Chapter 4: You're playing with fire

I looked at him carefully. The anger in my chest was growing even more. How long have I waited for this opportunity.

Here he is in front of me... I can take the life he took from me.

But I can't rush.

His life was not enough as compensation. I will also bring down the business they have kept, and worked so hard.

Castroverde Empowered Motors Inc.

I will bring down your family's most beloved business, including your dirty name, which is only being cleaned up by your dirty wealth.

I cupped my palm.

The bitterness that I have been feeling since I saw him when I came home has spread even more in my system.

It's a great opportunity that he himself is making a way for us to get closer, but why?

His movements are suspicious. I knew he was planning something. He didn't even ask me what my name was. He definitely investigated before stepping back here again in my condo.

There was a lot going on in my mind, like he had found out something about me. It is very impossible that after what happened last night he suddenly took an interest in me.

I raised an eyebrow at the thought.

Suddenly got interested in me, Miguel?

I smirked.

"Are you... hitting on me?"

I stepped closer to him. I could see how the expression on his face changed but was immediately replaced by coldness.

Did my face and body meet your standards?

"Why are you interfering so much in my life? I remember that we just met last night," I asked with a naughty smile plastered on my face.

His forehead furrowed and distanced his self to me. He sat down on the sofa and cleared his throat before speaking.

"You were injured last night because of me. And I expected you to use the check but it's already afternoon, and there's still no bank calling me to confirm the withdrawal," He firmly said.

"Wow! A little wound for half a million? You're crazy." I chuckled.

I approached him and sat beside him on the sofa. I ran my long red nail down his thigh.

"You don't even know my name." I smirked more. "Wait... did you perhaps hire someone to do a background check on me, Mister Castroverde?"

I feel him stiffened. "Stop it."

I can start the plan now. He was in my territory and approached me by himself. It was a great opportunity for me to make him go fall into my trap.

I grinned even more as I slowly removed the button on his dress shirt. I could feel the stiffness in his body. I stopped with only two buttons left. I put my hand inside his dress shirt, tracing it. I heard him swear so I laughed.

Laughter that is captivating and meaningful.

"Why? I didn't quite think that I had any effect on you," I teased.

I bit my lower lip and continued to run my fingers. I played with the tiny hair on his chest. He cursed again before wrapping his arm around me and gently guiding me over him.

"You're playing with fire," he whispered.

He chased his breath as his smoky gray eyes focused on me. I immediately pressed my lips to his. I heard him groan, and opened his lips to return my kisses in the most wild way he knew.

His lips were warm and soft. I deepened my kiss even more. I felt his naughty hands move all over my body. He pressed his body against me.

I don't know but I feel like I'm going to burn with the heat from his hand to every fiber of my body.

I felt his hard rock between my thighs. He's damn huge and I don't know if I can take it. Maybe Adelaine is right. I should watch porn, so that I will have the superiority when it comes to this.

I moaned as he swiftly move and changed our position. I feel like my sofa has shrunk because of his mascular body. We looked at each other as he slowly tracing my thin lips. He was already on top of me and breathing deeply. His eyes were blazing in fire and lust.

I was not on my right mind when I  reached for his face and caressing the scar in his left eye.

"This scar. . ."

I couldn't continue to say anything because Miguel gave me a scorching kiss again. I clung to his neck and responded to the heat his body brought.

I moaned as his kiss fell on my neck. I tilted my head to give him a better access to it. I could feel live insects in my stomach as he kissed me.

This is part of the plan.

This is part of the plan.

The main part of the plan.

The main... I couldn't continue the chant on my mind because of the tingling sensation he was giving me.

I moaned and catch my breath.

This is included in the plan, Shintarra. Don't be too carried away!

I heard the removal of my bra lock at the same time as my cellphone rang on the table. I tried to reach it, but Miguel stopped me. He cupped my breast and enjoyed it like his favorite dessert.

I growled louder. I reached for her hair and held it tightly. I could feel something building up in my stomach, but I could feel more of the tickle and electricity brought by Miguel's kisses on my chest.

My cellphone rang again. I have to answer that. My eyes were half close as I looked at my cellphone on the table. I saw Ellise's name, so I immediately pushed Miguel and sat up.

Miguel did not release me immediately. He wrapped me in his arms as he kissed my shoulder blade. He gently stroked my messy hair and placed it on my left shoulder, and continue what he was doing on the right.

I closed my eyes as I felt another unfamiliar sensation he was giving me.

I need to answer Ellise's call. Damn it!

"W-Wait, Miguel..." Miguel stopped kissing me and looked at me with a frown.

I cleared my throat and answered Ellise's call.

"Yes, lhey?"

I stood up and walked away from Miguel while making myself presentable.

"Change of plans. Let's continue your coffee shop," she said in a serious tone.

I turned to Miguel. He was still sitting on the sofa and hadn’t even put on the clothes. I was able to see his body so well. I looked down at the huge bulge in the middle of his thigh. I didn't even realize that he's almost naked!

I swallowed again. I bit my lip when I saw him looking at me, and was caught looking at his body.

The heat and lust were still evident in his eyes.

"Shin? Are you listening?" I was surprised when Ellise spoke again on the other line.

"I-I'm listening. Is there a problem?" I close my eyes and turn away from Miguel again.

"We all need to talk. We'll be in your condo in fifteen minutes."

"Don't!" I stopped.

"What?!"

I was immediately nervous. Miguel and my team can't meet here in my condo. I'm not hiding anything from Ellise and the others because they know my plan, but why am I not comfortable that the all of them meet here?

"Uh... I'm not in the condo. Let's just meet outside. At the hotel!"

I looked at my clock. It's past seven in the evening.

I didn't even realized the time.

I felt Miguel move behind me. I looked at him again and saw that he was getting dressed. I bit my lip as I watched him close the buttons of his pants while his hair was still messy.

"Okay. Same room?" Ellise asked.

"S-Same room..."

Miguel looked at me with a streak of anger in his eyes. He firmly stand in front of me as if waiting for me to drop the call.

"L-Let's just meet t-there, lhey," I stammered.

I put down my cellphone after Ellise’s call. Miguel followed that with a frown look, then turned his eyes back to me.

"A-Are you leaving?" I ask.

"You're leaving," he insisted.

I licked my lips and smiled at him. I stepped closer to close our distance. I tiptoed and reached for his soft lips. He touched my face and guided me towards him to make the kiss even more intense. Our lips interwined for a long time before he let go.

Chasing my breath, I looked at him.

"I'll walk you out."

He nodded and gaze my phone again. My heart skipped a beat when I saw pain and anger in his eyes.

This would have been a great opportunity but it is more important that my team and I talk first. I have a feeling that Ellise is having trouble with her own mission.

I led Miguel up to the elevator. He kissed me again before finally leaving. I was still stunned for a moment in front of the elevator before moving back to my unit.

What was that? We almost. . . .
