Chapter 705 Morning Desire
Skylar's text read: I'm back. Where are you?
Tobias replied: You'll see me in half an hour.
Skylar's phone pinged as she was getting drowsy. After reading Tobias' text, she willed herself to stay
awake by watching a live broadcast to wait for him. Nevertheless, she dozed off in less than thirty
minutes.
The house was pitch-black by the time Tobias returned. Without turning the lights on, he made his way
to the bedroom on the second floor and was greeted by an interesting sight. Skylar was lying
spreadeagled on the bed in her cute teddy bear pajamas. Seeing the blanket on the ground, Tobias
picked it up and placed it over her quietly to avoid waking her up.
She must be exhausted from her journey back from Baykeep.
Just then, Skylar rolled over and murmured something in a language Tobias could not recognize.
Skylar's phone screen was still lit, displaying the profile of a male live streamer. He had the typical
features of a toy boy; bright eyes and neat teeth. Even his voice sounded gentle, too.
Tobias recalled Skylar watching the same person's live stream before. So, this is the kind of guy she
likes? He looks wimpy and not the slightest bit masculine. Wait. Wasn't this the guy I blocked using her
account after studying the application for a long time? How did she find his account again?
Once again, Tobias sat at the edge of the bed and figured out a way to block the account again. Maybe
I didn't block it completely.
At the same time, a WhatsApp notification appeared at the top of the screen, but he ignored it because
he did not like invading people's privacy.
Moments later, Skylar's arm hit something solid. Thinking she had bumped into something, her eyes
flew open, and she found herself gripping Tobias' arm tightly. One of her legs was also resting on him.
She had no idea when Tobias returned last night. Before she could admire his sleeping face, he
opened his eyes and croaked, “Why did you wake up so early? You should get more sleep.”
Pressing her chin onto his shoulder, she said, “How can I when the roosters outside are already
crowing!”
Thanks to Skylar, Tobias was already wide awake. Lying on his side, he pulled her into his embrace. As
he thought about it, he realized he had been sleeping alone for over a month. Time flies.
Then again, he was swamped with work every day that he did not notice how long Skylar had been
away.
Skylar wrapped her arms tightly around Tobias' waist. “Why aren't you asking me how I've been
doing?”
“I don't need to because you'll tell me,” came Tobias' deep voice.
Skylar could not help but tut in annoyance. Tobias is so dense. “I haven't been doing well. There were
many strifes among the women and it made filming tiring. I thought I could take this as an opportunity
to travel, but I was so wrong. I swear I'll never join this kind of program anymore. I'm traumatized.”
Skylar had a terrible experience being a part of the program. The first few days were fine, but things
started going downhill when the organizers decided to have cameras rolling twenty-four-seven. The
guests were not even spared when they were sleeping. The format put them in agony, so much so that
they had to be wary when talking to another person.
During that time, she dared not contact Tobias in case their relationship got exposed.
After that, she got involved in a few arguments, which drained her even more. The whole incident of no
one coming to get her was a huge blow to her. Content rights by NôvelDr//ama.Org.
Hence, she swore she would never join the filming for the next season if she were invited again.
Tobias knew Skylar was seeking his comfort after having a hard time out there.
Wrapping his arms around her shoulders, he coaxed, “Okay. I'll tell Valerie to not include you in
programs like that anymore.”
Skylar nestled in his arms without budging. She had thought of many things to tell him on her way
home.
Yet, she had no idea where to begin at the moment. All she could do was lie in his arms and feel the
growing desire of a man who had just woken up.
