In S city.
Night was busy packing her things as she was going to a short business trip outside the city, to his disappointment she looked happier compare to his sullen face, was she that eager to leave him? it was still early yet she was already packing her bags ready to leave.
" The flight is tomorrow morning" Gold reminded as he could feel her eagerness like she was leaving now.
" I know just can't help it" Night said unable to stay still.
Eversince he got sick he was sleeping in her room and Night didn't seem against it or even care.
Her nonchalant attitude towards him was really frustrating it feels like nothing could stir that frozen ice inside her, she was like a cold wall.
No matter how warm he applied it wasn't working.
After taking bath Night was busy moistening her body and checking herself out.
She was wearing sexy pink silky nightdress hardly covering up to her butts and the short was even below that if he didn't know better he would think she was purposeful seducing him but alas! it was her style and way of life in fact all her dresses were like that, eye-catching and provocative.
Lying on the bed he felt like running towards her but he knew better not to do so.
Night seem to notice his intense gaze on her but continued with what she was doing, who cares he came himself to her room whatever she does should not bother him, she thought.
Lifting her bare legs while applying body cream slowly Night was taking her time changing to another in similar provocative manner enough to dry somebody's throat.
Gold was silently praying for his torture to end, even though he wanted to avert his gaze his eyes were not supportive, she was like a magnet attracting him towards her.
So he was watching while clenching his hands tightly into a fist, less he made his way towards her.
He could swear seeing a smirk on her face in a side glance as she seem to notice his heated gaze.
And after what felt like forever she finally stopped her night rituals and retire to sleep.
That reminded him of few days ago when he decided to sleep in, she said nothing against the idea.
He had thought things were finally coming around only to have a boarder of pillows in between.
It was as simple as breaking a loaf of bread to him and it was childish to think he could not cross the boundary.
So late at night he turn towards her reminiscing about the other night when she hug him tightly he wanted the same and wished to experience the same feeling again.
But the moment he lifted one pillow he heard her cold words.
" Do you need to change rooms?.."
And she was like a soldier vigilant and alert compare to how heavy sleeper she appeared to be the other night.
Sigh!
She was at it again burning him without a slight relief.
Looking at the way she was sleeping was another thing greater than her body exposing clothes.
She was the definition of a temptress and she was definitely good at it without even trying, it was a torture.
But he knew better to bear the pain than to feel nothing, to get hot rather than freeze to death.
" Good night" he said.
" mmh good night" she replied then slept.
But it wasn't really good for him and the night was another battle field until exhaustion took him to sleep.
