Chapter 5: What did you do to me?
What was she doing here in a strange room with a stranger? Her head was aching terribly and it looked like she would black out at any moment. She glanced at her body and screamed when she saw she was naked. She held the duvet close to her chest. And directed against the man. Her eyes were shooting daggers at the man.
"What did you do to me" she yelled angrily. But before the man could reply to her. she remembered coming to the club last night. Images of what happened last night flooded her mind. She remembered how she was begging him to take her home. If anyone was to be blamed then she's the one. She remembered how demand was pushing her away. But she still stuck to him like glue and seduced him last night. The more she remembered the more embarrassed she felt. She wished the ground would open and swallow her. She was so ashamed to even look at the man in the eyes.
" Do you remember what happened last night now?" Ethan questioned with a followed brow.
She couldn't bring herself to reply to him and only kept against lowered while biting her lips. She looks like a little kid who was caught doing some naughty stuff.
She raised her head when she heard footsteps approaching her. She uses the duvet to cover her body well when Ethan gets on the bed. What is he trying to do? Did the man want to take advantage of her once again ?!
She screamed in her head.
"What... What are you... trying to do." She stuttered. She wanted to look confident but her eyes and her voice betrayed her. The man's aura was too intimidating.
"What do you think?" Ethan asked. His lips curved upward slightly forming a smirk "Do you remember what happened last night now?" He asked with a raised brow. Regina's face turned red even more. She looks so embarrassed. She wished the ground would open and swallow her. She can't even bring herself to reply to him. Her eyes suddenly travelled downward and she was surprised to see the ring on his finger. That's probably a wedding ring. The man is already married yet he still has the nerve to sleep with her. She's not entirely at fault. He could have possibly pushed her away and didn't give in to her request. All men are just the same. He has a wife at home yet he spent the night with her. This man will be her second.
She cleared her throat and ignored the embarrassment she was feeling. She raised her head with confidence in her eyes "You don’t have to make a fuss about this. If we ever see each other outside. I would appreciate it if you could pretend like nothing happened last night. You don't know me so do I. We don't know each other. Let's just consider it a one-night stand. We are both adults anyway " She said everything in one go. Her cheeks were still flushed from embarrassment. She can't hide that no matter what. She still kept her gaze on the ring on Ethan's finger.
Ethan traced her gaze and saw her looking at her finger "Oh this. I am not married." He said. It was as if he could read her mind.
Then why are you putting it on? She almost blurted out but she refrained from saying so. She averted her gaze away from the ring and flashed him a smile "I didn't say anything."
She did wait for his response and got down from the bed. Wrapping the duvet around her body tightly. Her eyes fell on her clothes on the floor. Her clothes were already ruined and there was no way she would wear them again. She turned around and forced out a smile.
"Can you do well by ordering a cloth for me? And please. Get me something that will ease my headache " She said with a pleading tone.
"Okay," Ethan replied and picked up his phone. Regina went straight to the bathroom to clean herself. She pushed it open the door and entered. She remembered coming to the club last night so how did she end up in a five-star hotel room?
Everything about this place was screaming luxury. Just how rich is that man? She wondered. She removed the duvet from her body, leaving her naked. Her eyes fell on the mirror and she was shocked to the bone to see her body covered in hickeys. The man was wild with her last night. And he was so full of energy. She remembered how he kept thrusting into her. It would be a lie if she said she did not enjoy the s*x last night. And he made her feel really good. And the guy is so handsome. Even handsome seems to be an understatement for him. If not her heart has already belonged to Greg. She's sure she would have fallen for him without a second thought. He is so hot. His well-chiseled body is enough to drive any girl crazy. She's sure of that. He must be every girl's crush.
She stepped into the bathtub and closed her eyes as the warm water touched her skin. Her tensed muscles seem to relaxed a little. She wished she could stay in the water forever.
After spending almost what seems to be a half an hour in the bathtub. She finally came out. Fortunately. The handsome guy was not in the room anymore. Has he left? Just like that?
She found a new set of clothes gently placed on the bed and picked it up. Excitement was written all over her face when she saw the man had picked a turtle neck for her. He seems to be a reasonable person though. At least. The turtle's neck will cover the hickeys on her neck. She slipped into the dress and picked up the hair dryer.
The door flew open just as she was blowing her hair. It's none other than the handsome man.
Fortunately. She is now fully dressed. It is embarrassing enough to be seen naked by a stranger. Such must not occur again.
"Are you done?" She heard Ethan's voice from behind and a look of surprise crossed her eyes. Confusion was written all over her face. What does he mean by is she done? What's with that?
She turned around and forced out a smile ."Thank you so much for the dress but What do you want Mr? I thought you already left. Did you forget something?"
"No, I've been waiting for you outside. I wanted to drive you back home as compensation for what I did." He replied but Regina rejected his offer immediately.
"No, please. Don't stress yourself."
"No, it's not a stress. I will feel guilty if you don't allow me to take you home. It's just a compensation. So let me take you home."
Regina did not turn him down this time. There is no harm in it anyway. It's not like he will force himself on her or something..There is nothing wrong with that. She assured herself.
Soon she was done drying her hair. She grabbed her bag and they both walked out of the room.
