Chapter 190 Riling Up Desires
Alex stared at them with wide eyes once their attention was focused on him.
"Uhhh... I uhh..." He stammered, pushing back on the bed.
Plop!
He looked puzzled at the white bangles that dropped onto the bed.
"Damnit!" Nix punched this hand in regret. "I had forgotten about that little detail."
Alex looked up at Nix the moment he said those words, they sounded important and most of all something he should have known earlier.
"The little girl strapped it onto your hair, it's strange you carried that for a while without noticing," Lank responded with a tease.
Alex's hand immediately ran through his blonde curtain hairstyle, disheveling it in the process. His mind trailed to when this had gone unnoticed.
'When I was unconscious.' He concluded, picking up the bangles and staring at them longingly.
"She said she wanted to apologize for putting you in danger and she would be much more careful next time." Nix related.
Nodding his head in response, he smiled at the bangle in his hands.
Not wanting to spend the whole day with Alex, he proceeded to round things up at that and let them rest.
"Sid, is there anything you would like to take from your previous room?" Nix clasped his hands together, looking hopeful at him.
'Previous room? Ha!' Shaking his head in response, Obsidian smiled at how ignorant Nix was and so were the others.
"I don't have anything to move over here apart from the clothes I'm wearing." Obsidian shrugged, proceeding to lick the back of his head again and brush it over his ear.
Nix felt disappointed with that statement, it almost felt like he wasn't treated humanely at the least.
His guesses on his change of clothes would be attributed to the fact that their walk-in closet still works the same as their wardrobe in the academy.
Feeling the awkward tension going on after Obsidian's words, he chose not to comment on it, but rather dash out while he still could, pulling Lank along with him.
With those two gone, Obsidian stood awkwardly still, slowly turning his attention towards a scared Alex.
Without as much as a reason, he left the room, slamming the door behind him.
Knock!
Knock!
"It's Obsidian, could I come in?" He whispered, looking up at room 3's gold tag on the door.
Click!
Solis was the first to appear, his smile broadened at the sight of his new feral friend before he immediately masked his initial joy with a stoic expression.
Clearing his throat, he raised his chin and spoke, "what brings you here?"
"Would you just let him in?! Stop acting all high and mighty, goddamnit!" Luna's voice boomed from the inside.
Obsidian's tail wagged in delight at the pleasant sound of the very person he came to check on.
Solis' shoulders drooped at the scolding from his sister, this was one of the times he wished his sister was still unconscious, she was less feisty that way and more docile.
'Way to ruin my big moment, sis.' Solis raised his hands to his face while he closed his eyes in regret.
Moving to the side, he allowed Obsidian access to their room.
"If you as much as touch her–"
"Solis!!!" Luna yelled in rage.
Solis let out a sigh, shook his head, and walked out.
Obsidian leaned on the wall, unsure of his next words nor why he had specifically cared to know how she was faring.
Luna simply stared at him with a big smile, her eyes never missing the number of blinks Obsidian did.
Enjoying the blissful silence, she let out a sigh to break off the mood. "A great adventure, am I right?" She let out a chuckle to ease the tension.
The corner of his lips raised, but a laugh was far from his mind. He still couldn't figure out what sort of magic she had done on him. The more he looked at her, the more grateful he was for her help.
"Thank you..." He finally said in a whisper. He had wanted to tell her this after the fight with the raenz as his pride wouldn't allow him at the initial stage.
When he had learned that she had been unconscious after he left, it felt like a stab to his heart.
Tilting her head to the right, she adjusted her posture on the bed by sitting up straight. Picking up the pillow and placed it behind her.
Her black lingerie lace chemises v back cotton a-line nightgown came into a full display, causing Obsidian to gulp at the bold display.
Luna's eyes trailed to where his eyes were glued, her full cleavage left little to his imagination as he tried his best to pull his gaze away.
This was the first time he would get to see a semi-unclad female's body in such a light.
His body heat rose and his thoughts were clouded with a bit of rising desire.
A smirk made its way to her lips. She was glad that her body had garnered such a reaction from him.
This only proved that he was more than a stiff wood–as referred to by her brother.
'Stay in control of your emotions, Obsidian!' He scolded himself, tearing his gaze away and focusing on the spiral design of the white ceiling.
Luna cursed at the fact that she couldn't walk for the time being as her lower half wasn't fully healed from the numbness she felt.
Sensing she was in a dilemma, Obsidian looked around for what she might need. Taking a sniff of the air, he walked towards her bed.
There was a faint smell of an ointment that made his desire get riled up.
Pulling away the covers from her body, he stared wide-eyed at the see-through nightgown below. Her matching black underwear made him do a double-take.
"What the heck are you doing?" Luna hissed, unprepared for the sudden leap in action he took without as much as a proper warning.
