed a few kilos more from the dinner she just devoured but the man didn't seem to struggle with her weight, even though there were so many steps from the bottom to the third floor. She wondered, not for the first time, if Alex ever used the elevator in this house or if it was just there for show.


They finally reached her room and he wasn't even heaving! She couldn't believe it! Every time she walked up the stairs, she would already be heaving just after the halfway mark. She would usually take deep breaths to get as much oxygen inside her lungs but this man's breath was as steady as the second hand on clock - just steadily moving at perfect second intervals. This man was a machine! No wonder she couldn't keep up with him. He was like the ultra iron man with lots of stamina!


Inside the room, Abi thought that he would put her down on the bed but to her surprise, the man went straight towards the bathroom.


Abi's eyes started to widen. What was he up to?!


"Uhm… Alex…"


But before she could tell him what she wanted to say, Alex put her down under the shower. Abi looked at him with a confused expression.


"Let's shower together," he told her and Abi froze.
