The Law of Attraction

Chapter 441: A Thief

'Join me shortly?' Liam mused as he walked. He wondered if Lana would barge in his room and sleep with him?

"No way…" he murmured because it was out of Lana's character. But then Lana had changed a lot and was more shameless so it would be possible.

"Maybe I should lock my door…" Liam whispered as soon as he entered the room. He immediately locked it. He was afraid of getting near Lana because he was aware that he could no longer control himself. He would definitely end up taking Lana and making love to her once she insisted on being beside him.

This time he was not drunk nor sick to give as an alibi…

"Can't she do all this after at least a month?" he complained as he took off his coat and prepared to wash up and go to bed. As much as he wanted to be with her, he could not because he wanted Lana to understand how wrong she was and to treasure him like a priceless possession, all this was going to be possible only if she would have to put strong efforts in gaining his acceptance.

"Damn… I'm being redundant already… Thinking a lot about efforts from her." He grunted as he walked to the bathroom to clean up.

After some time, Liam looked at the direction of his door once in a while, wondering if he should unlock it again or not? But it was too early to do that and he was afraid Lana was still awake and might barge in suddenly, seducing him and luring him into her arms.

'Will she really come inside? She said she will see me later so it means that she's planning to come inside my room, right?' he whispered to himself like a lunatic.

He was in a dilemma because he was wondering if he should unlock the door or not. He pondered for some time and then irritably covered his face with the quilt and shut his eyes.

He decided that he should just sleep and shouldn't be bothered with so many unnecessary thoughts of Lana. He started counting the sheep to help him sleep and soon he dozed off because he was too tired to keep awake.

On the other hand, Lana went out after cleaning herself up and changing into her sexy nightgown. She first walked to the bar to drink a few glasses of wine.

'Maybe I should drink beer so that I'll carry the smell of alcohol on my body and will not be drunk as well?' she mumbled as she opened the refrigerator to get a can of beer. She was shocked by herself, realizing how absurd she was thinking and behaving at that moment.

'Whatever, I don't care anymore!' she scoffed before gulping down the beer and even sprinkled some of it on her body.

'This is crazy, I can't believe I'm doing this!' she muttered as she walked back with the hope that his door would not be locked.

She paused at Liam's door and tried to open the door.

'That brute! He locked his door again?' she hissed with annoyance seeing his stubbornness in accepting her advances.

She went back to her room to take the spare key Riley made and easily unlocked Liam's door. Not wanting Liam to know about the secret key, she went back to her room to keep her key safely and then walked to Liam's door again.

She carefully opened it and sneaked inside. Lana felt like she was a thief, sneaking inside someone's room in the middle of the night.

She saw Liam sleeping and snoring heavily on his bed.

'Look at him sleeping peacefully while I'm dying to find out new ways to get his attention and make him love me more.' Lana mused as she gently climbed on the bed and carefully joined Liam on his side to sleep with him. Lana slowly moved closer and hugged him.

'This feels so good…' she silently thought as she snuggled her face on Liam's neck. Soon, she also dozed off and joined Liam in the dreamland.

Liam was awakened by the feeling of a heavy leg wrapped around his waist. He sluggishly opened his eyes and turned his head. His eyes suddenly widened with surprise when he saw Lana's peaceful face so close to his that just a few more moves would make his lips almost touch hers.

'What's going on?' Liam thought because he clearly remembered he had locked his door before going to bed the last night. How did she get inside then? He tried to recall whether he opened it but he remembered correctly that he did not.

'Did I sleepwalk and opened the door for her?' he mused frustratingly. He was still wondering whether he unconsciously unlocked it but he was so sure about not doing it.

He sighed as his feeble heart forced him to stare at Lana's beautiful face. Her nearness, her magnetic scent was such a comfort for him, but at the same time was torture as well. He could feel the heat in his body was starting to consume him fully.

Lana moved and before Liam could close his eyes and pretend he was still sleeping, Lana already opened hers and smiled brightly at him. That beautiful smile was so enchanting that he felt tied to the bed and couldn't even move a bit seeing her smiling face.

"Sleep a little more… It's still early," Lana mumbled.

"Did you drink last night?" Liam suddenly asked as he smelled beer from her body.

"Yup," Lana answered and moved her body closer to Liam, brushing it against him.

"How did you enter here? I remember I locked my room from inside before sleeping," Liam asked in a hoarse voice.

Lana sighed and candidly stated, "Liam, I want to sleep beside you… Every night. Can we please do that? I miss you so much when I am not around you. I want to feel your warmth. I want to be with you..."
