Married To My Bully by Sakshi C (rosie project TXT) 📖

"Headache?" I asked him. He looked up and studied my face for a second before nodding. 

"I can give you a head massage," I stood up and started walking towards him. 

"No need," he quipped in his tired voice and started rummaging through his cabinet for a headache pill. A cold shudder passed through my spine when he opened that drawer. I didn't stop. 

"I promise you'll forget your headache by the time I'll be done with you," I pushed. He gave me an incredulous look, making me realize what had I just said. I should have phrased the sentence a little more appropriately, given what had happened between us the last night. But I let it be. 

"No. I don't want you to touch me," he said in his strict tone. It would be a lie if I say his statement didn't hurt me but I had learned to school my feature.

I turned around as he popped in the pill, leaned his head against the headrest, and closed his eyes completely oblivious to my next step. 

I fetched a bottle of hair massage oil from the bathroom and carefully settled over the space next to him. I poured some oil into my palms and rubbed them together before applying light pressure to his scalp. Unsurprisingly, his eyes flew open at my unanticipated touch and he bolted up. 

"What the hell are you doing?" he spat while shooting daggers my way  

"Helping you," I shrugged and kneeled up

"Did I ask for your help?" I felt his anger rising. His every word was slicing through my heart but I didn't show it

"But I want to help," I poured in as much sincerity as I could. I wanted to help him in every possible way. Not in alleviating his headache but all kinds of pain that plagued his heart. 

"I don't need your fucking help. Now get the hell out of my bed," he snarled at me. 

"No. Either you'll let me help you or I am gonna sleep here tonight," I declared. I knew he would never agree to let me sleep with him in his bed. 

Now his eyes were shooting fires my way. I saw the way his nose flared just like his temper. 

" Get.The.Hell.Out. Of.Here," he enunciated each word darkly. My insistence had started to wear on him. I stood my spot but on the inside, I was trembling with fear. 

"I said No," I maintained

He jerked his face away from me and rake his fingers through his messy hair. One of his habits that I love. 

"Look, I don't want to fight with you right now. Just leave," he sighed and said

"Then don't fight. Let me help you," these words held more than one meaning. And they managed to have some impact on him as he connected his eyes with mine. This time there was no hostility in them but confusion. 

"Why?" genuine curiosity shimmered in his eyes as he scrutinized my face. His intense eyes were making me feel both nervous and confident at the same time. 

"Because you saved my life and I think this is the least I can do. I just want to return the favor," I responded not knowing what else to say.  

"Right," he scoffed as if I have disappointed him with my answer. I took his lack of aggression towards me as his consent. 

I positioned myself behind his back and lightly pressed my fingertips on his scalp before moving them in circular motions. His tensed muscles relaxed as I stroked his hair. A soft grunt echoed through the room, causing heat to rush my south and also telling me that he was having the whale of a time. God. Even his grunts and sighs were causing a tingling sensation to occur in the pit of my stomach. I gently massaged his scalp, trying my best to ignore his sexy grunts. 

Alex's eyelids began to droop halfway through the massage. I stopped and tucked my hands to my sides assuming he wants to sleep now. But Alex took me by surprise when he grabbed my hand and guided them back to his head.  

"Don't stop," he murmured with his eyes closed. A smile tugged on my lips. It's totally insane but I felt a sense of pride filling me when I saw him giving in to my touch. 

Alex slept like a log that day and that too without a nightmare. I wondered when was the last time he had slept so peacefully.
