Chapter 85 Not Easy

Dominic rushed forward and grabbed Bella’s clothes, Inadvertently tearing them with a loud rip. As he pulled her hack, she slammed into him, and they both fell to the floor bella,shaken and confused, realized her clothes were ripped, and the cold night air made her lower half feel very cold.

She was only wearing a long T–shirt that was now torn so much that her waist was almost exposed.

“Are you crazy?” she yelled.

Dominic sat up and grabbed the back of her neck. He made her look at him like he was holding a cat. His face showed both anger and a bit of fear

Bella was confused by Dominic’s yelling. Her words were slurred from drinking, “1., I just had one of your bottles of wine. Was it that expensive?”

Dominic was too angry to speak. He had seen her leaning over the edge, ready to jump, and talking about how life wasn’t worth it. And now she was asking about the wine? When he stayed silent, Bella remembered what had happened and realized she had almost tallen

Still a bit tipsy, she said, “Why did you come up here and yell at me? I almost fell. You’re hunting me! Let go!”

Dominic’s face was tense with anger. “Almost fell? You were trying to junap who gave you the right to die? You’re not afraid of dying, but you’re afraid of a little pain?

Bella realized Dominic had misunderstood. He thought she wanted to die because of Simon, but she had just lost her balance because he scared her.

She tried to explain, but her tongue felt heavy, and her head was spinning from the alcohol.

Without thinking, she tried to push him away, wanting to get free and feel better but then he suddenly kissed her, his lips claiming hers with intense passion. Bella felt like she couldn’t breathe, her hands telling uselessly by her sides as he held her close. She didn’t mind the kiss; in fact, she found some comfort in it.

When his touch reached her sensitive spots, she let out a soft incan.

Then Dominik suddenly pulled back, his passion tading as he returned to his usual calm self.

He roughly threw his shirt over her, lifted her into his armis, and, seeing she was too drunk to stand, carried her downstairs. His face was still etched with lingering anger. Bella wrapped her ass around his neck, looking up at his strong low and lips, still feeling his kiss.

In her drunken state, she said something she would never say when sober, “We’ve fucked so many times, but I’ve never been your girlfriend… You’re so irresponsible… You jerk!” Dominic stopped suddenly, “How about you try being my girlfriend then? Just so you know, it’s not easy.”

He stared at her, and it was hard to tell if he was joking or serious.

Bella leaned on him, slurring her words as she mumbled, “Why don’t we just try it? If it doesn’t work out, who cares? I’m sick of things being so unclear between us. Even if it’s just for a day, being your girlfriend might make me lead less crappy. Don’t you think so?”
