Chapter 3: CHAPTER 3
Eva's eyes suddenly flew open, and she sat up quickly as her heart palpitated rapidly. She realised she had woken up inside a large room. The light in the room was bright. After looking around and observing the furnishings of the room, she noted that this room looked quite luxurious.
'Where am I? What's with this extravagant room? Am I dreaming?' These questions popped into her mind as she sat there on the bed, still unmoving. Then her head throbbed painfully. It felt as though a gigantic hand was continually squeezing her brain, trying to turn it into mush. Her hand flew to her head. And then she remembered what happened. She recalled that she entered a bar and decided to get a strong alcoholic drink. And she even asked the bartender to make it extra strong. It was no wonder she had gotten drunk. She remembered there was also a man involved somehow, but she could not remember his face.
She could only remember herself putting her hand in his. This chapter is updated by nov(e)(l)biin.com
Her eyes flew wide open at a sudden thought.
'Oh my god!' she frantically checked herself, patting herself and taking stock of how she felt overall. She was still wearing her business suit and did not feel that her body was any different than usual. It was only her shoes and blazer that were not on her. After a quick scan, she saw the missing items neatly arranged on a chair beside the bed she was in. Her glasses were there too.
She let out a relieved sigh.
'Nothing should have happened to me, right? I don't feel anything amiss.' She checked herself over again. And then she buried her face in her palms. 'Did that man bring me here? Oh my god, Eva... what have you gotten yourself into!'
She finally pulled herself and rose from the bed. 'Oh God, I stink like the sewers! Ugh!' She scrunched her nose and grabbed her shoes and jacket and wore her glasses.
Barefooted, she stepped out of the room, and she gaped at the extravagant house.
'Oh... my... sweet lord... am I inside an ancient chateau? Where on earth am I?' Her eyes almost bugged out of their sockets as she looked around. The place was massive and lavishly furnished. Every single thing seemed to cost a considerable sum.
She rushed towards the grand staircase. 'Marble steps... bronze handrails, chandeliers, ballrooms... this is definitely a house built in the 1800s!'
"I'm leaving. Thank you and sorry for the trouble I caused." Her words were curt, dismissive, and did not encourage further continuation for conversation.
She turned and faced the door but...
"Wait." He slammed his palm against the door right before her, making her heartbeat drum wild again. Then he bent and whispered in her ear. "If you think a simple thank you and sorry is enough for me... then I will forward you my apologies. Sorry to disappoint you, Little Kitten, but this devil won't be satisfied just by that alone. Especially, not after all the things that you did."
Eva swallowed. 'Huh? Wait... Things I did? What did I do?'
"It seems you've yet to remember what you did, huh? Fine, then. I guess I'll have to show you some evidence to convince you that I am not simply making things up." Eva shivered again at that mellow and sexy baritone that sounded just beside her ear.
"E-evidence?" Eva stammered. He had some kind of evidence against her?!
"Here's the evidence, pet."
Reluctantly, Eva turned around and saw him pulling on the ties that was keeping his robe closed.
Then with a languorous smile on his face, he murmured sexily. "Right here, Little Kitten."
His long tapering finger reached up and pointed at the two very obvious marks – one hickey and one bite mark- that were decorating his neck and Eva's eyes widened in shock.
