Chapter 149: Two Bowls Of Ramen Noodles
(Arata)
Always the pessimistic block of ice. His eyes almost bulged out of his sockets when I called him–Alien from Neptune.
"What kind of name is that?" He asked, rather curiously.
"The one that suits that persona of yours," I pointed out, and he pushed himself forward, entering my personal space with ease.
"Didn’t find me so cold when I warmed you up the other night, Blue Rose." His gorgeous onyx eyes flashed with a challenge, and he let his gaze dip to my lips. "Or we can go home, and I can demonstrate again to refresh your memory."
I backed away a little, too close, he was too close for my treacherous body. It heated up just from his gaze and words.
I had no self-restraint left when it came to Karsten; if he initiated even a kiss, I would jump his skin, trying to claim all of him in my desperate attempts.
"No need," the uncertainty in my voice was so blatantly visible that Karsten offered me that rare smile of his and placed both my hands on his chest.
The heat-like liquid fire spread through my body, and my panties were going to be soaked soon if this man didn’t back away.
The black fire of his passion seemed to burn in his eyes as he slowly challenged.
"Liar! If I were to claim your lips right now, I can bet anything that you won’t push me away."
How this man understood me like the back of his hand. It infuriated me to no bounds.
My hands painfully itched to close against his shirt and pull himself onto me. To sate this burning that had begun between my legs.
It was already bad that I found him irresistible and now he kept seducing me.
How long before I would fall so badly for him that he would consume me fully, leaving nothing behind.
The knock on the window saved me from further embarrassment as Olphi had arrived with our Ramen. Since the glass was one-way, I was glad no one could see us.
Smirking, Karsten straightened up while saying.
"This conversation will continue once we get home."
Sighing, I let out a big puff of air, trying to calm myself and my rapidly beating heart.
Olphi handed Karsten the Ramen bowls laid out in elegant dishes with chopsticks. Opening the food tray in front of my seat, Karsten placed my bowl down on it. The intoxicating smell of the ramen with all its delicacies made my mouth water and stomach rumble.
"Can you manage? Or I can help you," Karsten offered, placing his bowl on the extendable tray. Picking up the napkins, he first spread one on my legs while repeating the process on his. fɾeeweɓnѳveɭ.com
"I will manage." My hands didn’t hurt much now. I knew it was because of medication because they were going to take a while to heal fully. Still, I didn’t want to be a burden and eat on my own.
Olphi stayed outside, standing guard as we ate the ramen. While I relished the noodles with boiled eggs, nori and scallions, I stole a glance at Karsten.
He was just staring at the dish, with chopsticks in hand as if contemplating eating or throwing it out of the window.
He had such a serious face as if stuck in a life-or-death situation.
Poor guy was suffering and he was suffering badly.
"Not a fan?" I asked with a hint of tease and slurped some of the spicy noodles.
"Poison, these noodles are poison for me." Like always, Karsten never held back or sugar-coated his words. He was doing this for me didn’t mean he had to guard his words.
"I thought you were a Naruto fan," I added, poking him with my right elbow on purpose.
"Doesn’t mean I approve of what he ate. The guy drank expired milk." Karsten scrunched his nose up in disgust and I felt genuinely sorry for him.
I wanted him to enjoy food with me but I didn’t know he hated Ramen noodles. If he had given me a hint I would have opted for something he actually enjoyed.
Another lesson was learnt, and some vital information was acquired.
"Just eat the egg, that’s healthy. I will take the rest," I sympathetically offered, patting his steel-forged shoulder.
His head roamed in my direction, the gratitude dripping from his eyes.
"Really? But, I promised."
I smiled, placing my chopsticks back.
"The purpose was to enjoy the food together and not make you miserable. We will try something else tomorrow, and you will tell me if you eat it or not beforehand."
He nodded quickly and grabbed the egg between his chopsticks. Bringing it closer, he began to nibble on it.
For a man so huge he took his time to savour the food he ate.
I finished my spicy bowl and water literally came out of my eyes because of how spicy it was.
But, damn! I loved every last drop of it. After downing mine, I grabbed Karsten’s and emptied that as well.
He silently watched, without passing any comment.
He was such a health and gym freak, and at the back of my mind, I had always believed that one day he would ask me to go to the gym or watch my calories.
Andy used to do that, asking me at times to hit the gym every once in a while. I guess he always hated my body.
But Karsten understood I was my own person. He had never once asked me to cut out on sugar or made any snide remarks about my body.
He had called me beautiful when he saw me naked and he always ensured I had my belly full.
What else could a girl want from a man?
"Enjoyed?" Karsten picked up a napkin seeing me finish the second bowl as well.
"More than you can imagine," I replied, seeming very content.
He leaned towards me, raising his hand and slowly wiped the last traces of the ramen broth from my lips. Taking his time as if enjoying the task immensely.
"Good, since I didn’t get dinner. I will be eating you tonight," he added as smoothly as was Karsten’s style.
And I opened my mouth but no sound came out.
