Chapter 25: Chapter 25

"You left the door open again, so I let myself in when I knocked and you didn't answer." Sebastian answered me in his velvety, deep voice.

I gasped as I face palmed my forehead with my free hand, "God, how do I keep forgetting to lock the door?!"

He chuckled, the sound making a delightful shiver run through me and making me watch him through the mirror. He looked amused as he replied, "Well, it's a good thing that I'm now going to be sleeping here with you. So I'll make sure that the door is locked."

I picked up my red lipstick from the dressing mirror as I nodded, "Yeah, it's a great thing."

I placed the lipstick's head on the edge of my upper lip and pulled it towards the end, but I felt Sebastian's hot gaze on me that I had to look at him through the mirror. Our gaze met as I saw desire and want swirling in his captivating, dark eyes. They flickered down to my lips as I moved the lipstick to the bottom of my lip and pulled it towards the end. I felt butterflies flutter in my tummy in arousal at being desired like that. The tension between us was heavy as he watched my red lips while I applied the red lipstick.

By the time that I was done, his eyes were reddish as his wolf came to the surface, I watched through the mirror as he closed his eyes and took a deep breath. I placed the lipstick on the dresser and stood up. I turned around to face my mate with a concerned look on my face as I stepped closer to him, "Sebastian, are you okay?"

He nodded with his eyes still closed and he pinched his temple with two fingers. His voice was low, husky and s*xy as he breathed out, "I'm fine, I just need to calm down my wolf."

"Okay." I replied as I watched him, cautiously, still feeling concerned, especially since his wolf could take over and forcefully mark me.

Sebastian drew in a large breath and let it out a few times before opening his eyes again. Our eyes clashed and I saw that they were back to their dark shade. He stood up and strode over to me as his lips twitched up into a smile, "Let's go, it's almost time."

"Okay." I replied with a wide smile on my face as he took my hand in his and interlaced our fingers. We made our way to the bedroom's door and then the apartment's door.

Thirty minutes later, Sebastian parked his Rolls Royce in the parking lot of the arena where the car racing was going to take place. He opened his door and glanced over at me as he climbed out, "Have you ever been car racing before, cupcake?"

I shook my head as I pushed my door open too, "No, never."

I climbed out too and he walked around the car to meet me as an amused expression showed on his face, "Well, there's no surprise there."

A smile touched my lips as he took my hand in his to interlace our fingers. I glanced at him with my brows raised up in question, "Do I look that much of a good girl?"

He looked over at me as he chuckled in his velvety deep voice that sent delightful shivers through me, "Yeah, very much like a goody two shoes, but I love that you're like this. It makes you even hotter and your personality compliments mine that way."

My face blushed at his compliment and I nodded as my smile stretched wider, "I'm glad that you see me that way and I think that you're very hot too."

I said the last part quietly as he led me towards a white door that he pulled open with his free hand. His lips twitched up into a smile as he looked even more amused, "You're so cute when you blush, cupcake."

I let out a small laugh, feeling glad that he didn't think that I was weird for blushing so much and at such little things. I realized that the door led to a large staircase that had lights on the bars which led down to the underground. He tugged me towards it and we started walking down the stairs. I felt shocked as I glanced over at him, "Whoa! It's actually an underground car race?"

He raised one brow in question as a deep chuckle left his lips, "What did you think when I told you that I was taking you to an underground car race?"

"I thought that the underground was just like a figure of speech and that we were going to an ordinary car race, but why is it done underground?" I said with a curious look on my face.

"Because it's frowned upon by the government since we drift and do car stunts that are very dangerous, but I already helped the owner get a permit from the government to do it."

"That means that you're close with the owner? And wait, if they have a permit from the government then why is it still underground?"

Sebastian chuckled again in his s*xy deep voice, "Curious Kat, I love when you ask me questions, it's smart and s*xy at the same time."

I felt my face heat up even more and felt speechless, I didn't know how to reply to that, but he saved me from answering when he added, "Yeah, I know the owner and it's still underground because it's really dangerous and people enjoy it more in the underground. The whole mysterious feel of it just makes people want to come."

"Ahh, I see. That's a good marketing tactic." I commented as we reached the end of the stairs and came to a brown door.

"Yeah, it is." He replied just as he pulled the door open before I could and we walked through it to a very large arena.

It was almost as if we were above ground, people around us were cheering on their seats while some were standing as they watched cars race roughly doing stunts. He glanced at me as he said, "Let's go to the upper seats so that we can watch everything."

"Okay, let's go." I replied and we climbed the short steps that led to the upper part of the seats.

I spotted two empty seats close together and pointed at them as I looked over at him, "Those are empty."

"Yeah, we can sit there." He replied as we made our way to the seats.
