CHAPTER 197
"I told you before, right? We are not dating Liu Xueyi. This is different. There is nothing going on between us."
"Good. That's just your excuse but until when? When would you realize it?"
"Realize what?" Andromeda questioned.
She lifted her hands to her hair and raked her fingers through it, scattering it in a mess over her shoulder as she brought her gaze to him.
"I know you said we were an item for my sake but now, you are making me regret it. You have no right to kiss me at will or act all so possessive with my friends."
His eyes darkened and he called out her name in a warning tone. "Andromeda."
He could only take so much and right now he did not want her to push him past his break point.
"No. It is you who should stop. You weren't the one who I did it with that night. You do not need to act and behave as though..."
"I can damn it! I can," Liu Xueyi interjected.
His eyes darted from side to side, holding her curious and shocked gaze.
"I can because I want to. Because I have to and I need to."
His actions and words were still annoying her. If he wanted her, he should just say it and stop hiding. Until then she was going to cut this relationship with him off.
"No!" Andromeda half-yelled, forcing him to keep quiet.
Rather than letting her voice drown his, he got tired of yielding. He was tired of letting her go and waiting for her to love him back.
Feeling his rage, Liu Xueyi took a step back and turned around. He did not know how such a brilliant girl could be so clueless.
At that moment, he resigned himself to fate. If that was how it was going to be, then very well.
He was going to tell her.
Turning on his heels to face her, his deep baritone resonated in her hearing. "I can and I care because I was the one."
Andromeda let out a tired scoff while shaking her head in denial. "I guess acting like we were one is making you now believe it but it is not true."
"It is!" He hollered at her.
"Everything, anything, all that happened that night, was me. I was the one who took your virginity."
"W-wh-hat?" Andromeda's lips quivered in disbelief as she furrowed her brows, trying to make sense of what he was saying.
"Y-You're joking right?"
Even after asking those questions the look in Liu Xueyi's eyes did not change.
If there was anything she could see tears begin to gather in his eyes as they glistened in the bright living room.
Shaking her head, as if to deny it, by all means, another tear flowed out from her left eye as she called out his name, "Xueyi."
"I did it, Andromeda. It was I who slept…" the words seemed to hang in his throat at that point and he waited for another two seconds before resuming. "It was me at the hotel that night."
Her eyes remained unblinking as she gaped in shock at her surroundings while her brain tried so much to figure out what was going on.
"Dela Coral Hotel, Room Number 8319 at about 11 pm. I recalled looking at the time from where I was taken from before being brought to my supposed room."
No matter how hard she tried to get it, it seemed out of reach and all she could remember remained the fog in her brain.
"A stranger knocked on your door. You opened the same time I did and we fell to the ground with me on top of you."
With each detail told to her that only she and the stranger knew, Andromeda found herself being led to that night and things that remained bleak in the past started becoming clear as though she had someone who knew the way and showing her the direction.
Lips entwined, hands, body… tongue licking, tasting, the sweet cries of pleasure… His need, her deep desire.
The incessant burning between her legs, the craving for control… All of the emotions she felt that day came rushing back to her memory, leaving her in a state of confusion.
She may not have recalled much that night and added to the dimly lit room, her case was terrible but that voice.
Andromeda felt like face palming herself. How could she have forgotten that voice?
Especially when he complimented her with the burning desire in his heart and loins.
'Beautiful…'
'Enchantingly soft.' His lips found her breast, stealing soft kisses as he enveloped each nipple in his mouth.
'I want you.'
And then Andromeda felt a sharp pain course through her body as her hymen was being forcefully torn.
Just like a snap of the finger, she was instantly pulled back from her reverie by that pain.
For the past few months now, she had thought she healed but who would have thought?
The problem of not recalling much was still related to the pain of having her hymen broken as well as the drugs given to her.
Slowly she let her eyelashes flutter to a close as more and more of those tears washed over her beautiful face.
"I am sorry but I searched for you, Andy. I searched everywhere I could. And my search still went on, hoping to find you. I wanted to take responsibility for my actions."
Taking a slight pause, he allowed her to process all he had said while ensuring he did not overwhelm her with the shocking truth.
"I literally want you, Andy. You can imagine my shock when I found out that the woman, I was searching for was the one I was already falling for."
She pried her eyelashes open as she let her gaze land on his face.
No longer did he bother to hide it or hold it in and to her amazement, the second her eyes locked with his, a teardrop fell out of his right eye.
"I have been the one Andy. And I am so sorry for not letting you know. I got scared. Yes, it wasn't my fault but it was no excuse."
