Chapter 314 - The Strong Bond - III
Adaline felt the extreme warmth that was almost suffocating her. Desperate for some air, her eyes snapped open and she removed the blanket to her stomach only to notice that it was someone else that was giving her that warmth.
It was the man that was sleeping next to her.
Xavier had her snuggling to his chest and he was radiating more heat than necessary.
He had his leg on top of her and his arms were wrapped around her body.
For a moment she felt like she was a squishy to a grown ass man.
"Um," she cleared her throat politely and tapped on his shoulder not wanting him to wake up abruptly. "Xavier, you need to let go."
Not to mention the fact that she suddenly felt the unbearable pressure building on her bladder and the weight of his leg did not help.
The man did not move.
"Xavier!" She hissed in building anger. "Move, I need to go to the bathroom!"
At her endless tapping, he finally groaned and just when Adaline assumed that he would move away he ended up almost squeezing her to death by pulling half of his weight on her.
"Hay!" The word came out muffled as she was barely breathing at this point.
Adeline got a hold of his hair and pulled with all her might, "Xavier, get off me!" She pulled harshly and pulled his head away from her neck making him open his eyes lazily and full of sleep.
"What?" He murmured out half asleep and that annoyed the hell out of her.
"Get off of me!" She raised her voice little knowing that it would be no less than a shout for him.
He sighed and then closed his eyes before lying his head on top of her breasts. "No."
She huffed before repeating the action and pulling his hair again making him pull his head up. "Move! Now!" She growled and tried to push him with both of her hands, "Now! Xavier, I really can't control any more!"
He huffed before making a sour face. "Why?"
Oh my god, Adeline couldn't do it anymore. "Because I want to fucking pee!" She shouted at the top of her voice not being able to take the pressure anymore.
At this point, Adaline had squeezed her legs together to make sure that she did not let go.
Even though this had been the most angry that she had ever been with him, Xavier merely rolled his eyes and took a turn in the huge bed moving away from her.
The moment he did that, Adeline shot out of the bed in record speed and ran to the bathroom that was almost half a mile away.
She should have expected that given that this man was living on the floor that was bigger than the two houses that he had left in her entire life. He lived on what she would say was a whole floor in the palace.
Relieving herself, she washed her hands only hissing in return when she found the water was cold.
Now she had a lot of things to do with this place.
If she was going to stay here, then Xavier would have to make sure that this place had a constant supply of hot water and the bathroom was not supposed to be that far away.
The hot water thing was something she received in the house of her uncle without a word and if she could get it there, then Xavier could provide her that without a word of protest.
Returning back to the bedroom she found him already off and looking at her as she waited for her to come back.
Just as she was within the reach he held out his hand for her to take.
And the first thing he did after she took his hand was to put her in the bed and wrap her around with the sheets before cuddling close to her.
With a sigh and a shake of her head Adeline said in a hoarse voice, "you are awfully clingy, Xavier."
His chest rumbled slightly as he chuckled. "I just love you."
She chuckled, being unable to control her happiness. "Thank you for that."
Silence descended on them for a moment as Xavier breathed into her shoulder and she stared at the ceiling while playing with his hair that she had previously pulled.
Somewhere it seemed that he was hiding something. After being together for so long and through so much, Adaline could tell if he was hiding something or not. It was like a feeling inside her gut that was telling her something was fishy.
"What are you hiding?" She whispered to him. "I feel like you want to say something."
"I do." Adelene could feel his smile on her skin when she said that.
"Well, what is it?"
He sighed a little before moving away from her neck and propping himself on his elbow. "It's something related to the mark. Do you think you would be comfortable hearing it now or should I do it after breakfast?"
Knowing what happened in between them it must be hard for him to step up and actually reveal what he was thinking.
To put him out of his misery I'm not trying to extend any further adaline answered, "Now please. Till breakfast I can think about it and ask more questions."
He nodded and sat upon the bed making Adaline do the same. But when she sat up, he leaned over and covered her with the blankets making sure that she stayed warm.
"Sorry," He grumbled as he fixed the heavy blanket around her, "I was not expecting you to choose to stay here neither was expecting this to happen so soon. I would make sure I have a heating system and hot water available."
Awwie, her heart.
She shook herself out of it. Her heart was doing cartwheels in her chest.
"So," she probed, "what is it that you want to talk about?"
