chapter 7

Liam's POV

I am an experienced guy. I can't believe that I was so turned on just knowing Patricia was in the same house with me. I can feel her every movement in her room as I walk in the house. Why the hell did I give her a separate room? I should've insisted we share my bed. Ever since we had sex all I wanted to do was to have my ways with her. She was so responsive to my touches and she'd moan and scream my name without shame. I can sense that she was awake but I couldn't just barge into her room and fuck her. I had to calm myself and so I decided to cool down. I stripped and dive into the pool. I stroked my arousal trying to imagine her and suddenly she walked out the house not realizing I was in the pool. I looked at her as she peacefully enjoy the view.

"Enjoying the view?" I stated announcing my presence.

"Yeah." She looked around and saw me in the pool. "I didn't know you were there. Isn't the water cold?" She asked as I swam towards her direction.

"It's okay." I got out of the pool and she stared at my naked body.

"You should put some clothes on." She looked away shyly when I smiled at her.

"What are you doing up at this hour?" I asked moving next to her.

"I was..." She froze when I started massaging her shoulder.

"You were?" I whispered at her as I press my wet body on her back.

"Liam." She shivered as I kissed her neck.

"You smell so good." I stated huskily not being able to control myself. "I bet you'll taste even better."

"What?" She looked at me and I captured her lips immediately.

I wasn't planning to take my time or take things slowly. I wanted her so badly and I can sense that she wanted as badly. I let her turn around so she was facing me with out breaking our kiss. I lift her up and she instinctively wrap her  legs around my waist. Her arms around my neck. I walked and press her against the wall and started grinding my arousal at her thigh. She moaned while arching her body towards me. I had to take her. I tried to rip of her shirt off and I felt her flinch. It took all myself control to stop. She was in pain. What the hell is wrong with me!   

"I'm sorry. Did I hurt you?" 

"No, I think we should just try to slow down a bit." She replied panting.

"No. I'll take you back to your room." I carried her to her room and lay her on the bed. "You should rest."

"But..." She looked at my arousal and bit her lips seductively.

"Next time, love. I don't think you can handle it." I stated and left before I lose my common sense.

It was one of the most difficult things to do. I knew she was willing to do it but I couldn't really bare it that she would be in pain. I couldn't go slow or gentle with her. I would eventually lose control and would be rough on her. I lock myself up in my office and consume the blood bags I've kept. I needed to remind my self that she was human. A fragile little human that I shouldn't hurt. I was lost in my train of thoughts and didn't notice that she left. I panicked when I discovered she wasn't in the penthouse. It was already past seven. How the fuck did I not notice that she was gone. I had to find her. I was furious when I saw her coming out the elevator. 

"Where have you been?" I stated angrily.

"I went out for a run." She replied.

"You should have told me. I went over to your room and you were gone. What if something bad happened to you." I screamed at her as we walk back to the penthouse.

"Can you please stop yelling." She covered her ears and sat down at the couch. "Stop treating me as a kid."

"Patricia, look at me." I sat next to her. "You are not to leave my sight. Do you understand?"

"What?! I'm not your prisoner. I can do whatever I want." She yelled back.

"You can as long as I have my eyes on you. You're not leaving this place without me." I stated seriously.

"Oh, great. Now. I'm grounded. I'm not your kid. Why are you practicing you parenting skills on me."

"Then start acting like an adult." I stated pissed that she was now thinking of me as her father. "Don't just leave without saying where you're going. You almost just died and your acting irresponsibly."

"You're being irrational. I thought you were sleeping so I didn't want to disturb you. I need a run because you turned me on and left me in bed frustrated. And now I'm being childish. Look who's talking." She stood up and looked at me angrily. "And if you want to pretend to be the adult here and act like a responsible person maybe you should consider buying some food. I'm starving." She went to her room and slammed it really loudly before locking it.

I smiled at how childish she acted. I can't believe that she was as frustrated as I was with this mornings event. I find it quiet relaxing arguing with her. Our bickering is actually fun despite the fact that I get annoyed. I can feel that she was really trying to stay mad at me for the way I was treating her but she couldn't. I knew how to manipulate people and make them like me. I can charm her and she was really not difficult to please. Besides, I had Mikel telling me how to win her over.

"I have ways to make sure that people follow my orders." I warned her as she continue eating.

"Are you threatening me?" She looked at me in disbelief. "After all that I've been through, do you actually think I'm going to be scared."

"I never want you to feel scared. I want you to trust me. I would never so anything to put you in harm or hurt you." I admitted. "Your so young so I have to make sure that you don't do anything stupid."

"I'm 21 and I am technically an adult. Why are you treating me like your a thousand years older than me? Your basically, what twelve, thirteen years older than me. The age gap is not the huge. Stop looking at me as kid."

"If I'm seeing a kid when I look at you I wouldn't have the desire to fuck you every time I see you." I stated seriously. "Mikel would be here any minute. Excuse me." 

Patricia was so happy to see Mikel. I asked them to buy some food for the pantry last night and bring it over early this morning. Samuel, Oliver, Benjamin and I discussed business at the poolside while Mikel and Patricia watched TV. I kept glancing at the two as they were playfully hitting each other with pillows. 

"You are in so much trouble." Benjamin stated shaking his head.

"What?" I looked at him.

"You're in love with a human." He stated. 

"In love?" I looked at him in disbelief. "Attracted. Intrigued. Protective. Not in love. I'm not pathetic like Samuel."

"Me?" Samuel smiled at us. "At least I have the guts to admit my feelings. I don't pretend."

"I am not in love with Patricia. She's human and eventually she will die. I've been that route before and I have no intention of go through all the hurt again."

"Stage one Denial." Oliver chuckled. 

"You are all insane. I am not in love. My desire to be with her is none of your business."

"Really? Because she is headed this way." Samuel stated.

"Can I go back to my house?" She asked.

"No." I replied annoyed. "Why the hell would you like to go back there? I fucking gave you your own space and privacy."

"See? I told you his gonna freak out and won't even hear me out." Patricia stated. "Daddy, all I'm asking is permission to go back to my house so I can get some of my stuff."

"Don't call me that!" He glared at me. "If you want something just tell me what is it and I'll have somebody buy it for you. You should be resting." 

"But daddy..." She start stomping like a five year old.

"Stop being childish, Patricia." I stated trying not to laugh just like the others.

"I have some important things to get from the house." She stated seriously.

"I'll have Samuel get it. Just tell him what it is." I replied.

"I need to get my thongs and bikinis. They're in the top drawer of my cabinet. I also need my toys. It's under my bed red box." She stated. "My  dildos..."

"Patricia!" I yelled at her and they all kept quiet. "What the fuck! Stop making me angry."

"I can't help if it everything I say or do piss you off." She replied.

"I've been in your room and you have no such toys. What the fuck do you want to get back from your house? Everything is a wreck." I stated trying to calm down.

"It's something important." She replied sadly. "I don't have to tell you everything. I just wanted to ask your permission since I don't want you yelling at me like I'm a stupid kid like earlier. Mikel is coming with me and you can't stop me from going."

"Fine! I'm going with you." I replied. 

"Seriously? You're really impossible." She rolled her eyes at me.

"You can go anywhere as long as you are with me. I believe I already made that clear with you earlier. I do not like repeating myself, Patricia."

"Alright, fine. Daddy, whatever you say. I'll go change." She went back in her room with Mikel and they all looked at me meaningfully. 

"The last person who talked back to you that way was dead before he can finish to retaliate." Benjamin stated. "Damn, you're in deep shit."

"You guys would stop talking about us. My relationship with her in none of your fucking business. One more comment from any of you I'll have you thrown in a dungeon."

"I don't think you can do that. She'll look for us." Samuel stated.

"We're heading out." Oliver stated. "We'll leave you love birds alone." He left with Benjamin and Patricia walked out her room with a skimpy outfit.

"What the hell are you wearing?!" I looked at her from head to foot.

"Clothes." She twirled around showing off her sexy body. "Don't you like what you see?"

"I do but I don't like you wearing that kind of outfit in front of others."

"Your problem not mine." She swayed her hips as she started to walk towards the elevator.

I tried to calm myself. I can't lush out on her very move. I can't win her trust if she felt how strict I am. But this small little human knows how to push my buttons to annoy me. I can see how much she enjoys it when I get pissed. I had to control my temper and not get annoyed with her antics. It's really hard since I'm not really good at doing it. I always lose my temper. We drove to her house and she started crying when she saw the state of her house.

"I told you this isn't a good idea." Mikel stated. "There's no way you can get inside. The doorway is blocked."

"I have to get in there." She stated. "It's the only thing I have to remind me of my parents. I need to get it."

"What is it? Just tell me what is it and I'll get it back." I stated to calm her.

"I want get inside to check some things." She replied.

"It's not safe the house might collapse on you." I replied. "Patricia, can you please not argue with me about this. There is no way your getting back inside that house."

"I have to. You can come with me if you want. I need to collect some things."

"Fine. Lets go. Samuel you wait here with Mikel."

I knew if I didn't let her go in she'll still do it. It's better that I just accompany her. I can protect her better this way. We got inside the house and she was able to get a photo album of her parents and a necklace with a locket. She also got some clothes and her drawing equipments. Once we got all the things she needed she made another stupid request.

"Can we go to cemetery?" She stated I was driving. "I want to visit Scott's grave."

"He's dead. Why the hell do you have to see his grave?" I stated pissed.

"Because he is an important part of my life and I would like to pay respect to his grave." She responded.

"He's the reason you almost died why the fuck do you need to pay him respect. He's lucky his already dead if he isn't he'll regret putting you in harm every single day of his damn life." I stated.

"Baby girl, I think Liam got a point. Why would like to see his grave. It's not like he's gonna crawl out his grave to talk to you." Mikel butted in.

"I just want to see. I still can't believe his dead. I mean told me things that wouldn't make sense to any of you. And I also want to visit my parents grave."

"Fine. Let's go there tomorrow.  For now, you need to rest. The doctor said you shouldn't be exhausting yourself."

"Thanks." She smiled at me sweetly. "But can we stop by for some snacks before we go home."

"For a small girl your always hungry." Samuel butted in.

"I love food. I really enjoy eating. And I'm not a small or a little girl. I'm an adult. Only Mikel gets to call me baby girl." She stated. "You guys should start taking me seriously."

"How can we take you seriously when half the time we are together your acting like a little brat." I stated. "You're acting like a five year old girl. Making reckless decisions and actions."

"So you see me as a five year old kid." She stare at me."You said earlier that you wanted to fuck me every time you see me."

"I said you act like a kid. And I still want to fuck you every time I see you."
