Chapter 318 – Supporting Son-in-law(Unedited)
After meeting Oliver and Ronnie, Noah had a hunch that Aria would not have dared to face them given the state she was in. She would have been too embarrassed to meet them. So, she would not have come in this way. If that was the case, then where could she have gone? Noah wondered and the next second, his eyes fell on the guest room that was behind him. It was the room nearest room to the kitchen and if anybody wanted to escape from people in the living room, then it was the perfect option.
Noah's lips curled up on seeing Aria's cute antics. How could not like her when she was this adorable and alluring? His feet took him towards the room. He did not have to struggle much as the room was not locked and he could get in with ease. However, Aria was not in the room. He frowned and was about to leave the room in search of her again when he heard a sound from the bathroom. His frown vanished and a smile took over his face. 'There she was.'
He did not hesitate even a second and tried to door, but it was locked from within. Noah chuckled lightly and the people who knew him clearly would understand the true meaning of his laughter. It was not out of helplessness or amazement. It was a laughter filled with devilish glint. He was happy to have cornered Aria after being disturbed by the nuisance of a man Joshua. Now that he had found Aria alone and that too in a much safer place where nobody would intervene in his mindblowing time with his sweet girl, how could he not be happy? What could be a better place than the bathroom to do what he wanted to with Aria and who would disturb him here?
With a huge smile on his face, Noah knocked at the door. "Aria." He called her out sweetly, trying to seduce her into succumbing to her needs. But to his dismay, all he got was silence. When he was about to knock at the door once again, he heard Aria's voice. "I will be out in a minute. Set the plates on the dining table." That was all it took for Noah's intentions to go down the drain. His excitement evaporated into thin air and his face fell.
"Aria," He called out to her once again. But the reply he received made him heartbroken like an abandoned puppy.
"Noah, I know what you want and let me tell you beforehand. I will not allow you to do anything to me right now, not when there is my Dad waiting for us to have dinner together. So, drop all your fantasies for now."
Aria's words made Noah pout and he badly wanted to break the door that was separating them. But he allowed her to do as she pleased as he had detected a loose end in her words. "In that case, can we resume it after dinner, in my room on my bed?" His words were met with silence for some time and he waited patiently for an affirmative answer.
"No, we are not doing anything today," Aria answered, throwing cold water on his desires.
"How about tomorrow then?" Noah asked when he found another loophole.
"No. I have night duty tomorrow. Now stop this nonsense and go to the dining hall. I'll be back in a moment."
"Aria, this is not nonsense. This is the most basic, most necessary and most mind-blowing, and precious thing in the world. How can you demean it this way? It is the purest form of love and there is nothing wrong in me desiring it." Noah wanted to continue with his talk and coax his woman to come to his lane. But he was interrupted right before he could get to the most interesting part.
"Noah, if you don't stop talking right now, I am going to forbid you from touching me for a week. You choose now." She seethed and her words hit the bullseye instantly. Noah gave up immediately and he looked like a pitiful dog who had been abandoned by his master on the streets. He did not know where to go or what to do now in this situation.
He was still waiting for her to open the door when he heard Aria's voice again. "Noah, I can sense you outside. If you are not leaving…"
"I am leaving. I am leaving." Noah replied in a hurry and left the room lest Aria should forbid him from touching her. How could he do that when he was had become a thirsty man who always craved for his woman, anytime anywhere? No way. He did not want to irk Aria and bring wrath upon himself. So, he left her to be following her orders this time and went to set up the dining table.
After five minutes, when Aria did not sense any sort of movement or noise outside the room, she slowly peeked out trying to see if Noah had actually left the room was in fact, hiding somewhere waiting to ambush her. Only after she was confirmed the coast to be clear did she step out of the bathroom. Although her face was still pink with lips slightly swollen, she looked much better than before.
Aria took a deep breath and she made up her mind. It was now time to jump to the battlefield and here the battlefield was coming face to face with her father after what she had done in the kitchen. She started out boldly as she had to meet him at any given time. But as soon as she reached the entrance of the dining hall, her pace reduced when she stopped altogether in her place. She lost all the confidence she had mustered up and now she wished to retreat so badly that she turned on her heels to escape from the room. However, to her horror, her father was standing right behind observing all her moves with a questioning gaze.
"Da-Dad," She stuttered and retreated two steps, her eyes averting everywhere else other than her father's face. She did not even have the confidence to meet his eyes now.
"Why are you leaving? Don't you want to have dinner?" He questioned her even though he knew what was running in her mind. Oliver did not have to be a genius to know why she was flustered. He had gone through the situation a lot more times than he could even remember or count. He could see that Aria was embarrassed. So, he did not dwell into the matter more nor was he interested in it too. It was a matter between the couple and even though he wanted to tease his daughter, he gave her some slack seeing how red her face had gone.
"I-I-I am.."
"Let's go and have dinner. I am starving." Oliver did not give her time to even speak and pushed her inside with his hands on her shoulders. Now Aria could not get out of the predicament she was in. So, she could only succumb to her father's wishes and go inside. She sighed in relief when she did not find Noah anywhere around. She then sat towards the left of the main seat while Oliver and Ronnie took the chairs opposite her.
The three people started to serve for themselves without waiting for Noah when the man in question walked in without any care in the world. His hair had gone disheveled as though he had run his hands at least a hundred times through them and he was dressed casually. The tight-fitting shirt enhanced his manliness and his biceps. Oh my God. His biceps made Aria to squeeze her thighs together. This was the first time she was seeing him in this attire and that was all it took for her to get seduced. His demeanor made him look like a college hunk and Aria could not help but gulp looking at the sex god before her.
Noah felt the heated gaze from his left. But he did not look at her even once, although a subtle smirk carved up on his face. He noticed her dreamy gaze on him and he patted himself in his mind for choosing the shirt he was wearing. It was a short-sleeved blue shirt that reached just above his biceps and he knew that it looked awesome on him. He had seen the maids ogle at him more especially when he wore the shirt and just like how he had expected, Aria was no different. She too was enticed now.
Noah sat down casually at the main seat without any change in his facial expressions. However, his heart was doing acrobatics right now. He was getting jittery as every second passed with him this close to Aria and thankfully, Oliver came to his rescue when he enquired him about his work.
The entire dinner was torture to both Aria and Noah as they very badly wanted to kiss the person they loved the most. But they had to hold up their desires as there were two other men with them and they could not behave improperly in front of them. So, they waited until the dinner finished, and when it was finally time for them to retire for the night, another issue popped. Where would Aria be staying from now?
Noah wanted her to stay with him in his room. But Aria was not that willing given that her father was staying with them. It would not look good for them to share the room and she had no intention of offending him whatsoever. But to her surprise and to Noah's happiness, Oliver had no issue with it. "You kids need to buck up with your life. With the speed you are traveling at, I don't think I will be able to hold my grandkids even after ten years. Noah, take Aria to your room. She will be staying with you from now on."
That's it. Aria's own father sealed her fate and pushed her to the wolf's den. She was now sure that her father had shifted preferences now and was wholeheartedly supporting his son-in-law. Otherwise, who do would do something like this to his own daughter?
