Chapter six

Noelle Pov

I would be lying if I said that his words didn't make me shiver in delight because they did. When he said that I blushed and looked away from his piercing gaze and played with my fingers because he didn't need to know that. 

William came out with the dinner which smelled wonderful and placed it neatly in the table before us. 

Brielle and I thanked William when he shared our food but Alexander just nodded. My baby and I dug in and complemented William on his wonderful cooking.

"William this is delicious," I said. 

"Well Ms. Young I do try my best," he smirked.

"Well you have to try harder," Brielle said once her mouth was cleared.

William looked amused telling her that his cooking was the best the world but Brielle protested again.

"Elle is the best cook in the whole entire world not even your cooking can compare to hers," She stated as I looked at her in shock.

"Oh really, well we'll just have to see about that in due time now would we," William challenged looking at me before exiting the dinning room.

I mustered up some courage and looked at Alexander who was looking back at me with much intensity. 

"Your staring," I said with the little courage in me.

"Well  when I have a beautiful jewel in my possession why wouldn't I be taking time out to admire her," he said cockily which made my cheeks beat up againg. I looked away and placed my attention on Brielle who was enjoying her dinner telling William that it was good but not as good as mine to which Willam acted angry.

"Darling, it is wrong to ignore  someone who is talking to you, did you know that?" Alexander said as I tried not toklet him affect me in anyway possible.

"It isn't when the person stops talking now is it," I rasied an eyebrow at him at my good comback and mentally patted my back for that. I heard a sniker and looked at William who looks like he's trying to hold in his laughter but is failing miserably as the minutes go by. 

"William, will you be such a good fellow and fetch the dessert for us would you?" Alexander answered. 

"Of course sir, you just engage into a conversation with Ms. Young in the mean time. Brielle would you like to accompany me, i'll make you add the frost any way you like," William suggested. 

Brielle squealed and jumped from her seat but slowed down and whispered an apology when I repramanded her. She then took hold of William's hand and followed him to the direction of the kitchen I suppose leaving Alexander and I alone at the table.

I finished up my dinner and placed my cultury on the plate as it should be as my mom taught me proper ettiquette. I stared at my hands that were twirling in my lap because I was too timid to look at Alexander.

"You know your table manners," Alexander said breaking the silence in the tensed atmosphere. I looked up at him through my lashes as I nod my head in agreement.

"I was thought that its extremly important to have proper etiquette when out with a person, and my dad had a lot of busimess dinner meetings so its just a habit," I answered.

Suddenly he got up and came behind my chair and stooped to my hearing level.

"You know dear your quite the vixen, but I guess I like that. Its another thing that interigates me. The way you speak your mind and go along with it," he stated. I could practically feel his hot breath fanning down my back.

I kept quiet registering what he said trying to find words to say but the truth was I was dumb. I couldn't move or speak with him being in this compramising position. 

"Cat got your tongue?" He asked amused. 

"No," I said after finding my voice. "But childish things doesn't deserve to be answered," I mentally patted my shoulder again with my brilliant response but it was gone quickly when he buried his face a little more in my neck making me stiffen.

"I would love to test the theory darling, but another time," he whispered his hot breath sending shivers down to my legs.

I was glad when he went back to his seat. Just then Brielle entered with William behind her holding slices of cakes. she placed one infront of me as William placed a glass of champaign beside it. I began eating the cake moaning inwardly of how delicious it was. I quickly finished my cake and drinking my champagne ready to go home. I looked at Brielle to see that she was fast asleep at the dinner table. I quickly got up and checked her face and hair for any mess from the cake and found none.

I looked at Alexander while placing Brielle in my arms. "I think its time we head home, its getting pretty late,"I motioned towards Brielle's sleeping form.

"William," he called out and soon enough William arrived and took Brielle from me. He began walking up a flight of stairs then disappeared behind a pillar. I looked back at Alexander confused.

"Why did William bring her upstairs?" I asked already knowing the answer.

"Well I thought that since its almost eleven and its way pass her bedtime that it would be a better idea if you guys stayed the night instead of placing her in a car driving back to your house and waking her up out of her beauty nap," he answered ever so cherry.

"But why stay here?" I asked another dumb question.

"Darling I really don't like repeating my self and you should know that," he said and that made me think before I asked him any other stupid questions.

"So, where am I sleeping then?"

"Come with me," he said and began asending the stairs. I followed behind as he led me to room Brielle was in.

The room was big and to say beautiful would be an understatement. It was amazing everything was in black and white with grey silk in other places. in the center of the room was a big king size bed and on it was a sleeping Brielle. She looked so comfy there. I realized that William changed her into a baby blue theme shirt with matching pajama shorts. 

"William got it a while back before our dinner, he said that he had a felling you'd be staying over, he also got one for you " he said pointing to a set of clothes that were sitting on the edge of the bed. 

"Thank you for dinner and this its really thoughtful of you, good night," I turned to him.

"Good night Noelle," he smirked before closing the door behind him.

I couldnt help but think of what a mystery he was before changing into the set of pj's left for me. I placed my hair into a messy ponytail before slipping under the sheets beside Brielle. At that moment all the events of this evening came crushing in my head one by one. I didn't even realized when I felt asleep but I know that when I did I was smiling.

                              Xxx 

I flushed open my eyes taking in my surroundings. 

This is not my bedroom.

I thought but almost immediately my mind registered to everything's that's happened last night. I mentally smiled to myself like an idiot before looking at the precious jewel beside me. She was still sleeping peacefully and looked at ease. I couldn't possibly wake her so I went to the bathroom which was an opposite door to the bed and gaped at it also. 

How rich was this man?

The bathtub looked like it could hold at least Seven people in it. The walls were of creamed color and everything was breathtaking, I kept feeling very lucky to be in a house like this.

I saw a a little toothbrush beside a big one on the sink and came to a conclusion that William did this. I quickly brushed my teeth and did my morning routine before headung back to the bedroom to see Brielle awaking from her sleep. 

"Good morning angel," I greeted her with a smile and a kiss on her cheek.

"Good morning Elle," she responded back. I quickly brought her to the bathroom to do her business before holding her hand and guiding her down the hall. 

"Elle, did Alex make us have a sleepover yesterday?" Bri asked me.

"Yeah he did, you fell asleep so he said we could stay the night," I amswered

"His house is big and really pretty," she comented.

You have nooo idea. Literally none.

I tried to remeber where to go to reach the dining room we were in yesterday and sucesseded when I saw a flight of stairs came into our view. We went to the kitchen and was greeted by William who was making breakfast.  

"Good morning William," Brielle and I greeted. 

"Oh Miss. Young,  I was waiting for you to come down, Please have a seat breakfast is ready"

We took a seat around the counter and William placed two plates on the counter. This consists of pankcakes with chocolate syrup and some fruits on the side with some orange juice.

We thanked William and began eating before realising something.

"Uhm William, where is Alexander?" I asked out I curiosity. 

"My best guess is his study, thats where he is first thing in the morning, if not there then he might be in his gym" he stated. I nodded and decided that I'd see him after breakfast but that thought was cut short when I felt a presence behind me. 

"Well I see that you all are being well taken care of," booms the voice of Alexander. I froze in my spot on the chair but Brielle looked more than happy to see him as she ran up, to him giving a hug and telling him good morning. 

"Good morning Noelle," he greeted me. "G-Good Morning Alexander," I answered hating how vulnerable  I sounded. 

"You know darling it is rude to speak to someone while your back is turned to them, especially if  that someone has been nothing but good things for you" I knew I could never see but I could feel the smirk on his lips, and he was right he could've left brielle on the road twice and god knows what could have happened to her, he didn't have to invite us over to dinner yestersay, and he didn't  have to let us stay over Last night in this wonderful  house. The least he deserves is my undivided attention so I gave it to him. I spun around in the chair and saw him standing their in all his glory.

It was the first I was seeing him in anything but a suit and man did he look stunning. The white shirt his firm and body perfect showing his rippled muscles and perfect biceps. 

I'm no time he was directly in front of me staring into my eyes intensely. 

"Good morning Alexander" I repeated a little better for him. He nodded with an amusing expression on his goddammit face that I couldn't put together but I knew one thing from all this and it was that He was playing a game and I was not gonna make him win. 

"So Noelle, how'd you sleep?" He asked with a small smile. Then I knew that he was really enjoying watching me squirm.
