Chapter 447
Inside the car,
Natalia moved her head against the back seat. The scent emanating from the jacket that surrounded her body made her feel warm.
Her eyes were closed and her lips were parted.
“I won’t forgive you, Adrian,” she kept mumbling.
The man beside her focused his gaze on her. He was observing her every
move.
She sobbed while saying, “I hate you.”
He tightened his fists while looking at her. She unconsciously shifted her head to his chest.
His hand lifted to move the hair strands away from her face. His eyes darkened when he saw blood on her cheek.
He wrapped his arm around her and pulled her closer. He wiped the blood from her cheek and saw there was a cut on her cheek. He realized that when
the man smashed the bottle on his arm, she got hurt that realized that when
time.
With his wounded hand, he rubbed her cheek with her thumb and murmured, “I’m sorry, baby. I never intended to hurt you.”
He leaned down and kissed her on the cheek. As if she could feel his touch and realized it was him, she tried to push him.
He tightened his grip on her waist and pulled her onto his lap. She opened her eyes and tried to clear her vision.
He pressed her head against his chest and leaned down to lick her wound.
She patted his hands as though she were feeling pain in her cheek. He did not let her go as he rolled his tongue against her cheek.
She gave up fighting and fisted his shirt against his arms. Feeling pain in his
Injured arm, he closed his eyes. It appeared that it had not begun to heal because there were broken pieces of the bottle pierced in his arms.
Nevertheless, he did not push her away. Instead, he kissed her cheek after healing it. He stroked her hair and murmured,
“Sleep. I know you have not slept for the past two nights.”
Natalia closed her eyes slowly and fell asleep on his chest.
When she opened her eyes, she was lying on a bed. Her surroundings were completely dark. She sat up immediately when something came to her mind.
She remembered that a man was taking her to a room, and then he tried to force her.
Natalia could not think further as she removed the blanket from her body.
As soon as she stepped one leg out of bed, the door opened and the lights in the room turned on.
She paused when she noticed it was a familiar room. It was Adrian’s house where she used to live before.
She shifted her gaze to the door.
Adrian entered the bedroom shirtless. Her eyes moved his chest. She was about to move them away from our bare chest, but they shifted on his arm and froze.
“W–What happened to your arm?” she inquired, seeing his muscle filled with blood.
Adrian shut the door and walked to the closet. He took out a first aid kit and walked over to the couch near the bed.
He set the box on the table nearby and motioned her to it.
“Care to help me with it?”
Natalia averted her gaze from him.
“So weak you are!” she mumbled intentionally. noveldrama
He let out a sigh and replied,
“Yeah, too weak to get wounded while saving you at the club.”
