Sebastian stopped the car abruptly, dragging the vehicle to the road side. Her words rang in his head as he turned to face her in the vehicle. "You love me?" Yes he was stunned. She must have said it before. He had known she felt strongly for him. He just hadn't recognized or realized that it was love. Even now as he stared at her heaving chest, he couldn't believe what he had just heard. Ava folded her arms and pursed her lips feeling quite silly for saying all her feelings in one breath. She had been agitated and had felt infuriated because he insulted her and it had simply just come out. Overall she felt lighter. Getting it off her chest seemed to help. What made her uncomfortable was the look on his face. As if she had said something outrageous. "It doesn't matter," she grumbled, looking somewhere else. Anywhere but his face. Sebastian sighed deeply and turned to face the front. "I... I'm sorry," he muttered. "I don't need your apologies!" She snapped. "I don't need anything
Desire. He made him know Desire. He had heard that desire was intoxicating. It messed with the head and made a man tremble. Sebastian watched his hands, hell, his whole body tremble as he stared at her supple body. With the dress out of the way, her breasts exposed, supple pink nipples winking at him, begging for his attention. "Ava," he breathed, his body shuddering. "Ava, lay down. Fuck I have missed you so much," Her blue eyes heavy lidded with passion, she obeyed his bidding and laid on her bed, her hair splaying all over the white sheets. "Come here," She whispered. She didn't have to tell him twice. He yanked at his shirt, tossed it aside and lowered his body to hers, capturing her lips in a kiss at first. She was addicting. Innocent, yet so fucking addicting. Her body's scent tickled his nose and made his pants tighter at the thought of him buried in her arms. His lips left her lips, traveling down the length of her neck. Ava moaned at his open mouthed kisses, licking a
"Get back here right now!" Sebastian thundered through the house, shaking it by its foundations. He was a sight to see. A half naked hulking male dressed in nothing but black pants and flour all over his face. He snorted and sniffed most likely trying to get some flour out of his nose and glared at a figure before him. The figure was a giggling Ava dressed in his shirt. It looked so fucking good on her. She had her hands over mouth, stained with flour as she laughed her ass off at Sebastian. Sebastian's green eyes narrowed in what seemed to be anger, but when he spoke, his voice showed that he was anything but angry. "Come here you naughty little minx!" He boomed. "No!" Ava taunted, taking steps back from him. "Ava," he growled and she giggled again. Obviously enjoying their game of chase. Sebastian adored the look of glee on her face and loved the fact that he was the one who made her feel that way. He felt mildly silly. Standing in his living room, playing tag with his fake
Ava walked into the building she lived in with a spring to her step that the workers had not seen in quite a while. To the receptionist by the desk, ever since the lady had arrived from her vacation, she had looked pretty dreary. But now, she looked like a different person. Her lips had a sated satisfied smile on her face and she looked like she could break out dancing any minute. Ava did dance, but only in the privates of her elevator. She felt like some damned superstar and she loved it. Her mind and heart would always replay Sebastian's words in the car when he had dropped her off. "I have eyes only for you Ava," he had said, taking her hand in his. "If I wanted to get back with Natasha, then there would be no need for us to continue our relationship. And while I didn't expect that I would... Feel this way about you, I would never try to hurt you willingly Ava." "Oh my gosh," she squealed, covering her face shyly. Oh she loved him. She did. And she would patiently wait until he
“So what’s this sensation I’m getting from the Legendary playboy, Damian?” Sebastian asked as soon as they sat down after making their way into one of their favorite pubs in the city just across the building from where they worked.“Come on, man.” Damian groaned. “You couldn’t even wait for us to get settled down or to place our orders yet?”“You dragged me out from the mountain of paperwork I have lying on my desk, it’s only proper to barrage you with questions as I deem fit.” “Admit it, Sebastian. You need this drink as much as I do. Don’t act all righteous like you didn’t jump out of a meeting in the middle of yesterday to get into a squabble with Ava at a nightclub.” “You things are different when it comes to Ava.” Sebastian shrugged, signaling the waitress over. “It’s no secret that I’m a different person whenever she’s around me.” Damian drummed his fingers on the table. “I’m guessing you guys made up last night? I lost count of the number of times I called you but you never
“You sound like you wouldn’t mind beating him into a pulp,” Damian laughed. “Possessive much, eh?”“He knows she’s mine. Why the hell would he be hanging out in a club with her?” Sebastian frowned.“If a pretty woman invites me out to get high and probably have sex later, don’t expect me to turn it down, man. Especially if I’ve got eyes on her for a while.” Damian replied. “Sometimes, I wonder if you’re my best friend or biggest opposition.” Sebastian glared dagger at Damian. “It wouldn’t hurt to be on my side just this once.”“I told you before, Sebastian. I always play neutral. Besides, if I don’t tell you the truth, who will?” “It doesn’t have to be that way and you know it.” “You should be concerned about why Natasha is still up in your business till now. If she hasn’t gotten the memo, it’s because you haven’t been serious about it and now, you have Ava going out on club dates in the middle of a working day with a strange man. Everything is going up in smoke if you don’t put yo
“Don’t you think you should confront her to know what she’s keeping from you concerning this Jake guy?” Damian asked as they made their way up the elevator, running his hand through his wavy blond hair. “Do I need to go to such lengths?” Sebastian was feeling irritated already, he hated dealing with emotions of this magnitude. Being apathetic was a lot of chores already. “If I didn’t know any better, I’d say you’re scared of what you might find out if you confront her about, Sebastian.” “Let’s assume you’re right on this, Damian. Don’t you think I need to look forward to what the future holds instead of poking her over things like this? What if she feels hurt or feels unwanted enough to run away for the second time?” Sebastian pointed out.Damian groaned. “Why would she? She’s going to be grateful for your troubles when you finally figure out who this mysterious man is, I’m only trying to look out for you. To make sure you’re not being blindsided here.”“While I understand your con
Sebastian sat in his car as he took a long drag from his cigarette. He hasn’t smoked in a long time now but today was one of those days when he needed to clear his head after what he’d been through. The takeover had proven unsuccessful as he had gotten here in record time to turn everything around and become the chairman, buying out a record 90% shares of the business. He admitted to paying more than what it was worth but he didn’t mind, in a few years, he would’ve made up for the excesses. He sent the whole team home and instructed them to take the next day off, he wouldn’t have done this without them. The digital clock on the dashboard read 9:00 PM. The meeting lasted well over seven hours before a solution was gotten. She would still be expecting him, he had promised to come over just before they would finalize her return to the penthouse. He tossed out the dying embers of his cigarette before he turned on the ignition of the car and made his way down the street, leaving a tra
