A strand of her hair fell over her face which made it difficult for him to take in her features properly. Strange enough, he found that annoying so he brushed the stray hair from her face, baring her face completely to his view. He traced her eyelashes with the tip of his thumb and smiled when she blinked, frowning in the process. Alex found it cute and said so " How can someone look so beautiful and serene while asleep? " He whispered. Before he could stop himself, he placed a light kiss on her forehead. His warm breath fanned her face and it got Ava excited secretly. So much for the secrecy she thought in annoyance right then, her eyes flew open and she giggled. Alex drew back in shock " What the hell?! " He cursed yet the second time that morning. " You were awake the whole time?! " He asked incredulously. " Uh not really " Ava managed to reply, trying hard to keep her face straight. There was a hint of smile pulling at the corners of her lips though. Alex pinned her with a d

She nodded once and Alex attacked her lips as though he had been waiting for this all his life. Ava moved along and together, they explored the beauty hidden in their tongues. Instinctively, Alex's hands roamed up and stopped right below her breasts. It was as if he was waiting for some sort of reaction on Ava's part but she on the other hand, seemed to be lost in the kiss. Alex's hands moved up further and he started to caress her breasts through the thin linen of T-shirt she wore. Ava moaned softly at that. Alex took that as an approval and sneaked a hand under her shirt to grab one soft breast. Ava gasped at the contact and came back to her senses immediately. She staggered back, her face flushed from the kiss. " I... I think I need to go to bed " She said shakily while avoiding making eye contact with him. Alex nodded reluctantly, he didn't want her to leave. Heck, after the kiss they shared, he didn't want to let her out of his sight again. He wanted them to talk about it. He

Getting all the things in her list were more easier than she thought as she happily made her way out of the store. With difficulty, she carried the heavy bags but bumped into someone outside the store. " Oh no! " She whined as her bags fell and the contents scattered on the floor. " I'm so sorry! " She said apologetically and went about picking her things. From her peripheral vision, she saw that the man had bent over to help her. She muttered several Thank Yous, not looking once. They both picked the last apple and Ava finally had the chance to look up at her helper when their hands brushed each other. " Thank you so... " Her words trailed off as she recognized the face immediately. " Hunter? " She asked, shocked as if she couldn't believe her eyes. His own expression was no different from hers " Ava Adams?? " His deep baritone got Ava even more excited. She nodded numerous times and flew into his arms. " Oh My God, Ava! " He said happily, his expression mirroring Ava's own ex

He looked on in boredom as the guy beat around the bush for a while, not getting straight to the point immediately. " Lamar " He finally cut in when he couldn't bear with it anymore. " Sir? " Lamar replied with a flushed face because he knew Alex understood what he was into. " Can you go straight to the point please? Thank you " Alex said calmly and relaxed back in his chair as he studied Lamar calmly. Lamar took a deep breath and started talking " Miss Adams went to do grocery shopping "" Okay thank you, you may go now " Alex dismissed him with a wave of his hand. He looked up after he noticed that Lamar didn't make any attempt to leave. " Anything else, Lamar! " Alex asked with a raise of his eyebrows. " Uh, I think you need to see this " Lamar replied quickly and handed some photos to Alex when he extended his hand for the photos to be passed to him. A minute later, Black saw rage slowly crept up from within Alex. His jaw was clenched and he clutched the photos in his large

" You go to work everyday though, no day is is an exception " She said thoughtfully, eyeing him from her long lashes. " And what is it to you if I go to work or not? Last time I checked, it's my fucking company and I can fucking do whatever I want with it " He lashed out. " Exactly! " She replied in the same tone, matching his energy. " Every normal human should work in 5 working days so I wouldn't dare question you for staying home on a Saturday, you need all the rest you can get " She added. Alex's eyebrows creased in a frown " Are you implying that I'm not normal? " He asked, somewhat offended by what she said. " Oh no! " Ava exclaimed dramatically and clamped her hands on her mouth as if doing that would prevent her from uttering more offensive words. " I didn't say that, did I? "Alex opened his mouth to reply but the sound of a phone ringing stopped him. At first, he thought it was his but relaxed when the vibration sound wasn't coming from his pockets. Then he looked up to

Talking about his wife openly was a very sore subject for Jack. He nodded anyway " Yeah " and glanced down at his son who lacked his mother's love. Another look of pain crossed over his features. On noticing the thick and uncomfortable silence, Ava quickly thought of what to do to clear the air and an idea came to her finally. She made a funny face at Liam and the latter bursted into an uncontrollable laughter, startling the two men. They both looked at him and followed his gaze to see Ava making funny faces at him. They smiled, but for different reasons. While Jack's smile was a wistful one couple with gratitude that at least his son had someone like Ava in his life, Alex smiled, thinking about how great of a mom she would be. He could picture her tending to her kids lovingly... His kids. He stopped, after realizing where his thoughts were leading. He slapped himself mentally. Holy shit, where had that come from? His kids?? " No fucking way " He thought he said it in his mind but d

Maggie seemed to notice and she withdrew from the hug " Hush now, I don't wanna see a gloomy face behind this little makeover, hmm? "Ava nodded tearfully and took a deep breath to calm her racing heart. " That longtime friend of yours is your data tonight, right? " Maggie asked and her eyes twinkled, which made her look younger than her years and Ava told her so. " Wow, look at you getting all excited like Cinderella. That youthful look makes you look stunning yourself " She teased Maggie blushed " Ow stop making this old lady blush! " And she nudged Ava playfully with her arm. " We both know it's true " She said thoughtfully. Deciding that the woman had had enough teasing for the night, she answered her previous question " Yes, he wants us to go have dinner and catch up on old times "Maggie whistled " You go out there and have fun baby girl, go for it! " She cheered on Ava. Ava laughed and her attention drifted to the long stairs like she was waiting for someone to show up. M

But before he could take things further by placing his hands on her breasts like she wanted, her phone rang and they jumped apart like kids who were caught in the act. With a flushed face and trembling hands, she hit the receiver button. " Hel... Hello? " She said into the speaker, panting softly. " Oh! Hunter, I'll be out in a minute " and she hung up. To Alex, she said quietly " Uh... My date is here so I got to go now " Alex slowly released her and backed some steps away while he nodded his head " Okay okay, I didn't know you had a date " He muttered rather senselessly. Ava refused the urge to roll her eyes and just copied his action by nodding her head too " Yeah, I do have a date and he's here "" Enjoy your date " He said rather stiffly and brushed past her. Ava heard the sound of doors closing and sighed. Why had he acted that way? He wasn't jealous of her friend, was he? Putting the whole thing at the back of her mind after she promised to think about it later, she dec
