Chapter 19.
I close my bedroom door as silently as I can behind me. Then I turn and run into a wall of male chest. This is all too familiar. I catch myself on his shoulders and take two swift steps backward. Shuddering from just the mere touch. I look up and Jaxx is standing beside my door in the darkened hallway.
âWhy are you skulking outside my door?â I ask in a harsh whisper. I guess I still harbor some anger and resentment toward him. But who could blame me? There are guys that are players. But he took his game to the ultimate level. I donât forgive nor do I forget very easily at all.
âI couldnât sleep, my lady.â He bows his head in acknowledgement to me.
âThat still doesnât answer the question as to why you are skulking outside of my door in the dead of night.â I ask once more.
âI have these thoughts and feelings regarding you that I cannot explain or will away. I was hoping to speak to you about them. But I was afraid of waking you or your Reaper by knocking.â
I am just about to respond when Tristan responds before I can. I didnât even hear or notice him opening the bedroom door behind me.
âYou have woken âher Reaperâ so speak your piece.â Tristanâs growly voice sends all sorts of yummy tingles throughout me.
At the appearance of Tristan Jaxx backs up a good five to six feet from me. I turn to look at Tristan when I see the bewildered look on Jaxxâs face.
The damn Reaper is standing in the doorway. No posing is more like it. Fully exposed from the chest up. His very IMPRESSIVE chest is⦠well impressive. As if waiting for someone to lick the tattoos running from the top of his shoulders then downward disappearing inside his pajama pants. Now that is an intriguing idea. I almost laugh out loud at his male posturing. But it slightly annoys me as well. The visages of the nightmare are still strong in my mind. I am worried about my uncle. I need to speak to Sebastian. We need to plan⦠Because I am more determined than ever to take that horrid fucking Demon Lord out.
âTristan.â I say warningly.
Shameless man just smirks at me. But then he reads the pain in my eyes and his whole demeanor changes.
âWhat is wrong, angel?â He embraces me from behind as is his habit. Nuzzling my neck. But before I can even begin why I am out of bed at this time of night. Or tell him about the newest nightmare. Or vision⦠Jaxx decides to throw a temper tantrum.
âI demand to know where your Fated Mate is, my lady. Surely he doesnât condone you consorting as such with this Reaper.â He fairly spits the last words as if it leaves a foul taste within his mouth.
I feel Tristan stiffen. But I turn my head and gently kiss him with a brush of my lips. Calming him for the moment.
