Chapter 57: Mafia’s possession
There has to be a way around this. Chain had promised her freedom if she succeeded in getting the document for him.
His promises sparked little flames of hope in her. Once all of this is over, she will move to another country with her sister. And start living afresh. As orphans, they have no relatives to turn to for support. The death of her parents in a ghastly auto crash left a void that cannot be filled.
She yawned and stretched her limbs. She was exhausted from the whole incident. All she needed was a good sleep. Then it hit her, she hasn't called her sister and Ariel to check up on them.
Lifting the pillows, she searched the bed for her phone and filled her hands in the edges of the bed. Maybe it might have slipped away.
Hold on a second. Damn! Alexander is with her phone. She palmed her temples trying to soothe the dull ache building up in her head.
How could she have forgotten so soon? It had slipped through her mind. Back at the hospital, she overheard him giving Santos her phone.
There's no way she'll allow him to check her phone. How will she get back her phone without making her look suspicious?
Hurriedly she walked to the door and yanked it open, she almost stumbled upon Alexander. "Mr. Vladimir," With a stunned look on her face, she regained her footing and stepped back.
"Going somewhere?," the arch of his eyebrow raised slightly.
"Uhm, no. I mean, yes," she stammered. Her face had a worried expression. As she stood by the doorway staring at Alexander. His top buttons were undone, exposing his well toned chest. She knew it extends to his chiselled abs. She could still remember how it felt running her hands on his body.
Her throat went dry and she swallowed hard. She couldn't peel her eyes off him.
"Jacqueline, are you alright?," he snapped his fingers in her face.
She jolted from her thoughts. "I.. I am fine," she stuttered.
Alexander leaned on the door frame and his left hand was in his pocket and he gave her a lopsided grin. "You seemed lost. A penny for your thoughts."
She blinked repeatedly and was fidgeting. Coming up close to him always had a way of unnerving her. She took a step back. And Alexander removed his hand from his pocket and stood straight. A glint of amusement danced in his eyes.
He moved closer and slammed the door shut. "You still haven't told me how you were whisked away."
Jacqueline drew back. Her heart kept rising and falling as she tried to get herself together. "I told you already."
"Is that so? I would like to hear it again. There must be some vital clues you left behind while you said it the first time," his cold piercing eyes sent waves of panic through her.
There seemed to be a lump in her throat and so she swallowed hard. If she continues to be silly and jumpy around him, her cover would slip away and she'll end up spilling the truth from being nervous. She shut her eyes shut and tried calming her nerves.
Alexander's hand drifted to her face and his long well manicured fingers grazed her chin lightly. She gasped and her eyes flew open. To meet his grey orbs gazing at her.
He brought his face closer to her. "Have I told you how beautiful you are?," he muttered.
Her tongue darted out and she quickly licked her rosy lips. She couldn't bring herself to say a word. His hand touched her hair and he tucked a loose tendril behind her ear.
Gently, he kissed her lips. And she moaned as he intensified the kiss. Their kiss was like an enchanting dance as they basked in the warm feeling which they created together. His hands were on her waist and he drew her to his chest and he continued to taste her lips. It was like honey. He felt his whole body heating up and her hands were on his chest.
When he broke the kiss, it left them panting for breath. His hands never leave her waist. "You still haven't given me a response about our discussion two days ago."
She blinked and looked away from him. Her mind drifted off to the last discussion they had before she ran off to see Chain. She couldn't make up her mind. Accepting to be with him will lead to eventual heartbreak at the end. If they were in a different scenario, she would love to give him a chance.
Her purpose in his life made it difficult for her to reach a conclusion. His hands held her firmly and their bodies made contact. Her breast grazed his chest and he stiffened. "Don't keep me waiting, Jacqueline. What do you say?"
Her palms became sweaty and in that moment, she wished to be away from him. Entangling herself with him should just be for getting want Chain wants or her sister dies. She hoped that when the truth finally comes out, he will find a place in his heart to forgive her. "Yes, I accept."
His eyes crinkled at the corners with smiles and he claimed her lips. She gave in as he kissed her hungrily, awaking a heated desire in her. Then he brought his lips down to her neck and dropped light feathery kisses around her neck. His tongue trailed up to her earlobe and he bit it gently.
Jacqueline felt her knees weak as he brought his tongue to her lips and she sucked it in. Their kiss deepened.
And in a swift motion, he carried her in his arms bridal style without breaking their kiss. She weighed like a feather. Her hands were slung on his neck and he walked to the bed and dropped her gently.
She rested on her back, breathing hard as she waited for his touch. Standing above her, he winked at her as his hands worked on his button. After removing his shirt, he flung it away.
Her thighs were parted which made her gown slip up, exposing her creaming thighs. His eyes darkened. Fueled by desire, he got down on the bed which dipped from his weight. He couldn't help it anymore, he was going to devour her.
