Chapter 66: I'm just going to ask her about the project.
Kian's POV
Project with the new client? Amaris hadn't mentioned anything about...
An image of Amaris blabbing about something while I stared at her flashed in my head and I immediately palmed my forehead. Oh that client....I was too busy staring at her to even listen. Now what am I going to say to him?
"Umm..." I stuttered as I glanced round the room again for anything that was going to help me answer his question without acting suspicious. My gaze landed on the plans Sofia had dropped earlier then it struck me. "...Caleb, can we talk later? I'm kind of busy right now." I pressed my lips in a thin line.
"What?"
"Yeah...I'm supposed to be in a meeting in the next five minutes and I'm meant to look through a few things before then." I lied hoping that he was going to buy it. If there was one thing I knew Caleb hated more than being disturbed, it was disturbing others.
"Oh I see. Okay then I guess we'll talk later. I'm feeling sleepy anyways."
"Oh wow. Talking to me helped make you sleepy. That's good to know." I wrapped my fingers around my chin as a small smile formed on my lips.
"Shut up." He snapped, causing the smile to grow even wider. I was about saying something else when I heard my phone beep indicating that the call had been terminated.
"Not even a goodbye huh?" I let out a small laugh as I glanced at my phone before dropping my phone on my desk. So now I have to make sure I ask Amaris about the project with the client. A smirk formed on my lips. Another reason to see her again.
~~~~~~~~~~
I shut the door behind me letting out a heavy sigh, feeling the weight of the day and the suit I had worn pressing down on my shoulders. For some reason I felt like the tie around my neck was choking me and I immediately took it off.
"I should have just let Sofia do everything." I murmured but deep down I knew that it wasn't right. I was the CEO of Beck Luxury Homes and it was my responsibility to make sure that everything was running smoothly in my company. "...and that also meant wearing myself out." I said as I walked through the hallway in the dim light, heading towards my bedroom, my dress shoes clicking softly against the floor.
I dropped my briefcase by the door, as I briefly forgot about the day's worries the second I stepped into my bedroom. I let out another long sigh as I began undressing and it felt like I had dropped dead weight. Who knew a suit could feel so heavy when you're tired?
My fingers worked on the buttons of my shirt before I peeled it off, letting it fall on the chair before turning on the air conditioner. It took a while for the cold air to circulate but I didn't care especially when it felt like a comforting embrace against my tired skin.
I quickly took off the rest of my clothes before slipping on a pair of joggers that I picked from one of the chairs. I glanced at my closet and I couldn't bring myself to walk all the way there to put on a shirt again. I then plopped on the bed spreading my arms wide as the bed sank beneath my weight. Finally home, away from everyone. I sucked in air allowing the scent of fresh and clean clothes to fill my nostrils and I found myself wishing that it smelled a lot sweeter. Just like Amaris did. Gosh her scent. I wasn't lying when I told her that I loved the way she smelled even though it wasn't entirely why I loved being within three inches whenever I was around her.
"You are insane. You know it's rude to eat the same cupcakes you offered me without my permission right?"
"But you did give me permission. Didn't you? You said you didn't want them so why is a cupcake in your hand right now?"
"I never said I didn't want them. I said what if."
Licking icing off your fingers was supposed to look normal right? But there was nothing normal about how that one singular act made me feel. I found myself gawking at her as my thoughts drifted, images of Amaris kneeling beneath me with her pretty pink mouth wrapped around my cock and my body responded immediately.
"Fuck..." I propped myself up on one elbow and glanced at my cock. "Just thinking about it turns me on." I sighed laying back on the bed, feeling the softness of the bedding against my back. I exhaled again as I shut my eyes welcoming the X-rated mental images in my head. My eyes fluttered open when my lewd thoughts were interrupted by the sharp, insistent ring of my phone. I let out a small groan, my mind stumbling as the ringing pierced through my concentration and my eyes flew wide as I glanced at the screen.
Okay then I guess we'll talk later. Caleb's words rang in my ear. Oh shit. I had forgotten to stop at Caleb's company to ask Amaris about the project with the new client. I muttered an expletive under my breath as I rose from my bed. I stared at the phone in my hand. Amaris just lived a few floors below me....it wouldn't be wrong if I go there now and ask about the project right. I tapped my fingers rhythmically on my thigh as I turned to the shirt in my closet before shifting my gaze to my phone again. 8:32.
"She wouldn't be asleep by now would she?" I moved towards the closet taking the shirt out. I guess it wouldn't hurt to try. Besides I'll only ring her doorbell thrice if she doesn't answer I'll come back up. By the time I had finished making my decision I was already in the elevator heading towards her floor. I couldn't stop my heart from beating frantically. I was going to see Amaris...late at night. Perfectly normal.
"I'm just going to ask her about the project. It's no biggie." An image of Amaris in her nightwear flashed in my head and immediately heat crept up my neck causing the hairs on my skin to stand. Relax Kian. You're just asking her about the project with the client.
The elevator dinged as it reached the ground floor, pulling me out of my thoughts. I stepped out immediately heading towards her door. For a second there I actually thought I was on the wrong floor until I checked the floor number again. "Three right." I moved towards the door. I was about pressing the switch when my hand froze at the door. I then clenched my fist dropping it to my side as I took a deep breath to calm my beating heart before ringing the doorbell. I waited for a while before ringing it again, the sound slicing through the quiet night.
As I waited I decided to look around a bit to see what she had done with the place and I had to admit. I was impressed...really impressed. She hadn't even lived here for up to five months and there were already pretty flowers everywhere. Even up till now I still don't get why women are so obsessed with flowers. Seeing she hadn't opened yet I rang the doorbell again. I had told myself I was going to ring the doorbell only three times but I had to try one last time especially when I just saw the curtains move just now.
Just when I was about leaving I heard a soft click before the door creaked open. I was caught off guard for a moment as my eyes settled on the woman in a soft blue satin camisole and matching shorts, her nightwear flowing gracefully with each breath. Her hair, slightly tousled, framed her face in a way that added to her natural allure. The way the soft light caught her hair and the fabric clung lightly to her curves, giving her an effortlessly alluring appearance. Her bare legs and the gentle shimmer of the satin caught my eye, highlighting her figure that looked both elegant and striking.
A bat slipped from her hand and landed with a loud thud, but it wasn't loud enough to divert my attention from her. I had pictured her in her night dress earlier but that was nothing compared to the real thing. "Kian?" Her brows drew together as she picked up the bat. "What are you doing here?" She asked. I blinked trying to process her question. I was so distracted that I actually forgot why I came here in the first place. Project. Client. Right.
