"I think I like you more..."

My jaw dropped. I felt like all of a sudden, butterflies were tickling my stomach right now.

"Because you act maturely but inside, you are childish." He chortled and continued eating.

I felt like someone had thrown me a bucket of ice with water. My ears panted with his words he just spotted. I processed his words on my head and snapped back to dart him a glare. This man... This freaking man is such an...

"Asshole," I said, couldn't help but retort with a remark.

Sebastian stopped in the mid-way and glanced at me with amusement in his eyes. "Feisty as always, Ms. Merrywheather."

I squinted my eyes at him and took the fork to stab the meat whilst looking at him. I don't care if he would fire me at this moment. The mere fact that he insulted what I just nurtured was making my blood boiled.

"If looks could kill, you'll be dead meat right now."

Sir Sebastian just chuckled at my remark. "Why, yes, but cer

    *"She is really beautiful.""She is an exquisite one.""'Just need to make sure no one's guarding her fences.""Everything is settled. You do not have to worry."*I instantly shut my eyes open and immediately got up in my bed. I blinked my eyes so many times and checked that it was almost six in the morning.I had done all my routine and dressed up in my usual office suit. I also called the receptionist to have our breakfast in the hotel suite. Sir Sebastian liked to enjoy his breakfast in his room rather than going downstairs to go to the dining hall.My heart almost jumped just by seeing him on his suit and his hair was already on sleek. He was sitting on a buttoned sofa that embodies style. His laptop was on the coffee table as well as his coffee. I smiled a little when I saw him he was wearing the suit I prepared for him last night.Unfair that he looked so goddamn hot right now. I mentally shook my head.Sir Sebastian drop

    A pretty relaxing evening as the boat is pacing slowly with the great atmosphere and cool ambiance. Thai and international dishes and drinks were served along with living music. It was such a great view of seeing the night city while munching some sumptuous buffet-style food. Thai dancers were swaying their hips and waving their hands while going along with the live music."Booking here was not a waste of time. Isn't that right?" Smiling, I turned at Sebastian who was looking at me intently and looking like a grumpy one. My smile slowly died just by seeing his mood right now. I lowered down my gaze to see that he emptied that food I got for him. Suddenly, I felt like there was a lump in my throat. "Um... Is food to your liking, sir?" I asked, hesitant.My heart was racing wildly. His blue orbs were incredibly staring at me. Like he was scrutinizing my soul. I g

    "H-Here's your c-coffee, Sir Sebastian," I said, stammering. My hands were fidgeting a little while I was holding the saucer and the cup."Hmm." His brows furrowed, looking at my hand then raised a glance at me. Shit... Those ocean blue eyes right now were making a judgment against me. I knew it. I should have stayed away and dared not to look at his eyes. "Are you alright, Cejay?""H-Huh? Y-Yeah. I am." Lies. I am not okay like right now. I am trying to be civilized with him even though the humiliation from last night got the better of me. It was making my heart go wild every time I lay my eyes on him.I felt like he was laughing at me. I knew that this was the best situation to get back on me after what I was doing with him right now. He has all the cards to make me feel humiliated.

    "Meetings are all finished! Congratulations to us, Sir Sebastian!" I said cheerfully as I clapped my hands.He didn't utter a response but his eyes were glued on the outside of the road. I frowned and rolled my eyes. As always, why would I even say that? He never made a reply every time I would say those words cheerfully.I huffed and nudged him with my elbow."What?" he said but his tone didn't sound snapping which is a good thing."Loosen up a little, Sir Sebastian." I rolled my eyes.He sighed. "Just don't feel well." I heard him murmuring so I snapped my head at him. He said what?Worried, I immediately placed my hand on his forehead which surprised him. "Are you having a feve

    "Here's your coffee, Sir Sebastian," I said and placed down the saucer on the bedside table.He just nodded and checked something on his laptop before his ocean blue eyes darted on me. "Is there anything I can help you with, Cejay?" he asked not in an irritated tone but an earnest sense of tone when he noticed I didn't leave immediately.I took a deep breath before I spoke. "How do you rate the things we followed in tonight's itinerary, sir?" I said, hopeful. I am hoping for good feedback. It seemed that he enjoyed eating and strolling around the Yaowarat Road a while ago.He arched his eyebrow and stayed silent. I narrowed my eyes then crossed my arms over my chest when after a minute he hadn't made a response."Sebastian, feedback." I rolled my eyes and grinned mentall

    We have finally arrived at Ko Samet, one of the eastern seaboard islands in Thailand. I saw the white sandy beach. We survived taking a bus from Ekkamai Station and sat our asses for three to four hours before we reached the pier. We spent another hour in the Thai boat to take us to the island. By 10 AM, we also managed to check-in at Silver Sand Hotel.I was stunned that the room chosen by Sir Sebastian is supposed to be for four people but it has two double beds—in one freaking room! He didn't choose a hotel suite which can have two separate rooms! He chose two double beds in the same fucking heck room!"You seemed dissatisfied with the room I picked, Cejay."I snapped back and turned at him. I cracked a smile that hangs on my lips for quite a while. "N-No, sir. I-I am just surprised that..." I paused as I d

    I asked Sir Sebastian to go to the restaurant called The Canteen Koh Samet for they served English breakfast there. After that, we decided to stroll around the beach.I left my flip-flop and ran towards the lowest part of the sea. The sea breeze was making my hair fly along with its gentle blow. Along the horizon of the sea were ships that are sailing."I should have worn a bikini," I voiced out all of a sudden because of how the gentle blue water was inviting me to accept their invitation to swim in it.I pivoted to check Sir Sebastian if he was still following me. He was sitting in the sand while watching me with his stoic expression. I waved at him. That surprised him but then he plastered a gentle small smile.Not bad.He

    I gritted my teeth in annoyance just from what she just stated. I slightly trembled from wanting to slap this bitch.What the fuck did she say? Does she want me to punch that annoying face of hers? She just called me a cheap woman. The audacity... I wanted to laugh mockingly."My, my." It was Mr. Cilantro and his joyful voice. He put his hand on her shoulder. "My dearest, she's Sebastian's personal assistant. Do not be rude.""Ah." She scrutinized me up and down. The way she scrutinized me was disgusting. "'Kay." Then she scoffed and crossed her arms over her chest.Mr. Cilantro stretched an apologetic smile to me. "On behalf of my daughter, Kiana, I would like to apologize for her behavior. She didn't mean that.""Dad!" Her

    My eyes widened at the surprised kiss he just gave. I did not protest but found myself kissing him back. It was hard to fight the urge to stop myself from my attraction to this man.But if he was going to ask if I could reciprocate his feelings, I couldn't. I was still doubting it. I felt like I couldn't meet his expectations and that I did not deserve to be paid attention by this man."Sebastian..." A moan escaped from my lips when his lips that bruised mine traveled down to kiss my jaw down to my neck. I clung to him and kept grinding myself when I knew that I was straddling him at this moment. "Cejay..." he said dreamily as he licked, nipped, and nibbled my skin, making me lean back to give him full access to my neck.I couldn't stop myself from desiring this man. Not only that I know that he had longed to have me, but I had been lusting over him ever since I knew that I was attracted to this man. Just this once... I wanted to give myself to someone I could put my trust in from n

    "Tell me you're joking..." I was still in disbelief since silence meant yes. He was neither agreeing nor deflecting it, but I assumed he did. "Sebastian...?"Sebastian sighed and laid his head on my chest again, making me uncomfortable. But I did not push him away. Suddenly, he looked adorable to my eyes, knowing how he could be like a puppy, waggling his tail to his master."Um... It's fine if you are not going to tell." I meant, why would I force him to say anything about it? I must respect his wishes. It was important that I knew his boundaries despite the curiosity that was eating me to the core.When he took my hand to intertwine with mine, I almost barked, but he looked up into my eyes. "No. I am going to tell you. I promise to myself that once you are here on our island, I am going, to be honest with you as much as possible."I almost smiled wryly. He kept insisting that I owned this island, too, when that was not the case. He really assumed that. I really wanted to correct it,

    I asked while he was carefully putting me down. My eyes widened in admiration, leaving him alone on his ground as I approached them. Oh my, my favorite flower..."Do you like them?"My fingertips touched them before I mindlessly nodded. "Y-Yes..." I was almost rendered speechless since I was surrounded by tropical hibiscus. I was so fascinated that I did not want to leave my eyes on them.I snapped back when in my peripheral vision, I caught Sebastian taking out his phone and taking a photo of me. "Sebastian..." I frowned upon seeing that he was taking another photo of me. This man... He was really such a creep. Sebastian softened and kept his phone in the pocket of his trousers. "Sorry. I just want to cherish this moment with you. Now that you have seen one of my surprises that is meant only for you." With that, he tucked a few strands of my hair behind my ear. "God... You are so beautiful, Cejay."My heart raced rapidly from his words. The way his tone sounded that he admired me s

    I quietly went to the balcony, fully clothed with a huge frown sitting on my face. I met Sebastian there whose attention was on the sea."You're here now, love." His eyes were sparkling when he saw me."As if I have a choice..." I said bitterly.He grinned and offered his hand. "I shall tour you around. I want you to familiarize yourself with our private island." His voice sounded gentle as he looked like the prince charming that I had been waiting for.I only stared at his open palm before I walked past him. "Tour me now," I commanded him. I don't care now if he was my boss or not.The point was I was with a fucking creep and I did not know how to get away from him since I was living under the same roof with him.I flinched when Sebastian held my hand without a warning. "L-Let go!" I was flustering right now when he was smiling from ear to ear. "Sebastian!" This damn freaking man... Why couldn't he just leave me alone? "This is harassment!" I said through gritted teeth when he did no

    I was quietly washing the dishes. Until now, his confession kept ringing inside my head.I managed to have Sebastian distance himself from me. Thank goodness that he listened this time.With the confession he revealed, I felt like I did not know how to face him. I had been questioning myself.Of all the women he had to fall in love with, why me? I was an uninteresting individual. How come he had to like and love me?When I was finished, I sneaked out of my room. But as soon as I arrived there, there were some new clothes and undergarments on the bed. Creasing my forehead, there was a letter beside them.'You can take a bath and use them to wear them. Then meet me on our balcony, love.Will be yours soon,S.H.P.S. If you are worried about the size of your bra, don't worry, I picked a 34B cup size for you.'That made my jaw drop. "What the fuck? He knew my cup size?" That made me horrified but at the same time, I castigated myself since I must now expect that Sebastian was a creep and

    Sebastian ushered me to go to the dining room. I couldn't lift an attitude with him as soon as he helped me to sit down and prepared breakfast for me."I know that you do not have many favorites when eating something in the morning. You like a meal that will surely fill your stomach," Sebastian said as he sat across from me. It was somehow bizarre to see him smiling. "So, I prepared the food that you will certainly like."Yes, he surely smiled but he would only do that if he was teasing me or he was in a good mood. But seeing him that he was always smiling seemed refreshing to me. What I knew from working with him for a whole year that would turn into two years was he was always grumpy.There were times that he would snap at anyone."I don't want to stay here..." I said as Sebastian was filling my plate. My heart was reacting so fast having him so close as he served me like I was his queen."Eat up." He certainly ignored my statement. "I will show you our island. I am certain that you

    "T-This isn't funny, Sir Sebastian." I slowly stepped back when he slowly took strides in my direction. My heart was beating so fast with every step he took.I felt more trapped than before.Sebastian drew out a condescending smile on his lips. "Who says that I am even jesting, Cejay?" I shivered when he held my chin and forced me to look at him. "Did you even see in this very room that screams everything about you, love? Do you know what this means?"I gulped, looking intently at his possessive gaze.He asked me what they meant. I started to think carefully. He had so many files which were all about me. Even candid photos.From elementary until now... It was as if he had been watching me for a very long time.If I would count the years he knew me, it was... more than 15 years?!I gasped and looked at Sebastian, horrified at the conclusion I reached right now. "I-I am the one you are talking about you love for s-sixteen years?" I parroted, hearing how my heart was racing rapidly.Seba

    I knew too well that I wouldn't get to concentrate on the movie I was watching.Sebastian was distracting me with the way he was cackling. It sounded so gorgeous and it made me want to straddle my boss for some reason.I snapped back, paying full attention to the movie I was watching."Say... Do you also bring your date here?" I asked when I started grasping the movie I was watching."Have I told you that I never dated anyone?" I looked surprised at his words. "I told you that I have loved someone for more than 15 years." He arched his eyebrow.My heart skipped a beat when he was looking at me intently. The way he looked at me, it felt like he was confessing his love to me."Ah, yes. Lucky her." I nodded. Such a lucky girl. However, I was the one who kissed him. Did it mean that I was his first kiss if ever? "Wait. You love someone else but you kissed me?" I was somehow surprised at my question. But I realized whose fault it was. "I mean well, yes, it is my fault. I am sorry about tha

    Shit... What on earth was he doing here in this place?His ocean blue eyes pierced me. "Fancy meeting you here, Cejay."I inhaled sharply, gulping. Fuck... I just saw him yesterday and now, I had to see him right at this moment? Oh, fuck me! I wanted to die in shame right now!I smiled wryly. "Yeah..." Now, I feel awkward. However, he didn't look like he was being awkward to me. "What brings you here?" I asked, trying to lift up the conversation so I didn't have to remember what I did to him.But what he did to me suddenly crossed my mind. It was unbelievably hot as well. Crap...Sebastian shrugged. "I am actually in the mood to eat outside. I didn't know you would also be here," he said nonchalantly. His eyes roamed around before his eyes darted on me. "You don't like this kind of restaurant. This doesn't satiate your hunger, I believe."My eyes widened when he came to know that. "Y-Yes. How did you know?" I asked, curious how on earth he knew about that fact."Whenever we tried eati
