He was the man of any girl's dreams. With smooth flawless skin like that of marble, he looked like Adonis.

Adrianna shockingly gazed at him. She knitted her brows. What was he doing here? ​​

Dmitri smiled while making breakfast, and without turning, he said, "Good morning Adrianna." He flipped the egg in the frying pan, and turned to find her wrapped a white towel.

"You are tempting me in that outfit of yours," he said, pointing at her towel. "It seems you really are attracted to me."

Adrianna became angry as her face flushed red. She crossed her chest with her arms, and ran back inside, inviting Dmitri's throaty laughter.

When she went back to her bedroom, she saw Dmitri's shirt lying on her bed. Feeling embarrassed, she had to ask him about yesterday. She remembered Niiya passing out after having wine, but after that, she had a faint memory. She decided never to have wine in the future.

She put on denim shorts, a white shirt, and went outside to confront him.

When she got out, breakfast was already ready and laid out on the table. She sat down in the chair near Dmitri. "Thank you for breakfast."

Dmitri nodded with a smile as he pointed with his chin to indicate that she should eat it.

Adrianna's anger had subsided a little. She asked, "Did you sleep in my bedroom yesterday?"

Dmitri nodded again. This time he looked very somber.

"Did something happen between us?" she prodded, scared that he had taken advantage of her in her drunken state.

"What do you think could happen between us Adrianna?" he asked, eating a mouthful of hash browns.

Adrianna blushed and said, "Your shirt is lying on my bed. What can I expect?"

Dmitri stopped eating, looked at her, and said, "Look at you, going all red."

"Tell me!" she shouted.

"Nothing happened, okay?" he answered with a smirk.

"Dmitri, you are with Keisha. I am sorry but I don't want to be labeled as the third wheel in a relationship," she said with a gloomy expression. "I hope she doesn't misunderstand…"

"Plus how dare you sleep in the same bed as me!" she roared at him after pausing a little.

"Keisha and Nate left the restaurant after Okashi took Niiya back home. I had to bring you here. After I had put you to bed, I wanted to go away, but I couldn't. There was an electric force right outside your house, which won't let anyone enter or leave the premises, so I had to stay back," said Dmitri.

He wasn't ashamed that he had lied about the fact that he wanted to go, but he wasn't lying about the electric field that had been generated around the house.

Adrianna looked at him and said, "What a liar! We don't have any electric field around the house!"

Dmitri chortled as he continued eating his breakfast. He shrugged. "It's okay if you don't want to believe me, but then why do you think I stayed?"

His question made her blush further as she stared into his black eyes, making her feel as if she could immerse herself in the depths of his eyes. Her wolf growled again, prodding her to take that man down then and there, but she couldn't show her emotions on the outside. It was agonizing to be in front of him. Why wasn't he wearing his shirt?

She disengaged the war of gazes and focused on the food in front of her. Angrily, she dug the fork into the eggs and ate them. Her protective shield around her heart was up again. She couldn't let him see her inner feelings.

"You are impossible Dmitri Volkov!" she replied, irritated. "Please go and wear your shirt!"

Dmitri laughed again. He was having fun teasing her. He remembered what she had said last night – about going to her father's place.

"What are your plans for the weekend Adrianna?" he asked, not revealing that he already knew.

"I will be visiting my father's place," she answered with a sad expression.

"I can drop you off there. If you'd like," he offered.

"No, thanks. I can get there myself. I have my motorbike," she declined his offer.

Dmitri pursed his lips. He really wanted to spend the day with her in one way or the other, but she was trying to slip away. Dejected, he lowered his head and said, "Okay…"
