A FORCED CONTRACT MARRIAGE WITH THE DEVIL

Chapter 133

“Nikolai,” I said, my voice lower than usual but still rough.

He stirred, lashes fluttering. Then those familiar eyes opened, dazed for a moment before settling on me.

“Alessandro?” he mumbled, his voice hoarse, distant.

Jexhaled slowly when he didn’t speak coldly. “I thought something happened. You didn’t call. Didn’t text.”

He blinked a few times, like he was trying to remember how to be present, then sat up against the headboard. “My phone died.”

His tone was flat. Not irritated. Not apologetic. Just… tired. He didn’t smile. Not even a flicker of amusement or relief crossed his face.

I glanced at the dead device on the nightstand, my jaw tightening. “You couldn’t plug it in?”

“I didn’t think it mattered,” he said quietly, his eyes meeting mine without flinching.

That hit somewhere deep, sharp and unexpected. I didn’t want him to start disrespecting me.

I swallowed my anger down. “You scared me.”

He didn’t respond immediately. I waited but he didn’t bother replying. I decided to look at him.

His hair was a mess, jaw shadowed with stubble, his shirt clinging to him from a restless sleep

“Have you eaten?”

He shook his head faintly.

I exhaled, rubbing the back of my neck. I didn’t know what else to say. Everything I wanted to yell at him for seemed pointless now that he was in front of me, whole… but not okay.

“…Did you shower?”

His eyes flicked up to me, startled. “What?”

“Did you shower yet?” I repeated, my voice lower and gentler.

He blinked again, like he’d only just noticed himself, then shook his head slowly. “No. I didn’t… I wasn’t thinking about it.”

I gave a tight nod, stepping closer, lowering myself to the edge of the bed. “You should.”

That made him laugh just a little. Dry and humorless. “You came in here worried I was dead and now you’re telling me to take a shower?”

I looked at him. Really looked.

“You’re not dead,” I said then stood up and walked towards the bathroom.

“Get in, I spoke after opening the door.

“No,” he said. Is he really defying me right now?

“Nikolai “I said but with more power to my voice.

Get in the shower or I will punish you

I’m not in the mood to be threatened,” he muttered.

That wasn’t a threat,” I said calmly. “You know I can mercilessly, don’t wake up the beast inside me, I added with a clenched jaw

“Okay! I’m in!”

Finally, he swung his legs off the bed and stood. His shoulders were stiff, and I could see the hesitation in the way his fingers curled at his sides. But he walked past me, brushing against my arm as he entered the bathroom.

I stayed by the door, watching him.

“You don’t have to babysit me,” he said without turning
