Mafia’s possession:Chapter 62
Her eyes widened in surprise as she continued to listen out of curiosity.
Who is granny Penelope talking to? And who is she referring to?
She doesn't know much about granny Penelope, just like Alexander, she is elusive. And keeps to herself most of the time when they are not together in the kitchen.
"Like I said, I've been keeping watch over her. Did you get the pictures I sent you the last time. Yes, she has grown to be a beautiful woman," Penelope laughed.
Jacqueline was lost, she couldn't make out sense from granny Penelope's conversation. It seems she was having a phone call with someone.
Maybe it a relative. She strained her ears as she paid more attention to their conversation. Oh, Jacqueline, you've reduced yourself to eavesdropping, she thought aloud. She continued to listen.
"Your daughter will be delighted to see you when the time is right," then granny Penelope yawned. "I need to check something in the kitchen, before sleeping. I've had a busy day."
The call ended, before granny Penelope would come out of her room, she decided to leave immediately. As she spun on her heels to leave, her head came in contact with a hard surface and she yelped.
Slowly her eyes went up and she almost stumbled in shock when she saw that it was Alexander.
Alexander grabbed her hand and led her away before Penelope stepped out.
"Let go of me," she pleaded.
He ignored her and dragged her away. She was trying to release her hand from his tight hold but it proved difficult. When he got to the door leading to his room, he pushed it open and dragged her inside.
Alexander slammed the door then turned around her. "Why were you sniffing around?," he barked harshly.
Jacqueline blinked repeatedly. Damn, he caught her this time. How will she get herself out of this without sounding lame?
"I am talking to you Jacqueline. What were you sniffing around her door for?
She swallowed hard as if there was a lump in her throat. "Uhm, nothing really. I wanted to ask her something important. I only stopped to know if it was okay for me to knock on the door. Because I heard voices."
He shoved his hands in his pocket and glared at her. His room was filled with light, so it was easy to observe her. She bit her lips and fumbled with her fingers. Before looking at the floor. As if there was something there to interest her.
"I see. Don't try that again."
She sighed in relief. Her face lit up as he seemed to believe what she said. He drew closer to her and lifted her chin with his finger.
Their eyes locked for a second and she quickly looked away.
"Look at me, my love," Alexander breathed.
He just called her 'my love' she was surprised this was the first time he would be using such endearment on her. Her head snapped up and she saw his grey orbs which had a gentle look.
Alexander wrapped his hands around her waist and drew her closer to him. She placed her hands on his chest. "Alexander," she muttered.
The corners of his eyes crinkled with smiles as she called him by his name. "I love the sound of my name on your beautiful lips. Spend the night with me," he said.
"Can I ask you a question?," Jacqueline said.
"Sure." He was still holding her in his arms and looking at her beautiful face.
"What about my phone? I want it back," she said.
"We need it more," Alexander responded.
Jacqueline breath hitched in her throat. She can't allow him to go through her phone. She felt stupid for not deleting all the messages she had sent to Chain. If he gets to find out, he won't hesitate to deal with her. "What for?"
"I just want to see if I will find anything that will lead me to the imbecile that attacked you. Jacqueline, you almost died there. I can't remain calm like nothing happened.I will not rest until I find the idiot," his commanding tone filled the room.
She pried his hands from her waist. "I understand that you care so much about me which I appreciate. I just want my phone back. It's not like you'd find anything of importance in it. He did not use my phone."
He raised his eyebrow which almost touched his hairline. "He? You said you remembered nothing from the incident."
She rubbed her temple when she realised the mistake she had made. "Uhm, I just remembered."
"You should have said something."
Jacqueline moved to a chair and sat down. "It just flashed through my mind now."
He drew nearer and sat close to her. Then he reached for her hands which he held reassuringly. "You can always count on me. Your safety is my concern."
She knew he meant those words. Here he was trying to protect her and all she could do is to work against him. All thanks to Chain and his scheming games. "Alexander, thank you."
He rubbed her hands again, before his hand drifted to her lips. He rubbed her succulent lips with his thumb. "You're welcome. You know, there are better ways to thank me."
Her face flushed and she batted her eyelid. "What ways," she knew she was falling into his hands.
He moved closer to her and kissed her on her lips. "You know what I mean, Jacqueline. Spend the night with me. I want you in my bed," then he slammed his lips on her. Before he carried her, she sat on his lap facing him.
He reached the zipper on her gown and slid it down. She had no bra on. His eyes darkened with desire when he saw her breasts pushing hard against his chest.
He took a nipple in his mouth while he squeezed the other one. She unbuttoned his shirt and her hands caressed his rock hard chest.
Alexander could barely hold himself anymore. He was engulfed with the burning flames of desire.
