Chapter 22 - Warmth and Care

Alynah froze at the sight before her. Kayden was drenched in the rain. His dark her clinged on his face, water dripping from his hair, down to his lashes, down to his face, his wet pink lips and to his tempting collar bone. He looked really hot and sexy that Alynah stared at him without blinking. This was surely the best sight she'd ever seen. 

Kayden smirked and grabbed her arms, pulling her closer. 

"You're so stubborn. Look now, you got us both drenched" he scrutinized her. Her red gown was clinging on her body, tightly, accentuating her every delicate curve. Alynah felt stark under his intent gaze and She slowly lowered her head. 

"Let's get in!" He held her hand and rushed inside. 

The door burst open and the duo entered, Kayden's hand was over Alynah's shoulders, shielding here protectively. He led her upstairs to his bedroom. The pushed the door and walked in. Alynah's walked in afterwards. She couldn't even savour the beauty of the room because of her condition. 

Kayden quickly got a blanket and wrapped it over her body. 

"You're shivering" he stated, worry and concern written all over his face. Alynah nodded with teeth chattering non-stop. 

"Wait here" he left to the walk-in closet and returned with a warm cozy hoodie. 

"Change into this. I don't think any of my joggers or pants will fit your size" he handed her the hoodie. Alynah slowly took it and looked up at him. He quickly understood what she meant and he excused her. 

As he left the room, Alynah quickly changed into the hoodie. It was so big, almost triple her size that it covered up to her thighs. Alynah didn't know how small she is until she wore Kayden's hoodie. She giggled and pulled the good over her head and laid on the bed, curling herself. 

Kayden returned with a hot cup of tea and was surprised to see her laying on the bed. He knew she's prone to be sick after she got drenched in the rain and he wanted to take care of her. So, he approached her. 

"Alynah" he called and Alynah jerked off. 

"Here, drink this" he handed her the cup. Alynah gently took it from him and smiled. 

"Thank you" she took slow sips. 

"You're welcome" Kayden replied. Alynah scrutinized him. He was still in the wet clothes and Alynah frowned.

"Won't you change? You'll get sick" she said. Kayden stared at her in amusement. He can't believe she's still concerned even in her condition. He smirked and shook his head.

"I'll change" he said and stood up. Wait! Is he going to change in front of her?! Alynah's eyes widened as she saw him remove his shirt. His strong muscled back came to her view. 'Don't look Aly!" She scolded herself and quickly lowered her head. Kayden chuckled at her funny reaction and went into the bathroom. 

He came out dressed in a grey sweat pants and white shirt and went to Alynah's side. He sat at the edge of the bed beside her and pulled her closer to himself. 

"I don't want you to be sick. I'll keep you warm" he said, wrapping his hands around her. Alynah gulped down nothing and lowered her head. 

They sat there, sipping tea and watching the rain outside. The moment was filled with care, concern and gratitude and Alynah felt glad that he's there for her. She felt a sense of comfort and warmth as she rested in his arms. It was protective and safe that she wished they'll stay like that for the rest of the day. 

Kayden looked down at the lady in his arms. She looked overly cute in that hoodie. He knew there's something mysterious about her, a painful secret that she's trying to hide and a sorrowful past. He'll care for her and make her forget those sorrowful memories. That's his promise. 

"Sir" Alynah looked up. 

"Uhmm" Kayden answered. 

"Thank you" she stated, staring into his grey eyes, her eyes brimming with gratitude. 

"My pleasure" Kayden smiled warmly. His voice was soft and gentle. They kept staring into each other's eyes as if trying to figure out something. Their face drew closer like a magnet pulling a metal. Kayden's eyes were on Alynah's lips, staring lovingly at her. 

Alynah's heat was racing as she waited in anticipation and curiosity. She knew what was going to happen, she doesn't want him to back off. She wanted him to do what he wanted to do. 

As their faces drew closer and their lips almost touched, Alynah's stomach growled. She gasped in shock and embarrassment as their intimate moments have been ruined.
