Chapter 1130 Tease Her
That night, Toby devoured Sonia like a ravenous beast. If it weren’t that her ability to withstand his manhandling was far better than before, she’d probably pass out from exhaustion like the other two times.
That said, she was still so spent from their night that she lay immobile in bed, so much so that she didn’t even want to lift a finger. She just looked at the warm chandelier on the ceiling with droopy eyes.
Toby, on the other hand, stood next to the bed and leisurely put on a dressing gown, looking all sated and beyond refreshed. Seeing so, Sonia turned her head away from him in anger, not wanting to look at him.
She had already begged for mercy so many times, and he would reply to her with ‘last one’ every time. But what happened in the end?!
Ptui! Men and their lies!
Of course, Toby saw how upset she was with him and knew precisely why, so after tying his dressing gown, he chuckled under his breath and coaxed, “Open your eyes. I’ll carry you into the shower.”
However, Sonia kept her eyes closed but raised her arms, waving them limply. “Carry me like this. I’m spent. I don’t want to move.”
This wasn’t his first time giving her a shower anyway, so she could very well accept letting him carry her into the bathroom after their night.
Seeing how lazy his girl was, he tapped her nose and said nothing more but carried her into the bathroom.
By the time they came out, it was already four in the wee hours, about two hours before the sun would rise. Toby lifted the covers and put Sonia back in bed before joining her.
Sonia was a little more conscious when her body touched the soft mattress, and she finally opened her eyes. That said, they were still only half open.
She blinked and looked at Toby, mumbling in a kittenish voice while yawning involuntarily, “What time is it?”
“Four o’clock.” Toby checked the time on his wristwatch.
At that, she shut her eyes again after hearing it was still so early. “There’s still a few hours until the sun rises, and here I thought it’s already morning when you’re wide awake.”
“No, go ahead and sleep.” As he tucked her in, she nuzzled in his arms. “Are you not going to sleep? There are still a few hours before we have to get up. Get some sleep. What if you get weary during work?”
“I’m not tired. You go ahead and sleep. I’ll watch over you.” Toby lay on his side with one hand propping his head up and the other patting her waist, coaxing her to sleep like she was a child.
Very quickly, drowsiness crept up to her following his gentle pats, and she couldn’t help yawning again.
“You really are a freak,” she mumbled.
“How am I a freak?” Toby quirked an eyebrow.
“Are you not?” Sonia grabbed his collars with both hands. Her eyes were still closed as she complained, “I’m so tired every time after hours of intimacy, and yet you’re alive and kicking. You’re not even sleepy. Tell me you’re not a freak that won’t get weary.”
Toby chuckled under his breath, “Well, I’m sure you like this freak very much. After all—”
Sonia stirred at once, having a good idea what the man was about to say next. The second she opened her eyes, she hurriedly covered his lips. “Shush! Not another word or I’ll bite you!”
She glared daggers at Toby, warning him, looking absolutely vicious. However, to a certain someone, instead of feeling intimidated, he thought she looked absolutely adorable, like an angry toddler.
At that, he stuck his tongue out and licked her palm. Tickled, Sonia withdrew her hand right away and shouted, “Toby Fuller!”
“Speaking.” He blinked innocently.
It was as though a bucket of water was doused on Sonia’s blazing anger when she saw how innocently he acted, making her feel super uncomfortable.
Alas, she could only bore into the man. However, her eyes turned dry and uncomfortable from all the glaring before she managed to do anything to him.
In the end, she raised a white flag and admitted defeat.
Forget it. Why fight this b*stard?! When have I ever defeated him?!
A hint of a smile flashed across Toby’ eyes when he saw her mope, and he ruffled her soft hair. “Alright, I won’t tease you anymore. Go on, sleep.”
“Sleep?” Sonia rolled her eyes at him. “How can I go back to sleep after what you’ve done?!”
“Can’t sleep?” Toby narrowed his eyes.
Sonia hummed a response, still oblivious to the impending danger.
At that, Toby lifted the covers. “Since you can’t sleep, why don’t we continue till dawn?”
While speaking, he turned over, looking like he intended to pin her down.
Terrified, Sonia screeched, “I dare you, Toby! I’m going to get mad at you if you keep at this! I’m serious!”
With that, she shut her eyes. However, nothing happened after a while.
So she opened her eyes tentatively to see the man’s stunning face and teasing smiling eyes.
It was only then a thought hit her, and she blushed. “You pranked me?!”
Toby sniggered. Duh?
At that, Sonia’s face flushed further, mortified, for Toby was just messing with her and didn’t really intend to have another go. But she thought he was serious about it…
So she felt absolutely mortified as she met this teasing gaze, wishing she could just bury herself up.
Ah! This is absolutely embarrassing!
Hence, she pulled the covers over and wrapped herself up from head to toe, shutting the outside world out. It was as though by doing so, she could ward off all animosity in the world.
Meanwhile, it instantly hit Toby that he had screwed up big time when his beloved had balled herself up beneath the covers.
Sigh, what to do? Coax her, then what else?
“Sonia, pull the covers down. You won’t be able to breathe.” He tugged on the covers while coaxing. However, Sonia held a death grip on it, giving the man a hard time pulling the covers away for a moment.
It stumped Toby for a second before coming to himself and continued tugging on it.
That said, he didn’t do it forcefully but deliberately played a tug-of-war with her as only by doing so he wouldn’t freak her out, or he wouldn’t be soothing her but asking for a fight.
“Sonia, baby, let go. I apologize, okay? That was on me. I shouldn’t have teased you. Don’t be mad at me anymore, please?” cooed Toby with all the patience in the world as he lowered his head to look at the young woman hidden beneath the covers.
Meanwhile, Sonia felt better, seeing that he apologized.
With that, she poked her head out, revealing a still-blushing face. “All you do is tease me.” She snorted while looking at him.
“No, I don’t. You’re just so cute that I can’t help myself.” He cradled her in his arms, where she remained still.
Great, I can forget about getting any sleep now, Sonia mused.
“Do that again, and I’ll really ignore you.” She looked up at him and gave him a warning punch.
“Never again.” Toby nuzzled his chin against the top of her head. “I was just messing with you. I really don’t intend to do anything.”
