Chereads / The Scots Rendezvous [Completed] / Chapter 42 - Portion 11: The Invitation

Chapter 42 - Portion 11: The Invitation

Lyana Debaux's POV

Stupid heart, why are you beating so fast right now!

I was looking at the food as I was feeling giddy that Edmond Lattone wanted me for tonight. But will it be okay though? To have sex after the first date that we had?

I was munching the food before I was sipping on the wine and I was ready to bail out of here. Edmond was sipping on his wine as well and he was looking at me like he wanted to eat me for dessert.

And maybe I wanted him to.

I smiled before Edmond was signaling for the check. The waiter came and Edmond paid for our meals with his platinum credit card. And here I thought he was a commoner.

"So, what was the plan after this?" Edmond asked me as I was looking at the macaroon store situated in front of the restaurant. The time was still early like 3 PM.

"I have something for dessert that I wanted you to try," I said and I know that it has a double meaning because Edmond's eyes were dilating.

"Oh? I will be counting on it," he said before I blushed. Damn this man! I don't think that anyone could have that kind of effect when I was supposed to be the one that was seducing him but no!

It was the other way around now.

"Okay, let's go," Edmond said before he was offering his hand and I went to take it. The contact was electrifying and I don't think Edmond noticed.

If he did, he did not show it on his face.

I was smiling before we were out of the restaurant as I was pulling him to the macaroon store. He laughed before I was pointing at the store.

"Shall we?" I asked as I was pulling him into the store.

"Bonjour," the cashier said as I was smiling at him.

"Bonjour, Je prend un macaroon chocolat pour lui et un macaroon rosé, s'il vous plait," I said as I was looking at the young boy before he was putting two macaroons as I wanted it. I was smiling before I felt the brooding aura next to me.

I turned to look at Edmond that was eyeing the young boy with anger. I snickered before Edmond turned to look at me. I ignored him.

"Le totale est 14.95 euros, madame," the young boy said before I was pulling the money out but Edmond was beating me to it.

"Keep the change," he said in English before he took the brown bag and pulled my hand out of the store before I thanked the young boy.

"Merci beaucoup," I said before we were at the center of the mall. I was looking at Edmond that he was furiously gripping the brown bag before I was arching my eyebrow at him.

"Looks like someone doesn't want the macaroons. Well, I guess I will eat both of them then," I said before I was moving to get the brown bag but Edmond was pulling me by the waist as I was looking at him.

"Oh? Is that what you think?" He asked as I was furrowing my eyebrows at him.

"What do you mean?"

"You think I don't want dessert? Is that it?"

"No, I never say that,"

"Good, because I want more than these macaroons," Edmond said and with that, he was pulling me to kiss me on the lips.

I was shocked, to say the least, but I have been waiting for him to kiss me, all day long. It was torturing but right now, we were kissing in the middle of the mall that passerby was looking at us.

But this is Paris, the city of Love.

I was wounding my arms around his neck before Edmond was pulling me closer again. I was taking a deep breath before he released me and settled his forehead on mine.

"Now, can we go home now?" He asked me in that husky voice of his that made me turned to jelly and almost do anything for him.

Keynote: almost.

"Sure, but why I have to go home with you? I have my own house you know," I said as Edmond smirked at me. He perked my lips before I was looking at his blue eyes. They were dilating.

"It would be great if there was a woman's touch in my apartment and you," he said before he was pulling me out of the mall and we were walking toward his car.

Edmond opened the door and I slid in before he went to the driver's seat and got in. He started the ignition before he was speeding off from the Halles.

Edmond Lattone's POV

I was gripping the steering wheel as the scent of jasmine was making my cock hardened every fucking minute. I was gripping the steering wheel and tried not to stop and ravish Lyana in the car by an abandoned alley. Lyana was being oblivious when I know that she wanted to ravish me as well.

Or maybe it was just my imagination.

I was gulping the lump in my throat as I was parking the car into the garage and I turned off the engine. I got out before I went to her side and opened the door for Lyana. I offered her hand and she took it.

"Thank you," she stated before I nodded curtly at her. I went to the boot and I was opening it before all the shopping spree that I was doing were looking at me. I sighed before Lyana laughed beside me.

"Well, it looks like we have to postpone our desserts then," she said before I turned sharply at her as she was holding the brown bag.

"The macaroons, remember?" She said with a mischief in her eyes. I nodded at her.

"of course, that," I said as I was pulling out the stuff and brought them inside as I was carrying them through the door that was connected to my apartment and garage.

"Where do you want them, boss?" Lyana asked before I was setting the stuff on the floor. There was nothing inside the apartment's living room. It was just the carpeted floor.

"Anywhere?" I said as I was looking at Lyana, smiling like an idiot. She chuckled before we went to pick some more and I was putting the stuff on the floor.

"I think we can put the food in the refrigerator and you can sort the other later," Lyana said as she was putting the food in the places that I don't think I know existed. I was looking at her when she was putting the plates and cups on the cupboard and I was putting the food in the refrigerator.

"You should put the veggies in here, it will be fresh much longer if you put here," Lyana said as she was pulling the boxes at the bottom of the fridge. I smiled at her sheepishly.

"Well, now you know I never had done this before," I said as I was putting the veggies before Lyana was sitting next to me and she was sorting out the fruits in the adjacent box to my veggies.

"It's okay, it will help you out later. It's never too late to start now," Lyana said before she was pushing the boxes to close it and we stood up as I was looking at the other stuff as well. I groaned. Lyana laughed.

"Now, shall we?'' She asked before we moved to the bedroom as I was putting up the bed and changed the sheets of the mattress. Lyana was changing the pillowcase before I was putting the duvet at the end of the bed.

"It looks better now," Lyana said as she was smoothing her hands on the bedsheet that she chose.

Red satin.

Not that I don't like red but it was something enticing with her playing with the sheet before she turned to me.

"Now, where are we?" She asked as she was looking at me and I was walking at her. I was ready to pounce before she was shoving the brown bag to my face.

"Shall we have dessert now?" She said devilishly before I sighed.

This woman was something else, I tell you.
