Alex dropped me off at the office, where he bravely walk me to my office door, then kissed me goodbye in front of everyone. Lip locking, tongue sucking, moan generating kind of kiss.
Damn! He was really marking his territory.
Francois was on leave, but he would certainly hear about this when he got back. I just hope it wasn't going to be too soon.
I didn't want to feel like I was showing off to him, I felt bad about ending it with him already.
"I'll pick you up later okay? Just make sure you're reachable. If not tell Kamaria where you're going okay?" He didn't wait for my answers, as he kissed them away from my mouth. So I just nodded and moaned my yes.
He finally left, exposing me to curious onlookers. "Work people, I'm not your main focus here." I clapped my hands to snap them from their staring and got them to start working again.
"Morning Gary. You can start typing again now." He finally closed his mouth and blushed.
I walked to my office, and start working the day away. It was near lunchtime when Gary came to my office, with gossip tabloids and printouts from various celebrity websites.
"Adriana, I think you should see this." He laid out pictures after pictures of me and Alex having dinner, flirting, and kissing in different positions at several restaurants.
"Fuck! God damn it! Call legal, and get Kamaria to see me now. Shit! I can't believe this is fucking happening!"
That whole afternoon I spent covering my ass, for my business. My face should be nameless, I shouldn't even have a last name. But now I was plastered all over the media. My clients needed anonymity, they couldn't be seen with me.
Mike the head of the Legal department said, that I need to back down right away and let Kamaria be the face of the company. Gary was handing my espresso, I was already opening the balcony door. I light up my cigarette and took a long drag.
Damn it has been a while.
"Adriana, you know I'm good right? I can do this. I can be the face of the company." Kamaria said to me while flipping through the tabloids scattered on my coffee table.
"I know you're good. You're the best Kami. It's just that deep down I still saw you as that little girl that used to follow me around my apartment." I sighed, and take another drag.
"I'll guide you, of course, we have to act fast. Before our clients find out about the tabloids. Gary, you will need to set appointments for Kamaria with each one of them, make a list from the contract that's almost expired and those with the biggest capital. Mike, you set everything in legal regarding Kamaria's new position."
I retreated back to my seat and flipped through my working calendar checking the upcoming schedule.
"Oh and Gary... Kami needs my invites for all the upcoming parties, charity, and also clubs. Damn Kami.. you need to set office next to mine. We need to share Gary before getting you a new assistant. Gary, you need to vet an assistant for Kami. That person will be your responsibility. There, that's it!" I dragged out my last smoke and puff it one last time, then putting it out.
"Any questions?" I asked the three-person in front of me smiling, as I felt like I had everything under control for now. There were no further questions from any of them, as they left my office while Kamaria stayed behind.
"You look, happy sis, I'm happy for you. The pictures were not staged, the way he looked at you, and the way you look at him, it's like something serious is going on between both of you. It's like you are in love with each other." She hugged me then left my office.
I was silent, a bit taken by her words. I knew we looked good together but love?
Damn it!
Then my phone buzzed. It's an incoming call from Alex.
Great, just great.
"Hey Addie, don't look at the tabloids and the sites...."
"Too damn late Alex. I've spent the whole afternoon with legal and my assistant to repair the damage." I slumped back to my chair and sighed.
"We're not even serious Alex. Maybe we should just end this. There's too much at risk here, I'm too fucking tired right now."
"Addie, we're fucking doing this. I thought we agree on the daddy thing that I will take care of you. So, just let me fucking take care of you. Just stay there, I'm picking you up." He didn't wait for my reply, he just hung up on me.
Okay yeah, whatever...
I sipped the new espresso that Gary had just given me, and light my cigarette. I moved to sit outside on the balcony, hugging myself, and puffing out my cigarette.
I was just finishing off on my coffee, and I didn't know how many cigarettes already when Alex showed up.
"Adriana, he's here," Gary informed me, but he was already in my office looking furious.
"Thank you, Gary, please take all my calls and do not disturb me until I'm done." I walked back into my office, I shuddered from the outdoor afternoon cold air.
"Damn it, Addie, it's cold outside and you're wearing a sleeveless top." He took off his jacket and put it on me, his warmth and scent caressed me to the bones making me sighed.
"Thank you," I said to him. But he was not letting me go, he was hugging me. Kissing the top of my head.
"I care about you Adriana, I love you." My body stiffens immediately, he holds my face making me see his eyes.
"I know you feel it too...I'm taking it slow for you, but I can't hide it from the world. I want you, Addie, please baby." He holds me close and kissed me.
This kiss was different, it was slow and sensual he didn't push to open up. He nibbled on my lips until I finally opened my mouth, and he pushed his tongue making his kiss deeper as I moaned his name. He didn't give me his usual smirk. But his hands were caressing my neck and my back. None were sexual, but yet I felt so aroused by his simple touch. Until he finally let me go, and I was left hot and bothered.
"Okay. But we're going as slow as I want." He just nodded at my reply. No smirk, no smug. Just a simple determine nod. Then he was back to kissing me again.
He was pushing me to my table and lifted me up to my desk. And kept on kissing me slowly, and sensually. It felt like hours. Damn, I could do this forever. But then my stomach growls, making him peeled back from me and finally laughed.
"So, that's definitely a turnoff. Sorry I kinda forgot about lunch." I smiled at him. He was looking sexy, his lips were swollen from our kiss, his hair was a sexy mess because of my hands.
"Are you finished with work?" I nodded my reply and started packing up my stuff.
"Okay we're having our lunch at my place just to be safe, and we'll order in."
We're just finishing our very late lunch when there was a knock at his door.
Hmmm...I thought this was a penthouse.
Then his phone buzzed. Right, must've been here already, the concierge probably let the person to the elevator. He looked at his phone and groaned. "Addie baby, wait here okay." He stood up and head for the front door. I surely didn't expect a woman to step into his apartment. So, she's probably the ex. But then she slapped him and called him a bastard.
Alright then, let me just watch where this is going.
"What the hell Alex, you didn't even break up with me. I was mortified, I was still telling my family and friends that we are still a couple then I had to find out from the tabloids?"
Wowww....carry on...I'm listening.
"Liza, we were never a thing. We fucked, we have fun. I never stated any feelings towards you other than sexual feelings. I never called you my anything, I don't have any feelings towards you."
One point for Alex.
"What the hell! You were my plus one at my brother's wedding. It was held on a vineyard, we stayed in the same room, everyone knows this. That should've been a given you dickhead."
One point for Liza.
This was going to take a while.
I started sipping on my coffee. I decided to get up, and brought my coffee to the balcony. I need my cigarette break, he would explain everything later.
It was cold, but I didn't want to interrupt the bickering couple. So I hugged my knees to keep the warmth in. I dragged my cigarette, feeling my body relaxed at the nicotine flows through my body. My mind started wandering, as I took another puff of the cigarette, and blow the smoke out.
I started scrolling through my phone. Gary cc'd me Kamaria's schedule. Everything was looking perfect, we might just dodge the bullet on this one. I just needed to prepare Kamaria with her attitude, she needed to be bossier. She needed to know how to handle all the clients. All of them are bosses, they need to feel important.
I was just finished putting out my second cigarette when he came for me. "Damn it, Addie you really need to stop smoking, If you're doing it outdoors it's too damn cold. Come inside, baby..."
"You're right it's too damn cold. I'm going to take a hot shower, you want to join?" I winked at him, as I walk to his very large shower.
He was behind me in no time, making me giggled. I pushed him to the shower wall and stripped him naked. "Turn on the hot water baby," I told him while I stripped myself naked in front of him, making him groaned.
Then I stepped under the hot shower and moaned as I felt my body regained its warmth. I traced my hands to his abs, then up to his chest. I slowly pulled his head down to me.
"So about Liza..." He was trailing his hand to my back and pulling me closer to him.
"Sshh, later I'm still too cold. I need you to warm me up. Kiss me, Alex." I could feel he was hard already, he was grinding me, kissing and moaning my name already.
"Fuck Addie, I need to get the condoms."
"Bare Alex, go bare, I got my implant, we're good. I want to feel all of you. Unless you don't want to?" I let the question hung.
"Shit! You're going to make me come so fucking hard. Face the wall, give me your sexy ass." He squeezed my ass cheeks then slapped them, as he pinched my nipples, making moaned and cursed loudly.
"Damn it, Addie, you really like me rough don't you? Answer me, love?" I was whimpering under him, I was leaking, begging him to fuck me already.
"Yes Alex, rough. I like it when you're rough." Then he tugged my hair back, bite my shoulder, and pushed himself in me in one thrust. I was slumped to the shower wall, with his other hand gripping my neck tightly.
I came, I climaxed at that very moment clenching him hard inside mine. He growled behind me, staying still, while his dick was twitching inside me. His hand still gripped my neck like a vice, I was shuddering under his hold. I could feel his labored breathing like he was trying to hold himself.
"Fuck Addie, that was so fucking sexy baby." He turned my body to face him and started thrusting himself in and out of me hard and fast, while kissing my mouth hard and rough, just like his thrust in me. I was cursing and moaning at the same time. I was still coming down, but he was picking me up again.
I didn't know how, but I climaxed again, then he followed after a couple of more thrusts. He was sucking and gripping my tits with his other hand. He was emptying himself in me, I could feel him leaking out of me.
"Fuck baby, that was amazing." He stayed in me a bit longer, as he tried to control his breathing. "You are mine love. No one else. Mine Addie." He looked at me, his eyes were still full of lust.
"Yes Alex, yours baby. I'm yours. Now kiss me again, so we can finish our shower." I pulled his head down, as he started giving me his kisses. He pulled himself out of me, and looked at my thighs dripping with his cum.
"Beautiful Addie."
We finished our shower then cuddle up in bed. Where he told me about his ex. "So, you're not mad? Jealous?" He looked at me a bit worried.
"No Alex, I trusted you. You said that you love me. And I think you really meant that. I think...but the main issue is not you. I already told you from the beginning. It's me Alex. I'm not even sure we could move forward after this. So, we're good with all of your exes for now. They shouldn't even be threatened by me." I told him as I inhaled his musky scent and basked in his warmth.
"Adriana, we're still doing this. And I'm telling you to listen to me. We're still taking it slow. So don't think about anything further than where we are right now okay? I don't like it when you're second-guessing yourself. We're good. I fucking love you, okay?"
"Yes, baby..." I snuggled in closer to him and closed my eyes.
