chapter 39
Xavier rubbed the spot that my shoulders met my neck, which was where I carried most of my stress, loosening each and every knot one by one, I have to say this guy was very talented. He was a wonder at massage therapy. I moaned softly when he loosened another knot, he caused that one. Xavier chuckled softly and stopped
“Don’t stop” look who said don’t make this about sex, I didn’t, did I “I mean don’t stop in a sex unrelated manner” I found my self stammering
“Of course Winter” he continued moving his hands fluently down my back
“Xavier that feels good” his thumbs pressed into that canal that ran down the middle of my back “right there”
“Winter stop saying things like that”
“OOPS, sorry, you are just so good with your hands”
“Am I?, I can do a lot more” I blushed profusely “On your back” I wrapped the towel around my chest again which as much effort as I could put then turned to lie down flat on my back
“How are you feeling”
“Refreshed”
“Would you like to go skinny dipping with me”
“Maybe another day Xavier, I am beat up as hell”
“Should I remember this promise or you want to get rid of me”
“Do remember, Xavier I would like to go skinny dipping with a demon and find out if water can burn you”
“I assure you water is not my weakness” he started massaging my collar bone, another place where stress and tension had their little playdates on my body
“Xavier if you leave that spot I promise to kill you” He laughed “Have you done this for any of your sluts”
“What sluts?”
“The women that frequent your bed”
“Oh my concubines”
“Is that what you call them”
" Baby don’t call your fellow woman a slut”
“Ok sorry, so you massage the other women you sleep with”
“No, why would I massage my concubine,” he asked looking at me with a quizzical look on his face
“Do you sleep around?”
“Are we jealous?”
“JEALOUS, WHAT NO. AS IF, YOU WISH”
“So you won’t turn red if I kissed Gillian in front of you,” he asked still massaging me. I had a little moan break, basking in the adoration from his hands
“Gillian is way too old for you”
“What’s your point”
“Don’t kiss her, okay, or I will kiss Alec” wait, Alec, Alec. ALEC. I shot out of the massage table with my hand gripping the towel to my chest
“Are you alright”
“I totally forgot that I was supposed to tutor Alec today, God he is going to be so upset at me”
“That human boy again”
“Alec is just my friend”
“He is not JUST your friend, stay away from that boy if you really value him, when I say something is mine its mine, YOU ARE MINE. I can be possessive and when I get possessive, I get jealous and when I get jealous I get extremely violent. WINTER, you do not want to meet my violent side”
“He just needed some help in maths”
“Stay away from that boy” he rubbed his forehead and walked out of the spa
“Wait what about my massage, I thought I would get acupuncture!” I grabbed my clothes “XAVIER, Stop walking away from me” I grabbed his arm and pulled him back
“I am talking to you, so you will listen, you know Alec is better than you that’s why you are afraid of him” what are you doing SHUT UP and back away right now
“Excuse me”
“You heard me, you are afraid that Alec can take my heart faster than you ever and he might even be better in bed”
“Are you trying to piss me off”
“If you know that he cant take me away why worry yourself”
“You are right, I am sorry. But Winter no one can make you orgasm the way I can. I was just giving you a massage and you were already on the verge of screaming my name”
“I was not” I denied almost immediately as we both walked towards the house. I kept thinking about Alec, now he will never be my boyfriend. MAKE UP YOUR DAMN MIND, DO YOU WANT SWEET ALEC OR SEXY XAVIER. Both. YA NASTY. But I could just lie to Alec again, but what would happen when he realizes I keep blowing him off for Xavier.
“What is on your mind”
“Oh its nothing”
“Just tell me, I won’t judge, I promise” he crossed his hands over his chest
“What I did to Alec, it is very unlike me and he might not want to be friends anymore”
“Look, I don’t like the boy, but since I promised not to judge I would just tell you to explain to him. Leaving out the part where I am an immortal being of course and you are being forced to marry me, you could tell him that something came up, you went camping with your father and totally forgot about it”
“And he will believe that”
“He has to be extremely smart not to believe an eighteen-year-old going camping with her father”
“Thanks, Xavier”
“You are welcome” We got up to the bedroom.
“I am going to take a shower” I walked into the bathroom
“Don’t tell me you left your clothes there”
“I can pick them up tomorrow can’t I” One week gone in this house, remember last Saturday like it was just yesterday, some pretty weird things have happened to me since then. If I had just stayed in at the right time, I reckon none of these things would have happened, but then Xavier would have probably broken into my house that night and snatched me out of bed. So you would have been here anyway. I brushed my teeth while looking at my reflection, who would have thought after living with Hades himself for one week I would still look like a teenage girl. No, you are slowly turning into a demon, you can’t just see it yet. It starts with lying. THEN STEALING. I would not steal if it meant all the money in the world
