章 74: Much more

After storming out of her room, Alice made her way to Daniel's office. It's been days since she last hugged him. Indeed, she wanted a hug. She pushed open the door lazily. Daniel was standing in front of his table, with his back facing the door. He was talking on the phone. When he sensed her presence, he turned around & put down his phone. Then, he leaned on his butts by the edge of his table. Sensing her gloomy face, he spoke, "What's wrong?"

Unlike most CEOs, Daniel ditched the usual three-piece suit & that was the reason behind being the Prince Charming. He was wearing a half-sleeved white hoodie that blended his perfect muscles & broad chest.

Without a word, Alice pried his arms open & hugged him tight while burying her face in his chest. A smile appeared on his face as he patted her back, "Is something the matter?"

"No", she murmured with her chest still buried, which gave him a delicious shudder, "I just wanted to hug you."

Daniel immediately slipped his hand on her slender hip, awakening a flight of butterflies in her stomach, "Is it?"

"I guess so", Alice murmured as she looked up with flushed cheeks.

"Let's talk about something else."

Daniel caught her by her waist swapped her around against his desk, pressing her butts against the ledge.

Alice was alarmed, "What are you doing? Someone may come."

"No one comes here without my permission", Daniel leaned on her, "We have time, so let's make the most of it."

"To do what exactly?"

Daniel's lips stretch into an evil smile as he slid his hands on her hips while he moved closer to her. His mouth suddenly pressed against Alice, leaving her dizzy. A gush of magma flowed through her veins, setting her body on fire. She savored the touch of his lips, his large palm around her neck, his body pressed against hers.

Daniel felt every moment was unique as he wanted to capture it & never let it end. He pried into her mouth gently as his tongue twisted around hers. She felt like an ice cube melting in a glass of soda. Daniel felt his blood throbbing in his veins as he felt her heart pounding like a gong against his chest. They were slowly engulfed in the passionate fire. With a blow to his hip, he spread her legs & slid his body between her knees. His body curled against hers, driving them crazy. Her fingers clung to the buckle of his belt, then slipped under his hoodie to touch his soft, velvety skin. The fire was disintegrating with pleasure.

When he finally broke away from hers, his Malachite eyes delved into the depths of her soul & she felt herself fading.

"Hey, Alice! You're driving me crazy. I'm gonna go mad", his thumbs ran along her jawline before straying on the curve of her lips.

"It's not good, not good at all", he shook his head, a strand of black lock christened on his forehead.

'Not good? Do I kiss badly?', Alice couldn't help but think.

On seeing her sudden freaked out expression, Daniel gave her a mocking smile, "Honey, I wasn't talking about your lips! They taste deliciously sweet."

He kept on talking, "But...I want more with you... Much more, & now's not the right time."

That night

Private Villa, Heavenly Estates

Cath was wearing a pink night robe & was watching TV. Her long hair was tied into a ponytail. She was seating on the couch, & deep in thought. Aaron left home in the afternoon & hadn't returned yet. She was really getting worried now.

The door unlocked & brought Cath out of her reverie. She saw Aaron entering the living room as she stood up. He had not noticed her since he was taking off his shoes. The moment he stood up straight, two little arms wrapped them around his waist. That's when he saw Cath burying her head in his chest. She cried out in a low voice, "Why are you so late? I missed you."

He patted his head & a warm feeling spread through his body. Cath looked up with a sad face & a pout. His eyes darted to her tiny pout. They were so inviting that he didn't resist his urge & immediately pressed his lips against hers.

When their lips parted, there was nothing left other than the fires of passion engulfing them.
