Chapter 4 Drunken State
Reyna point of view
It had taken Theo three minutes to get my drunk ass into his Ferrari. He didn’t say a word, not even when I laced my fingers into his hair and yanked it. Why did I do that? I have no idea. His hair just looked so lush and tempting, and I wanted to touch it, and I was also drunk.
Theo drove like a maniac, but I could see, even in my drunk state, that he was a master at that. I don’t know if he was ignoring me or concentrating on driving, because anytime I asked him a question he didn’t respond.
“Fine!” I said after he ignored my last question. “Ignore me all you want, grumpy. Just tell me you’ve got drinks at home”, I said, and again he ignored me. I sighed, it was frustrating to talk to someone and they just ignored you. For a moment, I considered scaring him for fun, but I realized he was driving and doing that could mean our deaths.
“So tell me, do you have a girlfriend?” I asked, but was met with stony silence—again.
“Gosh, you’re a dork. So boring, no fun. What year were you born?” I asked. He slammed his foot on the brakes and I looked out the window to see that we were in front of a mansion that looked like Bill Gates lived in it.
“This is your house. It’s even bigger than my ex-husband’s”, I said, and he turned. His blue eyes were like springs.
“Ex-husband?” He asked and I smiled.
“So the cat had given his tongue back, huh? I thought you were ignoring me”, I said, and he shook his head. He stared ahead, drumming his fingers on the steering wheel.
“I am not ignoring you. It’s just tactics, it’s best to let a drunk person talk to themselves, they’ll sober up” he stared at me and I chuckled.
“I am not drunk” I said, and his lips lifted into a cocky smile. The first time I had seen him smile and, oh my day........he looked so handsome. He couldn’t be real, could he?
“Yes you are” he said, and I frowned.
“No I am not” I insisted. His blue eyes danced with humor.
“You reek of alcohol, you are clearly drunk” he said, and I grinned at him.
“Are you going to have sex with me then? I heard sex in the car is a thrilling experience”, I said. He looked off guard for a moment, trying to see if I was serious, and I was.
“No” he was smiling fully now, and I was starting to feel weird in my stomach. Like something was flying about in it.
“Why?” I asked and he shrugged.
“I don’t have sex with drunk girls,” he said. I stared into those sapphire eyes. I couldn’t deny how lost I was in them. I don’t know if it was being drunk that was affecting me or something else, but part of me wanted to let
go of myself completely even if it meant rolling in the sheets with a stranger.
“What if the drunk girl wants you to?” I said, eyeing his lips and he smiled.
“She’ll sleep it off because I won’t do that” he said, and I raised a brow......strange.
“What if she begs you, begs you like she’s going to die if you don’t do it.” She said and Theo’s eyes darkened with intensity.
“That’s different. I........,,”
“Please,” I begged. Theo stared at me in surprise. I leaned in till I was a breath away.
“Please kiss me, make love to me, do anything you want, I just need to forget. Please, please” I pleaded, with tears, and he sighed. He brushed loose hair from my face. For a person I just met hours ago, it felt like I had known him a long time.
“I want to kill the man who broke your heart,” he said. His eyes roamed my face and settled on my lips.
“I don’t care about him, I want you to kiss me,” I said. I could literally feel our breath fusing.
He brushed his against mine softly, but I wanted more. I dug my fingers into his hair and pulled him closer, deepening the kiss. He tasted like a drug, intoxicating my brain and doing crazy things to my body. His hands found
the curve of my butt and squeezed them. I involuntarily let out a moan and pressed into him. I wanted more, I wanted more than just kissing.
I reached for his shirt, but he grabbed my hands and stopped me. His hands were as strong as pincers.
“That’s enough” he said, his hair was messy where I had dug my fingers into. His eyes were fierce like he was fighting something inside him.
“What? Am I not woman enough to make you even want me?” I was offended now and he sighed.
“If I give in to what I am feeling, I’ll make love to you all night. I won’t be able to stop” he growled. His eyes burned bright with intensity.
“Then do it. It’s what I want”, I pressed my breast into him and he sighed. He pushed open the car door and got out and opened the door on my side. I tried to walk on my own, but my feet wobbled, and I fell hard on the paved ground.
“Shit! I am so fucking clumsy. I am so stupid! Stupid” I said, breaking down into a sob. Theo scooped me into his arms and carried me inside. I buried my face in his chest as I let the tears flow, but at the same time I felt so safe in his arms, the feel of his heart beating, his warmth.
That was the last thing I remembered before I fell asleep. But the rhythm of his heart kept playing in my dreams.
