Chapter 24

Book:Wanting Her Back Published:2024-6-8

I exited the bathroom after finishing my shower. Because I was the only one in my room, I did not even bother to put a towel on my body. I also close my bedroom window before entering the restroom to ensure that no one else sees me naked.
When I got out of the restroom, my room was dark. My brows furrowed in surprise. Before I took a shower, I recall turning on the light in my bedroom. I do not recall shutting it.
I stepped up to the light switch and flipped it on. Perhaps I simply forgot to turn it on. With a shake of my head, I express my dissatisfaction with the situation. When the light was turned on, it illuminated the entire area around my room.
When I turned on the light, I walked back to my bed.
Because my room”s light switch is near the door, I do not see much inside when I am here. I am humming and shaking my ass when my eyes abruptly widen as a result of what I have seen.
Alessandre has taken up residence in my bed! His face was buried in my pillow.
“Ahhh!” I yelled angrily. What is he doing in this place?!
When he heard my loud cry, he immediately awoke. With a slight rubbing of his eyes, he smirked. For a little moment, he appears perplexed at me. He adjusts his eyes to the light by blinking many times.
For the love of Pete, I am not wearing anything! I screamed even more vehemently.
I am not sure how to conceal my physique. I am undecided about whether I will hide my chest or my womanhood.
With his eyes wide open, he glanced at me. Perhaps he was taken aback by what he saw. From my face to my body, his gaze caressed me. The way he gazed at me made me shiver.
I could not help but shout. He instantly approached me and covered my mouth, effectively silenced me. I tried to get away from his clutches, but I could noy since one of my hands was covering my torso. He told me to be quiet, but I was deafeningly deafeningly deafeningly deaf.
When I heard footsteps outside my room, I stopped fighting to break free from his grip.
“I heard you yell, Anna. Is everything in order?” outside the door, I heard Aunt Lila”s soft voice. I took a deep breath and swallowed hard. Due of my anxiousness, I was unable to speak immediately. I feel like my heart can come out of my chest any moment from now due of its quick thumping.
Aunt Lila is outside my room, while my son and I are inside, and I am not dressed. What would she think if she came upon us in this predicament?
If they saw us in this scenario, instead of getting married in December, they could get us married immediately. I am not even going to try to think about it.
Alessandre gradually took his hand away from my mouth. He even told me not to yell or complain again.
“Anna? Are you all right?” Aunt Lila inquired again, and I almost jumped with fear.
“Ahm, Aunt Lila, I am alright; I just spotted a cockroach flying about my room, but I killed it.” I stated.
As I uttered it, my lips and entire body trembled. I can feel the cool breeze from the air conditioner, which has given me the chills all over my body.
“All right, honey.” She said, “Goodnight.”
I was ready to breathe a sigh of relief when I realized I still had an issue as I heard her footsteps walking away from my room.
When I could not hear Aunt Lila”s footsteps any longer, I turned to her good son, who was now staring at my chest, and I could not help but swear. Shit! I am not a swearer, but in this situation, I think I can use all the swear words I know.
“Pervert! Turn around!” I snarled at him, but I could not shout because I was scared Auntie and Uncle Sandro would hear me.
He smirked and remarked, “You are brilliant at fabricating falsehoods, huh?”
I lock my gaze on him. He laughed as he turned away, raising his two palms as if surrendering. He is laughing at me, as seen by his shoulder trembling. I dashed into my walk-in closet, sprinting. I heard Alessandre”s taunting laugh before I could close the door.
As I walked into my walk-in closet, my chest rose and fell. I gripped the wall to keep from falling because my knees were weakening from the shame.
He caught me in the act of being naked! He just saw my complete body, which was naked! God! I no longer have anything to hide from him.
I believe he even noticed my mole on my chest as well.
I gathered myself as I remembered what had transpired. Idiot! Stupid! Fool!
Because of my enormous embarrassment, all I want is for the earth to swallow me or for aliens to abduct me and transport me to Mars. Until now, it has been like a broken plaque that keeps replaying what happened previously.
I wanted to smack my head against the wall, hoping to forget about it when I turned around, but I did not. It was as if I already have it tattooed on my brain. As I sat on the floor, I was extremely depressed.
That was the most blundering and humiliating moment of my life.
I am not sure why I did not wrap a towel around my body. I mean, what good is it if I do not use it? I might not be so humiliated if I had not just given in to my laziness and picked up the towel on the rack earlier. Alessandre would not have recognized me if I had been completely naked.
How am I supposed to deal with him now?! I am sure I will only remember him seeing me naked whenever I see him. You are a knucklehead!
My mind flies as I get dressed. I just picked up the white over sized t shirt and a pajama and suited that after I put on my underwear.
When I got dressed, I sat down on the floor once more. I am undecided about coming out of my walk-in closet. I did not want to go out because I was frightened Alessandre would still be there. I don”t want to see him right now as much as possible.
At these times, I am sure he was laughing at me for my foolishness. I was on the verge of crying from shame and nervousness. I knelt down and lowered my face to my knees. When I close my eyes, I see my naked body, Alessandre”s shocked face, and his smiling expression as he watches my naked body, as well as what happened before.
As I waited for Alessandre to leave my room, I was in this position.
I am not sure if he is already come out or not. I decided to go out after more than an hour. Perhaps he is already gone. It is almost ten o”clock in the evening, so I am sure he is already gone to his own room to sleep. Yes, you are accurate.
I stood up and patted myself on the back. My legs were slightly sore after sitting on the floor for such a long time.
To relax, I took a few deep breaths. I went to the door of my walk-in closet once I was sure I was calm. I placed my ear to the door to see if Alessandre was still there. I didn”t hear any crackling, so I snoozed.
My chest throbbed less when I made sure that Alessandre had left my room.
I opened the door of my walk in closet. I was assured that no Alessandre would reach me in my room. It was good that he left. When I closed the door behind me, I almost jumped when I turned around and saw Alessandre”s smiling face. I would have almost fallen if I had not just grabbed the doorknob. My eyes widened as I stared at him.
“I was under the impression you were making the clothes you were going to wear. You took such a long time to leave the room.” He grinned as he continued, “It took you one hour, fourteen minutes, and forty-six seconds to get out of that room.” I could not answer right away since I was still stunned that he was still in my room.
“H-How come you are still here?” I inquire, my voice trembling.
When he gazed at me from head to toe, I held my breath. My entire body was trembling. As I said it, my lips trembled.
Anna, you need to calm down. You were embarrassed in the past, and that individual may still be laughing at you now. I attempted to relax, even though I knew it was impossible because simply being in his presence causes my heart to race. I took a deep breath and relaxed.
Acting as if what had happened before had had no effect on me, as if him seeing me naked had had no influence on me, I reasoned, would decrease my humiliation.
All I have to do now is act as though the situation from earlier does not concern me. Yes, it appears to be simple, but it is not.
“However, you look a lot better without your clothing on,” Alessandre observed.
He did not respond to my question. I kept myself from blushing in embarrassment because of what he said, but I guess I could not control everything. I inhaled deeply before feigning a wide smile at him.
“Is that correct? So, thank you,” I murmured, a smile on my face.
He was taken aback by what I did. His pupils dilated somewhat. He must not have expected such an outburst from me. Perhaps what he insisted on would make me feel too humiliated by what had occurred.
I strolled over to my bed and sat down, without taking my gaze away from him. I grinned quietly as I watched his surprised expression. As a result, my trembling was a little lessened.
He just had a few seconds to recover. He grins at me once again. He stared at me for a long time without saying anything. I cocked my head to look at him.
“So? Please pardon me, but you are now free to leave my room. I need to go to bed early because,” I explained with a broad smile. I faked to yawn and slightly squinted my eyes.
His grin widened as a result of what I said. As he got closer to me, I could not help but frown.
Here is my racing heartbeat again. He isapproaching me as if he is a predator stalking his prey. When he came to a complete stop in front of me, I held my breath. He leaned in close to me and drew his body closer to me.
With a scratchy voice, he muttered, “I am not going anywhere but here in your room.” His lips even brush toward my ear.
After that, he walked away from me. I noticed that his right hand was already grasping one of my pillows when I looked at it. My brow furrowed in disbelief at what he”d done.
“Can you tell me what you are doing?” I inquire, my brows wrinkled.
With my glance, I followed his gesture. He shifted his weight to the other side of my bed. He placed the cushion he had taken there.
I assumed he was just going to fix it and then depart, but I was mistaken. He grins at me and then leaps onto my bed. I was taken aback and looked at him in disbelief. What the hell is going on here?
“What do you think you are up to?” I asked confused.
He had his eyes closed. He did not address my inquiry. I grew increasingly irritated with him over time.
“Hey! Return to your room! Sleep in your own room if you have one!” I explained.
I shook him when he did not move. Irritated, he awoke and glared at me, but I refused to be intimidated by him.
“What brings you here?” when I asked him, I was irritated.
“Alessandre, you have your own room.” I told him, “Go there and do not bother me anymore.” I am irritated.
He rolled his eyes at me as he opened his eyes. What he did astounded me. When he did that, he came across as a spoilt gay.
He did not blink as he continued, “Here I will sleep tonight.” What he said had angered me. Is that what I heard? Is he going to sleep here tonight? Because of what he said, I was stunned into silence for a few moments.
I flashed him a deadly gaze when I regained my senses.
“You will not be able to sleep here. What did you consume that has you acting strangely?” I murmured, my face irritated.
He turned a blind eye to me and disregarded me once more. To relax myself, I take a tight grasp on the bed sheet. He had walked into my room without asking permission and discovered me naked. Now he is going to suggest he will sleep in my room? Is he the real deal? Alessandre had to be insane.
“Are you serious?! Alessandre, you cannot sleep here!” I could not help but yell at him. The words that come out of his mouth make my blood boil. He is being obnoxious once more.
“When you speak my name, it sounds seductive,” he replied, smiling. I shivered. Isn”t this man”s brain already messed up?
I grabbed a pillow and smacked him across the face with it. Because I was so irritated with him, I could not control myself any longer.
“What the fuck is going on?!”
He hissed at me, ” he said. As he gripped the pillow I had used to hit him, his brow furrowed. I locked my gaze on him. I tried to push him out of my bed but he did not even budge. I just kept a calm expression on my face as I gazed at him.
“Fine, you sleep here,” I finally answered, tiring of his obstinacy. He gave a kind smile. While getting out of my own bed, I was upset. He irritates me.
He gripped my hand just as I was ready to walk away. As I turned to face him, my brow wrinkled.
“Can you tell me what it is once more?” I posed a query to him.
“Where you”re going?” as he looked at me, his brow furrowed as well.
I give him a mocking smile. Even though he was grabbing my room from me, he truly wanted to ask me where I was going.
“Most likely in the guest room,” I cynically respond. When he heard that, he scowled. I was dragged back to the bed by him. I took a seat on the bed”s side.
Fortunately, his pulling did not cause any damage to my buttocks. I gave him the death stare.
“You”re not going anywhere. You”ll be sleeping here. Are you a moron? If you have your own room, why would you sleep in the guest room?” he said, irritably smirking.
I cocked my head to look at him. Wow, coming from him. He”s the knucklehead of the two of us.
Despite the fact that he has his own room, he still tries to force his way into mine. He should pay close attention to what he is saying because it appears that he is describing himself.
Maybe he just can”t seem to accomplish anything sensible with his life, and he”s so bored with it that he thought of pissing on me.
He crunched his nose and remarked, “You nag like Mom.” I just give him a mocking glance.
“Fine! My room”s air conditioning is broken, so I”ll sleep here till it”s fixed,” he grumbled. Perhaps my nagging angered him as well. I give him a blank stare.
“So? You could forget that this property has a lot of extra rooms.”I answered, rolling my eyes at him, “You may choose from any of them, not just my room.”
He muttered to me, gritting his teeth, “You feisty woman.” I simply put my tongue out at him.
“Eh, here is where I”d like to sleep.” He said, “You can”t do anything with that.”
“That”s why I”m going to sleep in a different room.” As I tried to free myself from his clutches, I murmured, “This is where you want to sleep.” But he never let me go.
“You”re a tough cookie, lady. Are you aware of this? Don”t leave when I say don”t leave. Do you get what I”m saying?” He murmured, his voice solemn and forewarning.
What he said astounded me. He is enraged by my defiance and insistence on sleeping in the other room. I simply remained silent and took a deep breath.
“But…” I argued, but he only stared at me, his face solemn. There was nothing I could do but nod. Is it still possible for me to refuse if he appears to be warning me? As though he was implying that if I did not agree with what he said, he would harm me.
“Do not put my patience to the test, Anna,” he warned. After that, he returned to his bed and let me go.
“It is not like we are going to do something sexy; if you insist, I will give you my body, but I am not going to compel you to do things with me,” he continued. What he said made my face crumble.
Really? If I keep insisting? Is he completely insane? Why would I want anything to happen between us? He is, after all, very light.
I lay alongside him, my face scrunched up. It is unlikely that I will have a choice.
