My Personal Lycan King
Chapter-12 The accidental kiss

VICTORIA'S POV

"What? No obviously. I just thought that you wouldn't be interested in riding-" I wasn't even finished with my sentence when Alexander completed my words for me, "rides like these?"

"Well yeah. That." I awkwardly laughed, deep inside feeling thankful that I wasn't riding it alone or this would've made me feel bad the whole ride back home.

"Well now that I am here, you don't have to feel bad," Alexander said.

"Did I said that aloud?" I asked and his expression was telling me that I did, making me look another way in embarrassment.

"I don't ride, these things, but since it's you, I am riding it with, I thought of giving it a try. I heard people get mushy-mushy inside these when they are together." Alexander said winking while smiling at me with a knowing look.

I don't know if he was really saying those words in a double-meaning way, but I felt like he was hinting at something when he said that mushy-mushy word.

'and why the hell was he winking at me like this?' I thought in my mind.

"What do you mean by mushy-mushy?" I asked trying to sound ignorant and confident like I didn't understand a thing what he was talking about.

I always thought and was proud that I was a confident girl, but I don't know what happens to me when I am around him. It feels like, a different side of me pops up when he is around. The shy side of me. "Well you know, friendships grow, relationships turn better, things advance." He said smiling lopsidedly.

"No I don't know, why don't you enlighten me about it, Mr. Alexander," I asked leaning towards him, in an intimidating manner.

"You'll know when we'll be at the top," Alexander said leaning towards me mischievously before holding my hand in his hands.

"Hold my hands like this. It will keep your hands warm." He reasoned before looking outside towards the view of the carnival and I followed suit.

"It's really beautiful from up here, no?" I asked enjoying the view which was better than I had expected

"It is indeed very beautiful," Alexander said in agreement, smiling one of his dazzling smiles making my heart do summersaults.

And god forbid me, but if he keeps smiling at me like this with those dazzling eyes, I'll do something that surely will change our status from friendship to none.

"You know, we'll be stuck by boredom soon if we sit quietly like this. Why don't we talk about something, maybe get to know each other better?" Alexander suggested after a few seconds.

"What would you like to know about me? I think I told you pretty much everything. About the ones that got away, leaving me alone. About why I am here and all that stuff." I replied still looking in the distance at the pond that was now visible from the height, accompanied by the setting sun.

"Not about that. It is your circumstances. I want to know about you. The real you, that you hide behind that strong facade of yours." Alexander said.

His meaningful words making me look at him.

I looked into his eyes, which was looking soo deep at the moment as if wanting to suck me in. His orbs were turning a bit yellowish hazel, a beautiful color that was shimmering in the dim sunlight. "So will you tell me about you?"

"What bout me?" I asked absentmindedly, still lost deep in his eyes.

"About what you like."

"I like you," I replied absentmindedly.

"What?" Alexander asked his eyes widening at my words and only then did I realize what I have said just now.

"Among friends I like you, Daniel, and the whole group. You know my food preference already, anything with a chocolate milkshake. I am the type of girl who would rather go on a decent road trip with her loved ones than having a party." I said in a hurry to cover up for my previous words.

"That sounds good." Alexander smiled, though there was something about his expression that seemed off. Like he wanted or expected to hear something different from me.

"What about you?" I asked thinking it must be just me thinking too much into things.

"I don't know how to describe myself. People usually say that I am very impatient and get angry very quickly." Alexander said laughing awkwardly.

"What seriously? They must be blind to say something like that. Apart from that outburst at that party, I have not even once seen you getting angry or anything. According to my, you are one of the best guys I have met, you care about your loved ones and would do anything for them, and you are one of the sweetest men. " I said meaning every word.

"I didn't know, I had such a positive image in your mind," Alexander said widening his eyes, while looking at me with an emotion I wasn't quite able to define.

"I mean every word of it," I said while patting his cheeks.

It was only after, I placed my hands on his cheeks and felt the warmth of his skin touching mine did I realize what I was doing. I quickly removed my hands from his cheeks, before looking in the distance to hide my now, red turning cheeks. I was surely becoming bolder these days with him.

'Why don't you just agree that you like him. Even I love him soo much. You should reveal your feelings soon.' Carla suggested appearing out of blue.

'It has nothing to do with you, so stay quiet. I don't want to ruin my friendship with him. It's really hard to gain such a friend who doesn't judge you and throw pitiful looks after hearing about my conditions.' I said back.

'Then what do you really want right now? This ride will be over soon. Then you'll be back home, all alone, and will probably reminisce about why you didn't talk more or did anything.' Carla said rolling her eyes at me.

And I hate to admit it, but she was right.

'I just want the time to stop here for a few more minutes. I just want this ride to stop, so that we can spend some more time together.' I sighed back closing my eyes.

'Well, your wish is my command.' She said making me want to laugh at her attitude.

Before I could think about anything, I felt a warmth engulfing me, and then, the cabin jerked violently making me land on Alexander, and the Ferris wheel stopped.

"Hey, you okay?" Alexander asked hurriedly as he helped me get up from my awkward pose.

"Umm yeah, what happened?" I asked to no one in particular, soothing my hair a bit.

I saw Alexander taking out his phone before he dialed a number and talked to the person on the other side.

"Hmm yeah. I understand. It's okay. No, don't worry. Let him enjoy his moment." He said before ending the call.

"What happened?" I asked.

"Nothing serious. Apparently, someone had asked the person responsible for the Ferris wheel to stop the wheel for a few minutes because he wanted to propose to his girlfriend." Alexander said. "Wow! How romantic" I said while rubbing my arms up and down to ease the cold.

"Are you feeling cold?" Alexander asked.

"Just a bit. Maybe it's because of the height." I said, before hugging myself.

"Come here," Alexander said and without even waiting for my response, pulled me into his arms.

"Hey! What-" I was about to struggle when he opened the chain of his jacket before wrapping it around us.

"This way both of us will feel warm." He said smiling at me.

I wanted to refute more if it wasn't feeling soo good. His body was extremely warm and paired with his intoxicating seducing bodily scent, this position felt like a perfect place to sleep.

"So where were we?" He asked when I started to close my eyes, to enjoy his scent.

I turned a bit on his lap, to look up at him so that we can continue talking, however, as soon as I looked up, I regretted doing so.

With me wrapped in his arms, his lips were so close to me, that I would have to move just a few inches and we would be kissing.

As if sensing my gaze, he looked down at me, before smiling with a raised eyebrow. His hot breaths were fanning my face and it would be a total lie if I would say that it didn't tempt me to kiss the hell out of him.

However, thinking back to the friendship thing, I stopped myself, before sighing at my dilemma.

"We were talking about-" Before I could complete my words, the Ferris wheel jerked again, resulting in Alexander tightening his hands around me, and jerking forward, which ultimately resulted in him kissing the side of my lips.

My eyes immediately widened at the sensation I felt and this time he felt the same thing judging from his reaction. If I was saying that his touches were like pleasurable electric shocks earlier, then those were nothing compared to what I felt just now.

Even if the peck was just on the corner of my lips, it felt soo much appealing and alluring that for a moment I was convinced to kiss him back and feel this feeling wholly.☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
