I was a little nervous about going to a private party with a client who I had my tongue down his throat, my bosses would be mad if they learnt of this, I refused the thought of having anything to do with Noah, but my body said otherwise, everything about this man makes me tingle, makes me feel something, I was putting finishing touches to my make up, I wore a flowery dress and my curls were neatly packed in a ponytail style, Dawn had made sure I was looking my best
But something didn't sit right with me either, I wasn't of his world.
I couldn't shake off the feeling that I didn't belong there, heck what was I even doing there.
My phone rang and it was Noah
"I'm downstairs Amelia, you ready?"
"Yes give me a minute" I replied arranging my vanity with my ear pressed down on the phone.
I headed for the elevator to the lobby and there was Noah Prescott, looking like a sculpture made from God, his black tailored suit and his dark hair, really suited him, that face was so pretty, I wanted my tongue all over it.
Control yourself now.
He saw me and smiled, I walked towards him and when I reached in front of him, silence.
"You look beautiful and so ravishing he said his eyes dancing all over my body, heat flushed in my cheeks.
"As do you "
"Okay let's go" he said pointing to a Lamborghini
"You own that?" I asked impressed, I haven't ridden in one of those in a long time.
"Yes amongst others" he winked opening the door for me to enter.
Cute and gentlemanly.
I slid in and watched him, entered the car and then we drove off.
As we approached Noah's driveway, I could hear chatter and music, I took deep breaths and slid out of the car and took Noah's hands.
"They'll love you", he whispered "nothing to be afraid of" he said
I nodded in agreement, let's get this over with.
He took my hand, leading me through the grand hallway into a sunlit dining room where family and friends were gathered. Warm greetings echoed around me. His mother smiled warmly, his younger sister gave me a teasing grin, and friends were casually chatting, wine glasses in hand.
Noah guided me gently to his side. , this is Amelia Monroe," he introduced to his friends and some of his work colleagues too. "She's been handling some of my investments."
"Welcome, Amelia," his mother said, her voice soft but discerning. "We've heard so much about you."
I smiled politely. "Thank you, it's a pleasure to meet you all."
The night carrier on easy and Noah never left my side for once, glances from Noah, and small moments where his hand would brush mine. I noticed his sister's mischievous look, and I knew I was being subtly interrogated. But the way Noah's eyes lingered on me, quietly protective, made my pulse race.
Having met his entire life at this point, Noah excused himself to a meeting with some people I suspected where investors and stakeholders, I was alone and wandered through the house, I was at the backyard gardens when a figure appeared beside me.
"And you must the lovely Amelia"
I turned to the voice, and it was a very pretty woman, brunette, white tan skinned, brown eyes and high cheek bones, she's a girl you'd be insecure to be around.
"Yes and you are…?
"Forgive my manners, I'm Sadie, Excutive assistant to Noah Prescott" she said with her hands extended.
I shook her hands smiling "nice to meet you" she didn't smile back
"I was honestly wondering what your relationship with my boss was, I thought he was a client of yours" she said with a hint of evil in her eyes.
"Yes he is my boss and this is just a friendly and harmless invitation" I responded
"Harmless huh? You wouldn't be the first he brought to these things" she said looking at me intently.
Oh really, why did I feel some pangs of pain in my stomach?
"That must be nice" I said looking away from her
"Noah is a very sensitive boss, and I wouldn't want anything to compromise his work" she said looking me up and down
What does this bitch want?
"Sure of course, I'd be headed inside now, if you'll excuse me", I said slipping past her.
Where the hell was Noah?
I found him in his study, but he was in a meeting, his eyes met mine and he excused himself.
"Hey sorry I left you by yourself, you good?" He asked
"Yeah I'm totally fine, it's getting late tho and I should be heading home soon" I said
"Okay give me a minute to wrap this up" he said
…..
I kissed goodbye to his mom and sister, I had a swell time, except for Sadie who thought I was in unfamiliar territory. Noah led me back to his car and then we drove off.
"You have a lovely family" I said breaking the silence in the car.
"Yeah, I cherish my family, that are everything you know" he said
"Yeah" I replied "I'm really sorry about your dad though, I read somewhere he was ill?" I asked
"He was, it was a strange time for the family but I'm glad we got through that" he replied looking at me
His hands left the head and patted my thighs and lingered there.
That felt so good.
And soon we were pulling up to my apartment
"Here we are" I announced
Noah reached across to help me with my seatbelt and within seconds, his mouth came on mine, hard and fast, I nearly exploded from pleasure, it was demanding and firery, I melted into him instantly, taking everything he wanted to offer me,
could feel the heat of his body through the thin fabric of our clothes, and I pressed closer, wanting more, needing him. His hands slid over my curves, grounding me, making me feel like I was the only person in the world.
When he finally pulled back just enough to look at me, his gray eyes smoldered with an intensity that left me breathless. I could feel my pulse hammering in my ears. "Amelia…" he murmured, I was in heaven, and his words were incomprehensible.
"Go upstairs before something we would regret happen" he whispered looking at me.
I nodded my head too stunned to speak, and then I went up to my apartment.
A Second time is a coincidence or is it?
His kisses made me heady and drunk on hormones and I liked it and wanted more.
