Jeandre had prying eyes, the type that would peel your layers off one by one and would laugh loudly when it sees what is hiding underneath those skin.
But, staying with Christian had taught me many things, subconsciously. I schooled my face to look like I was utterly bored.
“He comes to visit, I’m a good listener”
He nodded his head and turned to the direction of the hallway.
“I still can’t believe I have a sister. Well, apart from Regalia. She has been a pain in my ass for ages”
“What happened that Marcellino lost custody of you and Regalia?”
I noted the way Jeandre’s shoulders froze at my question and I saw that he amse a great effort in trying to relax it. He smiled nervously.
“It’s long story” he said.
“I’ve got plenty of time, if they’re all eating outside and it’s this cold. I’m not sure I even want to eat at all”
“They’re not actually eating out, it’s just that they’re having dinner at the back of the house, it’s warm and it’s still indoors ” he really didn’t want to tell me, he couldn’t.
He was ashamed.
“Okay. That’s fine, I’m sorry for pushing ”
“No, I like it. Beauty and brains ” he said and jerked his chin towards the entrance of the hallway. “Someone is watching us”
I looked and leaning on the entrance of the hallway was Christian.
“How long has he been standing there?” Jeandre muttered and shuddered at the same time.
I could feel his uneasiness, especially for the fact that Christian was now shooting daggers at him.
Dear God.
I walked faster and Jeandre took it as a cue. I was trying to put distance between us but now, he was walking at the same pace.
“Jean, go on. I want to have a word with Jenna”
Jeandre stopped and looked at me with pity I could almost ready his thoughts, he was looking for ways to rescue me.
“Leave ” Christian said in a low and commanding tone.
Jeandre frowned and he walked away.
“What were the both of you discussing?” Christian asked.
I leaned on him and rested my head on his chest, his hands came around me and held me tight.
I didn’t mind if anyone would burst through those doors and see us. I didn’t mind if my mother would see us. This house had a kind of energy that bwas dense, it weighed me down. There was a good reason why I didn’t like to visit.
“He’s like a firewall, I can’t get past him”
“Why would you want to get past him?” I could hear that tang of jealousy and I knew he was trying his best to keep it down.
“Curiosity. Why didn’t you not mention them to me?”
I pulled out of his hold.
“I thought someone would mention them to you. I thought your mum didn’t like to talk about them.. you didn’t know you had a half sister and half brother?”
Hah!
“No, I didn’t know. Why is everyone so sneaky?” I was getting angry.
“I’m not sneaky” Christian said cupping my face.
“You’re the sneakiest of them all Mr Christian ”
He grinned, that boyish grin that showed how young he really w as and he bit his bottom lip.
“You want me to exercise my sneakiest?” He asked me.
I raised a brow.
“What?”
“How about we go to your former bedroom for a quickie ”
“You can’t be serious ”
The heat was already forging between my legs, he never failed to turn me on. The idea of it alone was tempting.
“I’ll make it worth it. You’ll love it” he sad leaning in and he kissed me. He ran his tongue over my top lip, them hee went to my bottom lip and he dipped his tongue into my mouth.
“Please, I need you now” his voice was short of breath.
“What you need Mr Christian, is to breathe.. Oxygen”
He laughed and pinned me on the wall, the mention was so quick, I didn’t know it happened until both of my hands were held at my side.
“Someone might come” I told him.
“Fuck them… I want you, now”
“Now?”
“Yes, here. Now”
“What about my former bedroom?!”
“The offer is off the table, now it’s on my own terms, I’ve reduced my generosity”
My mouth flew open in shock.
“I am not your business partner!” I reminded him.
He smirked.
“I’m sorry I forgot.. future Mrs Christian”
He kissed my neck, he ran his tongue along my throat and when I tried to hold back my moan, it came out louder when he licked my earlobe.
“They’ll be waiting for us” I told him and he acted as if he didn’t hear me.
“Here or kitchen, pick one”
“Kitchen” I said very quickly and he smiled.
“Good girl”
He lifted me up and I looked around trying to see through the walls to know if someone was eavesdropping.
He looked the door and set me on the counter. The kitchen smelled delicious. I wanted to tell him about marcellino’s threat, to disown me but instead, I shut my mouth and let him lift my dress.
He took off my pantie and set it aside.
“Hey, I remember the first time I was at your house”
“Yes?”
“My pantie, you took it, where is it?”
“My office”
I gasped.
“What the hell is it doing there?”
“Keeping me company”
I was about to protest and say something but he spread my legs, pulled me to the edge of the counter and thrusted in. I moaned and threw my head back.
He started rocking his his hips and with every thrust, I moved backwards on the counter and he pulled me to the edge again, only to thrust into me and push me backwards again.
I was loving the mention, I bit my bottom lip and looked down to watch where we were joined. His hand came to my face, then it was on my neck.
I was almost there, I could feel it.
He moaned my name and when I opened my eyes, I swear I could see stars. It this was what it meant to have a word with me, I want him to have a word with me every time.
