Chereads / He's Been Tamed / Chapter 3 - THREE

Chapter 3 - THREE

SELENE

I suppressed the giggles that was about to escape from my lips when Axiesse started walking while wobbling due to her dizzyness in her drunken state, almost even tripping if not for me and Shannie holding her up since Mindy was giving an unconscious Ruka a piggyback ride since the latter lost her consciousness a few minutes earlier since both her and Axiesse had drunk a lot of alcoholic beverages because apparently, they were in a 'who gets drunk first' contest. Which is ridiculous.

"Not going to drink even just one shot, huh?" I teased Axiesse with a smirk which he responded by swatting my face lightly since she knows, even if she's drunk, that I hate it when people touches my face, "You're lucky I didn't want Shannie alone to bear your weight, otherwise I would've let you fall down." I muttered, although even if I was helping her up alone, I wouldn't let her fall down.

"Aww, Selie is so considerate!" Shannie giggled before the two of us laughed again.

When that mysterious brown-haired man left, Shannie went back to her seat and we continued talking, I didn't drink another glass again. Mindy, Ruka, Axiesse and Michael were too immersed in their own little worlds to notice the gold-eyed male, that's why I doubt they saw us talk to each other. I also haven't seen the mysterious male since he left. Maybe he went home early?

"I'll carry her." Michael said, gently lifting Axiesse up and carrying her like a sack of potato over his shoulder as we thanked him, "Not a problem, but still, how much does this girl weigh?" Me, Shannie and Mindy laughed at his question since he's very honest about how heavy Axiesse is.

I already contacted Liz and she said she'd be here in a few minutes since we decided to leave the party sooner than the others since two of our friends are KO-ed, although Mindy and Carlos are partially drunk and Me and Shannie are still sane and alright.

While I was once again, like every other day and night, contemplating my existence, I heard a faint bark and something soft snuggling on my leg. I quickly looked down and saw a very cute husky puppy with dark brown fur, I couldn't help the smile that was forming on my face and before I knew it, I crouched down, carried it and hugged it close to my chest before standing up and rubbing my cheek with its own.

"Cute fluffy wuffy boy! You're so cute!" I said in a somewhat baby-voice.

"Wow, he really is a cute puppy." Shannie said, completely agreeing to what I just said.

"I know, right?" I giggled before I noticed some blood was smeared unto my finger. I wasn't injured, I'm sure I had no injuries at the moment, at least none that I know of which is why I searched the puppy for any injury and to my surprise, there was a big deep-but-not-that-deep cut on one of its legs. "Who did this to you, fluffy?" I asked although I knew I can't possibly understand it when it barked and snuggled into my chest.

"Poor thing's been injured." I muttered loud enough for Shannie to hear causing her to look at the puppy in my arms, gently petting its head.

"Oh, no. That's bad, who could possibly do this to such a cute puppy?" She asked, shaking her head with a frown on her face.

"Well, whoever did this is going to pay, I'll beat them up if I found out who did this to this fluffy wuffy boy. They'll pay big time with interest." I answered, threatening absolutely nothing, "I'll treat his wounds and feed him later when he wakes up."

"You're going to take care of it?"

"Yeah, I've been wanting a housemate for quite some time, he's perfect." I answered as I lovingly stared at the cute fluffy creature in my arms.

After a few moments, Liz arrived and we got inside her car, Mindy and Michael almost immediately fell asleep due to the physically taxing job they did by carrying Axiesse and Ruka who were still sound asleep, these drunkards. Me and Shannie had been talking for a few minutes while the cute puppy was sleeping on my lap before we arrived to my apartment.

I gently woke Mindy and Michael up with the help of Shannie when we I unlocked my door and they carried Ruka and Axiesse inside and Michael gently laid Axiesse unto one of the longer couches in my living room and Mindy practically threw Ruka on the other before shrugging when we asked why she just did what she did. I went outside for a while to thank Liz for helping us out before we said goodnight to each other since it's almost time for her to sleep since it's very late, it's way past my bed time.

"I'll go get some spare futons, pillows and blankets from upstairs." I informed Mindy and Michael when I got inside after locking the door.

"I'll help!" Shannie said and the both of us made our way upstairs to my room to grab the two large futons that my mother bought and told me to bring when I moved in here for "extra comfort" when I sleep which I didn't really need to use until now.

I turned to the couch near my bed only to see that the husky puppy I brought home is still sleeping peacefully on top of the pillow. I smiled lightly, glad that he's at least feeling a bit better, making mental notes to treat his wounds and feed him later when me and Shannie are finished helping our four friends downstairs.

"Michael should've been the one to help us, Sena." Shannie stated as we lifted one of the big and heavy futons, "He's the only male in the group and he's useless." She finished which made me laugh and almost drop the futon, almost letting her carry it alone but stopped myself from doing so as we made our way down the stairs.

"We can't really blame him, he's lazy." I said before we made it into the living room, laying the futon down before grabbing the other and also laying it down, then I went to my room again to open the other closet filled with blankets, pillows, pillow cases and other things to take a few pillows and blankets for Mindy, Michael, Axiesse and Ruka since they were going to sleep downstairs for tonight and would probably stay until the afternoon tomorrow.

"Thanks, Selie." Michael said to which I replied with a 'you're welcome', "Oh, by the way, where's Shannie going to sleep in?" He asked and turned to look at Shannie who was drinking water to ease her light dizzyness.

"My room. She's also going to help me clean and feed the puppy." I answered after I went to get a plastic bowl and poured some of the dogfood that Liz gave me earlier since she has about three dogs before I went over to the kitchen and opened the freezer, taking three tubs of the chocolate ice cream I always eat when I'm stressed, placing on one the table for Michael and Mindy to help themselves at before I went upstairs with the dogfood and two tubs of ice cream for me, Shannie and the dog.

"You couldn't even give me and Mindy one tub each?" Michael complained after I got back down to check on them and give them extra clothes to change into.

"Why? Did you help me and Shannie carry those down here? I don't think so." I answered with a shrug, handing over a huge sweatpants and an oversized grey shirt that I snatched from my older brother a few months earlier.

"We're going upstairs to tend to the puppy, then we'll go to sleep. You two as well, it's late. Good night, Mind. Good night, Mike." I said before me and Shannie went upstairs afted the two also said good night to us.

When we got into my room, I immediately opened the cabinet containing my pajamas and comfortable clothes I always wear when lounging around my room during the weekends, taking the blue pair I was wearing earlier after I showered before Axiesse invited me over to the party and a pink pair to give to Shannie while we were eating the ice cream.

"Here, it's going to be more comfy when we get changed." I said and she nodded, taking the pajamas and going to the bathroom inside my room to get changed. I figured that I should also get changed, so I quickly took off my make up with make up remover and tied my hair in a low ponytail after practically throwing my heels across the room and changing into my pajamas.

I felt like someone was staring at me but then again, I live alone, who would stare at me? Shannie is still in the bathroom too. After I was finished buttoning the last one of my top, I turned around to see the cute puppy looking at me.

"Oh, hey fluffy wuffy. You're awake? Here, eat up." I petted its head lightly before motioning to the dogfood only to be surprised when it didn't eat it and instead only looked at me. He was asleep the whole time and earlier his eyes were closed when I first saw him so I couldn't really look him in the eye. I only realized now that he has sharp golden eyes. Weird, is this normal for dogs? I don't really know, the only dog I had when I was younger had blue eyes.

"What? It's not poisoned." I said before I just shrugged and went downstairs to take the lasagna I ate earlier while I was writing a new chapter for my novel and after putting in on a plastic plate, I went back upstairs to give it to the puppy.

"There, it's not a dogfood, picky eater." I muttered but smiled when I saw that he started happily devouring it, pouring water on a plastic cup and putting it next to him afterwards.

"Oh, he's eating. That's good." Shannie commented after she got out of the bathroom.

"Yeah, he didn't want to eat the dogfood. That's why I gave him lasagna instead." I stated before taking the heels I was wearing earlier and put it away, "By the way, Shannie. I have some make up remover over there, you can use it, I already did and went downstairs to wash my face earlier."

"Yeah, thanks." She said and went over to the vanity mirror and proceeded to wipe all her make up away. After she was finished and the puppy finished eating, me and Shannie decided to get some baby wipes and cleaned up the dog before we treated its wound.

"And, there we go. It's not too tight, right?" I asked the puppy after bandaging one of its legs although I knew I wouldn't get any answer, so me and Shannie laughed before we decided that it was time to sleep and so did the puppy. I gently put him unto the couch to sleep but it seemed adamant to sleep beside me and Shannie.

I figured that as long as he doesn't make a mess out of my bedsheets, I wouldn't mind him sleeping on my bed. With that said, I picked him up and placed him between me and Shannie before it licked both of our cheeks making us both laughed before we talked to each other about a lot of things for a few minutes before we bade good night to each other and before I even knew it, Shannie was already fast asleep.

I was kept up by my thoughts though, not just any thoughts and I'm not contemplating my existence either, at least not this time.

I was thinking about the mysterious male from earlier. His spiky brown hair, his rare sharp golden eyes, his charisma, appeal, scent and voice. It was all so attractive, he's a very attractive male. Come to think of it, he looked like he was in a rush earlier when he left. Which is weird but I don't really care that much. I sighed before I turned to the puppy and Shannie who were asleep before I closed my eyes and decided that I should just go to sleep too.
