Chapter 99 - Ninety-Eight: Feeling Used

"What the hell do you think you are doing, Sullivan?" 

Domenic's sharp and angry voice boomed through the silence of the room, clearly stating that he was not liking the scene that he was seeing.

Emily tried to hurriedly pull herself away from Kaiden's embrace but as soon as she started wiggling, his arms tightened around her.

Since her back was facing her guardian, she could not see him or his angry expressions. 

Thinking about the harsh lecture that she would be facing after returning to the mansion, she once again tried to get herself free from Kaiden's embrace.

However, no matter how hard she tried, she still was not able to pull away or make the supernatural budge even a little bit.

"Mr. Sullivan, can you please let me go!" 

She finally called out the man in a hurried whispered tone, making sure to put all her frustration into her voice.

Of course, Domenic could clearly see her efforts and hear her frustration which made him calm down a little. At least, his baby sister was still innocent and not tangled in the love trap of Kaiden Sullivan, at least not yet!

His gaze once again returned to glare at the man who dared to hold his baby sister in such an intimate position.

But then he finally saw it, the desperation that was clearly visible in the cerulean eyes of the young man.

And along with that desperation, Domenic also found something else - fear.

It was such a huge blow for the eldest Alessandro to find Kaiden Sullivan in such a hopeless state.

He found the man moving his lips and it took him only a few seconds to realize exactly what he was saying - PLEASE!

Kaiden was begging him to not separate Emily and him for the time being.

The realization only made Domenic's frown deepen. The fact that he had found Kaiden Sullivan in such a state only meant one thing - something was wrong. Very Very wrong!

And he did not need to be genius to realize that whatever it was, it's definitely related to Emily.

He found his own heart starting to race as the realization dawned over him but he made sure to not let it showcase on his face.

He gave a quick nod along with a sharp glare before he left the office, closing the door behind him.

The nod was his acceptance of Kaiden's request to have a little more alone time with Emily, while the sharp glare was to remind him not to cross his limits.

Even though Domenic was already aware of the special bond that his baby sister shared with the powerful supernatural, she was still his baby sister. Moreover, she was barely seventeen years old.

There was no way he would let the man take advantage of his little kid. 

But deep down in his heart, Domenic knew that Kaiden would never cross his line. At least not for the time being.

"Why it feels like he's just experienced a threat? A threat to his bond with Emilia?" Domenic asked the moment Sam appeared beside him.

"I think I know the answer. I'll show you." Dr. Sam replied as he gave a quick look at the closed office door before turning around and walking away.

Domenic kept standing there for a few silent seconds before he followed behind his best friend.

"Have you gone deaf? Or are you really fed up with your immortal life? If you want Nick to kill you then just find some other ideas to piss him off. Don't use me for Heaven's sake!" 

Emily finally realized what was wrong with the silver-haired hot dude.

He was definitely looking for a fight with her guardian and as soon as his supernatural senses found out that Domenic was about to appear in the office, he decided to do something that would immediately make him angry.

But why did he have to pull her along into the rabbit hole in which he decided to jump?

She almost wanted to punch some common sense into the supernatural but seeing the fact that she could barely move her hands, it was impossible for the time being.

A chuckle escaped his lips as Kaiden heard her frustration and accusing tone that promised a lifelong animosity if he did not let go of her immediately.

He finally found his soul relaxing and his mood lifting. Rather than following her demand and letting go of her, he decided to pull her even tighter in his embrace.

Emily let out an exasperated sigh as she felt her body heating up at their close proximity. Her front was flushed against his hard solid body and the way her breasts were pushed against his abdomen, was making her blush like a tomato. 

The hand which had been resting on her neck all this while finally decided to give her some room as it trailed down to rest on her spine.

Emily did not waste any time as she hurriedly turned her head to find her brother, but to her surprise, there was no one in the office.

Did she imagine his voice then?

"He left."

Kaiden decided to help her as his mood got better and better with each passing minute. 

However, he still was reluctant to let go of his girl. She felt so good and right in his arms. It was like his arms were specially built for her.

"Why?"

He found her asking with confused eyes that were outrightly glaring at him as if he was the culprit. Well, he was in a way.

"Maybe he just decided to give us some space." He replied with a soft shrug and immediately got rewarded with a fierce look from his girl.

"Mr. Sullivan, I really appreciate your help and kindness. But please don't use me to irritate my brothers from now on." Emily gritted out through her clenched teeth as she finally pulled herself out of his arms.

A twitch appeared on Kaiden's lips as he looked at the girl while tilting his head a little. 

His voice was filled with mischief as he replied, "I'll try, Princess."
