THE FOLLOWING DAY~6AM**
Autumn slowly opened her eyes.
Waking up this morning wasn’t the usual rude jolt that rocked her out of restfulness. It was more like the gentle coaxing of mother’s tender voice lulling her awake with fond crooning.
The room was still dark, her sleepy brain slowly realized. The deep blue shadows of the fading night lingered around the folds of the curtains.
She blinked repeatedly, and her eyes darted around the unfamiliar room. The color was unique, her nostril was invaded by a beautiful scent…which was much more different from hers.
Everything that happened last night came flooding in and she gasped.
” Fuçk. Don’t tell me am in is…” She yawned and quickly jumped out from the bed.
The bedsheets dropped to the floor, and her eyes widened when she realized she was just in his shirt. It swallowed her whole body though.
” Did he??. Ahh, that pérvert!” She wrapped the sheets around herself and found her way to the living room.
” Hey! Pérvert! Get me out of here. Where the fuçk am i??” That was all autumn could blab before someone turned the lights on.
” Why did you bring me here??. Where am i??. What happened last night??. Don’t tell me you…we..” She blurted out like a stammering idíot, not making any room for him to speak.
Nathaniel just stared at her and stood still like a mannequin. His silence was already starting to piss autumn off.
She picked up a glass vase her hand could reach, and charged towards him like a mentally deranged person.
‘ Fuçk. She’s crázy’ Nathaniel cursed inwardly, and quickly moved out of the way. She ended up hitting the air instead.
Autumn accidentally kicked a vacuum cleaner and her steps faltered. She nearly fell, but perfect his hand caught her in time pressing her against his broad chest.
The touch of his hands so warm on her bare skin sent a burst of heat straight to her core.
‘ What is this??’ Autumn wondered as she could hear her heart palpitating çrazily. She raised her head up and looked straight into the eyes of her worst enémy.
They were just so dangerous…yet alluring at the same time. How could someone be this hót?.
‘ Is he even human??’ She wondered again, trying to keep her breathing in check.
” Are you okay?” Nathaniel stared down at her tempting lips and then back at her eyes.
” I can’t believe am about to say this. But don’t get the wrong idea after i do this, stvpid jérk” Autumn took in her bottom lip and her gaze found its way to his wet, pink lips.
” Huh? What…” Nathaniel was shocked the moment her lips locked with his, but he had no time to think.
He immediately took over the kiss, pulling her closer by the waist, their tongues rolling in each other’s mouth as they engaged in the steamy..make out.
Autumn felt really strange. Her body was craving for his touch for some reason.
Nathaniel felt her hand grip his waist, but not to push him away, rather, to pull him closer.
They both moáned into the kiss, then allowing it to deepen as their tongues moved in sync with one another dancing in the most erotic way.
” Gaa..aw..w..wwd” Autumn tried to hold back a móan, but failed as nathaniel trailed his fingers down her body.
It was at that exact moment that her phone decided to vibrate on the table. They broke the kiss when they needed to catch their breath.
” I… This was… I haté you!” Autumn stuttered and hurriedly picked up her phone. She dashed into the room before nathaniel could even say `JACK`.
” What the fuçk just happened?” He dipped his fingers into his hair and ruffled it.
***
? WE’VE TRACKED DOWN HIS LOCATION BOSS. ACCORDING TO WHAT WE’VE GATHERED ABOUT HIM, IT SEEMS THAT HE IS THE LEADER OF A CLAN CALLED THE “AVENGERS”. WE TOOK PHOTOS TOO, THAT’S ENOUGH PROOF TO CONFIRM WHAT WE’RE SAYING.
? THIS IS A JOB WELDONE. YOU’LL BE REWARDED HANDSOMELY.
Autumn grinned as she stared at the discriminating pictures. It is enough for her to tannish the McKay family’s image.
” I think it is finally time for me to show my face to him. Can’t wait to see the look on his face when he sees me…alive and kicking” She chuckled and slumped, confused, onto the bed.
Her mind drifted to what happened earlier on, and she mentally slapped herself.
” Why the fuçk did i do that?? Have i gone mád??. No…am not falling for that idiót right??” She grabbed the pillows and squeezed them cruélly, imagining it to be nathaniel’s neck.
” Hey. Are you alright in there?. Come on out, i made you an hangover soup” Nathaniel’s voice echoed from the outside. She gave it a quick thought and decided to accept his offer.
” As the saying goes, you’ve got to keep your enemies closer. Nathaniel McKay, get ready to feel the same way i felt after your animál for a father brutally wiped out my family” Autumn smirked, playing with her manicured fingers.

” I…” They said in unison, but nathaniel impelled her to speak first.
” About what happened in the morning. The mistake i made. Let’s just pretend it never happened. Let’s keep it behind us. Deal??” She sipped her soup noisily and forced a smile. At least she should get on his good side.
Nathaniel sighed and pinched his brows in discomfort. For some unknown reason, he felt hurt by her statement. Calling that special moment a mistake…kinda hurt his feelings.
” Yeah, sure. That’s the best thing to do in this situation” He replied, pouring himself a cup of caramel tea.
Drinking one to two cups of caramel tea every day supports relaxation and helps him calm his body and mind.
” I uhmm. I actually wanna use this opportunity to apologise to you for everything have done. I know what have been doing to you is terrible, but i really didn’t mean to. My anger got the best of me and i ended up assaulting the wrong person” Autumn apologized, surprising him.
He never thought she was capable of accepting that she was wrong. He has been judging a book by its cover afterall.
” Ohhh. Uhhhmmm…it’s fine. Let’s put everything behind us and move forward” Nathaniel replied innocently.
The sound of his ringing phone tore through the air immediately. He accepted the call.
” Let me guess. You guys are worried about me. Well…not to worry. I’ll be there in a few minutes. I left the dormitory cause i needed some me-time. Bye” He ended the call and sighed exasperatedly.
