Chapter 16
Hours later, reluctantly, I headed back to Darius’ mansion with Reina in my arms. She was sleeping soundly after several hours of jumping, singing, and playing in my mom’s house. My inom indulged her in all the hours she spent and she loved every bit of it. It made me realize how lonely she must have felt staying home alone. I felt bad and scared.
“Give her to me, Nibbles,” Darius stretched his arms out as we walked into the house through the back door. I didn’t take the front door because I was trying to afford confrontation with anyone, especially Darius. Now, I can’t even escape him because he’s standing right there in front of me.
“I can handle her on my own” I insisted.
I brushed past him as if he meant nothing and took the stairs to Reina’s room. I tucked her into the bed after changing her clothes. Darius tried helping at first by giving me some of her clothes but I tossed them away and picked some new ones myself. When he realized I wasn’t going to accept his help, he walked to the door. I thought he was leaving but he surprised me by leaning against the doorframe, folding his arms over his stomach, and keeping his eyes on me and Reina all though.
I switched off the lights in her room and left only the ones shining against the curtains surrounding her bed alone before I walked to the door. Darius didn’t move. Thanks to his large frame, there was no way I could walk past him because of the little

“Asking for help or receiving help is not a criminal offense, Nibbles,” He mumbled. I could feel his breath against my ski and that caused a tingling feeling in my stomach.
“I’m not st*pid, Darius You’re trying to take my child away from me. So, no! Thank you for your help but no, thank you. ]
don’t need you and I’ll never need you,”
“Listen….” His finger brushed my lips and I moved back as if I was on fire.
“You should leave, Darius. You’re going to wake her up
The fact that he could stand in front of me after he embarrassed me in front of everyone like that in the kitchen hours ago baffled me. He didn’t even believe me when I said I didn’t do it and he only believed me when I claimed I did hurt her.
“Is this because of what happened this morning?” He put his palm under my chin and I slapped his hand off. I ha lied when I said I didn’t hate him but I swear I do. I could skin him alive if I had the chance.
“Just f*ck off, Darius,”
“Do you want to talk about it?” he asked.
Immediately, I saw red. “Talk about what exactly? The fact that you made me admit I hurt her or the fact that you would do something like that,”

y covered my mouth with his palm. My eyes bored into his, questioning the st*pid reason why he was stoppin me from talking. “You’ll wake her up,” He pointed to Reina. “Let’s talk in my room,”
“Over my dead body,” I spat. “I don’t want to be anywhere near you. Stay away for your own good,”
Since he had moved away from the door, I used that opportunity to also walk out of the room. I was fuming. I was mad. I could hear his footsteps behind me, walking so closely to me budall I wanted was an escape from him. Standing close to him clouds my senses. I’m not able to think when I’m supposed to and I always end up doing something st*pid or saying something delirious.
Nibbles, wait!” Right before I could walk into my room, he grabbed my hand and pulled me to me. He pressed my back against the door frame of his room and held onto my shoulders.
“What the hell do you think you’re doing?” I whispered, trying not to wake others up.

“Why are you so f*cking stubborn, Nibbles?” He had a smirk plastered on his lips.
“Rather than complaining, why don’t you shut up and get out of my face?”
I spat. “Complain, why would I complain about that? That shit turns me on. I love it when you act stubbornly with me. It makes me wonder how your body would react to mine when I finally have you screaming my name,”
I would be lying if I said his words didn’t affect me. His message wasn’t being received by my head or my heart. It was being received by the wet folds between my legs and with the way my heartbeat was racing, I could say I was getting close to jumping him.
“Let me help you,” He mumbled so close to my mouth. I could feel his hot breath on my lips and the smell of buttermint candy, his favorite in my nose even though it was already registered In my head.RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only

He shook his head. His lips moved from my lips to my neck and I shivered when I felt his tongue danced against the skin of

“Nibbles. I’m not talking about Reina, Im talking about this,” He suddenly palmed my *ussy. I thought I was letting out a scream but when a moan left my mouth, I realized I was done for

“Don’t make me a murderer again, baby. I would kill whoever takes in the sweet scent of your arousal or do as much as look at you. I would kill them,” He repeated. His face wasn’t buried in my neck anymore. He was looking at me now with so much passion in his eyes. If he stared at me like that again, I swear I would be spreading my legs without realizing it.
“I don’t want to have anything to do with you again, Darius,”
“I know. Even though I want to have everything to do with you, I can’t force you and I won’t force you. It’ll be nice to let you know that I want to fuck you and make it worth a while.
His lips were dancing so close to me, dangerously too close.
“But I won’t force you, baby,” He repeated, moved his lips to my ear and whispered. “If anyone dares touch y
