IN THE CAGE

48. A MISTAKE

...FAWN...

...----------------...

Washing my face and brushing my teeth is what I do in Miss Margot's bathroom. I was planning on going to bed after this because the food I was eating started to make me sleepy. 

Thanks to Ace-I finally won't sleep while holding back the hunger. Men are good sometimes, and it's confusing. I wouldn't complain if he was nice all day, but his mood swings were weird. I don't know how his brain works, like he can be a psychopath in the blink of an eye and a food-carrying angel in a blink as well.

I'll never get used to it.

"Okee's.." I finished washing my face and stared at the reflection of my face in the mirror. I forced a wide smile to bloom on my face. I've been doing this a lot lately, forcing myself to stay cheerful even though this place is starting to drive me crazy.

The only thing I have now is my sanity, if I despair and wail in depression, I will rot here. I need to believe that I have a chance to be free. That I'm okay.

Everything will go well.

I believe in myself while patting my cheeks hard. Hoping that the blow on my cheek would make the message embedded in my flesh-my brain.

After finishing the bathroom business, I went out and saw Miss Margot's room still glowing bright white. I was about to change the color back to pink before Miss Margot came back, but my attention ignored the light of the lights - something caught my attention.

Somebody-precisely.

"You're still here?" my many.

I sauntered slowly, eyes on the bastard Ace leaning on the head of Miss Margot's bed. His hands were tinkering with HP.

At that time, the black suit that Ace wore was no longer attached to his body. The suit was on the shoulder of the sofa, abandoned by its master. Ace now only wears a black-arm shirt on the roll up to the elbow, and pants that are in matching color with his shirt. Ace's hair was still tidy with a few long strands falling near his cheeks.

He looks like a male model in a parfume magazine. If only he wasn't a rich bastard, he could be a model.

"I'm bored in my room." Ace chimed in on me without looking up from his HP screen.

By the way, the smell of the food that was bursting in this room is gone. Replaced by the fragrant aroma of lemon from the room freshener.

"If you're bored, you should go out." I found no place to entertain in this room. Miss Margot's room was as boring as Ace's.

"You kicked me out?" Ace this time looked up. His pair of dark eyes glared at me with a mysteriousness that only he and God knew what the sharp glare meant.

"I didn't throw you out..." I turned my gaze in the other direction and looked for a remote. This room is too bright, damn it. Seeing Ace's face made my heart beat fast. I might be scared.

Huuuuh, calm my heart. He'll hear your commotion!

While Ace did not chim in on me at all, I changed the color of the room to a pink one. My hand shook like a fool, pressing the button on the remote with panic until the pink color came.

For the first time - the pink light made me breathe a sigh of relief. At least-I don't need to see Ace clearly. Ahahahaha!

That guy scares me.

"What are you doing?" Ace voices. The calmness in her voice made me unable to read her mood.

"I returned the light as it was."

Ace's HP light dimmed instantly, making it a bit difficult to catch his expression. He stood up, waltzing on a fur carpet with shoes that made his height increase by 5 inches. His steps are directed towards me.

"Are you so comfortable in this dark room?" Ace's voice greeted me quite clearly from the previous one. Perhaps due to the dim lighting, my sense of hearing became more sensitive than my eyes.

Shit, my heart's back on fire.

"It doesn't mean I'm at home, I'm just doing this before Miss Margot comes back." After all, this was his room. I don't want Miss Margot to think I'm tampering with her room. The woman-even if she looks crazy, has a sharp instinct. I don't want him to misunderstand.

"You are very understanding" said Ace again. He stood in front of me, looking down near my face. His pair of black netra reflected a faint pink light that fell on his face. "I don't remember you ever being this understanding of me."

This topic again?

"I told you and Miss Margot are different. I don't like you. Miss Margot - even though she's kind of awful - I don't have a problem with her."

"I don't like you" I whispered. The nervousness spread all over my body - the influence of the tip of his fingers that left a trail of fire on my skin. I can't remember the last time Ace looked at me this seintens. He scanned me with a pair of longing eyes - and I was afraid I was looking at him the same way.

His face and the pink light spilling over there were very unsupportive at all. My heart will explode.

"I want to kiss you," her voice was low in flirting, like a demonic whisper to air.

"Huh, why all of a sudden?" I made a joke, suppressing my panic with obvious pretense.

"You can reject me and say no..." Ace whispered at my nape, dropping the heat of his breath there before sniffing me deeply like his last oxygen. "I won't force you." she said back before pulling her eyes up at me.

"You may reject me, and I will return to do what I did before."

"..."

If the chance to reject Ace is any-of course I'll turn him down. He is a forced man who always does what he wants without consideration to my condition. I always hated it, my determination was to plant it six feet deep in the ground. I-if given the opportunity to refuse his behavior all this time and now, I will definitely refuse him.

"How's Fawn?" Ace fused his forehead on my forehead, eyes one adrift.

"This is a mistake..." I greeted her with a breath. This situation suffocated me, even when he did nothing, I felt like my heart was gripped firmly by an invisible hand. The strong murmur in my chest was stirring.

What has he done to me...?

"This is a mistake..," my remark repeated and I did not deny it at all.., when I pulled Ace's collar strongly towards me, I had already made a mistake.

Ace was wide in shock, but it didn't last long. A grin spread across his lips before he dined me in the same enthusiasm.

What I'm thinking right now, I don't know. But I felt those lips on my lips. Sweeping me with a thirst for touch that burns me in a pleasant feeling of guilt.

It was a mistake, for God's sake. But like Eve who succumbed to the temptations of the devil, I devoured the error with greed.

Ace's hand on my nape, messing with my hair on the sidelines of his fingers pressing me deeper in his pagutan. The pink room was dark in my eyes, I saw nothing but feel how the heat of Ace's body was docked in my chest. Pulling me in his arms while our beads greet each other savagely.

How did we get to this situation? I was wondering when our pagutan got separated. A salivary bundle fell on my chin and my eyes met Ace's eyes glittering in humor. 

What have I done? I wondered but could not find the answer.

In the next second, all I knew was that Ace was back harboring a deep kiss on my lips. Pulling me in his arms, pushing my steps with his body I didn't realize dropped me on the bed. He was on top of me, slipping my forehead thinly before creeping his kiss on my chin. The heat of her breath, the coldness of her fingertips made my stomach wrapped around in a foreign sensation that made me almost explode.

I moaned stifledly. Groaned his name, and it made him get up and look back at me in the face.

"Do that again." he said.

"Huh?"

"Call my name again..." Thin smiles played on his face, making me confused but could not help but reject him.

"Aces?"

A satisfied smile bloomed on his face. Beautifying a face that should frighten me, but instead of giving me creeps of fear, it provoked a smile on my face.

Something's wrong with me, it's not me. Maybe I'm dreaming right now, because for God's sake, I can't possibly do this with the Ace-Ace of everyone. I-i---

"Mmmm..." I closed my eyes tightly, holding back the tingly sensation that was creeping on my skin was strong. Ace's trail of lips combined with a puff and bite made me squirm sultry and restless.

"Ace..," I grabbed her arm that was still wrapped in a shirt, stuck my whole fingers in there while she was doing something in my body that was driving me crazy.

My eyes were twitching in a pleasure I should not have felt. All of this was a mistake, but the reaction I created in my body was what I wanted right now.

I want more-and this thought is scary.

Fawn, what are you thinking?
