Last time Sasha expressed interest in him, but he rejected her! This time he had too much to drink and unexpectedly Sasha showed up, pouring some alcohol into his mouth.
Brendon didn’t have time to spit it out and had to swallow it down.
At first, Brendon was rational. He wanted to get away from Sasha, but then he knew Ranita was there so he held back and listened as she cursed someone out.
Brendon’s heart swelled with sweetness again.
But soon after, something felt off. His heart raced and something inside him seemed stirred up. When Ranita provoked him further, he couldn’t control himself anymore.
He had been thinking about Ranita for four years now.
And now she was in his arms, by his lips, under his control and entangled with him.
“Ranita…” Brendon called her name as he bit down hard on her neck causing pain that brought her back to reality momentarily.
Was she crazy?
This was a bar booth!
Ranita pushed at Brendon while pulling at her own clothes saying, “Brendon, calm down!” She felt the heat coming off of him which made her eyes widen in shock.
Damn it!
What did Sasha give Brendon?
“Brendon! Calm down! What did Sasha give you?” Ranita held onto the man’s neck and asked loudly, but the man seemed annoyed by her chatter and lowered his head to kiss her.
After much effort, Ranita finally seized a moment and bit down on Brendon’s collarbone with all her strength. The bite was as forceful as she could muster, and it caused Brendon to regain some of his senses from the pain.
He gasped for breath, “Ranita, I’m sorry…”
Brendon didn’t want to, but he couldn’t harm Ranita, so he said, “You should go, don’t worry about me!”
Ranita glared at him, “Shut up!”
If Brendon stayed in the bar like this, he would be an easy target for those women! Just the thought of it made Ranita uncomfortable.
“Can you leave?”
Seeing Ranita’s furious glare and her slightly flushed face, which showed a hint of alcohol-induced distress, Brendon nodded, “It’s just… uncomfortable.”
“Even if it’s uncomfortable, you still have to leave!” Ranita didn’t want to be watched! No, no! Ranita warned herself not to overthink or make assumptions, just send him back and hurry back to see Ayaan!
Ranita straightened her clothes, supported Brendon, and took him outside, putting him in the back seat of the car. “Buckle up, I’ll take you back to the hotel!”
Ranita knew where he was staying, so she stepped on the gas and drove him to the hotel.
“I’ll call Caleb and have him get a doctor for you…” Ranita hadn’t finished speaking when she was pulled into the room. Brendon closed the door behind her and pressed her against it.
The room was dim, with only the sound of their breathing.
Her face was cupped by the man’s hands, and she was kissed deeply once again.
In the darkness, all senses were heightened, and Ranita could almost hear her own wild heartbeat and uncontrollable breath. The corner of her lips formed a delicate sound, becoming the catalyst for this ambiguous encounter.
The strong smell of alcohol surrounded her.
Seemingly wanting to intoxicate her completely.
At first, Ranita tried to struggle, but in the face of Brendon’s strength, her resistance was like throwing a small pebble into a lake, causing no waves but rather making Brendon even more agitated…
“Ranita… I’m in so much pain…” Brendon knew something was wrong; the alcohol shouldn’t have made him this out of control!
“Ranita, hold me, kiss me.” Brendon’s cold voice gained a tinge of desire, becoming low and captivating, which made Ranita’s legs go weak.
