27. Coffee Shop Blues
A pair of blue eyes regard me with curiosity and a dimpled smile, and I could do nothing but smile as my self esteem drops once more. I must look crazy to this beautiful newcomer.
I shake my head. “No, I have a bit too much on my mind to read at the moment. Came here to take my mind off things but the silence just fills my head with more questions.” Okay, why was I telling this absolutely gorgeous blonde-haired Adonis everything?
As he stood up and walked towards me, I noticed that he was actually quite tall, had long blonde hair that was not tied up and was dressed in all black; the same as me.
“May I join you?” he asks me and I gesture to the chair in front of me. “Please do,” I answer, grateful for the company.
He sits opposite me and I get a whiff of his cologne, one I could not quite place. It wasn’t as sexy and overwhelming as Sebastian’s, but it would definitely remain in your senses.
I lace my fingers underneath my chin and look at him

The CEO's Second Choice 28. Tell Me To Leave, Elena
ElenaI’ve been pacing my bedroom floor since I realised that Sebastian might be home soon. Damnit, why am I so nervous? I did nothing wrong!Staying in my bedroom won’t help, so I decided to go down to the conservatory and take my mind off things. I traded my boots for my fluffy baby blue slippers and opened my door to leave my room, but someone blocked me from doing so.Sebastian had his hand poised to knock on my door when I opened my door and my heart nearly dropped into my stomach. “S-Sebastian! How long have you been standing there?” I ask him as I feel my face flush.But all he does is smile at me. “Not long. May I come in?” he asks me and this causes me to frown. “Sure, I was about to head to the conservatory to wait for you, but I suppose my room is warmer.” I was babbling. Why was I babbling? And why was he smiling at me like that?I stepped back as he entered my room and su
The CEO's Second Choice 29. Complete and Utter Surrender
Sebastian I wait idly as Elena battles her inner voice. What would her answer be? I laid my heart bare for her. Now all I needed was for her to decide if she would allow my feelings for her to grow or wither. She looks up at me, her beautiful blue eyes gleaming with unshed tears and I realise there that Elena wasn’t just pushing me away before, she was pushing away what she was feeling for me. She shakes her head, “I don’t want you to leave. Sebastian. I am done fighting this, I am done with it. Every day I wake up with this ache in my chest that I cannot ease, the ache in me that you can only fill.” She says, repeating my earlier admission to her. “You echoed my feelings perfectly when you said that and I realise now that I am being selfish by telling you to go back to how we were in the past. You have done so much for me, even though I behave like a spoilt brat at times.” This made me smile, a bittersweet one, but a smile nonetheless. She w
The CEO's Second Choice 30. Little Deaths
ElenaOHMYABSOLUTEGODWhat is Sebastian doing to me? Was that…? Did I just have my first orgasm?He comes up from in between my legs and stares down at me, a naughty, fox-like smile on his face. “You taste exquisite,” He says, and he licks his lips, making me feel completely mortified. I bring my hands up to my face so cover my embarrassment as I was laid bare for my husband, but he moves them away. “No,” he says while shaking his head. “You are beautiful, Elena. Do not hide from me. I want to drink you in, every little expression on your face I wish to remember.”Gosh, was he always such a smooth talker?“Good girl,” he says and lays back down on top of me, steadying himself with his palms next to my head and leaning down to kiss me. I tasted myself on his lips and wondered what he found so exquisite in the taste. Then it occurs to me that Sebastian was
The CEO's Second Choice 31. The Morning After
I woke up the following morning in Sebastian’s arms and couldn’t stop the smile spreading across my face. Sebastian was holding me tightly to his chest, his breathing calm and laboured. Last night I had given myself to him completely and without judgement, and I did not regret it one bit.I peered up at him as he slept and my heart felt full; how did I fight what I was feeling up until now? Why did I not just admit it to myself? I snuggle closer into his embrace and breathe out a sigh; then I feel a sudden pressure in my abdomen and know I needed the loo. And I needed it badly.Lifting his arm from my waist, I swung my legs around the bed, but did not expect the sudden pain to shoot up from my nether regions.“Ow!” I cried out as my feet hit the floor and Sebastian immediately sat up in bed, a look of concern crossing his face. “Elena?” he asks, regarding me with worry. I turn around and shake my head. “It’s nothin
The CEO's Second Choice 32. Thoughts On The Future
After our shower, I wrap a towel around myself, and Sebastian grabs one as well. I dry my body and suddenly feel very self conscious while doing this normal thing because his eyes were on me. Willing him to look away, I dry my hair and hear him sigh. “You know, there is no need to sleep in separate rooms any longer,” he muses as he dries himself off and my eyes go to him. It made me think, though; was I ready to sleep in the same room as him, share everything including a bathroom and closet? Heck yes, I was. I smile. “We can arrange for my things to be moved over to your room today, unless there’s a room in this villa with a larger walk-in?” I ask him as a joke but then catch the naughty smile on his face and I raise my eyebrow. “Oh my gosh, there is, isn’t there?” He chuckled. “Of course there is. We can have the staff move things over today, unless you would want to wait for a while?” he asks, a little defeated, but I shake my head. “I am ready for
The CEO's Second Choice 33. Day Out With Sebastian
“If those reports are not on my desk by the time I get to the office, we will have to rethink your position, Agatha.” I listen to Sebastian as his phone rings for the millionth time. They needed him in every aspect of his job as a CEO, and he made it look so easy. I never realised it before, but my husband was an incredibly busy man. And yet, somehow, he always made time for me. Not just today, but before when he would pop home to bicker with me for some unknown reason.The thought alone makes me smile and I move over to his side of the car, straddling him. There was no other way to cuddle in the Phantom because of the middle barrier, so I took advantage of this.Sebastian looks up at me with wide eyes and I lean down to nuzzle him while planting gentle kisses on his neck. He stifled a groan, and I smiled against his skin. “Thank you, I will see you then,” He says ending the call, and I knew I was going to get it.He pushes the button to
The CEO's Second Choice 34. Touchy - Feely Nicholas
Why was he looking at me like that? Annabelle was chatting away, and she was clearly in love, yet his eyes were on me. I offer him a kind smile, then break his gaze and focus on the man sitting opposite me. Sebastian sounds like he was putting out yet another fire at Dumont Enterprises, his voice was low but extremely firm. “I’m so sorry about that, love.” He says as he pockets his phone and looks at me. “Duty calls, I understand.” The more I watch him, the more I fall in love. “Well, that was Irene, my PA. My day isn’t too busy, but I have moved the meeting with The Somersetts to 8am this morning, and that’s,” he says as he looks at his Patek Philippe timepiece, “in half an hour’s time so we had better finish up here if you wish to see your husband in action.” He finishes with a wink that made me giggle. I am feeling all giddy inside and polish off my breakfast. “You are certain you want to spend the day with me, Elena?” Sebastian asks as he
The CEO's Second Choice 35. The Merger and Unwanted Thoughts
Sebastian opens the door leading into the boardroom and I brace myself as my eyes fall on the blonde haired, blue eyed Adonis sitting at the table. He turns his head and looks at my husband with an impassive stare - until his eyes fall on me.Surprise registers on his face as he takes me in, and I could feel the anger bristling from Sebastian while he leads me inside. “I hope you haven’t been waiting long, Elijah, Isla.” He shakes Elijah’s hands as well as Isla’s. I look at Sebastian’s ex love and notice the longing in her eyes as she stared at him.“Not at all, Sebastian. I am sure you wish to get this over with; as am I. So, let us start.” Elijah says in an all business-like voice, not the carefree voice he presented to me in the coffee shop.“Very well. I hope you won’t mind my wife sitting in on this meeting. She wishes to gain some corporate knowledge and what better way to start than with a merger
