Christian
Colton rushes to me as soon as I reach the party area.
"Master, Madam has left the venue just now. I tried to stop her but she didn't listen to me," Colton says.
"Left?"
Shocked enough I also rush outside the venue. She is climbing down the stairs, almost running. What happened to her suddenly?
"Ivanna!" I call her aloud but she doesn't stop.
It forces me to chase her. "Iv, wait"
It seems like she's deliberately ignoring me. I hope she's fine.
"Iv
IvannaI feel the cold breeze touching all over my body and thus I realise I'm only in my lingerie now. I have squeezed my eyes shut when he parts me away, my arms doing their futile job to cover my upper body.He touches my chin and lifts my face as my eyelids automatically part to look into his intoxicating deep eyes. He keeps looking into my eyes without even blinking as if he's trying to look for a bit of resistance. But there's no resistance I can show to him. Right now, I just want him. Only him.I yank his collar and pull him closer to me, breathing heavily."Kiss me", I pant. "Kiss me hard"He slams me against the wall again
IvannaI feel the most familiar and softest touch across my cheek along with the morning sun plunging on me."Good morning, beautiful," Christian whispers near my ear as his warm breath brushes against my skin.My lips twitch into a smile as I feel sharp pain down there. The pleasure I consumed last night is still raw and fresh inside me. I open my eyes, discovering the handsome face closer to me.Our bodies are still tangled under the sheets.Reality strikes me as my smile fades away.The flashes of last night hit my head, making me realise what the fuck we have done
Ivanna A week. A damn week passed and it doesn't feel like air passing by. It feels like a minute passing like a year. For the first two days, I was disturbed and guilty for uttering such hurtful things to him. I didn't know what I was doing. I knew what kind of man he was. He was anything but not someone who forces himself on a woman. But I literally hit that point of him. What did I want when I was accusing him? Maybe, I wanted him to get tired of me. I wanted him to get annoyed and stop caring about me. I wanted him to hurt me back for hurting him. I didn't want to fill the voids between us. Because deep down, I was scared to accept how far we have come. I was scared to admit that I was falling for him when I was already in love with someone else. I was going crazy after him who did so many wrong things to my family. I just wanted to stop myself. At any cost. However, I didn't know it would be so hard. So damn hard.
Ivanna As I fight with my tears to hold back, I hear the sound of the door. What is Mrs Fisher doing at this hour? I look at the door when it opens, causing shivers all over me. Christian comes inside, taking lazy steps. He looks burnt out and tired. The moment I realise he's back, a small smile curves on my face. His eyes land on me, swollen and red as if he hasn't slept for days. Our eyes meet, leaving me dumbfounded— I don't know how to speak and how to react. He doesn't smile, nor does he look happy to see me. He's still angry and hurt. I can feel that from the way he gazes at me. There's nothing but silence.
ChristianIvanna peeked at me with her big blue eyes and rubbed my cheek with her thumb softly."You're tired, no?""I was. Not anymore," I chuckle, running my fingers across her hair."You should sleep now""I want to watch you now," I mutter.She says nothing and looks down at my chest. Her fingers crawl over my skin as if she's outlining each detail of me."Where were you?" She asks in a low tone."I had been to Washington. There was some pending work"
IvannaThe rays of the morning sun tease me as I squirm on the bed with a slight soreness. I love this feeling in the morning. It's not like I didn't love it that morning— I did but messed up the entire thing.I open my eyes with a wide smile to find Christian's eyes on me. To my surprise, he is half-laid next to me, darting his eyes on the phone.Seriously!Wasn't he staring at me that morning until I woke up? Or was it only for the first time? Now, I'll have to get used to it, huh? I frown, gritting my teeth at him. He doesn't even realise that I have woken up. I move on the bed deliberately to grab his attention.And it work
ChristianI haven't expect her to be here so soon. I don't even know if she heard me but she knows I was talking to Richard. Heck! I hope she doesn't go furious after overhearing me.When I scan her reaction well, it tells a different story. I walk towards her and get closer as she curiously stares at me."Yes," I say.She parts her lips to speak something and again seals them for a while."What— what was he saying?" She sounds desperate, still, calm which I didn't expect. She didn't hear anything otherwise, she would have screwed me until now.I let out a sigh.
Kane "We need to divide the staff in a few corps for further progress. There should be a change in the entire system", I say, making a column on the processor. "It's gonna be a lengthy process, Sir", Nicole says from behind. "But we don't have an option left. Christian is finally acting like a boss— leaving for anywhere anytime and dumping work on the employees. So, basically, the CEO is a family man now and he can't be the same as before", I can't help laughing. "That's true. I can't believe he used to leave work only for six hours of sleep", Nicole adds. "Better for you also, right?"
