Jasira ran to the washroom immediately he left at the sudden bile in her throat. Her stomach swirled continuously as she bent over the sink. Every bit of strawberry and apple pie she had earlier flowed out of her mouth endlessly.
The light pat on her back from Amy was doing nothing to her. This was her third time puking after Alejandro’s mysterious sudden arrival. Lily had gone to get her tea from her kitchen.
“He is not going to do anything to you.” Amy tried to assure her but that only worsen her condition as another bile rose to her throat and she kept throwing up again. She retched and her stomach churned. Gosh! She should have kept quiet when Lily asked her the question.
“Is she okay?” Lily’s worried voice came up as she entered the room. She placed the tea on the stool before entering the washroom to meet her.
There was no answer so she guessed Amy must have answered with her head. Her eyes clouded with blurry vision as she spat water on her face and mouth.
She raised from the floor she kneeled at even when she was nowhere okay. She didn’t want to bother them too much.
“I’m okay.” Her fluttering voice gave way to her lie but nobody decide to say anything and she was grateful for that.
“Here,” Lily passed her the tea when she balanced on the bed.
“Thanks.” She muttered and reached out for it with shaking hands. Thought of what Alejandro meant by his last words clouded her head, only two words get to mess up her life like this. The chamomile tea flowed on her tongue down to her throat and her stomach. Her stomach shunned and another bile rose to her throat but another sip cleared every bit of bile in her throat.
“Thank you.” She muttered setting the mug on the nightstand feeling a bit better than before.
“Will you have a short nap here so you will feel okay?”
She glanced around the guestroom. She wanted to turn down the request but the feeling of meeting Alejandro in her room made her agree. Soon she was left alone and she curled up under the sheet.
And tried to remove all the thoughts of Alejandro from her mind but still the uneasiness ate her up and sent her goosebumps.
***
Jasira woke up to the continuous ringing of her phone. She swiped the red button sleepily and drop it back by her side.
She rolled to the other side, rubbing her eyes without opening. A deep aroma of croissant filled her nose which made a small lazy groan escape from her. She opened her eyes slowly and blinked severally because of the sleep.
She lay languidly on the bed staring at the strange environment she was in. Her brain was foggy and the aroma is disturbing her focus. It took her minutes before everything came rushing to her.
‘Tell me about Alejandro’s behavior to you.’
‘Nice one.’
‘Rest for a while.’
She jerked up from the bed when everything dawned on her sending the comforter covering her body to the ground.
“Shit!” She cursed under her breath picked up her phone she flung it to the other side of the bed. Her heart was a wild drum when she checked her phone.
Three missed calls on her phone. One from Alejandro, and the rest from her nanny’s mother. One unread message from Alejandro again.
It was only five words yet they cause havoc in her body.
‘Meet me in your room.’ It was not the text that disrupted her life, it was the time he sent it. Three hours ago. Her short nap eventually turns into a four-hour-long sleep. The sleep worked for a moment, the headache and the nausea were gone but they were back immediately she stood before his door.
She didn’t even have a taste of the croissants that woke her up. Muttering some small prayer and heaving a heavy sigh she announced her arrival and a deep voice order her in.
She had been here for a lot of time yet every time, nervousness ate deep into her blood. She twisted the door knob and stepped in gently like she was stepping into the fire.
Her eyes roamed around the room before they land on shirtless Alejandro. Dryness found its way to her chest, desire pulled into her core forgetting her nemesis.
His sculptured chest was bare to her eyes under the full light. His perfect tone and the tattoo that went from his chest to his forearm. Apart from the iciness. Alejandro was the definition of perfection. Every damn of his physical feature was perfect, from his godly face to his chest.
Her eyes moved to his long black coily hair due to the water. The length was just at his neck. Her hand itched to touch it. To ransacked her hand through the texture.
“Done checking me out, baby girl.” Tease ran under his voice and Jasira turned crimson. She nudge her head with her shoulder hiding her colored cheeks. Fuck Alejandro for that voice. Fuck her for staring too long at him.
Fuck her for indulging how perfect his abs were and how badly she wanted to outline every inch with her fingers. Gosh, fuck her for thinking of that when he just teased her. Her eyes flickered to him and caught him staring at her lips for milliseconds before they were back on her eyes.
His left eye twitched like he remembered she should be here earlier.
“I know I should be here earlier but I had a very bad moment after you left. It was disastrous and everything got messed up. I decided to have a short nap but I fell asleep instead. I know you are very furious with me right now but__
“So good to see the fear in you.” His words, his tone, and that stupid smug face that she hated so much threw her off-guard. She was talking too fast earlier, rambling unnecessarily information that she forgot that she was not breathing through her words and sweat had damped her forehead.
“I… I did__” She clamped her mouth shut seeing that it was useless. She feared him, so much that she was angry with herself.
“Wanna run that little mouth of yours about how lie that is, baby girl.” His lips curved into a little smirk as he decide not to throw on a shirt to annoy her.
Jasira stared at him with lips ajar. Shocked was an understatement for her, forget Alejandro being a devil, this was annoying the fuck out of her, out of the things she knew he can say. This one was not of it and it’s not supposed to shock but here she was, lips ajar.
She closed her eyes briefly wishing for God to give her power so she could slit that tongue of his.
“I didn’t fear you.” She finally spat out snorting alongside.
“And my mouth is not little.” She added.
“And that reminds me, I’m not a baby girl. Not your baby girl and I’m Jasira.” She finished. So proud of herself that she did not stuttle though she was very angry that Alejandro was not frattle about it.
“Baby girl.” He drawled his baritone voice. Horror slipping out of it in a warning. A don’t start what you can’t finish tone.
She swallowed her lump as she rubbed her thumb against each other.
“I’m still not your baby girl.” Okay, that was not the words she was searching for. A simple okay was the one on her tongue, not these.
A dark low-humor chuckle that filled every corner of the room snapped her back to reality.
And she glanced up only to notice that Alejandro was standing so close to her. So close that her throat suddenly dried up, her nose filled up with his cigarettes-like scent, and when he leaned his head forward without breaking eye contact. She went completely still and out of breath.
“Did I need to fuck you so bad, so high before you know you belong to me? Your body, your soul, your pretty pink nipples, your little pretty cunt sitting behind your legs.” Shivers run through her own body. Her core vibrate at the mention of that, waking up to his words and his voice against her skin but she didn’t have time to dwell on anything before he continue.
“Belong to me. Or when I have baby girl carved on every corner of your body. Make you walk with my scent and make your little pussy drip for me in front of millions.” Her legs weaken at the image he painted before her, a pool of liquid drizzled her pant. She shifted uncomfortably under his sight.
“Before you know that you belong to me. And I get to call you what I like, want, preferred and no one changes it, inquires about it, and stops it, not even you__ baby girl.”
He leaned away from her smirking at the red-colored girl in his front. Her olive skin was so red that it hurt the eyes but he love her like that. So flushed by his words.
Jasira swallowed hard that her adams apple bubbled constantly, she could felt every inch of her skin turning red, blazing with fire and her core making a mess on her pant.
She can deal with every part of Alejandro and this was the part had her worked up. Make her lose her words. The part she hated herself most.
“More like that.” Alejandro teased at her silence.
“Can… can I go now?” She stuttered not knowing what to say. Asking for his permission was not what she wanted to do right now. She wanted to run away with how his words is affecting her. His blue eyes on her that set fire within her body.
Alejandro bent down and picked up a package. He threw it at her which she caught sluggishly.
“Dress in that, you are following me.”
