28 Chapter 28
Aiden rubbed his hand across his face and slowly stood from the bed. He wasn’t one bit embarrassed, rather, he was pissed, but he couldn’t let his grandma know that,
“I guess I forgot to lock the door,” He said, clearing his throat.
Grandma Nari scoffed, “Yes, grandson, you did forget to lock the door. She replied.
There was a tense silence between them before he spoke up. “Um, did you want something. Grandma?” Aiden asked, subtly looking down between his legs to make sure he wasn’t giving his grandma a scare.
“Oh, no, I just wanted to say goodnight to my daughter–in–law, but I guess I chose the wrong time, she chucked lightly, walking closer to him.
Aiden raised a brow at her. “Yes, Grandma. You sure did choose the wrong time, Aiden replied to
her in the same manner she had replied to him.
Grandma Nari furrowed her brows and peered at him, holding his shoulder and staring at him scrutinizingly.
Aiden frowned, confused by the way his grandma was looking at him.
“What’s the problem, Grandma?” He asked, gently removing her hands from his shoulder.
“Oh well” She sighed, shaking her head.
“I just never thought you’d be this, this… she paused, chuckling,
“This what grandma?” Aiden asked curiously even though he already had an idea of what she
wanted to say.
“Well, never mind, goodnight, dear. Go easy on her tonight, Grandma Nari said and walked
toward the door.
But before she stepped out of the room, she suddenly turned and said to Aiden. “I never thought you’d be this Libidionous,” She said and quickly closed the door.
Alden chuckled, shaking his head.
The to his
He never thought so too. He looked toward the bathroom, and a stupid thought mind, but he quickly discarded it. The fact that he and Ariel were getting somewhere earlier doesn’t mean he should invade her privacy while she showered.
He walked over to the wardrobe and opened the lower drawer, taking out two pieces of clothing. he had forgotten to give them to her before she ran into the bathroom.
Aiden sighed, sitting on the edge of the bed. He was pondering over his relationship with Ariel, What was this they were doing? What was this attraction between them?
He swore to himself that it wasn’t love, it couldn’t be, far from it. He was sure he hated her from
the moment he saw her, or didn’t he? Of course he did, she was a woman, and he hated women.
Then, how does he explain these feelings he feels deep in his bones each time he sees her?

Should he continue acting on his impulses? Or should he step back? Maybe this was one of her schemes, trying to act uninterested in him so that he would believe she didn’t want his money
and fall for her.
He scoffed as he thought about it, then frowned again. Something bothered him.
If he was aware that she wanted him for his money, then why did he still want her?
Inside the bathroom, Ariel had just finished bathing, and after tying a white new towel around her chest, she realized that she didn’t have anything to wear.
“Oh no,” She muttered as she stared at herself through the wall–length fogged mirror, “Am I supposed to walk put like this to him? She thought quietly.
Her cheeks were flushed from both the shower and the embarrassment she was about to face.
She could only hope that Grandma Nari had left the room, if not, she was going to run right under the bed and hide there till everyone forgot what happened.
She picked up her courage and took a deep breath as she stood in front of the door, after counting down from three, she opened the door and walked into the bedroom.
Aiden was still sitting on the bed when Ariel walked out of the bathroom, he instantly raised his head to look up at her.
Seeing Ariel in a white towel made him forget all he’s been thinking about. He slowly stood and strode over to her, his eyes burning a hole into her body.
Ariel felt a knot of anxiety in her stomach as Aiden approached her, slowly stepping away as he came closer.
Ariel gasped softly when the back of her feet touched Aiden’s wardrobe. She’s been trapped.
Aiden closed the space between them, his gaze unreadable as he stared all over her body.
“Tying a towel like this,” He hooked one of his fingers into the towel around her chest.
“Are you trying to seduce your husband?” He asked, his breath fanning the side of her face.
Ariel knew she was vulnerable in her current state; her towel could fall to the floor if she tried to struggle to escape with him, so she chose to be careful with her movements.
She didn’t remove his hand from her towel, rather, she focused on steadying her breath before. she spoke.
“I don’t want to seduce you, Mr-”
“Shh!” Aiden covered her mouth with his hand.
“If you call me Mr. Chaz one more time, guess what I’ll do to you,” He asked, a threat underlying his voice.
Ariel gulped quietly. She could feel the warning in his voice, and she wouldn’t dare to go against him at that moment. She didn’t want to know what he’d do to her… she feared she might end up begging him to do more of whatever it was he wanted with her.
“I don’t know,” She replied softly.

Aiden nodded, then whispered into her car, “Call me Mr. Chaz one more time, and I’ll bend you over that bed and fuck the right name into you. Did you hear me?” He asked in a husky voice, the look on her face telling him that she wasn’t entirely against the idea.
Ariel bit her lips, a sensual gasp threatening to come as her response to Aiden’s promise. She was turned on, and it was only the first night with Aiden. This man was something else; how was she supposed to survive in a room with the man for the period Grandma Nari was staying with
them?
He caressed her face, his eyes glued on her lips between her teeth. “If you still have this look on your face when I come out of the bathroom, I’d be forced to fuck you, little wife,” He raised his hand and placed the two–piece nightwear on her chest, then turned away and walked into the
bathroom.
Ariel sighed, releasing the breath she’d been holding since she walked out of the bathroom.
“That was close… she whispered and looked down at the clothes in her hands.
She frowned.
What kind of material was this?
It was a two–piece silk black nightwear, but, the problem was, Aiden could simply see her naked body if he looked closely. The material of the nightwear was damn transparent!
As she stared at herself in Aiden’s floor–to–ceiling mirror, she could clearly see her nipples and her smooth–shaven pussy, and that would have been manageable if the pants were long. But they were so short, stopping right below her ass curve, she wouldn’t even need to bend over to sample her ass to Aiden; a simple walk would do that for her.
Ariel sighed and released her hair from the tight bun she had tied it when she was about to shower. Her hair was long, reaching her mid–back, she gently brought it over each of her shoulders, using it to cover her visit nipples.
She snapped her head to the bathroom door when she heard the unlocking sound, and in the blink of an eye, Ariel couldn’t believe she was that swift with the way she dived onto the bed and went under the dark sheets, she quickly adjusted her head on the pillow and turned away from Aiden, pretending to be fast asleep.
Aiden
n came out of the bathroom and saw Ariel lying quictly on the bed. He secretly smiled to himself when he noticed her unsteady breathing, he wasn’t fooled.
He wouldn’t have bothered wearing his navy blue joggers inside the bathroom. He hated dressing up in the bathroom, but because he thought Ariel would be uncomfortable with him dressing in front of her, he had dressed in there, but here she was, backing him and pretending to sleep, just because she didn’t want to see him naked.
He walked over to the bed and called her softly, but she didn’t respond.
“Ariel, I need you to move; you are lying on my side of the bed,” Aiden said, louder this time.
Ariel closed her eyes tightly, clenching her fists and toes beneath the sheets and praying he left her alone.

She kept her face as calm as possible, hoping he bought her act.
Aiden smiled at her effort and decided not to burst her act.
He suddenly lowered his face to her neck and took a long sniff, sighing in contentment.
e me.” He
“I like it when you smell placed a feathery kiss on her neck before walking to the other side of the bed.
Ariel was frozen from the unexpected kiss, she heard the bed dip beside her and couldn’t contro her frenzied heartbeat.
It was going to be a long night….
