This chapter is dedicated to @Josefina_Kearns! Thank you so much for the supergift!

Alicia stilled for a moment. She did not expect to be placed in this position. That he would make her use his lap as her pillow this time. And the warmth of his touches, his large palm covering her eyes like an eye mask and his lap serving as her pillow, all these temporarily distracted her from the thoughts that were buzzing busily around in her head. _{freeweɓnovel.cѳm}

She lifted her hand and placed it over his that was covering her eyes. "I don't want to sleep. And you're obviously not alright. You're hungry." She declared gently, deciding to not talk about what she badly wanted to talk about for now. It was fine if she changed the topic for now.

"I'm telling you again for the nth time Alicia. I. Am. Fine. A simple hunger won't do much damage to me. Even if my vampiric side is starving and weak, I still have my demonic powers with me." He explained to her as patiently as he could, and she could sense that he had his eyes closed again. She did now know how she knew it, but she just somehow did.

"Alright. I won't insist anymore. But… I really don't want to sleep." She gently pushed away his palm that were covering her eyes and looked up at him. Their eyes met and she continued. "Don't put me to sleep... please, Ezekiel." She blinked slowly at him as she pleaded with eyes going as puppy-dog as she could make them, and she felt Ezekiel turning into a statue.

He did not make even the slightest movement. He just froze, looking down at her as if he could not believe what he had just seen nor heard.

Well, Alicia screamed within her as well at what she just did. She never does that but… she had thought that she must try a different approach in dealing with this man or else she would just end up spending the rest of her last nine days sleeping it away.

But she did not think his reaction would be like this. That he would react this strongly to her persuading methods. For a moment, she was afraid that he would bark out from laughter at her silly attempt to act cute to sway him but… oh goodness! Was it actually working on the high and mighty lord Ezekiel? The triumph she felt was just so strong she could not stop herself from grinning. Making this man react like this was just simply damned satisfying. There was no way else to describe it.

He tore his gaze off hers when the corners of her lips lifted. He looked sideways, clearing his throat, but Alicia was already beaming with joy.
