The Heiress Nobody Saw Coming (Natalie and Marcus) novel Chapter 392

Marcus carried Natalie back to his bedroom. His room was spacious, with black, white, and gray tones dominating, giving it a cold, minimalist feel.

After placing her on the large bed, he pulled the blanket over her and gently kissed her forehead. "Go to sleep."

Natalie mumbled something and suddenly opened her eyes. Her delicate eyes—clear as day—stared directly at Marcus without blinking.

The next second, she pulled her hands from under the blanket and wrapped them around Marcus' neck. "You're so handsome."

"Huh?" Marcus' lips curled into a smile. "Nat, you're drunk."

"I'm not drunk," Natalie shook her head vigorously. "I can drink a thousand glasses and never get drunk. I'm the best drinker in the Langley family. Ms. Natalie, that's me."

Marcus couldn't help but laugh. He leaned down, playing along with the drunk woman on the bed. "Did Grace or the Langley family often send you out to socialize and drink?"

Natalie shook her head. "No, no one dares make me drink. But I'm pretty impressive, aren't I?"

As she spoke, Natalie wore a proud expression. "They can't outdrink me, and neither can you." You're so handsome. Can I take you home? I have so much money. I can take care of you."

"Hmm, how are you planning to take care of me?"

Natalie made a motion with her hands in the air before hugging his neck again as if afraid he might run off. "I'll get someone to make me a golden cage and lock you inside. Then, I'll take care of your food and drinks every day. Sound good?"

Marcus looked at her serious expression and couldn't stop laughing again. "So, you want to keep me as your pet bird?"

"Pet bird?" Natalie tilted her head. "Aren't you a big eagle?"

A pet bird was small and delicate, but he was big, tall, and fierce. He didn't quite fit the pet bird description.

"Hmm, I'm a big eagle." Marcus played along. "Big eagles are fierce and hard to tame. Do you want to tame me?"

"Yes," Natalie answered without hesitation. She sat up, her beautiful eyes shining as she gazed at Marcus, her entire focus on him.

She scooted closer, reaching out to embrace him, her face rubbing against his chest. "Big eagle, be good and listen carefully. I'll give you treats."

Marcus just stared, feeling tongue-tied.

"Big eagle, listen closely. I'm your owner. My name is Natalie Walker. You belong to me, and I'll protect you."

Natalie continued to "tame" him, her face rubbing against his chest, before looking up at him again. Her finger traced his prominent and sexy Adam's apple.

"How can a big eagle have an Adam's apple?" Natalie's face turned red in confusion. She thought about it for a moment before her face lit up in realization. "Oh, I get it now. The big eagle is a man."

The next second, she kissed his Adam's apple.

Marcus sucked in a sharp breath, feeling a jolt of electricity shoot through his body, spreading from his toes up. It made him feel a delicious kind of tension that he could barely control.

Seeing his reaction, Natalie pulled back a little. "Big eagle, did I hurt you?"

There was a faint, barely perceptible red in Marcus' eyes. He steadied himself and replied, "No, I'm just about to be tamed. Almost there. Do you want to continue?"

Natalie's attention immediately shifted. She nodded firmly, saying, "Yes."

Then, with one strong push, she knocked Marcus onto the bed. In the next moment, she was sitting on top of his waist.

Marcus' temples throbbed. He never imagined that a drunk Natalie would be this bold. But her eyes were so innocent, with no bad intentions at all. She was simply trying to tame the big eagle.

"Let me give you a kiss." Natalie leaned down and kissed Marcus' lips. She even gently bit them.

Marcus didn't move, just stared at her. His large hand naturally went around her waist.
