Mr Dark Desires. Possessives

Manipulation (3)

After last night's incident, Ayana and Carlos' relationship improved. It turns out that it takes an extreme reaction to deal with a situation like last night.

This morning, Ayana woke up feeling Carlos' hand caress her back and kiss her forehead and even though the sun had shone so brightly from the bedroom window, Ayana was still so reluctant to leave her bed.

Last night's events and what he had to deal with were really draining his emotions physically and mentally. Ayana even felt she could sleep all day until the next morning.

"Wake up." said Carlos gently, stroking Hailee's black hair and looking shiny in the afternoon sun. "You missed your breakfast."

Ayana stretches her body, but refuses to open her eyes, she extends her hand and hugs Carlos, leaving the man shocked, but also happy with the gesture Ayana gave him.

Instinctively, Carlos hugged Ayana back and kissed her forehead.

"Aren't you hungry this morning not eating anything?" Carlos just remembered that Ayana did not eat too much at dinner last night.

"Not hungry." said Ayana half sleepy. "Is the ship already running?" his question received a warm laugh from Carlos.

"Of course it is. We are in the middle of the ocean now" Carlos said in a cheerful voice.

This was the first time for Ayana to board a cruise ship, at first she thought that she would feel seasickness because of being tossed in the ocean, but it turned out that this ship was so stable, but it was very stable, even Ayana did not feel any intoxicating movements at all.

Although the capacity of this cruise ship can accommodate up to two hundred people, but it seems only half of the capacity of the ship is filled, so many places look empty.

"Wake up and accompany me to lunch." persuaded Carlos while peeking at Ayana's shoulder.

Like the night before, the two of them did nothing but sleep together. This is actually quite surprising for Carlos, because it turns out he can only really sleep without doing anything with the opposite sex and this incident has happened not once.

Ayana then wriggled under Carlos embrace before she opened her eyes and yawned.

"Hang?" ask her with a hoarse voice.

"Wake up and accompany me to eat" Carlos repeated his words again and Ayana saw the man had prepared and was so tidy, it seemed that he had woken up once in the morning.

However, somehow Ayana felt very tired and just wanted to sleep.

Then lazily, he rolled his body under the blanket and closed his eyes again.

"Ayana, no, you have to get up," Carlos grumbled as he tried to pull the blanket from Ayana's body and ignored the girl's protest.

"Hoam.." Ayana yawned again and leaned her body against the back of the chair. He stirred the food in front of him with no taste.

"You've been sleeping all night and morning, but why do you look like someone who hasn't slept in a whole week?" Carlos looked at Ayana with curious eyes, worried that this girl was sick.

"I don't know, it's so sleepy" said Ayana, apparently unable to keep her eyes open for longer.

In the end, Carlos manages to bring Ayana lunch at the restaurant on the deck of the ship, but this girl doesn't seem to enjoy it very much. This was not his first snack and his face looked slightly pale.

Initially, Carlos thought that Ayana was just sleepy and after finishing the bath, she would feel fresher, but it turned out that her drowsiness did not disappear at all.

Carlos then shook his head and said in a stern tone. "You can go back to your room after you finish your meal." She did not want Ayana to get sick and reminded herself to call a doctor to check if the girl's condition did not improve as well.

"But, I have no taste.." Ayana felt nauseous eating the smoked meat presented in front of her, even though she was not a picky in food matters. However, why did he feel that he did not want to eat anything today.

All the food that went into his mouth felt like sand.

"Do you want to eat something else?" ask Carlos.

"Can I eat later?" ayana asked, looking at Carlos with a glare. "I really feel bad." he said weakly.

Carlos was silent for a moment and stared at the circular watch on his wrist. He only had ten minutes before the next meeting began, at first Carlos would take Ayana with him, just looking at Ayana's current condition, it seemed impossible to happen.

"You want to go back to the room?" carlos asked to make sure and saw Ayana nodding at him. "Alright, Sam will take you to the room because I have a meeting next, so I can't accompany."

"It's okay, I can do it myself." Ayana hurriedly shook her hand, rejecting Carlos' idea. He doesn't want to be alone with Sam after what happened to Abby.

Although, it seems that Sam has returned as usual and behaved as if nothing had happened, but so many people are wearing masks like that to hide their true feelings. Including Ayana.

Therefore, Ayana can not be sure, whether Sam really does not care about Abby, or he just pretended.

"No, I won't let you go back alone" said Carlos, insisting Ayana go with one of her confidants.

"Come, Ayana, I'll take you to the room" Sam took a step closer to Ayana and waited for the girl to stand up.

Seeing that the situation was inevitable again like this, Ayana finally relented and got up from her seat.

"If you need anything, there will be someone standing outside your room" Carlos stood up and showed two other men who will follow Ayana back to the room.

Of course this fact made Ayana feel a little relieved. At least he won't be alone with Sam.

"Alright," Ayana replied, she then stood on her tiptoes and kissed Carlos' lips for a moment and made the man's smile seem more charming than the blue sky above them. "I'm leaving now and I don't need to call the doctor, I think I just need to rest."

"I don't promise" replied Carlos. He then releases Ayana to leave with Sam and the other two men, returning to their room.

Along the passageway they passed, Sam walked beside Ayana without saying anything. Therefore, Ayana took the initiative to raise her voice.

"I'm sorry for what happened to Abby" Ayana said, starting the conversation.

"That's not necessary, because Carlos will feel the same way" Sam replied.
