The Boy Behind The Red Door Chapter 28
Lesley is debating within herself what to do in her situation. Amanda has controlled her long enough. She should start deciding for herself, but she will hurt Patrick in the process. It pains her to do that. And is her feelings towards Bangs worth fighting for? She has so many doubts. And then she thought, what if they never see each other again like what Jacoben said? She took a deep breath and rubbed her chest while lying on her bed. The thought of losing Bangs made her heart feel like it would stop beating at any moment. Their situation is difficult and complicated. She still has a lot of things she doesn’t know about his real identity, and there are so many obstacles between them. They have to fight an entire organization that knows no mercy. Shane and Victor Nobles are strong and fearsome opponents. She shivers whenever she thinks of Jacoben’s story about Victor Nobles and MNA's history. But when she thinks of the bad things those people can do to the man she loves, her feeli

The car drove fast until they reached what seemed like a huge garden with a beautiful house at the center. Mrs. Dapit parked the car, and then they got off. She couldn't help but scan with her eyes the beauty of the garden they were walking through. There were many flowers and plants that she had never seen before planted in every corner. Her mouth widely opened in astonishment at the fountain in the middle. And the building at the center that she thought was a house was actually the restaurant. She observed the European-themed infrastructure in amazement. "Welcome to Luxies Plate!" a man in a tuxedo greeted them as they approached the entrance. Mrs. Dapit walked past the man snobbishly while she smiled back at him. Her eyes widened even more as they entered and saw the elegant chairs and tables. When she looked up, she saw lavishly decorated chandeliers hanging at the ceiling. Everyone inside has dressed formally and beautifully, both the customers and the waiters. She suddenly fe

Lesley had just finished eating with Kali at Luxies Plate. She decided to go back to the hospital and wait for her shift to start. It doesn’t matter if there are still a couple of hours left. Sitting in the lobby is much more bearable than waiting at home.She checked her cellphone and saw dozens of missed calls and texts from Patrick. She was no longer surprised. She knew his habits, and he would not give up immediately. She sighed as she put her phone back in her bag. She needs to avoid him for now.She glanced at her wallet and smiled when she saw that she had enough money to stay at a hotel for a few days. For what it's worth, MNA pays its employees well. Fortunately, she just got her paycheck and saved a lot of money for herself.She first took a walk around MNA to kill time and boredom. The hospital did not fail to entertain her. Aside from the spacious parking lot, it has well-kept gardens that fill her eyes. She also noticed that other establishments were very far away. There

Lesley intensely stares at Jacoben's back while she follows him to his office. She remembers the day her mother commanded her to apply for a job at MNA. Amanda was talking on the phone that day to a person who apparently gave her a recommendation so she would have a higher chance of being accepted into this hospital. Jacoben was probably the friend Amanda was referring to because she remembered how he had just casually hired her. He did not even read her resume. She has a strong feeling that it is no accident that she and that man posing as a security guard are working here. She sighed. This is not the right time to be thinking about that. She slightly shook her head to put aside her doubts and concerns. She has to focus on their plan for now. After they are done with the mission, she will ask those questions to Jacoben. Hopefully, he will give her an honest answer. When they arrived at the office, Jacoben dialed his secretary to cancel all his appointments for today. And then he

Jacoben withdrew his hands from her shoulders and shrugged. “It's okay. You can go home. We can go on with our Plan B. Even though that is nearly impossible, we have to try without you," he said as if making her feel guilty. "Warn your family and hide until this is over. I told you that I won't force you, so I—" "I will do it!" She exhaled sharply and then raised her forehead. Her gaze challenged Jacoben's. "I was caught off guard. This was so sudden, so I got nervous, but I was not running away to hide. I told you, I already made up my mind. I'll save Bangs and everyone trapped in here… No matter what happens." Jacoben was speechless for a moment. He stared at her face, and then a small smile formed on his thin lips as if he was proud of something. “Are you sure you won't regret this?" he asked. "Aren't we leaving yet? I can't wait to get out of here," she said confidently. “And bring MNA down." Jacoben chuckled and looked at her with amazement. "I can't wait too." “Then le

"Shoot these vermins and feed their bodies to my pets."Lesley closed her eyes tightly to wait for a bullet to hit her, but a few seconds passed, and she had not heard a single gunshot. She felt someone grab her arms and pull her up. She opened her eyes and saw it was Jacoben who was helping her stand.Confused, she looked back and forth at Jacoben, Shane, and the four armed men."Why are you letting them stand?!” Shane's brows wrinkled as she pointed at them. “What are you doing?! Are you deaf?! I said shoot them!" Jacoben shook as he stood up straight and slightly raised his forehead."Don't waste your energy. They're not going to do it."Irritated, Shane stepped closer to her men and glared at them as if she would swallow them up if they would not follow. "Shoot them! Now! Shoot them, idiots!" Shane screamed, but the men pointed their guns at her instead. Shocked at what the four did, her eyes widened in disbelief while her jaw dropped. She quickly backed away a few steps. "W

They ran to the exit as fast as they could. They slowed down as they turned into a hallway. They passed several men lying on the floor. Her eyes widened as she looked at them."Don't worry. They're just sleeping," the red-haired man said as he matched her speed. "I’m Rio, by the way.” His eyes were gleaming as he stared at her. It made her a bit uncomfortable. It was as if he was flirting with her. Suddenly, Rio almost stumbled when Leo intentionally bumped him, speeding up and ahead of them. Rio shook and then looked at her again."I'm sorry. He has issues with pretty girls."Her lips parted slightly. She does not know how to answer him. She wanted to smile, but her lips formed an awkward shape instead."There!" Jacoben shouted, shifting their attention to him.They just exited the building. She turned in the direction Jacoben had pointed. Two black cars were waiting for them in the parking lot. They ran towards it and then a man got out of one of the cars and met them. It was the m

Lesley is lost in her thoughts as she watches the fire dance in front of her. She stares at the burning wood while thinking about what they went through today. After escaping Shane's men, they hid in the forest and ran until the sky became dark. She hugs herself and sits on a rock wide enough to support her. She savors the warmth the fire gives as Dan continues to add more dried branches to the bonfire they had lit before sunset. Lesley patted the scrapes on her arms. She got it earlier when she jumped from the car. She had no deep wounds or broken bones, but the scratches on her skin were stinging. She glances at Bangs, who is still sound asleep next to her. She wonders what kind of sleeping pill or tranquilizer they used on him. He did not wake up or flinched even after they jumped from the car. Fortunately, Bangs had only a tiny wound on his left leg because she hugged him as they rolled on the rocky ground. "Does it hurt?" Dan asked, noticing her occasional look at her wounds

Lesley can hear her heart beating loudly inside her chest. Her palms clenched in nervousness as they stared into each other's eyes."I… I got very angry with you, and I was bitter… But I still love you..."She saw his face getting redder. She could feel herself slowly being swallowed by his gaze that seemed to penetrate deep inside her."How about the things you said before I left?" he asked in his low and deep voice. "Do you want me?"She slightly raised his eyebrows at this and pursed her lips."What do you mean?" she asked nervously.The atmosphere is getting hotter. She knew what he was talking about. But it was too embarrassing to admit now without the alcohol in her system."You remember it, right? Everything you said... and what we almost did here in your room," He brought his face closer to hers. "Lesley, tell me honestly... Do you want me inside you?"Lesley can hear the loud beating inside her chest as if she will have a heart attack at any moment. Only one person has the ab

"Why are we here on my bed? There's a table," Lesley calmly asked Kieran, who was comfortably eating on top of her bed, positioning himself in the middle while she was at the end as if she was the guest and he owned the space."Because eating is better when done in bed," he answered with a meaningful smile.Lesley understood the double meaning in his statement. She stared at his face flatly, initially wanting to refute him, but she decided just to ignore him. "Besides, this is where we used to eat. It's more comfortable. I promise I won't make a mess," Kieran added.She sighed. She agreed to talk to him tonight about their relationship, especially those things she said and acted when she was drunk.But is this the right decision, biting Kieran’s bait and letting him into her room?She stared at the tray of food resting on her lap for a few seconds and then at Kieran's food. She frowned, shifting her gaze to Kieran’s face."Anything wrong? Don't you like it?" he asked."I'm just wonder

Lesley stared intently at him for a few seconds before sighing heavily. "Fine," she finally agreed, walking to a table nearby. And then she started to put her things away. "Instead of moving on with each other, I messed with your mind again," she murmured, then looked straight at him. "This is my fault. I'm sorry.""No. It's not your fault!" He exclaimed, shaking his head. "It was me. I did this. If I hadn't asked you for that one last kiss, last night wouldn't have happened."She paused, frowning at him. "What are you implying?""I made you feel something in that kiss, and you can't forget me," he answered so casually.Lesley scoffed, shaking her head. "I don't even know what to say. Can you stop assuming?"He walked to her, slightly bending down to put his mouth closer to her ears. "You miss me… And you want me…."Lesley stepped back and glared at him. If only those stares could cut him, he would be in pieces."I'm being serious," he immediately said while holding back a grin. "But

Lesley groaned painfully from the sudden throbbing in her head as soon as she woke up, the effect of the few glasses of alcohol she drank last night. She doesn't feel like getting up with how heavy her body feels until something suddenly occurs to her. She sprang up, sharply inhaling while covering her mouth with both hands. Her eyes widened in disbelief, recalling the events of last night."No... No, no, no!"She grabbed her hair and shook her head, wishing it was a dream.'What have I done?!'She closed her eyes tightly, biting her lips. She bent until her forehead touched her knees, burying her face in shame. If only the ground would swallow her right now. How will she deal with Kieran now? She doesn't even know if she still has a face to show him after her actions last night. "Lesley, are you awake?"Her breathing hitched when she heard the voice of the last man she wanted to see today. Her face lost its complexion as she looked towards the door.She remembered that Kieran pro

"What… What do you mean?" Kieran asked, staring intently at her face. "You're asking me why it has to be the last kiss? Do you... Do you want more?"Lesley's heart was beating so fast that she could hear its deafening pounding.She could not take her gaze off Kieran's eyes, which were also fixed on her, even though she felt like she was melting to the ground.Her expression remained brave and confident even though her thoughts were getting tangled in her brain.'What are you doing, Lesley?!' she scolded herself in her mind.She can already see that she will regret this in the morning. But she can't do anything but continue what she started. And she couldn't stop herself either, as if she had lost control."What's wrong with that?" she continued.There flared a strange sparkle in Kieran's eyes. He was speechless for a couple of seconds before he could respond to her."D-Do you... Do you mean it? Seriously—"He suddenly paused when he realized something. He blew violently and shook his

"Can I kiss you one last time?"Lesley caught her breath at Kieran’s sudden request. Her heart rate doubled and she froze in place."Please?" he pleaded.She gulped as she couldn't take her gaze off his pitiful expression, especially his eyes that had turned gray.She slightly pressed her lips for a split second while trying her best to control the crazy beating of her heart.How can she say no to him with that kind of expression on his face? He looks pitiful, but at the same time, irresistibly adorable."Okay..." she answered absent-mindedly.Kieran wasted no time. He let go of her hand and stepped closer so that their bodies were almost touching. Then he cupped both of her cheeks gently while staring intently at her face as if he had been looking forward to this opportunity for a very long time.She held tightly to the hem of his black t-shirt and then closed her eyes as he slowly brought their faces closer.A second later, she felt his soft lips gently touching hers, and her heart

Lesley took her deepest breath and then looked ahead. She decided to go to the training grounds to warm up. Rio might be there now to start their new training."Lesley!"She scrambled to her feet when she heard Kieran's voice calling out to her."Lesley, please wait!"She ignored him until he finally caught up to her."I swear I didn't mean to eavesdrop," he said.She took a deep breath and slowly faced him."Don't worry about it. It doesn't matter," she coldly responded.Kieran just smiled, then he held out a clean towel familiar to her. "I wanted to give this back to you."She frowned. "Is it mine?""Yes. It fell on the training grounds the last time we talked there. I washed it, so it's clean."She stared at his eyes for a few seconds, and then she averted her gaze immediately as if burned by something she saw in them."Thank you," she said, almost choking on the word."You're welcome," he answered sweetly.Lesley stared at Kieran again, which seemed strange. He appeared oddly dif

The sun had not risen yet, but Lesley was already busy helping Avery inspect the food rations that arrived at the hideout every two days. She volunteered to help because she wanted to know something that would help in her plan."Are you only assigned to food?" she asked as Avery busied herself with several pages of paper containing lists of the rations they had received."Yep," her friend answered without looking at her."What about other things? Like guns and medicines?""We have other people for that. I was only assigned to food rations because eighty percent of it comes from our family.""I see..." she trailed. "How about the gadgets? Where do you get the gadgets?"Avery frowned and looked up at her."Gadgets? What do you mean?""You have a burner phone, don't you? I see some mutants using that.""Do you want one?"She nodded, stepping closer. "Yes! How can I get one?""Is there someone outside you want to call?" Avery asked suspiciously."No one," she answered quickly with a broad

The air-conditioning in the room was cold enough, but a drop of sweat still managed to escape Kieran's forehead. Since he woke up from a wet dream a few hours ago, his body still felt hot. He knew he had to release this heat. But he doesn't seem to have the energy for anything right now. He is too lazy to even get up.Kieran has been awake for a while now. But he hasn't gotten up yet. He rested his head in his hands as he stared blankly at the ceiling, recalling his happy memories with Lesley and intimate moments.He kept thinking about the sexy dream he had last night. He misses her in his arms, her lips on his, her perky breasts, and her hot wetness. He recalled how sweet those tasted, especially the heaven between her legs. But most of all, he yearns for her beautiful eyes that always look at him passionately, and her soft voice muttering words of love for him. Oh, how he longed for that.If he only knew that they would be like this, he would have shown more of how much he loves he
