The Playboy’s Downfall novel Chapter 2

Apollo frowned and stopped a meter away from her. “Kitchen. How about you? Why don’t you take a rest—”

“I can’t sleep,” she replied and bit her lower lip when she saw how Apollo's gaze wandered into her body, particularly into her breasts.

She knew that her nipples were visible since she was not wearing a bra. To cut his fantasies, she walked past him and entered the kitchen.

Better play catches me, she thought.

Fuck his muscles! She exclaimed inside her head. It’s so perfect. I wonder what his body looks like when he’s naked? She thought and shook her head while she pulled the fridge door. She gets one plastic bottle of water and closes the fridge.

When she turned, she gasped when she saw Apollo.

“What are you still doing here?”

Apollo looked at her coldly. “Let’s talk,” he said and turned his back away from her.

Talk?

Where do they going to talk? Why are they walking toward his room?

“Hey, wait,” Becca uttered and grabbed Apollo in the arm, “—where are we going?” she asked.

Apollo arched his brow and looked at her coldly. “My room,” he replied.

Becca’s eyes widened. “Why? We can talk in the living room or the garden—”

“Do you want us to talk or not?” Apollo asked.

Becca let go of him and crossed her arms in front of her chest. Suddenly, she crept a smile on her face. “Hmm… I think this is not just about—”

“Don’t imagine things. This will be quick. Don’t get naughty. I don’t do virgins,” Apollo answered, and he knew it was below the belt. However, it’s all he knew to stop Becca from overthinking. As he thought the woman would get hurt, his lips parted slightly when Becca smirked.

“Really? Fine. Come on, let’s talk then,” she said and walked ahead. She stopped in front of Apollo’s room. She moved aside to let Apollo open it.

Apollo heaved a deep sigh and shook his head. This is how hard to deal with teens at this time, he thought.

Becca and Isla were alike in terms of their behavior.

They stepped inside, and Apollo closed and locked the door.

Becca smiled in her heart. Talk, huh? She thought. She’s confident enough that Apollo won’t let the temptation slip away.

So, if she dares to get naked in front of him, Apollo will get tempted. Just like what had happened at the airport, inside his car.

Becca roamed her eyes inside his room and couldn’t help but get astonished. His room is simple and masculine. Its interior shouts luxury.

She guessed she needed to celebrate since this was the first time that Apollo had let her inside his room and even entertained her.

“What’s wrong with the wind, Apollo? Why all of a sudden?” she couldn’t help to ask anymore.

Apollo sat on his bed and looked at her. She just stood there; arms crossed.

What was that?

What’s wrong with him?

Her thoughts are haywire now. Confused about Apollo’s attitude.

She has a strong feeling that it’s not about her mother whom he wants to talk about. She sighed. Guess she needs to wait for him.

She then stood up and walked towards the balcony of Apollo’s room. She pulled back the curtain and pushed the sliding door to the side as she stepped on the balcony.

The fresh air enveloped her body and slapped her face. She smiled as she looked up at the sky. The stars are glimmering, and it seems like they’re shouting hope. The night was beautiful as the sky was clear. The moon is smiling at her and beams its light to the whole place. She walked forward and leaned on the railings. She looked down and saw the circular driveway of the Peterson. The fountain in its center gives a royalty vibe. The blooming flower with different fragrances enveloped the whole place.

She couldn’t help but flash a smile.

God’s creations are beautiful.

She embraced herself when the wind blew strongly. She smiled and was about to turn when she felt the warmth from the embrace of the person behind her.

“Let’s stay like this for a while,” Apollo whispered. His warm breath touches her skin, making her close her eyes.

After a few moments, Apollo let her turn and face him.

Apollo never hesitates to brush his lips into hers. His right hand went into her waist and pulled her closer to deepen the kiss.

On this very night, the stars and the moon witnessed their kiss.
