Chapter 148 - The Magic Was Only Beginning
As a lawyer that was always on the go, a burger, burrito, or whatever food stand in the corner of the busy street was good enough lunch for her. She just wondered if it was the same with Alex.
"I also think so." He agreed with her as they buckled their seat belts and prepared to leave the premises. "I hope you genuinely enjoyed our first official date." Still amazed at the ability of the woman beside him to impress him with her simple actions.
"I did. Thanks for this night." She knew that it was one of the best nights that she had for a long time. The only time that she was able to laugh like that was with Jacky. She appreciated what Alex was doing to make her feel special.
"Shall we go home?" He started the engine and proceeded on their way to her apartment.
They still talked about the dinner and where they left off with their conversation before leaving the restaurant. They occasionally ended up laughing at their stories, which made their travel seemed fast.
In no time, he was parking in front of her building. "Let me walk you to your apartment." He was exhausted, but he still did not like to end the day.
As soon as they entered the elevator, he pulled her to him and kissed her. He had been longing for this the whole day. Not the kiss on the hand or the peck on her lips. A full passionate kiss that could satiate his need to be with her.
"I think we need to get off this floor." He broke the kiss when he heard someone from behind him clear his throat.
She then realized that the lift\'s door already opened and a man was standing outside, waiting to get in. He was holding the door so that it would not close.
"Hi, Troy." She suddenly felt embarrassed being caught on the elevator making out with her boyfriend.
Although it was the norm nowadays, she was still uncomfortable with it since it had been a while since she had a boyfriend.
"Good evening, Dani." He greeted back as Alex guided Dani into the hallway, and Troy entered the elevator. There was no time for introductions as the door closed on Troy.
"Who was that?" Alex questioned, curiosity getting the best of him.
"Troy." She answered. "He is our neighbor, who lives just a few doors down the hallway from us." She added.
Then, they were finally standing in front of her door. Her neighbor, already forgotten.
She fished for her keys in her bag, and with trembling fingers, she tried to unlock her door. She was unsure why she felt suddenly nervous. Maybe because this time, they were now in a relationship and back in reality.
"Would you like to come in?" She finally asked upon successfully unlocking her doors.
"Yes." He whispered just behind her nape, sending shivers down her spine.
It was a simple word that they both knew meant more than just coming in.
As soon as they set foot inside, he picked up where they left off. He pushed her further into the room, locking the door behind him. His lips locked on hers while his hands glided down her body, cradling her with his.
He was directing her into the living room couch when she remembered that they were not alone. Jacky could walk out on them.
"My room." She uttered between their kisses, pointing to the door at the far end.
Then, they accidentally knocked down the side table, almost toppling down the vase. Luckily, it did not roll straight to the floor.
"Ssshhh! Alex." She chastised him. "Watch where you are going. I don\'t want to wake up Jacky."
She was sure that Jacky was still awake, probably playing with her phone at this time. But she was not ready to see her in this kind of situation.
She dragged him instead to her room and locked it once they were inside. Then, she attacked him, placing her hands around his neck. Letting go of her inhibition as desire took over her.
She entwined her fingers through his hair, pulling his head down to hers as she let her lips teased him with tender kisses. Then, her hands worked on his coat, allowing it dropped on the floor.
Next, she unbuttoned his shirt, which seemed to be not fast enough. Eventually, he helped her finished it in a rush wanting to feel her hands across his body.
"You are driving me crazy." He wanted to dominate the kiss but was holding himself back. He liked the way she was taking charge, reminding him of the girl who had her way with him that night not so long ago, the tigress that was in his bed.
"You drove me crazy a long time ago." She did not realize what she confessed to him as her yearning for fulfillment took over her ability to make a coherent thought.
She slowly stepped towards the bed, pushing him on the edge until he fell on his back on the mattress. Then, she was on top of him, working on removing his pants.
"What about you? Aren\'t you taking off your clothes?" As he laid under her almost naked, except for his underwear.
"You have to wait." Slapping his hands when he tried to pull her clothes off.
"Ok." He answered, retreating his hands away from her and placing them behind his head as he watched and waited for her next move.
Slowly, she grabbed the hem of her dress and gently lifted it off her body. In one swift movement, she let the piece of clothing flew across her room. Now, they were both left in their underwear.
She was not drunk, but she was bold. And she was taking what she wanted. She was tired of letting her fear and her past from ruling her life. When she agreed to be his, she planned to inform him that he was also hers. And this was his notice.
She splayed her hands on his bare shoulders, enjoying the feel of his skin on the palm of her hands. Every movement of her fingers sent him quivering in her touch. She suddenly found herself entranced with the new power she had over him. A feeling that she never knew was possible.
"Do whatever you want?" He told her, relinquishing the control over to her.
"Wait." She grabbed the bag that she dropped by the door and brought it back on the bed, resuming her position.
She pulled the packet inside it. She forgot that Jacky placed several pieces of them inside her bag as it suddenly spilled over the bed.
"Whoah, how many are you carrying in there?" He smiled upon seeing the content of her small bag.
She could not help but laugh too. "This was Jacky\'s doing, but you never know how many we are going to need. Better be prepared" She teased him as she claimed his mouth for a punishing kiss, biting and nibbling on his lips until they reached their limits.
The charade was ending, and to Alex and Dani, the magic was only beginning.
