Craving For You

12. Don’t Keep Me Waiting



“I am Louis Anderson; The greatest.” He turned his head menacingly to meet her gaze as he said, “Never forget to add that.”

Wait! What?

She blinked as she looked at him; For the first time, she got to look into his eyes.

His eyes were amber!

Look how clear and pure his eyes are!

Skylar couldn’t look away from his eyes. They were alluring. She almost confused those eyes for an angel’s.

But could she dare to compare Louis to an angel?

“The …. What? She finally found her voice.

She blinked unbelievably as she looked at the man before her. He was tall, well built with a perfect physique. Every feature on his face was perfectly sculpted.

His chiseled jawline and thin lips were one to die for. It’s no wonder he was rumored to always make women fall at his feet.

“The greatest? She repeated in amazement but Louis mistook that for compliant.

He was once again impressed by her obedience. His anger from earlier had dissipated. She was forgiven.

“Really? Skylar laughed.

Why didn’t she ever notice that he was a narcissist?

Skylar stood still and her eyes looked on in awe as he stepped away from her. He marched into the bathroom leaving her standing stark naked in the room.

He didn’t tell her if she could put the clothes back on.

“Louis….” Skylar called out to him but she bit her lips and shook her head.

“Should I say the rest of the word? She wondered.

She closed her eyes tightly as she contemplated If she should call his name as he had asked.

She shook her head as she fought internally about what to do.

She didn’t know for how long she had been contemplating nor did she realize that he was back in the room until she heard his cold voice.

“Why are you still standing there?”

“Huh? I can go?” She muttered with joy.

She could finally go. Skylar almost danced with joy.

She has escaped a tragedy.

Her happiness knew no bounds as she hopped towards the bathroom.

“Get dressed and be prepared for the rest of it!”

“What?” Skylar’s jaw dropped.

Her joy was short-lived at Louis’s notification.

He didn’t even let her bask in joy for a minute longer.

Such a devil.

“I…. still have… to go through more?” Skylar couldn’t bring herself to say the word punishment.

What did she do to deserve to be punished anyway?

She only wanted to know more about her supposed husband. Is that a crime?

Louis ignored her melancholic expression and he inched closer. He grabbed her waist and held her chin with his other hand.

“Can’t stand it anymore?” He smirked.

He knew she wouldn’t last long. He was the master at breaking people and this little lamb before him, would surely break in no time.

“I… thought…. this… was ….. all….” Pursing her lips through each word, Skylar replied truthfully.

She thought that was all. She thought he had avenged the supposed gossip and she was free.

“Dream on,” Louis leaned to her ear as he whispered. “We’re only just getting started.”

“What do you mean?” Skylar snapped.

She was flustered. The way his warm breath kissed her cheek made her feel strange.

“I…. thought….” She immediately lowered her voice as she noticed his gaze.

He is a killer!

“That little punishment earlier was yours to bear,” he finally opened his mouth to explain.

He knew that this little kitten couldn’t wait to escape him but that was only her wishful thinking because he wouldn’t let her get away from h so easily.

“You still to shoulder your maids’, right?”

His eyes stared mockingly at her and a smirk danced on his face.

Skylar bit her lips and nodded begrudgingly.

She couldn’t go back on her words now. The ladies were innocent. It was she who had pestered them into telling her about Louis so it should be her cross to bear.

“Ye… Yes,” She replied determinedly.

“Good,” Louis patted her ass and it bounced against his warm hand.

His eyes darkened as his emotions arouse the instant his hand made contact with her butt. He didn’t like the effect she was having on him.

He likes to always be in control but he seems to be losing that since she arrived. Especially, since she stood naked before him.

Something was changing in him but he was unwilling.

He would never be enslaved!

“Get Lost!” He yelled.

Skylar was startled by his voice. She flinched and her legs moved subconsciously. She only realized that she ran when she found herself in the bathroom.Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.

She was panting heavily as she leaned in the door with her back supporting the door. She placed her hand on her chest as she heaved.

What a monster!

Skylar slowly dropped herself to the floor; still with her back against the door.

Why did her father send her to this hell?

What has she ever done to deserve this?

She sighed with dejection as she sat on the cold floor. She hid her head in between her lap.

She wanted to scream but her voice seemed to have left her along with everyone. She wanted to cry but her tears seemed to have dried up. She couldn’t do anything; so she just sat there and kept sighing.

“Don’t keep me waiting or it’ll intensify.”

Louis’s cold voice traveled to the bathroom. Skylar knew it wasn’t an empty threat. She understood perfectly what he meant.

Without further delay, she jumped up and rushed to take a bath. She didn’t even use the bath, she opted for the shower since that would be faster.

The devil was calling, who was she to keep him waiting?

Besides, he already warned her. And to be forewarned they say is to be forearmed.

She wiped herself dry and immediately jumped into the closet. Thank God she paid attention to Helen when showed her everything about the room, especially the connecting doors.

They seemed complicated at first because there were too many doors in the big room and she confused them for each other. She didn’t know which one led were but her confused mind still worked fine as it helped her locate the right door this time.

She picked a simple dress and dried her hair. She tied her hair into a ponytail and picked simple slippers. She dressed hurriedly and immediately jumped out.

However, she found the room empty as soon as she stepped out.

Gosh! She was late!
