Anxi quietly remained in his room, unsure of what could possibly be happening downstairs as she anxiously sat on his bed. Xander's house is heavily guarded with gadgets so who could have possibly broken in??
He told her not to open the door, could it be someone dangerous? His expression didn't look like someone who was expecting a guest though.
She wasn't really scared about herself to her own surprise, she was more worried about Xander who chose to go down the stairs alone.
And he's not feeling well, what if~
She nearly jumped out of her skin the moment she heard a light knock on the door, her heart raced at incredulous speed since she had no idea who it could be but for some reason, it made her scared, she heard the knock again and patiently waited for Xander to speak but heard nothing to her dismay.
A deadly chill slowly started to settle in as her gaze landed on the door knob which suddenly moved, like someone was forcefully trying to open the door and she instantly got to her feet.
What if the door ends up breaking? or should she open it instead?
She instantly shook the thought away, Xander already told her not to open the door until she heard his voice so she would stick to that.
She sat on the bed again, swallowing her fears and suddenly....it stopped, the door knob stopped moving to Anxi's relief and she could hear footsteps fading lightly from the doorstep.
Few minutes later, she heard a knock again making her sit upright.
"It's me, open the door."
Her terrified heart finally eased after hearing the familiar voice and she hurriedly went to open it up, Xander stood in front of her as he folded his arms.
He didn't fail to notice the fright in her big sparkling eyes and it was expected.
"Scared?" He asked and was expecting her to question the hell out of him about what just happened but she hurried to his side, glancing across the hallway alarmingly to make sure there was no one there before meeting his gaze.
"Are you alright? Did anything happen to you?" She worriedly checked him to make sure he was perfectly fine, leaving Xander completely taken aback.
This girl never fails to leave him totally amused.
Isn't she supposed to question him and run out of his house after experiencing something like that?? Any normal person would obviously do that.
"You weren't scared?" He asked, unable to hide the surprise in his tone and she met his gaze, noticing the surprise as well.
"Of course I was, the door knob kept moving and I nearly screamed, whoever your guest was really had the intention of breaking that door."
He chuckled lightly as she poured it all out and that seriousness in him had faded.
"Aren't you brave?"
"But who was that?" She didn't want to pry into his personal life but she couldn't deny exactly what she felt, it was something dark and powerful, super intimidating that made her bones shiver at the powerful aura.
It was no different from Xander's except….she wasn't scared of Xander.
"Just some unwanted guest." He strode into his room after replying casually like it was some old friend who chose to pay a visit while she followed him behind.
Unwanted guest? If they were so 'unwanted' like how he placed it, how did they get in??
He stopped walking and turned to look at her. Confused, she raised her small head up to meet his gaze and once again, her eyes fell on his exposed chest, like seriously he should zip up.
"Where are you going?" He lifted his brow at her making Anxi come to a stop.
"Hmm?"
"I'm going to take a bath, or do you plan on joining me?"
Anxi realized at the spur of a moment that she just followed him to his bathroom and her pupils unknowingly dilated at the sight.
"I_I didn't…..It was a mistake!" As expected, she became flustered, she was so lost in her own thinking she didn't even realize this.
She quickly turned to leave when he suddenly grabbed her hand, making her look at him.
She looked so flustered right now he had to suppress his own laugh, but at the same time, she looked too adorable and he couldn't just let her leave like that.
Since she followed him here, she'll just have to do the needful.
"Too late." His hypnotic voice made her blink at him and she met his gaze, confused by what he meant.
"What do you~"
His eyes sparkled like crescent Moon and her lips got claimed as he tilted her chin up, crashing his lips on hers to silence her.
Anxi couldn't resist blinking off the dizziness in her eyes as he kissed her, every other day she'd try to push him away but for some reason, it sort of felt different today.
His kisses were always irresistible and it was something she found hard to run away from, no matter how much she tried.
She chose not to run from it instead, encircling her hands around his neck as she tiptoed to kiss him deeply and he wrapped his arms around her, lifting her up her feet and taking her in before shutting the bathroom door.
