Page 20 of The Rules Of Attraction
Okay maybe not, that was a complete exaggeration.
It just felt that way because it was so intense.
I needed to go so I could get ready for work. At least I wasn’t hung over and would hopefully make a good impression.
That was all I wanted for today, or even the rest of the week.
Careful not to wake him I slipped out of Alex’s arms. I looked at him asleep still and took a moment just to look at him, sealing him to my memory.
I’d had a really good time with him. Being with someone like him was something I could only ever imagine up in a wild fantasy. I was glad that I got to live that out.
Gathering my clothes, I left the room so I could get ready without making any noise. I then called a taxi.
However, as I was heading to the door to leave big strong arms grabbed me and surrounded me as I passed the corridor.
“Leaving so soon?” Alex asked.
Damn, he was awake.
He turned me to face him but kept me in the corner between the wall that divided the kitchen and the sitting room. Again those strong arms were placed either side of me.
Eyes silver, heavy with seduction. He was only wearing his boxers so I had the rest of his body to admire.
“I’m supposed to leave now,” I replied trying to act like I knew what to say, and like I wasn’t affected by how gorgeous he looked in the bright sunlight.
“Who say’s?” He challenged.
“Most people who do one night stands.”
“Stay, don’t leave. I had no intention of making this some one night stand.” The corners of his mouth lifted into a sexy smile.
There was nothing I wanted more than to stay.
It was tempting.Reallytempting since I wasn’t even going to be doing what I was trained for.
With all those years of working hard, all my legal education, talents and experience, I should have at the very least been going to start a job as an associate or junior partner in a top firm. But no. I was going to be a PA.
A PA in a very prestigious law firm but a PA none the less.
It was salt on my wounds, but I had to see it for what it was. A way back in.
A way back to what I should be doing.
“I have to work,” I replied.
“Forget work, angel. You’ll have more fun with me.” He cooed leaning in to kiss me.
The kiss. I should have run away when I saw those lips coming but I remembered how they tasted and how he made me feel. I kissed him back loving the feel of his tongue on mine.
A finger was flicked backwards and forwards over my breasts reminding me of how much my body loved attention from this man.
“Stay baby. Let’s go back to bed and stay there until we absolutely have to leave it.” He teased against my lips.
“What would be a reason to absolutely leave the bed?” Slowly I could feel myself getting lost in that presence he had.
“Angel, for you I would happily die in the fucking bed.”
God, how the hell was I supposed to leave?
