“I don’t have anything for you to wear if you plan on staying” I tell him and I watch him grin.
“That’s fine, I’ll sleep in my underwear” he says while smirking and beginning to unbutton his top. I squeal before hiding my face in my hands in embarrassment.
“Mia cara you’re too innocent” I hear him say while chuckling. I look up to see him in nothing but boxer and take the time to ogle over his body. I quickly snap out of it and look at his face to his smirk widen before we walks towards me.
“Next time, a little warning would be much appreciated” I grumble while crossing my arms over my chest.
“My dearest apologizes mia cara” he replies with a smile whole walking over and pulling back the blankets. He gives me a kiss on the cheek before pulling me with him as he lays down. I snuggle up to his chest getting comfortable before looking up to bat my eyelashes at him.
“You’re gonna be the death of me” he whispers lovingly with his eyes closed and I smile. I close my eyes soon after and let his steady heartbeat lull me into a peaceful sleep.
Ivan’s pov.
The sun glaring in my closed eyes through the window disrupted my sleep. I open my eyes and look around confused at the unfamiliar surroundings. I feel weight on my chest and look down to see my angel sleeping soundly, her hair sprawled across her face. I watch her body rise and fall as she breathes, taking the time to admire her.
Her face had a very peaceful expression as she slept comfortably on my chest. Her long dark eyelashes rested on the top of her rosy cheeks and my gaze continues to sweep across her face. My eyes land on her little button nose and I examine the silver hoop that was pierced into her nose. My eyes finally land on her beautifully plump, pouty lips that I crave to have on mine every second of the day.
I slowly lift my hand up to brush her hair out of her face but she stirs and finally her eyes flutter open. My heart warmed as her gorgeous pools of emerald green eyes light up at the sight of me.
“Good morning Ivan” she whispers shyly her voice a lower pitch from sleeping making my lower anatomy stir excitedly.
“Good morning my love” I reply huskily and lean down to kiss her on the forehead. Pulling back, I look into her eyes and watch her expression as a beautiful smile appears on her mouth. She snuggles closer to me and lifts her head up to give me a kiss on my jaw. Restraining myself from ravishing her right here I close my eyes to calm myself down.
“How’d you sleep” she asks me, smiling deviously knowing her effect on me.
“Best sleep I’ve had in a while” I respond truthfully. Whenever I went to my bed to sleep, my mind kept me up with business ideas and possible alliances making me get up to write the down. It was a constant cycle until I was so exhausted I had no choice but to sleep. With her though, all my thoughts drifted away giving me the peace I needed to sleep.
“Same here” she replies sheepishly before sitting up to pull the blankets off her body. She stands up and my eyes immediately scan over her body stopping momentarily on her neck, my mind instantly filling up with how it’d feel to be kissing her neck. My gaze also falls to her long legs and I close my eyes instantly thinking of her legs wrapped around my torso as I made love to her.
“WHAT ON EARTH ARE WE STILL DOING ASLEEP WHEN WE HAVE WORK” I hear her screech making my eyes shoot open to look at her panicked state. Before I have time to answer, she’s already rushing to the bathroom muttering about how stupid she was. Chuckling I get up myself and grab my phone to call my chauffeur to bring me a suit telling him to be here in fifteen minutes. I walk over to her bathroom door to knock and opening it once I hear her respond. Walking in, I watch as she brushes her teeth and washes her face rapidly before she turns around to glare at me.
“Why aren’t you dressed yet?! Do you not realize I could get fired for showing up late” she exclaims with her hands on her hips and I immediately burst out into laughter.
“Oh mia cara, you’re so cute” I reply sobering up and giving her a kiss on the cheek. She gives me yet another glare before responding.
“I don’t understand what exactly you find so funny” she snaps frustratedly still not realizing her mistake.
“Considering I’m your boss, I don’t think you could get into very much trouble” I respond with a straight face before cracking a smile. Her facial expression changes to one of realization before she reddens in the face. I chuckle and shake my head before asking her a question.
“Do you have another bathroom I could use to get ready” I ask seriously.
“Yeah, it’s down the hall to your left. Their should be toothbrushes and such in one of the drawers” she replies thoughtfully before adding “Now get out so I can shower” giving me a soft push out of the bathroom. I chuckle before heading to the bathroom to get ready myself.
Shutting the door behind me, I quickly hop into the shower my muscles relaxing under the hot water. My mind fills with images of Amelia and I smile to myself feeling lucky to have her. She was gentle and kind hearted as well as a little minx when she wanted to be. I’m immediately filled with thoughts of Amelia in the shower, the water cascading down her body deliciously and I’m tempted to go explore every inch of her soft skin. I groan at my thoughts and switch the water to cold trying to calm myself down. It seemed to work slightly but my need to take her was still quite evident.
After my shower, I quickly brush my teeth and run my fingers through my hair before walking down the stairs with a towel around my waist. My gaze falls on Amelia’s back as she answers the door and grabs my suit from my chauffeur. She shuts the door and turns around jumping at my sudden appearance. I watch as her eyes rake my body hungrily and I watch her gulp before her eyes land on my own. Smirking, I walk over to her and grab my suit making sure to press myself against her before walking away completely.
“Meany” she grumbles under her breath and I bite back a laugh before walking back into the bathroom to get dressed.
Amelia’s pov.
I walk into the kitchen flustered at the sight of Ivan in only a towel but shake my head to rid the mental image. I make myself a cup of chai tea and Ivan a cup of plain coffee knowing he liked it like that. I open the fridge to see what I could make and decide on some scrambled eggs and sausage, scrambling around to make it. I hear footsteps behind me as I’m flipping the bacon and turn to see Ivan fully clothed much to my disappointment. He looked sexy as hell wearing his suit that hugged his strong physique nicely and I walk up to him before stopping. His eyes stare into mine intensely before he leans in to capture my lips with his.
The kiss was soft and sweet but still left my head reeling with the need for more. He tenderly caresses my cheek and I smile against his lips. He pulls away and I slowly open my eyes to see him looking at me with such want. I blush before turning around to plate the food, fully aware of Ivan’s gaze on me. I grab the two plates and set one in front of Ivan before handing him his coffee as well. I sit across from him at my counter and we both eat in a tense silence knowing fully well how much both of us wanted to jump one another. I slowly sip on my tea trying to distract myself from the very man whom I craved.
Finishing our breakfast I grab both our plates and set them in the sink before going to grab my heels as well as my purse. I was dressed in an all black dress with a red belt in the center. The dress was almost a bodycon but looked very professional. I paired it with nude heels and I kept my make up light only adding concealer and lip balm. I curled my hair very lightly to give it some texture and left it to cascade down my back.Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.
“I’m gonna drive myself to work” I say over my shoulder, prepared to leave.
“We’re going the same way, I don’t understand why you can’t ride with me mia cara” he replies confused to which I sigh.
