Chapter 12: Chapter 12
Brushing his hair with his fingers, he felt anxiety building. He did not even know where or how to reach her. he was in deep trouble this time round. In his mind, he felt confused. He did not know what had so possessed him as to utter such nonsense. Calling his assistant into the office, he set him into the task of finding her address as he felt it shouldn’t be so hard after attending such a high-class event. Rubbing his temples, he felt sick and tired. His mind could not help but go to the nightmares that had returned with a ferocity that threatened to break him. They had not come to assault his sleep for quite a while but since seeing Lisa, it was as though the nightmares had been triggered.
For the last two weeks, his nightmares alternated between Lisa hating him and eventually killing him and his hunger for food clouding his mind.
His mind went to all those nights that they had slept on the outside, the cold biting into their bodies as the pangs of hunger took their toll on them. It was that same fateful night that they had been separated, only to see each other ten years later. His mom sick and bonny, while his sister although looking slim, and pretty had dead eyes. The pain of everything they had gone through flashing his mind in one cutting flash.
Inhaling deeply, he felt his mind shaken. There were times he wished he could forget how hard it had been, but how could he. That was why he had been so relentless in his pursuit. Those who had pushed his family into such dire straits had to be punished, yet his mind recognized that he had erred when it came to Lisa. She had been so in love and bright, and he too his emotions had grown for her, regardless of how much he had tried not to love her.
Standing up from his seat, he moved to stand at the window, opening the windows there such that he had a clear view of the city down there. He could spot Starbucks, a coffee spot and several other hotels in a line. Then there was the throng of people moving fast and swiftly all to different directions, and the cars moving slowly to their destination. Looking out, he felt his mind swirl with possibilities of how he could get Lisa to work with him ad convince Mr. Qin that they were together.
His mind went to that night when they had been out on a date. He had wanted to open up about everything, heck he had been ready to stop it all. She had been so pretty in a white dress that showed off her figure while a green blazer with split hands was covering the top of her dress. She had on a pair of light green shoes that matched her blazer and he could not help but wonder who would buy green shoes other than her. yet the combination at that time had had a heady result. He had been transfixed.
The soft light from the chandeliers cascaded upon her, as he ushered her to her seat. He had pre-booked the hotel and therefore they had the privacy they needed. The sparks that flew between them had been phenomenal, and so had been the sexual tension that had soared high between them. That night everything had seemed like foreplay to him. The way she took the berries and popped them into her sweet wet mouth and the way she pulled the twig that held them out.
The way her pulse was beating on her neck, the way her eyes were dreamy and faltered under his scrutiny. By the time they were getting off from the dinner, their hunger for each other had been full to spiraling. On the car, they had kissed with such wanton need that when they reached his apartment it had been simply sheer strength. He had been so aroused that he had not been able to think about anything else at all. On the other hand, her nipples had strained against her dress, indicating that she had not worn a bra, something that sent his blood hot.
Immediately they had gotten to his house, they had kissed with such a wild abandon, seeking to wrap her around him and draw her even closer. He had not even realized how he had locked the door or remembered if he had. Raining kisses all over her consumed him, her touch at the nape of his neck driving him crazy. Hilting her up, she had wrapped her legs strongly around him, as he molded her ass with his strong hands. Everything felt exciting and good, indescribable.
Tossing her on his bed, he struggled to get his clothes off, having to pull his shirt in one jolt of energy, sending the buttons scattering out on the floor. On the other hand, Lisa was trying to work his belt out as she licked her lips something that he found oddly attractive. Her hands instead of getting the belt off were only serving to get him more aroused and in one effort, he took over and shrugged everything, leaving his body to stand naked, like a proud Apollo.
His muscles shone with a sheen of sweat while his jaw ticked with an effort to take thigs slowly. He knew with how feverish he was, he only needed her to touch him and he would spill shamefully like a teen in his first sex experience. Taking steps towards her, he removed the dress with care and folded it against a chair. This was in an effort to keep calm and let things go slowly.
