Chapter 21

*Tina's POV *

My eyes opened slowly and I winced. The light from the window nearly blinded me. I tossed around and then noticed an arm around me. I nearly jumped in my fright until I noticed the owner of the arm. Alejandro.

The memories of last night came to me and I flushed pink. That was really something. Alejandro was really something. I felt a feeling of greed within me. He had saved my life, treated me like a woman and finally lit up a fire within me that I didn't know that I had last night.

I suppressed a giggle as I saw his eyebrows knit together in his sleep. What was he dreaming of? His nose twitched like a bunny's and I found the urge to control the laughter even more difficult.

"You're staring." He startled me as he suddenly spoke. His eyes were still shut.

"I can't help it," I replied. "You look adorable."

His eyes snapped open. "Please don't ever say that in public."

"What about private?" I wriggled my eyebrows at him.

"That is still something we could discuss in future." He looked at me thoughtfully, though I could see his mouth twitch a bit in an attempted smile.

"Good morning," he said.

"Morning," I replied. "You know we're going to be late for work."

"That can be permitted," he said. "I'm the CEO, remember?"

"I know." I rolled my eyes with a smile. My mind drifted to Kelly. She was definitely going to give me some query later.

I had an epiphany at that moment and I suddenly started up, startling Alejandro.

"What's the matter?" His worried gaze lingered on me.

"We had sex yesterday!" I cried out.

Alejandro stared at me like I had two heads.

"The last time I checked, we did," he muttered. "Why is that the cause of an outburst.

"You ejaculated inside me."

"Dios mio, please don't say it in that way," he groaned, putting his hand over his face. "I did. So what's the problem?"

"What if that wasn't my safe period?" I asked.

"It was?"

"That's not the point!"

"Fine."

He sighed and sat up. He leaned towards me and kissed my shoulder.

"If it wasn't, then we let the inevitable happen. We're both adults and we would handle it that way."

My heartbeat tripled and I looked into his eyes. Was he implying what I did. Would he be willing to take responsibility if I got pregnant. Goodness, I didn't think this through. But I couldn't blame myself. If someone had a guy as sexy as a Greek god all over oneself, they tend to lose other sense of reasoning.

We heard a ringtone.

"That's my phone," Alejandro muttered. He stood up and made his way to his pants, which were draped over his seat. My eyes followed his naked bottom as he bent down to retrieve his phone from his pockets. Whatever he said to the person on the other end was zoned out by me as I kept my eyes glued to his buns. They were so round and firm. Good thing I was not the only one who had a sexy piece of meat as a backside. He ended the call and spun around and I nearly fainted. My eyes scanned his body from his well chiseled chest, delicious pictorial and finally the main event. Now I understood why I almost lost my mind and screamed a lot yesterday. That thing he packed between his legs was a weapon.

"Tina!"

My eyes quickly looked at his face. His eyes had an amused glint to them despite his stern demeanor.

"I've been calling your name for ages," he said.

"Oh, erm...what?" I blinked rapidly.

"I was saying that was my father. He was calling to know where I was. You know as we didn't go home yesterday."

"Oh," I said.

"But I guess your attention was somewhere else." He smirked and I saw that devilish look in his eyes. He walked towards me like a predator, licking his lips. My core tightened as I remembered what those lips did to me last night. I squealed in surprise as he pinned me to the bed and hovered over me.

"It seems you didn't get enough last night." He kissed my forehead and then moved forward to my lips. He claimed my lips and slipped his tongue inside. Our combined moans echoed in the room. I held tightly to him as our tongues engaged in a romance of their own. He pulled away and looked into my eyes.

"How about I make sure you're properly satisfied this time?" His eyelids lowered.

He kept his eyes on mine as his head dipped downward towards my groin. I bit my lower lip and spread my legs wide in anticipation. He had kissed my lips earlier. Now it seemed like he wanted to do the same to the lower pair. And I was not going to deny him that request.

I wouldn't mind being late today.

"Tina!" Kelly snapped my fingers in my face.

I lifted my face from my palms and stared at her.

"Sorry, what?" I blinked.

"You spaced out," she said. "Have you been listening to anything I said for the past twenty minutes?"

It was hard to. After my second round with Alejandro in the morning, we had left the hotel and I had made my way home. A quick shower later and I was at the office.

As predicted, Kelly had queried me on my sudden lateness and it didn't help that I managed to miss six of her calls.

"Come to think of it" —she raised her brows at me— "you've been like this since you arrived late. Did something happen yesterday?"

A naughty grin appeared on my face as I averted my eyes. Something did happen, an event that I looked forward to over and over again. My eyes envisioned those green seductive ones that looked straight at me earlier in the morning while he took me to the high heavens. I felt a burning at my loins and I squirmed in my seat.

"Okay something did happen." Kelly narrowed her gaze at me. "And I know it has to do with our boss."

"What are you talking about?" I tried as much as possible to keep a straight face.

"Come on," she said. "I remember leaving yesterday first and our boss approached you. He looked like he wanted to talk to you."

"Well.." My cheeks flushed pink.

"We did it." My voice came out in a whisper.

"Sorry I didn't get that." Kelly cupped her hand over her ears. "What did you say?"

I looked around the office and then leaned to her ears.

"We had sex," I whispered.

Kelly pulled back and stared at me. Her expression became blank and for moment it seemed like it was just two of us. Then she broke out in a large grin. "Oh my gosh!" she piped. "Are you serious?"

"Kelly, keep your voice down." I glared at her.

"Sorry," she replied. "But seriously I can't believe you finally took the next step. This is so naughty." She was practically bouncing in her seat. "So, how was it? Was he good?"

"Oh, you have no idea." My hands cupped my face as the wild images flooded my mind again.

"Finally." She smiled. "He finally got a taste of that big butt of yours. I knew it was a matter of time. No one would resist that."

"You just had to put in the butt joke," I said dryly.

"I can't help it." She giggled.

I shook my head at her.
