The Fate Of The World Is In My Hands, But All I Want To Do Is Eat! - Chapter 218

Chapter 218: Alice stared at the ceiling Chapter 218: Alice stared at the ceiling ‘I…

I’m confused.’ Alice thought, shutting her eyes to endure the intensity of the kiss.

‘Why am I doing this with Mark right now?’ Her body was heating up for some reason and while the kiss she had with Michela was warm and sweet, this one was like a hot flame.

Was it because she let Mark take the lead?

No, Micheal equally took the lead back then.

Then, was it just the difference in characters?

Who knew Mark was such a wild kisser?

Just what was going on in his mind?

She clutched the fabric around his chest and Mark slowly laid her down, all while their lips were locked.

And by the time he let go, panting hard, he found a view of Alice that only ever played on his thoughts.

She was panting softly, her lips slightly parted, her face flushed and her eyes were quite hazy from the intensity of the kiss.

She felt pleasure, it would seem like it but he had no idea what was playing in her mind.

And that expression…

He dropped his head on her shoulder, his back crouched as he hid his flushed and bewildered expression.

Now he has another problem.

Alice didn’t know why he went so hard with the kiss but she did know one thing…

She liked kissing.

“I’ll get going now.” He said, getting down from the bed, leaving Alice laid back and panting.

“Thank you, Alice.” He said, not daring to meet her eyes.

“I think I can fall asleep now.” Alice’s pants subsided and she smiled.

“I guess that’s good to hear.” She said, “Good night, Mark.” “Good night, Alice.” He walked towards the door, but before he walked out, he glanced back, only to find her still in that position but with her eyes closed.

She would probably sleep from there.

He did not rush out, even when he knew he was in a crisis, to avoid suspicion and he was lucky.

Alice did not suspect a thing.

She did not see anything.

Mark walked out of the room, hurried towards his own room, offloaded his clothes, and hit the bathroom right away.

He turned on the shower and soaked in cold water, his breath hard and edgy.

He brushed his fingers through his wet hair and thought back to Alice’s lips.

It was just for that moment, but he felt like he was on top of the world, having to own her lips, twirl tongues, and exchange saliva.

It was something he could only ever dream of.

And Alice…

He thought back to the sultry look she made subconsciously…

She was just too alluring.

Alice stared at the ceiling for a while, thinking of the kiss and how different it was from Michael’s.

But even if it was different, it still made her heart race, probably cause she was short of breath, and made her feel sweet.

Well, that aside, it wasn’t just the kiss keeping her awake.

She was supposed to fall asleep right away, but in her body, deep down, in a depth she was very unaware of, she could feel the presence of a growing plant.

She could see it, as well as its structure.

It was the size of a budding seed, one that just shot its leaves out for the first time, so that meant it was new to her body.

And this plant, though she had no idea what it was or how it got into her, had two completely different sides to it, like it was split into two.

One side was the color crimson and it had a very appealing fragrance, something capable of enticement, but the other side was dark and sinister, bearing what would seem to be evil and untold intentions.

At least, that’s how it came off to her.

Both sides were being borne by one single plant that didn’t even have branches yet.

She had no idea where this plant came from or what its purpose was, but she could not feel any evil intentions from it.

It did not suck on her energy, rather, it was actually supplying her with its mysterious energy, which was strange.

She could feel thin threads drawing from the plant and its roots, towards her life force.

It was wrapping around her heart like an energy globe being formed from woven threads.

But as magical as it would seem, it was still in her body, and it was still unknown, so it gave her cause to worry.

If she wanted to be on the safe side, then this was the best time to try to uproot whatever that mysterious plant was but she had no idea how.

Her best bet was to tell Leo about it.

That is…

Her breathing softened…

Once she woke up.

“Will you do this for me every morning?” Alice asked, staring at her reflection in the mirror as Miss Stella brushed her hair.

She had repeated the previous day’s routine and flipped Alice out of bed.

But this time, Alice did not beg to have one more minute of sleep.

She got up quietly after a little grumbling and went to take her bath.

Leo was capable of keeping a distance of as far as the dining table, but aside from helping to prepare the meal downstairs, Alice would not want to be apart from him.

“Well, it doesn’t bother me.” Miss Stella said, her expression softening.

“Does it bother you that I come to wake you up and get you ready for school?” “No, not really.” Alice answered and glanced at her through the mirror.

“And since you seem to enjoy this, I won’t rob you of it.

So, please continue to take care of me.” As soon as Alice said that, Miss Stella wrapped her arms around Alice, dropping her head on her shoulder.

This action surprised Alice and she wondered what this was about.

“Pardon me, Alice.” Miss Stella said.

“I just like to brush your hair, but lately, you’ve been reminding me of someone.” “Is it the way I act?” Alice asked but Miss Stella shook her head, raising her head and adjusting her glasses.

“No, you two are quite the opposite, I’m afraid.” She let out a little chuckle as she continued brushing Alice’s hair.

“I don’t know how to pinpoint it but the similarity is just there.

Maybe it’s because you both have brown hair and brown eyes.” She laughed.

“A silly reason since a lot of people have brown hair and brown eyes.

Then, is it your nose?

The shape of your face?

I can’t tell but I feel so familiar with you.” Alice went silent.

If she reminded her of someone so badly, then it would only make Alice curious as to who that person was.

Oh well, it wasn’t her business so she wouldn’t want to ask.

But…
