Chapter 1183: Kayden (11)

Kayden took a room for the two of them to stay in before continuing their journey on the next morning.

And the place Kayden took was a luxury hotel which made Tiana widened her eyes.

"We don't need to stay in a hotel this expensive," Tiana said, she didn't agree with the value of money that had to be spent for them to stay here, which was not even half the day.

"No, I am not taking you to a cheap hotel," Kayden replied as he unpacked a large bag of clothes and took a boxer from inside. "Do you want to take a shower first, or should I take a shower first?" he asked.

Tiana opened her mouth to say something, but then she shook her head. "If you have enough money to rent a room in this place, then why are you only renting one room?"

Kayden shrugged his shoulders nonchalantly. "It would be a waste of money if we had to rent another room," Kayden answered, then he walked to the bathroom to take a shower first. It was already night, so they had to rest soon, because their journey tomorrow would be very long.

"If you think it's a waste of money, then why are we here?" she asked cluelessly.

But Kayden couldn't hear the protest, because he had turned on the shower and started bathing.

Meanwhile, Tiana could only sit there, waiting while changing several news channels on television.

How did she end up with Kayden? It was the most absurd thing that had ever happened in Tiana's life and she would never thank him enough for what he had done for her.

While out there, Oliver, her ex- boyfriend, who she had been dating for the past eight months, was trying to hurt her, and here, she felt safe with a stranger she hadn't even known for a month.

Tiana stared at the television screen, even though she wasn't actually watching it, because her mind was elsewhere and she couldn't stop thinking about all of this after she met Kayden.

No one knew how long Tiana pondered in this matter, but as soon as she realized, Kayden had come out of the bathroom, his short hair was wet and water ran down his broad chest.

Okay, this is too much… is Kayden teasing her?

"What are you doing?!" Tiana half screamed in panic when she saw the man standing right in front of her wearing only boxers, while one hand was drying his hair with a towel.

"You're looking at me intensely, therefore, I'm trying to help you get closer look, do you like what you see?" he asked. And Kayden was happy when he saw the blush on Tiana's cheeks, indicating that she was embarrassed.

But her next words didn't show that at all, especially when she shoved Kayden away from her, groaning.

"Do not be too confident. You are not the only man with a good body in this world," Tiana said fiercely. She didn't mean to say it so sharply, but her embarrassment at having been caught staring at Kayden so intently, made Tiana unable to help but get defensive.

Tiana then used that moment to flee to the bathroom and even have time to lock the door.

It took a second slower for Kayden to realize this. "How many male bodies have you seen!?" he asked irritably.

The fact that Tiana already had a boyfriend before even meeting him was already upsetting him, especially with the other fact that she had seen another man's body. That's very annoying.

================ 

Kayden couldn't sleep well because the sofa he was laying down was very uncomfortable. However, what was most obvious reason for him was because Tiana was sleeping not far from him and was in a fragile state and this made his heart flutter…

He could hear the sound of her breathing as well as seeing her body wrapped in the blanket and this was driving him crazy. When he could touch her, but couldn't because it would only complicate what was between them.

Tiana didn't reject him yet, but maybe it was also because she was afraid that Kayden would stay away from her while she knew for sure that right now, in critical times like this, he was the only one she could rely on.

That fact was a bit disturbing, but Kayden didn't mind it at all.

Annoyed, Kayden threw down the blanket and walked over to the bed and carefully lay down on it.

Kayden tried not to make any sudden movements and wake Tiana up.

For a while, Kayden just lay on his side and stared at the girl's face, but then after he was sure that Tiana was deep in her sleep, Kayden reached out his hand carefully and hugged the girl very gently.

Crazy. Crazy. Crazy…

Kayden kept cursing himself for doing this to Tiana, but he couldn't help. What else could he do?

He had been tossing and turning restlessly on the sofa for almost an hour and couldn't sleep at all.

Okay, this may sound stupid and this justification can't be justified, but Kayden was trying to convince himself that he was doing this for both of them.

He needed rest, or else their trip would be delayed.

And when Tiana was in his arms, Kayden could breathe a sigh of relief, he kissed the top of the girl's head and hugged her tighter, Tiana even snuggled closer toward him, resting her head on Kayden's chest without her realizing it, because she was looking for a more comfortable position, and laying her head on the man's chest was making her sleep more soundly.

"It's better this way," Kayden said in a low voice as they both found a better position.

================== 

Neither of them talked about last night's events, or the fact that the two of them had woken up hugging each other.

Kayden thought Tiana would be mad, but it seemed she just looked embarrassed and quickly packed up.

Today's trip was much more fun than before and they both felt that this was not an escape but just a picnic.

And it feels good.

On the way, this afternoon, Tiana found out that Kayden was a bad singer. He was completely tone- deaf and she teased him for it.

A tease that move to other tease and the awkwardness between the two of them just melted away.

"What are we going to eat?" Kayden asked when it was time for them to have dinner, and the sun had set an hour ago.

"Maybe we can buy snacks," Tiana suggested. "My parents' house is only about twenty minutes away, I'm sure they have better food than any restaurant around."

Kayden smiled. "Okay fine." It's been a long time since he tasted home cooking.

And they both decided to stop the car at a small shop on the side of a quiet road.

Only, before Kayden could get out of the car, someone had come to the side of his car and shattered the windshield.

Kayden could see the shards of glass flying right in front of his eyes, but out of the corner of his eye, he could also see that another man would do the same to Tiana.

Oh, hell! He won't let his mate get hurt.

Thus, without thinking, Kayden grabbed Tiana's body and hugged her tightly, using his own body as a shield, while his foot kicked the door on his right side open.

With great difficulty, Kayden pulled Tiana out of there very carefully, so that the shards of glass wouldn't scratch her.

Only, as soon as his feet hit the ground, a punch flew to his face and made Kayden fall, and so did Tiana.

"You think you can run away from me?!" a voice of man roared, very frighteningly and violently, while Kayden struggled to his feet, amidst the rain of fists slamming into his face.

He was really fed up with all this.

And when he saw Oliver grabbed Tiana's hair and drag her between the shards of glass. Kayden couldn't see anything anymore, except darkness as his anger clouded his vision and he turned into his white beast.

There were about ten people there and they were driving four cars parked haphazardly around this deserted place.

Meanwhile the people in the small shop, not far from them, were a group of middle- aged people who could do nothing but shout for them to stop.

Kayden had really run out of patience and when he was in his lycan form, he wasted no more time and instantly tore into those who came into contact with him.

Meanwhile, on the other hand, the ten people were shocked to see Kayden's body suddenly disappear from their sight and one by one their friends roared in pain, before their bodies cut into two or had their heads separated from their bodies.

It was the most terrible thing they had ever seen and before they could understand what was really going on, it was too late, for they were already dead.

Only Tiana was able to see the whole incident and was very shocked when she saw how savage and brutal Kayden's real figure was in his beast form.

Even Tiana didn't notice when Oliver released his grip on her hair and tried to run towards the car.

It's just, too bad… Kayden had crushed his head in a very sadistic manner and made the blood spray around him and splashed at Tiana.

The girl sat limply, no longer able to feel the pain in her body…
