The Unwanted Bride Of Atticus Fawn

The Unwanted Bride Of Atticus Fawn Chapter 14

~ATTICUS~

I don’t know what the hell I was thinking about agreeing to let Autumn stay the night with me. Every second with her felt like a ticking bomb, ready to explode. She was unpredictable when she was drunk. She said and did things that shocked me to the very core. And her f*****g scent was all over my jeep. I could smell her everywhere. Her scent should not be this strong. And now it would be stuck with me for a while.

Her brother didn’t sound happy that she was staying with me tonight, and I didn’t blame him, even I didn’t trust myself around her. Not when she asked me things like permission to touch my hair, and not when she leans into me, and f*****g smells me like I’m her next meal.

Drunk Autumn was dangerous. I’m happy that this is her first time; at least, I think that it is. I didn’t want any other man to experience what she was like when she was drunk.

“Atticus.” She whispers my name, and I pretend not to hear her. I do that because I’m actually terrified of myself right now. Terrified of what I would do if I looked into her eyes and she asked me for something else. I didn’t know if I would be strong enough to deny her.

I breathe a sigh of relief when I finally spot my house. Just a little bit again, and I would be able to place her in the guest room. Then her compelling voice and scent wouldn’t affect me anymore. I would be able to act rationally again.

As I drive into the garage, I jump out of the jeep and walk over to her side.

She looks drowsy, and it may not be long before she falls asleep.

The moment I open her door, her eyes open wide, and she smiles at me. Her smile is dazzling, and I wonder how I’ve never been lost in it before.

“Let’s get you inside,” I say as I inwardly scold myself for noticing things I shouldn’t.

“Okay!” She shouts as she wraps her arms around my neck and pushes her body against mine.

I grip her waist to steady her, and she uses that opportunity to wrap her legs around my waist.

Ah f**k. I wasn’t planning on holding her this way. She was too close like this. Way too close for my sanity.

“Autumn, “I growl as I try to put distance between us. She clamps her legs tighter around me, and I stop moving altogether. If she kept rubbing against me, she might awaken something that I didn’t want to f*****g deal with right now.

How am I supposed to walk into the house with her wrapped around me like this? I had to hope that everyone else was already asleep.
