Chapter 6

Edmund looked at Irina coldly. What the fuck is wrong with this woman? Was she testing his patience?

He shook his head slightly. Irina knew he was short tempered. But seriously, he had time for his ex, cheater wife drama.

"Listen, Irina. My fiancée and I don't have time for this," he said and grabbed Alena's wrist.

"Edmund doesn't want a teenager for a wife. He will never take your marriage seriously," Irina said as they were walking away.

The event went so fine. Alena was quiet until it was done. She just spoke when someone asked her and then quiet again.

She was still thinking about Edmund ex. They have been married for five years. Why aren't they together anymore? Was it an arranged marriage too? Does Edmund still love her?

So many questions on her mind right now.

"Alena..." Edmund called her name softly. "What are you thinking? I hope not about Irina?" Edmund said, looking at her.

She sighed and lowered her gaze. He sighed, putting his hands on her cheek and turning her head to meet his gaze.

"Don't mind her. Don't believe anything she just said. We have been married for years but she doesn't know anything about me," he told her looking into her eyes.

"Why aren't you together anymore?" she asked him.

"Because she has been cheating on me for two years. She wanted a divorce so she could leave with this guy. Then she got pregnant and he left her. She came back to me, claiming it was my baby. Of course, it wasn't mine. She had an abortion." He finished as her eyes widened open.

Irina abort her baby?! What kind of woman she was!

In a matter of seconds, he picked her head up and crashed his lip on hers. She was shocked at first and didn't react until she felt him tighten his grip on her sides.

She gasped and started kissing him back. Butterflies erupted in her stomach. She didn't want what exactly was happening right now, but it just felt so right.

He pulled even closer by her waist and begged for entrance. Soon enough, their tongues were fighting for dominance. She felt him lift her dress. His hand was now on her thigh as he pulled her on his lap.

He started kissing her neck. A moan escaped from her mouth and that's when she came back from reality. She pushed him away slowly and started blushing.

She averted her gaze on him and tried to get off his lap, but he didn't let her.

"Where do you think you're going, Alena? I'm not done here," he said, making her blush even more. Was he trying to kill her or what?

The car stopped. Thank God.

"We are already here," she told him, still blushing.

Edmund has a small smile on his lips. "Do you have plans tomorrow?" He ignored her statement.

"Not really. I was planning on going for a run at the BCG," she said, trying to get off from his lap again but she couldn't make it, or should she say, he wouldn't let her.

"Do you usually go there?" 

"Once a week."

"I usually go there. I will be waiting for you there at 8 in the morning. I will tell my driver to pick you up." He pecked her lips.

It was then she realized, they were almost making out inside the car with his driver, who's seated on the driver seat.
