Chapter 5 - Sitting in a mystery

I paused for a few seconds not knowing what to do or say. I laid my hands over my boobs and then sat quietly in the back of his car.

"I am sorry for staring." He said with his eyes fixed on my skin.

Was he really sorry with the way he stared or he just said it to make me feel at ease?

Well too bad it's not working!!, can you please stop staring?

"Why do you have so much marks all over your skin?." He asked.

Realization hit me at his question, I moved backwards further, my back hit against the unlocked door.

"Look away!!." I cried out.

"Okay." He said and immediately turned his head away from me.

I pushed myself towards the front sit to see if there was anything I could wear but I found nothing.

I looked around but yet there was nothing

"Can I eat inside the car?." I asked him nervously.

He made an attempt to turn before i stopped him.

"Don't look!!, please." I could hear how shaky my voice sounded and the feeling of fear ate me to the point I couldn't think straight.

"I could carry you in and then you could have some clothes in my wardrobe." He offered.

"We didn't go to the restaurant?." I asked him.

Where has he taken me?, what was going on. Things are happening too fast that I could barely think straight .

"Well I was confused so I drove us back home." He informed me gently.

I raised my head to meet his eyes fixed on me, I was sitting on the car chair while hugging my kneel with my head buried between my hands and kneel.

"It's your choice dear." 

"Okay. Thanks."

It felt as though I didn't have a choice or any other reasonable options, he closed the door from the end he was in and walked around the car to the other side of the door that my back was resting on.

He opened the door gently while I tried my best not to fall out of the car, I felt warm fabric on my skin and then I turned around to see he had placed his blazer over my shoulder.

I slide my hands inside and wore it properly, he slide his hands beneath me and then carried me out of the car. 

He locked his car while I hide my face in shame.

"Are you scared of just a pair of eyes?." He chuckled.

Pair of eyes?, what does he means by that.

I pulled my hair from my face to see what he was talking about. I took a deep breath and immediately hid my face.

"Why are they so many people here?." I asked him.

Was this even a house or some hotel?.

"I am taking you to my penthouse, my living house is in the outscetch of town this was the fastest place to take you." He responded and kissed my forehead.

"Is this some kind of dream?." I thought out loud.

^^^^

I felt him suddenly stop then move again but for only a few seconds then he was back to standing.

"You can look up now!, scared princess." I could bet he had a smile on his face.

"I am not a princess and I am definitely not scared!!." I scolded him.

"Okay!!." He said and started moving again.

He placed me on a soft surface and I looked up at him, his lips were a few inches away from me and all I could feel was the urge to kiss him.

I had never felt attracted to a man before so what changed?, why the sudden attraction.

I moved closer, I placed my finger between his shirt and skin to pull him closer.

Our lips clashed closer and we both shared a passionate kiss. His tongue dominated mine as he came closer, his big body hovered above me.

"You're too young." He murmured as he broke the connection.

"Huh?." I was breathless and shaking.

"You're scared little one." He kissed my cheek. 

He walked towards the bar while unbottoning his shirt.

What does he mean by I am too young?.

"For a werefox you're strong." He looked back at me with a smirk on his face.

"A what?!!."

What is wrong with this man?, what's a werefox.

"Get some rest little one, when you're awake we can have a proper conversation." He spoke while pouring himself a glass of some drink I didn't know the name of.

I nodded to his words, my muscles were aching and my head spinning, he wasn't wrong to ask me to take a nap which I deprately needed. 

I laid down on his huge bed and pulled the duvet from underneath my body to cover my half naked body.

——

I yawned while stretching my cramped muscles. I looked around in confusion. Though I had slept on a expensive bed with beautiful white silk bedsheets and a beautiful view from the glass windows that touched down at Zaydens penthouse I had woken up in a completely different room.

There was shelf's on every inch of the wall with beautiful books, each shelf had its own color of books in it, it went from blue, to green, to pepper red books and brown beautiful leafy books.

"What is this?, a library?." I vocalized my thoughts in confusion but yet great astonishment.

"Technical no but you can call it that."

The slowing came open with a shirtless man standing infront of it, he stood with his shoulder pressing against the door frame and his legs crossed against each other while sipping a cup of steaming hot tea or many coffee.

"Where have you taken me?." I asked in a wary tone.

"My house." Zayden told me. "I am sorry for taking you in your sleep." He apologized.

"What happened to me in your car?." I asked him, worried about the unknown.

He walked towards me and sat on the reading desk chair, with his eyes on me, he offered me a cut of tea which I rejected immediately.

"No thank you, I would love an explanation first." 

I wasn't ready for another surprise while I sat in a mistary. I looked up at Zayden who nodded to my words.

"You're a werefox." He informed me.

He paused to watch my reaction which I gave him none, I stared at him blankly in confusion of what he was speaking about.

"A werefox is like a werewolf but instead they…"

I caught his sentence short when realization began to hit me right at the middle of my chest.

"I am a human who can transform into a Fox!!." I cried out in fear.

My heart was racing and my eyes watering.

"Not quite frankly but you are a shape shifter."

"What do you mean not quite frankly?." I asked.

Couldn't Zayden just go straight to the point?, why did he try to make everything complicated and long?.

"You are not a human."

"Hold up!!, what!!." I screamed.

"You're a shapeshifter." He explained.

"My mom was also a shape shifter." I mumbled to myself in realization. 

I took deap breaths trying to understand what was going on with my body. I slide down to the edge of the bed, I placed my elbows on my knees and rested my chin on my palm.

I took a deap breath before speaking. "I hear this voice in my head, we sound similar but she is more confident, some worth manipulative and calm." I explained.

"That's your inner Fox." 

He moved forward and planted a kiss on my forehead
