Anna blushed to her ears and stammered, âYou...â
âWhat did I do to you?â Wayne asked again as he walked to her leisurely and gazed at her. âI donât mind if you want to demonstrate it for me.â
In fluster, Anna kept retreating and her calf hit the sofa. Then she lost her balance and fell backward. Subconsciously, she grabbed the nearest thing in front of her.
The next moment, she realized that she was grabbing Wayneâs collar.
When she was about to push him away, the thunder suddenly boomed outside and a bolt of lightning crackled through the sky.
âBoom!â
Then the room suddenly became dark. Being frightened, Anna screamed and immediately held Wayne tightly, shivering. Soon, the guestsâ noises came from outside the room.
âWhat happened?â
âIs it a power failure?â
âLadies and gentlemen, donât be afraid. Go back to your rooms and wait for a moment, please. The circuit breaker tripped and it will be repaired soon,â the receptionist said in a soothing voice.
For a moment, the whole hotel was in chaos except for Annaâs room. It was so quiet in the room that Anna could even hear Wayneâs breath. Holding her in his arms, Wayne could smell the pleasant scent of her perfume.
The two of them were so close to each other that their hearts were beating faster. Gradually, their breaths became quicker and quicker.
In the darkness, Anna couldnât help but recall the scene of them kissing before. Her mind was in a mess and she even forgot to push him away.
âYou havenât told me what I did to you that night,â Wayne suddenly said in a low and hoarse voice âWhat?â Anna asked in a daze. âI was more restrained that night than I am now,â Wayne whispered in her ear. âEmm.. âBefore Anna could figure out what he meant, she was kissed by Wayne.
Wayneâs kiss was gentle. At first, he just kissed her lips. Later, his kiss fell on her chin, her neck, and then her shoulder He rubbed her lips with his, swept across her chin, neck, and shoulder.
Annaâs shirt was almost taken off. But when the cold wind blew into the room, she didnât feel cold but felt hot all over. She was sober, but somehow she lost control of herself as if she was drunk The moment Wayne reached out his hand into her skirt, the light in the room flickered. After a few sizzles, the light was on and the room became bright again.
At the same time, Anna come to her senses and pushed him away at once. After staring blankly at him for a few seconds, she ran to the bathroom in a hurry and locked the door.
Wayne, who was pushed, fell backward and sat down on the sofa. Then he looked up at the light unhappily as if blaming it.
He looked in the direction of the bathroom and thought of what had just happened, with a hint of suspicion in his eyes.
Once again, he was sure that Anna didnât resist the physical contact with him and they were harmonious in s*x.
In the bathroom, Anna opened the tap and washed her face with the cold water. After a while, she finally calmed herself down.
Oh, my God. What did I do just now? Was I out of my mind? I almost slept with him again! At this time, there was a knock on the room door.
âSir, there was something wrong with the circuit just now. We apologize for any inconvenience caused during this period. To express our apology, the proprietress of our hotel cooked gumbo for every guest as a midnight snack. You may go downstairs and have some,â the receptionist said.
âOkay. Thank you,â Wayne said.
Hearing their conversation, Anna looked at the bathroom door in a daze. Sure enough, Wayne knocked on the bathroom door after a few seconds.
âJust now...â
âI heard it,â Anna hurriedly interrupted him. âYou can go downstairs first. Iâll be there soon.â
Then she seemed to hear Wayne chuckle but she didnât know if it was just her illusion.
It was not until ten minutes later that she finally plucked up the courage to open the bathroom door and walk out.
By that time, Wayne had gone downstairs and was not in the room. Anna then made the bed and put a pillow and a quilt on the sofa.
It was raining heavily outside and she couldnât find another place to stay. Therefore, she had to make do with it and share a room with Wayne tonight.
It was lively downstairs and the guests were playing games in groups. Some were playing Werewolves of Millerâs Hollow. Some were playing cards, and some were playing guitar and singing Different from others, Wayne was sitting in the corner and reading a financial newspaper. With a gel pen in his hand, he wrote on the newspaper from time to time.
Taking a deep breath, Anna sat down opposite him and pretended to be relaxed as if nothing had happened just now. Then she said, âAre you reading financial newspapers? Itâs rare for you to have such leisure time Why donât you have fun with others?â
Wayne raised his head and said, âDo you think Iâm a workaholic who never enjoys entertainment?
âHave you ever attended any entertainments?â Anna asked in reply with doubt in her eyes, Wayne then put down the newspaper on the table and slowly pushed it towards her. âMy entertainment is different from yours and it requires wisdom.â
A column in the newspaper was Sudoku and he had finished it. Hearing his words, Anna twitched her mouth and was speechless.
âItâs just a puzzle game and is not more high-end than other games. Besides, playing cards and Werewolves of Millerâs Hollow also require wisdom,â she said.
In her opinion, there were no ranks among the games, Wayne gave her a disapproving glance and said, âI donât think so. Letâs take playing cards as an example. As long as one gets his cards, he can guess what cards the other players have. I donât think this kind of game takes much brain.â
âReally?â Anna asked with doubt. âIâve heard that some people can remember the cards that other players have played, but Iâve never heard of anyone that can guess the cards in the other playersâ hands when he gets his cards. Itâs impossible.â
How is it possible that one can guess the other playersâ cards before the game begins?
âI didnât force you to believe me,â Wayne said and raised his eyebrows, indicating that he could make it Seeing his complacent look, Anna was speechless.
When she looked around idly, she found that the two girls at the next table had been peeking at Wayne, and then her eyes brightened.
âDo you want to play cards?â she asked the girls. The two girls were flattered, blushing and nodding happily.
Anna glanced at Wayne and said, âFacts speak louder than words. Prove it to me, Mr. Wright. I want to see how you guess the cards.â
Wayne didnât refuse.
Soon, the two tables were put together and the girls quickly got a pack of cards from the front desk.
Before they started the card game, they drew for partners. And the result showed that Anna and Wayne were opponents.
When the cards were dealt, Anna looked at her cards and almost burst into laughter. As long as she could play a card that she didnât want first, she would definitely win.
