chapter 17

My body felt numb all over, my head felt light and I felt like I was dying, the last thing I remember was Xavier sinking his sharp demon teeth into my neck, there was a slight draft in the place I was currently laying in, and I could see the lights that kept getting into my eyes the last time I was in this predicament.

My eyes opened slowly and I saw myself laying in the room I found myself in yesterday. Xavier wasn't here though, probably because he knew I was going to strangle him to death immediately I saw him. I had just known this guy for two days and between those two days, I have been killed by him twice.

I got up immediately despite my weak knees and with my strong memory located the door, I don't really have a strong memory but when you have been in the same room twice in one day you tend to remember your way.

"How dare you" I yelled immediately I got to the kitchen, Xavier was sitting there laughing with two guys, whom I recognized as Jax and Jeremy

"She is finally awake, I wonder why it took you so long to do so"

"You bastard"

"I suggest you refrain from insulting me if you want to be alive for much longer, Jax and Jeremy leave us" Xavier waved his hand and they immediately disappeared making me jump a little.

"Why the hell did you bite me"

"Because I can, and you are damn annoying, and I said I am sorry"

"Xavier what do you think I am, some kind of naive little girl, because if that is what you think of me then you need to think again, you can't just kill me and expect me to be okay with it"

"What can you do about it?" he asked me with boredom deeply etched upon his face, the effrontery of this man, I rushed up to him dragged my arms back and landed a cold hard slap on his face, only my palm didn't touch his face. I looked and saw his hand gripped my arm tightly

"You don't want to do that" he pushed my hand away harshly, then stared into my eyes.

"What are you doing?"

"I am sorry for killing you"

"Apology not accepted" with that I spun on my heels and walked out of the kitchen, up the stairs to our bedroom. I needed to find a way out of this house because if I stayed in this house for one more moment I was going to lose it. I expertly flopped on the bed and pulled his comforter over my body, immediately I fell into a deep sleep.

I woke up and looked around. The light was extremely dim in Xavier's bedroom and he was not beside me, I knew this because I could not feel any body's breath on my neck, and any body's arm around my waist, fortunately for him, if I had felt his body touching mine again I would have stabbed him with my fingernails for attempting rape. I pulled my self out of bed to go in search of something to put in my stomach.

"Where are you going" I froze in my tracks and slowly turned around to meet Xavier looking up from the book he was reading and raised one of his eyebrows at me, how had I not noticed he was near me before.

"You are reading the subtle art of not giving a fuck, that's my favorite book" no it is not

"Answer the question"

"Why aren't you asleep, isn't it too late to be reading a book and in a dark room at that, you could damage your eyes"

"I don't sleep, I cannot damage my eyes, now tell me where are you going, trying to sneak out? cos if you are we are going to have a problem"

"I am not!" yet"I was hungry so I decided to get something to eat"

"Huh, then let us go" he got out of bed and grabbed my arm

"I don't mean to distract you from your book honestly I could go and make my self a sandwich"

"Let us go" he pulled me out of the room and we both went to the kitchen

"UNHAND ME! I am not a doll" I pulled my hand from his immediately

"You were trying to sneak out"

"If I was honey, I will be out of this house, I haven't had anything to eat since I got under your care, I want to go to my father"

"And whose fault is that"

"YOU, I didn't eat breakfast because of you, I didn't eat lunch because my friends were asking about you and I didn't eat dinner because you killed me so I am safe to say YOU prince Xavier are the cause of my hunger"

"I need you to watch your tone with me"

"Or you would kill me again go ahead"

"I will do worse than kill you"

"what could be worse than killing me"

"I will do something you will not forget he lifted me and placed me on one of the stools near the island table. Xavier opened the fridge then brought out all the ingredients he was going to use to make my dinner which included chicken, so just to be troublesome I spoke up

"How are you so sure I am not a vegetarian"

"If you are you would have to stop today because from today you are going to be eating chicken-based meals, and don't think I haven't forgotten you stuffing your face with bacon this morning"

I narrowed my eyes at him as he started spreading some butter on the bread slices. once he was done with the preparation of the bread he went to the stove turned it on placed a pan that was previously brushed with oil and started sauteeing the chicken.

I couldn't stop my self from admiring his gorgeous back muscles, as a teenage girl, I found it hard to put my hormones on a leash, my mind was saying 'stop drooling over him, he has killed you. TWICE' but my lady parts were saying 'YES DADDY'

"Close your mouth" I shut it immediately he dragged me out of my reverie, I was so lost in this sexy muscles that I hadn't realized that I wasn't even looking at them anymore "Do you like garlic" yeah like I would drool over a guy like you, you are such a bipolar idiot, I said to him in his head. "That is exactly what you were doing, who is the idiot"

My face flushed in embarrassment, oops
