Chapter thirty seven
Jemima's POV
As the sun fell from the curtains onto my face, I slowly opened my eyes and looked at my side. There he was, the centre of my universe sleeping peacefully.I slowly dropped his arm from my waist and stood from the bed when he pulled me right back in.He trapped me in his arms that I couldn't move. He bit my earlobe, his hand caressing my inner thighs sending wild tremors all over my body."Where do you think you are going?"
"I..h..a..v..e..a.m..e..e.t.i.n.g.."
"But I want you..."
"DRAKE I will get late and my boss will kill me..."He flipped me over in a millisecond and pulled his boxers to his knees.
"I am sorry about Cardi and about everything I have put you through." His eyes burnt into mine with such raw emotions that it ripped through me.
.
"It's okay..."
He rewarded me with his mouth, consuming me like fire. The kiss went on, our lips moving in perfect sync and the kiss became more passionate by the second.His lips were so gentle and warm on mine .His kiss grew greedy as he slid his hand under the t-shirt I was wearing. Damn!I was not wearing any panties.
"This will be fast, trust me..." He assured and I nodded. Just looking at his handsome face made me wet. His body pressed down on me, his elbows and his hands on either side of my face."This will end soon. Very soon I will make things right."
"Okay." I m*aned.Then what I had been eagerly waiting for happened, we had a quick s*x.
"That was quick and awesome..." He buried his face on my neck as we panted together waiting for our breaths to even.My heart was beating so loud that I was afraid it was going to explode. Just having him there on top me made me think twice about going to the office. Who cares about work when you have such a handsome god beside you?We can make org*sms all day and stay hungry for all I care. I just want him, my heart only beats for him, my arms only yearn for him.My Drake, my universe.
"I think we better get ready or else we might be tempted to stay in bed all day..." He chuckled and slid off me.He pulled his boxers up his waist and turned to look at me.
"I wish we always be this happy Jemima. No Cardi, no arguments because you make me happy."
"Come," He took my hand, "Let's shower..." He led me out of bed and into the bathroom.My heart was singing with pure joy since I left his apartment. No one or anything was gonna ruin my mood. Neither the sky above or the waters below.
Luckily the presentation went on well and for once since I started working here my boss smiled at me.I was busy arranging the files as the board of directors were leaving when I noticed Jordan was walking towards me."Where is the party?" He asked, standing beside me.
"What?" I jumped, surprised.
"Your dress code."
"It Friday, so it's weekend."
"You look so beautiful Jemima..." He whispered into my ear and I almost flinched.
"Thanks..." Drake had suggested I wear a black strapless jumpsuit with an oversight that he bought for me yesterday.I picked up the files ready to leave when he grabbed my arm."I don't bite, why do you look like you want to run?"
I took a deep breath and turned to look at him, "I am not running. I just have a lot of paperwork to finish...""I hope John isn't overworking you or he will get it from me."There was this deep emotion in his liquid brown eyes that I couldn't quite fathom.
"Sir John is good..."
"So when can we have coffee?"
"Maybe on Monday..." I stammered.
"I will be waiting..." He came so close to me that I could feel his minty breath on my cheeks. I wanted to pull back but I couldn't move.
"Have a lovely day..." He kissed me on the cheek and left the conference room. I didn't know what to feel or how to react. I was dumbstruck.I placed my hand on my cheek still unable to process what had just happened.
