The Higher Power
Parting his lips, Jordan placed the burning cigarette on his mouth and stood up from his seat before walking towards his shelves containing all his important documents related business, but soon there a light tug on his arm stopped his actions.
It was her, he knew it cause no one other than her had the audacity to enter and exit his cabin without his permission.
His wife, Hattiea.
Or maybe the woman pretending to be his wife?
Jordan's dark eyes landed on the culprit immediately with darkness but as soon as he found her behind him close to him...
He got lost for a moment or so...
The proximity rose slight tension between them.
Raising her fingers up, Hattiea pulled the burning cigarette out from his mouth which was still resting on his lips.
Her delicate fingers brushed his chin and lips softly. Following by the smoke, he released his minty breath in slight awe, her breath taking face was so close to his face.
They both never came so close to one another actually.
Even though it had been quite of time getting married with one another, they minded their boundaries well.
As it was not any marriage of love for them but a marriage full of compromises.
Hattiea's eyes soon travelled up from his lips back to his eyes, which were still staring at her ditching their shame.
"It's dangerous for your health."
Hattiea exclaimed hinting his smoking habit, while looking right into his eyes. Her hazel eyes were blank yet they held millions of emotions.
"So are you!"
Jordan's smoky breath caressed her face. The deepness of his voice solely made Hattiea's heart race million times faster.
It was true... she was dangerous for him. Way too dangerous to handle.
