Chapter 81
Leigh-Ann’s POV
“You wouldn’t want that would you?” He asked and I could feel his gaze on me. I didn’t respond as my mind felt muddled. Kael can’t love- So he believes and has proved it to me severally.
“You just don’t know what you want so stay away” He added and turned to leave.
“I know what I want” I blurted out then looked up. He halted but didn’t turn to face me.
“I don’t care whatever you do to me and you shouldn’t bother if I’m hurting myself. Just let me”
I walked over and stood in front of him without knowing where the guts came from. He didn’t say a word but just stared down at me cause he was way taller.
“You said just for tonight” I reminded him but regretted it afterward. Of course, he said it was just for tonight but I wanted more than that. I wanted more of what he wasn’t willing to give.
I raised my right hand slowly and trailed it on his arms then up to the side of his neck with my eyes never leaving his. I should go away and put myself together but I just couldn’t. It felt like my emotions had overthrown my sense of thinking.
“Kiss me Kael”

Kael’s POV
“You said just for tonight,” She reminded but my mind wasn’t there. Why couldn’t she understand? Did she have to be so clumsy?
For some time I thought she was different from the other girls who came pestering around but she proved differently.
She was so innocent and I hated those types. The last thing I ever wanted was to pull a string with her and trust me, I’m never gonna do that.
She’s just a maid and the fact that she lost her parents at a tender age is what can never make me take advantage of her even when she’s throwing herself at me. People like her get hurt easily and I wouldn’t say I was far from hurting her.
“Kiss me, Kael” Her calm voice broke in, jerking me back to reality. I stared into her silver eyes which held mine.
“I don’t wanna do this with you,” I said and turned to leave but she held me back.
“But this is what I want. Just for tonight remember”
She drew closer to me and held my hands then wrapped them around her waist. She then placed hers on my neck.
“Kiss me, Kael, please”

Leigh-Ann’s POV
Kael’s eyes burned into mine and as usual, his face held no emotions. This is stupid but it was the only thing I wanted. Just for tonight- Kael had said and there was no way I was letting it slip my fingers.
His eyes left mine and landed on my lips. The way he stared at it, I could guess he had a lot going through his mind, and slowly, he lowered his head and I closed my eyes, waiting for the kiss but then, his lips landed on my neck.
Just his warm breath left butterflies in my belly. He planted soft kisses and nuzzles which drove me wild.
What the fuck was he doing? I… I only asked for a kiss.
I tried controlling myself but I think he was getting the best of me. I didn’t even realize when a moan escaped my lips.
“Uh…”
It sounded silly. Damn. What is he doing? It was tickling but at the same time, it left this burning sensation that crept from my hardened nipples to the pit of my stomach and down there.
“Uh… Kael… please let me…”
“You wanted this didn’t you?” He interrupted in a husky voice and I shivered. I sure didn’t want this. I only asked for a kiss.
“Oh…” I cried out as he ate at the hollow of my neck. “Please stop!”
He didn’t respond but looked up at me. I was so nervous that I had to lower my head. I felt so stupid.
“So innocent, so clean” He muttered and I gulped nothing. I wanted to leave. I couldn’t take it anymore.
“I wanna leave, please let me go” I managed to say, hoping he’ll just let me go. This whole idea was insane and I shouldn’t have gone that far.
He can’t love and there’s no way I can force him to. I should’ve listened to him instead of keeping my strong head. Now, I realized so many things and felt so ashamed. I was only hurting myself as he said and it was so true.
Slowly, I felt him release his arms around my waist and I did the same to his shoulders, my hands shaking. I stepped away from him
“Am… am sorry Sir” I muttered apologetically, my voice quivering. He didn’t respond so I rushed off immediately.
I wished the ground could just swallow me up or I could disappear but none of it happened. I paused at the door, recounting everything that just happened. Kael doesn’t like me and it hurts differently. It hurt more than words could say.
My eyes suddenly went wet and I blinked hard to stop the tears from rolling down. I heaved then looked behind and through bleary eyes, I could see Kael standing in front of the window. I just wanted to look at him one more time, the guy that rejected my love, and with that, I turned and walked out, not minding the tears that kept rolling down.
