Chereads / The Hot Nerd / Chapter 17 - Chapter 17

Chapter 17 - Chapter 17

Miranda POV

I've been staring at the hot guy I met at the dinner party two weeks ago through the magazine I was pretending to read.. immediately he turned I equally turned my attention back to the magazine which was suprisingly very interesting now.

My heart was pounding like crazy. Since when did typing on a laptop look so ...sexy?

Common! Just look at those fingers..

Imagine what they can do to my body..

God!

What am I thinking!! Since I met this guy my hormones have been acting up.. I usually don't have any sexual attraction to any guy but...

This guy is just so appealing to me in an unbelievably sexual way and it's freaking me out!

I should keep my distance but I always find myself getting closer to him.

"Miranda!"

"Huh?"

"What were you thinking, I've been calling you.."

"Huh... Sorry I was preoccupied with my thoughts, what is the problem?"

"It was nothing too serious, a virus. Someone was trying to hack into it". I frowned, seems like my competitors are trying to play dirty. I would have gotten rid of the laptop, just that some really important files were still there and they haven't been backed up yet.

"I see.. anything else?" I asked walking slowly towards, and for the first time pushing the effect he had on me to the back of my mind. The files in my laptop wasn't just important but highly confidential and no one was to know about it. I was a bit suspicious cos if he opened those files...

Skylar POV

I was thinking of going easy on her until I unintentionally opened up a file and my while mood changed..

How can a lady this pretty be this inhumane?

The files were about converting people's business but Darren's father was at the top list with strategies to take over the business and another file had to do with what would be done with Darren. . it was not pretty at all .. Everything about these files spelt the word GREED... She really was evil and was playing dirty.. too dirty!

I transferred the files to my phone through a link and got rid of the link immediately I was done and immediately I got off the page, she was directly beside me. She eyed me suspiciously but I acted like I didn't know what she was thinking, that seem to put her at ease as she went through her laptop after offering me to sit on a couch.

5hours later..

She was still typing away in her laptop. For a greedy person she sure was hardworking. In the five hours I was here she only had coffee. Some important figures have been here both males who were suspicious of me and females who were annoying! Gosh! I get it, am good looking but they're being too much especially when Miranda wasn't looking but I knew she saw it all and the way she threw daggers at them with her eyes confirmed it.

My plan was going accordingly... I was having an effect on her..

"Can you come with me to some where?"

I raised an eyebrow.

"A bar... Am meeting a nasty but important guest"

"So?"

Miranda POV

"I'll buy you a drink" he smirked.

"I can afford the bar itself". I wasn't expecting that reply but something about the way he said it made my fingers tingle.. of course he was rich!

And for the first time in my life I wanted a sugar baby, him.

Truth is, I just wanted to spend more time with him, not that I could not go on my own but I wanted his company and I wanted to flaunt him before Eric who thinks he's so goodlooking and unbeatable. I want to see the look on his face when he sees my Skylar... Just the thought of it livened my mood.

"Why not get him drunk and get some sugar.."

What!

My subconsciousness whispered to me which was making my face turn red cos I've never had such thoughts.

"Don't you wanna ride on that eye candy? Admit it, you want to just like Wendy!

Just look at him! Imagine you having fun with him, don't you want to know how he feels?"

My pen fell out of my hand to the floor. Images of a naked me riding on a moaning naked man with Skylar's face in-between silk white sheets appeared before my eyes.

I shook my head to clear the scene from my mind because it was starting to mess with my sanity and breathing..

Why was here so hot?? I was having a little difficulty breathing.

"Are you ok?" I looked up to see the cause of my misery with a little concerned on his face.

"Or at the beach in the middle of the night... Imagine him telling you what to do and begging you not to stop... In that voice..." I knew this was my evil side speaking but I couldn't stop...

Images of Skylar holding me to himself with my name on his lips as I 'danced' on him with his back against a palm tree which was a few meters away from the beach with the reflection of the full moon above us in the water...

Oh God!

What is happening to me? Since the thought of making him my sugar baby my mind has been corrupted!

In just a minute, I've had so much dirty thoughts and this guy here was the cause of it all! I was so freaking wet!

I was angry with myself but deep down I so badly wanted to try it! And the innocent guy knew nothing about it..

My thoughts were everywhere...

What if something happened at the bar????

My toes curled in my shoes as my stomach did a flop with butterflies... I dabbed my sweaty forehead as I increased the AC and tried to focus on my work...

Skylar POV

Gottya!

I know that look...

She's almost there... Her mind is... Dirty but.. She's battling with it..

Miranda POV

At the bar...

I came back from the restroom and my seat was taken by a lady who was obviously a slut!

I clenched my fists in anger as I saw her trying to rub Skylar's chest. Almost every girl around the table had eyes on Skylar.

I was in my world of fury as I saw a mocking smirk on Eric's face. We were almost done with the deal and I couldn't leave yet.

I felt a hand on my wrist and when I looked down to my hand I saw his over mine as he dragged me gently down to sit on his lap, slowly he uncurled my fisted hands and laced my fingers with his.

"Would you like a drink? You haven't taken a sip since you got here" he said while pushing a strand of hair away from my face which had come loose due to my earlier frustration.

"You're still prettier than everyone here"

He whispered sweetly in my ear which softened my heart and made it swell with pride. I shouldn't but I couldn't help smiling like a teenager noticed by her crush. As I took a gulp.

10mins later...

I was consuming alcohol at a very fast rate just so I can distract myself from the effect of his fingers on my bare skin.

He was literally playing my body like a keyboard. His hands was casually on my thigh and moved around once in a while. I was fighting the feeling with alcohol but it wasn't helping and now I felt tipsy.

"Am taking you home" was the only thing I heard before I was taken out... Is it his or mine?

Nina POV

I was just done undressing and picked up my robe heading to the bathroom when I felt a presence behind me and so I turned around to see Chen facing the door with his back to me.

Instinctively I wrapped my hands over my body in defensive mode.. did he see me?

The horror of the reality hit me and I froze.. am very insecure about my body mainly because of the type of girls Chen hang out with. They all had killer bodies but I was just a male looking female.

I will never talk to him or be able to look him in the eye if I find out that he saw me... Naked.

"I didn't see anything, am just coming in. You done?"

"Yeah" relief washed over me.. he won't lie to me right?

Slowly he turned around and once again my bestie made my heart race in my chest. He was in a red top and immaculate white pants with white sneakers that had 'ICE' on them. My fashion guru...

"Hey"

"Hey"

"You look strained, is there a problem?"

"No. You know what, just go take a shower we'll talk when you're done"

"Ok" he smiled. It did things to me!

Chen POV

Immediately she locked herself in I fell on one knee.

My legs were so weak that I fell on my other knee, practically, I was on my knees cos of the view of what I just saw...

I've see a lot of women.. but today... I fell on my knees before one, Nina...

Beautiful!

Gorgeous...

Absolutely stunning!

She was beautiful! From her hair to her cute little toes...

The fact that I have a crush on her wasn't helping as images of the last piece of clothe falling to the floor and revealing her in all her glory...

It's quite chilly outside but my back was drenched with sweat and some rolled down my face as I struggled to get the images that was now glued to my mind out but that was the most impossible task I've ever embarked on and my legs won't listen to me.

Suddenly, the door to the bathroom swung open and my heart almost leapt out of my body.

I was still on my knees...

First, the cute wet foot stepped out, then the other and now...

Her legs up to her thighs were bare!

Sweet Jesus!!

Mother of God!

Please help my poor heart...

My heart was in a marathon race as she came into full view.

Her hair was wrapped up in a white towel but drops if water still fell at the side of her face. Her small face looked so soft with a mixture of pink and white, must be from the hot shower. She was no longer in the robe but a towel!

Dear lord she's in a towel! A towel! A freaking short towel that barely covered her thighs!

Her shoulders glittered from the water on them and escaped into the towel. Her long legs were a sight to behold and it was very bad for my heart. At this rate it may fly out of my chest... How long are those legs?

Imagine them wrapped around my waist..

I shook my head to clear out the stupid thoughts about my bestie, the word suddenly left a bitter taste in my mouth.

"What are you doing in the floor?" She asked and I looked up but regretted it immediately cos right in front of me stood Nina with her arms across her chest and the 'twins' were threatening to burst out at any time!

Dear Lord, I know I don't speak much with you but please... Save me! Just this once! Make her stop!

All the beings in heaven... Please help.!!!!.. Every deity out there please help!!

I can't feel my sanity!

I think they heard me cos she gently removed her hands from under there and there was concern on her face.

"Are you ok? Why are you sweating so much?"

She came closer and now my torture was doubled as she came closer to me and her sweet smell of citrus and strawberries filled my senses making me ache so bad...

She squatted to my level and I got a clearer view of the smooth beautiful skin which was in my face...

The urge to bury my face at the crock of her neck was overwhelming... Why do I badly want to mark her?

A hickey right there will look good on her...

"Chen.. Chen! Why do you keep blacking out? What's going on?"

I snapped back to reality.

'"I think my legs are cramped".

"Oh .. sorry, come on, I'll help you get in the bed".

My heart skipped a beat.. why does that sound dangerous?

She helped me up with little difficulty but my legs still won't listen to me so we fell..

On the bed!..

Oh God!!!;

Can this day get any worse?

Nina POV

Our faces were just inches apart but the guy below me was stiff like a log of wood, his eyes tightly shut and he was holding into the duvet like his life depended on it.

He wasn't breathing??

What is wrong with him today?

I tried to sit up but accidentally fell back on top of him and heard him groan close to my ear.

Whooph... Ok that was low key sexy...

Why was his heart beating so fast? It was like people were working there..

I got up on one elbow and looked into his face.

Charming! Handsome and cute as always.

He was bitting his lower lip randomly and it was really distracting cos I wanted to be the one doing that..

What the hell is wrong with me?

"Chen what's wrong?"

Slowly he opened his eyes and the beautiful green orbs came in view.

They looked helpless.. so helpless and dark..

"Can you get down?"

He's voice was strained, seriously I was beginning to get pissed off. What was his problem? Is he ill?

I moved down a little and tried to get up by pressing down my waist , but I got a shocking reaction from him.

He trembled a bit as his head fell backwards, eyes tightly shut,short gasp, lip caught in-between his teeth and his Adam's apple moving up and down. His grip on the duvet was tighter than ever.

Gosh!

That's the sexiest thing I've ever seen...

The fact that I had such an effect on him low key turned me on.

"Nina... get off... PLEASE..." He barely whispered with his eyes weakly starring at the celling.

I felt the desperation in his voice while he pleaded and my mind kept warning me not to do it a second time cos it screamed danger!

But my body seemed to have a mind of its own as I moved lower with my hips and pressed down with my waist... My eyes never leaving his face...

His back arched... till only his head touched the bed, falling backwards.. with his eyes shut.

"NINA..."

My name left his lips in the deepest most helpless moan I ever heard...

My heart did a flip flop causing butterflies in my tummy...

How the hell does a guy moaning turn me on so bad? For a second there I couldn't breathe. THE THINGS I WANT TO DO TO THIS GUY... Those lips...

"Moñ deo! Nina what are doing?"

"...."

"Don't do that it's dangerous... " He said still with his eyes closed and one hand grabbing his hair still looking helpless.

My stubborn waist moved again and he groaned and before I knew it, I was in his former position and Chen was above me looking down at me but his eyes never left my lips after they left my eyes. He got so close to giving me a kiss but stopped himself right on time with great difficulty much to my disappointment.

"I gotta go.."

With that he was out of the door and I suddenly felt empty but a bit to my senses.

"What just happened?"

Kathy POV

"Where are you?"

I got the phone off my ear and stared at the unknown number on my phone screen. Who the hell had the guts to talk to me so casually?

"Who are you?"

"Am at the door"

The voice sounded familiar... Just who is this? I thought long and hard.... Then it clicked. Skylar!

How did he get my number? And now that I checked the number again, it was the number of one of the body guards downstairs.. how did he get his hands on it and why is he at my house?

How did he even know about this place? Who let him in?

I was literally flying down stairs with all these questions ringing in my mind but the joy of seeing him here with a racing heart and the fear that it may be a dream was evident in my mind.

Forgetting that I could be easily kidnapped or the fact that it could have been a prank call, I flung open the door and right in front of me stood the one guy that has been making my heart beat out of rhythm... And behind him was a large pile of human bodies in black suits scattered around the compound.

They were my bodyguards... Specially and well trained too.. what were doing lying on the floor? Some were wining in pain but majorly every other person lay still and unconscious... It was literally like a massacre.. a battle field after the battle!

Did he...?

Oh no...

I looked up at him and saw blood tickling down the side of his face reminding me of the first time I actually got to see his face. Before I could even say anything I was dragged into a tight embrace with my head gently but firmly held to his chest... And I couldn't see anything behind him anymore as he towered over me.

He was so tense that his body was so stiff.. am surprised he's not broken into two yet. His heart was beating so painfully fast that his breathing came out short and fast. He was having the same reaction he had in the hospital some time ago. Out of instinct I gently patted his back while relaxing in his arms that felt quite comfortable. Slowly, his body loosened up and got back to normal as he breathed a sigh of relief. Meanwhile, I was breathing in the wonderful smell if him. His cologne was out of this world! It smelt like the night breeze by the sea side with the scent of rose petals and blackberries.. was that.. mint? I took a deep breath.. yeah it is..

He smelt like seduction... And I loved it!

Snap out of it girl! He's hurt!

That brought me back to reality as I waited a little longer before speaking up.

"You're hurt"

No response

"Doesn't it hurt?"

No response

Slowly I looked up to see his face cos suprisingly, his silence wasn't rude but a bit reluctant.

He's eyes were tightly closed as if in pain. I disengaged from the hug and dragged him to the sitting room while I ran out to get the first aid kit.

Minutes later I was almost done finishing the last touch when I heard a voice

"What's all the fuzz about?" That was my dad! Oh God! What do I do? What if he hurts Skylar?

Slowly he decended from the stairs with two of his personal bodyguards, both of them huge and twice the size of Skylar.

Dad looked around and saw the servants who were peeping through the windows,doors and walls trying to escape back to there work. Dad was confused until he saw Skylar on the couch and I with a first aid kit. His confusion was replaced with anger.

"Who let this thing into my house?? And had the guts to make my daughter work! For him! Get rid of him"

He gave the order and his bodyguards moved into action and I got scared... Scared for him and for the bodyguards too but more worried about his injury...

**********

Am still trying to get used to the fact that Skylar always turns his predators to preys as the two bodyguards were moaning in pain on the floor..

It happened so fast that I almost didn't see it.

He held me behind him and right now a gun was pointed in my father's face and the shock on his face was unimaginable. Trust me dad I understand... I once tried to mess with him and I got the result.

I rushed in front of him although his grip was still on my wrist.

"Skylar that's my dad.. please?" I was looking him in the eye but his cold face never left my dad.

"You just died"

He said in the most unemotional voice I ever heard. The voice was dead like it was already used to death and it made me shudder while my father's face grew more shocked.

Then just like that, he pointed the gun down and the sound of the gunshot filled the room as I ran into his chest out of fear without knowing and the scream of one of the bodyguards pointing a gun at him echoed in the sitting room. I was so scared that I buried my face in his chest shaking but with his other hand he held me to himself as he briefly rubbed on my back like one soothing a child and it immediately calmed me down.

"That's my daughter!" Dad spoke through his teeth.

"SHE'S MINE" said Skylar and that made my heart stop for a second...

"Why are you here" I asked the guy who was securely holding me but still pointing a gun to my dad, in order to make the atmosphere less tense.

"The doctor said to take my meds twice a day. In the morning and at night, so missed the morning so I came to get it". His voice held some emotions now.

What was he saying?

Did he...?

Am I...?

Meds?

"It's you.." he said. And my heart beat seized a second time... Why is my heart always prone to heart failure whenever am around this guy?

Even after he left his words kept replaying in my mind..

".... she's mine..."

".... it's you...."

God! Am loosing my mind! But I was happy doing so!

Meanwhile my dad has been staring at the pile of unconscious bodyguards on the floor with shock and unbelief. It been more than 15mins but dad still couldn't believe it.

"Kathy, who was that?"

"A school mate"

"That's no ordinary student. An 18 year old kid can't do this! Which family is he from?"

"I don't know"

After a while I saw a small smile on his face. That was how he smiled whenever he was impressed. What's going on?

"He would make a good son in law" slowly dad turned to look at me with a very bright smile.

"Wait.. what?"

Who else is thinking what am thinking about Chen and Nina?
