Midnight Baking

KIARA

Three hours had passed , and I still wasn’t able to sleep . Every time I shut my eyes , I was either seeing Alejandro telling Jasmin to ignore me or him saying he couldn’t mark her . I pushed the covers off , now agitated . I had blocked the mind link off because I didn’t want to talk to anyone , and I was glad Mom hadn’t tried to bother me . We both needed to calm down .

I had even texted Raven , filling her in on everything two hours ago , but she must b e asleep now … The forty – minute shower I had when I came up wasn’t enough to relax me … What should I do ? A sudden thought came to me and I smiled . I knew what I should do … and it was already late , no one would be awake . Kicking off the covers ,

I jumped out of my bed , wincing at the pain in my ankle . I paused , remembering how it hadn’t hurt when I had lunged at the Wendigo … Did m y ability have something to do with that ? I would need to trial it out another time . I didn’t want to attract Wendigos .

I pulled my hair into a messy bun and left my room . I used the light on my phone to see as I made my way silently downstairs . My feet padded lightly on the steps . I entered the kitchen , feeling a little chilly in my black shorts and crop top . I’m sure it will heat up once the oven was turned on . I turned it on first before I began taking the ingredients for brownies out , placing them on the island in the centre .

I always find baking therapeutic , and right now I think a glass of milk and gooey brownies were the perfect thing to help me get a good night’s sleep . I frowned , unable to find the plain chocolate bars . I closed the drawer and headed to the pantry , looking at the lined shelves of goodies . No plain chocolate , I almost gave up when my gaze caught a stack on a shelf above my head .

I smiled at the large slabs of Dairy Milk whole nut chocolate . I could use those . Why the hell were they so far up ? Tiptoeing , I grabbed two bars , turning as a shadow loomed in the door . I almost dropped the bars , gasping in alarm before the familiar intoxicating scent hit my nose .

” I don’t like anyone stealing my chocolate . My heart thumped . I wasn’t expecting him to come downstairs . I refused to look him in the eyes , but even that was a mistake as I was now looking at his perfect shirtless body .

His pierced nipples , refined abs and his tattoos made my core throb , a Oh , Goddess …. I looked away , trying to move past him , but he didn’t budge . Reaching up , he grabbed a bar . I closed my eyes , trying not to inhale his intoxicating scent . His arm brushed my shoulder and I pulled back , feeling those strong tingles rush through me . I felt his eyes on me before h e stepped out of the pantry .

I let out the breath I didn’t know I was holding and made my way back over to my bowl . Opening the first bar of chocolate , I began to break it up , placing the nutty parts in a separate bowl . My heart was pounding , and I wished it wasn’t . Leave the kitchen . Please .

My blazing purple eyes met his dark ones . He frowned as he picked up some of the chocolatey nuts that I had separated , popping them into his mouth . ” Why didn’t you allow me to reject you ? ” I asked , mixing the chocolate chunks before I returned to the rest of my mixture , my eyes trained on him . He frowned , and for a moment the only sound I could hear was the bukbling water , the crunch of the nuts he was eating and our own hearts . NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.

” I don’t know . ” He said quietly , his words stung and I really wished he had more to say than that … A harsh reply was at the tip of my tongue when he spoke . ” You smell like hazelnut chocolate . ” I looked at him , surprised at the random comment . Our eyes met and I wasn’t ready for the emotion in his , emotions he tried to hide and sure enough , he had his mask back on almost instantly . ” Well , you smell of smoke and sweat . ” I lied , I was not going to be nice .

He gave me a cold smirk . ” So that’s the smell you fucking like ? ” ” Excuse me ? ” I said coldly . ” You like it . A mate smells good , regardless of what the fuck it is . ” He said , giving a cocky look . ” No , you don’t . ” I said . A spasm of pain went through me , I tried t o push it away as I took the melted chocolate from the cooker , mixing it into the rest of the mixture before I lined a baking tray and scooped all the mix innoi t .

I placed it into the oven , setting the timer . With nothing to do , I realised I couldn’t avoid him …. I scanned the kitchen , desperate to keep myself busy so gathered up the dishes and placed them in the sinis ” I know I hurt you … Your Mom fucking gave me that shit after you left the zoom But trust me , I’m a fucking monster . I didn’t reject Jasmin to … You know . Yeah , like I’ve said ….. You’re perfect but I’m a fucking mess …. I have nothing to offer you ” He said quietly .

My heart skipped a beat … So , he was still fixed on that . ” Wasn’t that supposed to be my decision t o make ? ” I said quietly , soaping the dishes , my back to him . ” Not when you don’t know how fucked up I am . ” He said . ” You still didn’t have that right .

” I said , wishing there were more dishes to wash … I put the stuff away before wiping the surface down , leaving the chocolate bowl and his glass which he was drinking so slowly … His eyes met mine . ” Yeah … Well , there’s more involved than you know … ” ” All you had to do was tell me . ” I said quietly .

Our hearts raced in sync as if setting a rhythm of their own . And I realised one thing , no matter how much he hurt me … I still wanted him . I could see the turmoil in his eyes too . ” Instead of ripping my heart out and crushing it . ” I added .

” I’m sorry … I just needed you to leave … to run . As fucking far as you could possibly g o from me . ” He said . His gaze flickered to my breast before he looked away . My stomach did a flip and I looked at the broken bits of chocolate , taking a piece . ” 1 ” Well , I guess that didn’t work .

” ” Who knew you were so fucking stubborn . ” He said , in the same tone . ” Guess that’s why I was made for you . ” a I wished I didn’t just say that . Our eyes met once more and I found myself lost in his …
