Bedmates Soulmates novel Chapter 319

Neither spoke for a while. 

Kira looked out the window and couldn’t recognise the road they were on. ‘Where are we going? 

This didn’t look like the way home. 

“You’ll know it when we get there,‘ was Austyn’s terse reply. 

Kita knitted her brows. 

What was with the mystery? 

What new game was he playing now? 

But she knew she wasn’t going to get a straight answer out of him. 

So Kira just gave up and closed her eyes. 

The afternoon heat was making her drowsy. 

She settled in for a long nap. 

It was nice at first, with the aircon blowing cool air on her face and the steady hum of the engine acting as a soporific. 

But Kira suddenly felt unable to breathe, like someone had placed a giant boulder on her chest. 

This Shall Be Our First Date 

Kina never learned how to swim. 

Her father tried to teach her when she was a kid, but she would just clutch the floatie and cry whenever she was put in the water. 

Eventually, her father gave up 

Now the same feeling returned. 

The same feeling of being underwater, of drowning. 

There was no air. 

She couldn’t breathe. 

She opened her mouth and gasped for air, but something took the opportunity to slip inside. 

The Intruder took possession of her mouth and forced her tongue to respond 

It was taking air away from her lungs. 

Kira’s eyes snapped open. 

She saw black, thick eyelashes. 

Then Austyn’s face. 

Kira shrank back and slapped his arm, hard 

Austyn drew back and let go of her. 

Kira sucked in a big lungful of air, 

‘You almost suffocated me!” 

Austyn swept his eyes over her parted lips. 

He felt thirsty. 

‘You were out like a log. I couldn’t wake you up.” 

This was the only method he could think of 

A method he enjoyed immensely. 

‘You could’ve just given my shoulders a shake, Kira thought. There was no need to stick your tongue down my throat.‘ 

But she decided there was no point getting into an argument over the best wake–up method 

“Where are we?” She looked out the window. 

‘Carpark‘ 

“I can see that.” She rolled her eyes. “Carpark of what place?” 

Austyn was already out of the car. “Come on,” 

Kira stumbled out of the car, staggering in her high heels. 

Austyn 

yn had to give her a hand 

‘Let’s go! 

‘To where? 

Two minutes later, Kira stepped out of the lift and found herself back in the familiar shopping mall 

What were they doing back here? 

Austyn brought her to the shoe shop. 

He went up to a sales clerk Pick out a pair of flats for her. 

The sales clerk recognised Austyn, who had been here just a couple of hours ago 

“Yes, sir! 

you to try on.‘ 

She showed Kira to an ottoman. ‘Miss, please have a seat. I’ll bring out our latest flats for yo Kira sat down. 

The lady returned a minute later with three different pairs of flats. 

She was about to squat down in front of Kira when Austyn stopped her. ‘Let me 

He took the shoes Troncher. 

Kira watched Austyn get down on one knee, just like he did outside the hospital. 

Her brain went into overdrive. 

Austyn was acting so out of character. 

He removed her high heels and helped her slip on a pair of dark fuchsia satin almond–toe flats. 

Each shoe had a square crystal buckle encased in a gunmetal frame 

‘Does it fit?” he asked. “Do you like it? 

His voice was low and deep, 

When they were in bed together, he’d sometimes use the same voice and ask, “How about this? Do you like it?” 

Then he would go on to push her over the edge. 

Kira blinked 

She wriggled her toes and moved her feet. “They’re nice. Comfy. No chaling 

‘Do you want to try the other pairs?‘ 

‘No, no, this is fine. They’re perfect.” 

“We’ll get this pair. Austyn handed his credit card to the sales clerk 

Kira left the shop holding a bag containing her high heels. 

“What are we doing?” she asked. ‘Or rather, what are you doing? 

Austyn kept on walking ahead, hands in his pants pockets. ‘Haven’t you figured it out yet? We’re on a date. 

Kira’s mouth was open in the shape of the letter “0” 

If she opened it any wider, her jaw was going to drop 

A date?
