Coolest Girl in Town (Elise and Alexander) novel Chapter 1012

On a lazy afternoon, Zephyr was done with his shower and strolled to the pool while wearing his bathrobe. There, he donned a face mask and lay down in the sun with a facial mask at the manor to Griffith Manor's right. A few moments later, he dozed off, but in his groggy state, he vaguely saw a silhouette approaching him. When he opened his eyes, he first saw Narissa's face, which frightened him so much that he sat bolt upright. "Jeez! What are you doing here?"

"I'm here to see you." Narissa smiled faintly and spoke with a soft voice.

In the meantime, he found it strange at the sight of her appearance because she usually wore a tomboyish outfit. At that moment, her hair cascaded down her shoulder, and she looked like a princess, unlike her usual self. Soon, he gulped and asked her what she would do, his cheeks getting warm. "So, why are you here?"

"Come here."

"What?"

"Come closer so that you can hear me!" Narissa winked at Zephyr as if trying to put him under her spell. When the man did as he was told and stopped before her, she coquettishly said, "Closer."

Despite his lack of courage to look her in the eyes, he leaned closer to her as instructed. Before he could stand still, she suddenly pecked his cheek and quickly backed away. "What is the meaning of that?" He froze, holding his breath nervously.

"Don't you get it? Do you want to be my boyfriend?" Narissa whispered in Zephyr's ear and made him gulp again while he hesitated to reply.

"You only have one chance, so if you miss it, you can forget about it. Hmph!"

"Wait! Wait! Yes! I said yes!" He quickly seized her hand when she was about to leave in a fit of pique, laughing in a silly manner. Suddenly, an eagle appeared out of nowhere in the sky and swooped down at him, clawing at his face. "Get away from me!" He swung his arms wildly until he opened his eyes. Then, he realized the eagle that he saw never really appeared, but his palm had a sparrow in it. So, it was all a dream, wasn't it? He sat up straight and heaved a sigh of relief, smiling at the thought of the kiss in his dream.

"So, this is what you've been busy with?" A voice came from one of the trees in the yard.

When Zephyr looked in the direction of where the voice came from, he saw Narissa sitting on the tree with one leg casually dangling from the branch. "Wow. The fact that you had the strength to climb the tree as I did suggests you're close to full recovery," he replied humorously.

"You're not the only one who can do that." She stood up and squinted, sniggering. "Anyway, mind your own business, loser. What kind of dirty dream are you having that you're trying to do that sparrow harm?" In fact, she was going to look for Jamie, but instead, she got the directions mixed up and ended up running into Zephyr, whom she saw was having some shut-eye.

He chuckled sinisterly. "What if I told you I dreamed about you? Was it a dirty dream?" Little did Narissa know that he was actually telling the truth.

"You must be pretty gutsy to do that, then. Have you forgotten about my nickname? You'll pay the price heavily for your dirty thoughts about me," she threatened him, her eyes lighting up.

"You seem to like the nickname I gave you." Zephyr curled his lips upward.
