Chereads / Melting the Ice: The Devil Beside Me / Chapter 38 - Consequence

Chapter 38 - Consequence

We are now eating our breakfast. The boys are talking while wolfing down their food, but I just keep quiet all the time. My head's full of thought about the consequence that I had no energy to join them.

"Hey princess, you all right? You're so quiet, don't you like the food?" Brother Rome asked in a worried tone. And everyone stopped eating and focused all their attention on me, including Z. I am starting to feel uneasy with their gazes.

"Of course I'm alright. And stop staring at me you brutes, it's creeping me you know. I am just thinking about something."

"Oh I know what you're thinking lil' sis, it's about the consequence from the bet earlier!" Brother Rein exclaimed with a smirk forming on his lips.

My eyes went wide. How did he know? Am I that easy to read?

"Good thinking there twin! Scared now lil' sis?" Brother Reid also teased me. Aish these two. So damn annoying.

"Shut up you morons! I'm not thinking about that okay? Just mind your own business. Tss." I replied angrily. I know my face is now all red, from embarrassment and anger.

"Your crossing the line there, twins. Enough teasing her." Big brother Reese's serious voice echoed in the silent dining area. He's mad, and that is for sure based on the tone he's using to the twins. I felt guilty all of the sudden.

"We're sorry lil' sis." The twins said in unison. They are really regretful for their actions earlier. I felt bad because it is actually not their fault, it is my emotions and over reacting earlier.

"I'm sorry too, brothers. Sorry for my outburst, it's just my emotions getting on my nerves." I replied apologetically, in which they all smiled in return.

We just continued our breakfast and after that they just said that we'll just continue our training tomorrow, for me to rest.

I am just lying lazily in my bed when I hear Z's voice.

"A pardon for your thoughts, Mine." Z voiced playfully with a smirk plastered on his face.

"What are you doing here? And how did you get in?" I asked while being shocked for him being here in my room without me noticing.

"You're so lost in your thoughts that you did not notice me entering your room." He replied boredly.

"Tss. What are you doing here, Z?"

"Consequence." One word from him and my heart started to beat wildly again. Damn here it is, my consequence from the bet earlier.

"What is it, Z?" I asked nervously.

He just smirked at my reaction, but his next words caught me off guard.

"Be my wife, Mine."
