"ahemmm", Christine cleared her throat to get Joseph's attention. He seemed to be so focused on what he is working on his laptop that he did not notice her.
It has already been 10-15 from when the plane took off the runway.
" Uhm, do you need anything Miss Christine?'', Mr Albert asked politely.
" just Christine please, stop the formality", she asked him.
" As you wish Christine", he said smiling and for a second, she can sense that he was a bit too excited but she ignored it.
'' I was wondering if I can use the private room, I just wanted to lay down", she said smiling back at him. She did not have any sleep for the past few days and her body was already screaming for sleep.
Joseph looked at her and he caught her smiling at Mr. Albert, his expression turning colder and then he turned to look at Mr. Albert who was also smiling and his smile slowly faded as if he was caught red handed.
"you are free to use it", Joseph said flatly. He then put his laptop aside and stood up. He then extended his hand towards her.
She was confused and just stared at his extended hand.
"ahem", Mr Albert as he adjusted in his seat. She looked at him and then at Joseph. He was looking at her expectantly.
Confused, she absentmindedly took his hand and let him help her stand. She felt a surge of energy flowing from the tips of her fingers to her entire body.
"ahhh", she felt a sudden urge to get closer to him but before she knew it, he already let go of her hand and walked towards the private room. She did not see the triumphant smile on his face as he quickly turned his back on her.
He opened the door for her then let her go inside. Upon seeing the white and neat bed, she suddenly felt so tired. It seems that all her energy vanished and she did not even bother to close the door and directly plunge into the bed, finding comfort and instantly fell asleep.
She was no longer aware that Joseph did not leave the room but instead he closed the door and sat on the bed. His eyes become soft and a smile can be seen on his face. He carefully caressed her face, tucked away some strands of stray hair away from her face. He was dotingly staring at her having a peaceful sleep.
"It has been five years, it is time for you to come home, " he said and planted a light kiss on her forehead.
Feeling the warm kiss, she moved a little towards where the kiss came from. It made him smile and his eyes were so tender.
He just stayed there and as if he remembered something, his expression changed and his eyes became darker then he whispered "I will satisfy you in bed that you will beg me to stop and you will no longer have time to look for someone else", he said as if saying a vow.
He laid down and hugged her from behind. Unconsciously, she flipped and faced him getting closer wanting to feel the warmth that his body emits.
"hmmm", a sigh escaped from his throat as she was unconsciously rubbing her body to him. His throat became dry and eyes became darker with desire.
"be still my love, I can't love you right now", he said as he tried to keep her steady. He gently kissed her forehead and closed his eyes.
The plane landed at the D City airport and it was already 10:30 in the evening. Mr. Albert had already taken the pieces of luggage off the plane and he went back to get the other things and he was surprised to see his boss getting out of the cubicle carrying Christine who was sleeping soundly.
Mr. Albert went inside the cubicle to get the personal effects of Christine. When he went out, Joseph was already inside the car with Christine leaning on his shoulder still sleeping and unaware of what is happening.
The driver could not help but smile awkwardly seeing his boss carrying a delicate woman in his arms. He quickly opened the passenger door so his boss could put the woman inside the backseat. The woman was sleeping peacefully and by her look, she is not an ordinary woman. She looked so delicate and beautiful.
The driver quickly went back to the driver's seat but can't help sneaking glances at his boss with the lady in his arms. He has not seen his boss this gentle and happy. It is the first time he saw his boss smiling.
Mr. Albert opened the passenger door and went inside after he has put all their pieces of luggage in the trunk. The driver started the car and slowly drove out of the airport when Mr. Albert was settled inside the car.
Everyone was silent inside the car. The driver still sneaking glances at his boss while Mr. Albert was leaning against the seat with his eyes closed.
Christine stirred a little and nestled on Joseph's neck. Joseph adjusted his shoulder so she won't fall. The car moved unsteadily as they reached the rough road towards the mansion. The movement would cause Christine to bounce and fall on Joseph's lap so he just let her sleep on his after adjusting her body.
The travel from the airport to the mansion took 45 minutes and 5 minutes of it was on the rough road which causes Christine to bounce a little but her sleep was so deep and she had no idea about it. She had no idea how Joseph lovingly cared for her making sure that she won't fall and that she will have a good night sleep.
The car stopped in front of the mansion. Mr. Albert went out of the car quickly and opened the door for Joseph. He went out and bent over to pick Christine up.
A maid who was waiting for them opened the door and Joseph carried her inside the mansion. She was still sleeping soundly.
Joseph went straight to the second floor towards the guest rooms. There were 3 guestrooms in the mansion, two upstairs and one downstairs. Joseph's room is at the far end of the hall next to one of the guest rooms which he ordered to be prepared for Christine.
While he was walking towards the guest room, he was not aware that a pair of eyes glared at them like daggers. Celine was waiting for him to come back and excitedly got out of bed when she heard the car stopped at the main door. She looked at herself in the mirror, making sure she looked perfect. She was wearing a red nightgown which is only up to her thigh. It has a spaghetti strap with a lacy bodice. It is made of silk and with laces around the breast area and at the hem. She smiled at her reflection on the mirror and waited for Joseph to come by her room which he normally does.
