NB: The main characters of my book HAC. It hasn't happened yet and may not happen in this context in the book but something would be in play.

The sun bathed the sleek skyscrapers in a warm golden glow as the city hummed with its usual bustling energy.
Inside the prestigious tower, Drax Enterprises, the atmosphere crackled with anticipation, for today was no ordinary day.
Drax, the enigmatic and incredibly wealthy immortal, was known to make rare appearances at the office, and his presence always stirred a whirlwind of excitement among the employees.
He sauntered through the halls of his prestigious office, his black suit hugging his muscular frame perfectly. His silver hair framed his chiseled face that seemed untouched by time.
He had just closed a multi-million-dollar deal and decided to ease off, and as he glanced around at his employees, his eyes landed on his favorite accountant, Ariel.
Ariel, a captivating young woman with fiery burgundy hair and an air of determination, sat at her desk in the sleek accounting department.
Her nimble fingers danced across the keyboard, effortlessly maneuvering through spreadsheets and financial reports.
Her dedication to her work was unmatched, and she took pride in her role as the backbone of the company.
Her full lips pulled into a small smile, and Drax felt his heart rate pick up as he approached her, his mind racing with ways he could charm her.
Suddenly, the office doors swung open, and there he was—Drax himself, exuding an aura of authority and confidence.
His striking blue eyes swept across the room until they locked onto Ariel's, freezing her in place.
With a charismatic smile that could melt glaciers, Drax strode purposefully toward Ariel's desk, his every step commanding attention.
They had grown close over the years; their banter in the office often centering on flirtatious.
"Hey, beautiful," he purred, leaning against the edge of her desk. "What's got you smiling like that?"
Ariel's cheeks flushed as she looked up at him, her big blue and green eyes sparkling. "Just thinking about our latest project," she admitted.
Drax grinned. "Oh, that's right. You do love a good challenge, don't you?"
He leaned closer, his hand coming to rest gently on her arm. Ariel's breath caught in her throat as she looked up at him with a mixture of apprehension and desire.
"I've always been impressed with your work, Ariel," he said softly, his voice low and seductive. "But I've been thinking about getting to know you on a more personal level."
He walked around to where she was and sat on her desk.
Ariel's heart was pounding in her chest as she felt Drax's hand slide down her arm to her waist. His lips were tantalizingly close to hers as he leaned in, his eyes smoldering with desire.
"Would you like to grab a drink with me after work?" he whispered.
Ariel could only nod, her mind racing with excitement and disbelief that he was that interested in her.
Not that she didn't notice but... He always felt like he was in a different level with her.
However, something stirred inside her as he pulled away, her gaze following him.
He couldn't just walk in and get her hormones riling up then go scot free. She decided to take things up on a different level.
Quickly, she reached for his arm before pulling it back toward herself so his palm rested on her waist close to her side just below her breast.
She could feel his body heat through his suit as she stared into his eyes, her own burning brightly.
"That sounds lovely," she replied, her voice husky.
Drax smiled, his eyes twinkling as he stood up from the desk.
"I'll see you later, beautiful," he murmured, giving her a wink.
"Is that all you want..." Her voice trailed off. "Didn't think your hands flirtatiously movement would stop just there," she hinted and but down on her lower lip. "You can keep going if you'd like."
Ariel watched with satisfaction as Drax's face turned red with desire. With an amused smile on her lips she continued to tease him until finally Drax gave in with another wink letting his fingers traced the outline of her bra and pulled away.
Ariel watched him leave the office with his head held high, her heart beating fast as she tried to calm her nerves.

After work, Ariel hurried, took her bath and changed into a simple but classy red handless gown and made sure to arrive early at the specified location he texted her.
She was led to one of the VIP rooms and to her surprise, he was already waiting.
Seated cross legged on the black velvet sofa, Drax looked every bit like he did in those business meetings—imposing yet charmingly handsome. His silver hair glistened in the dim light that filled the room while his piercing blue eyes were fixed on hers.
His chiseled jawline accentuated his strong features perfectly as well as his broad shoulders that seemed too big for his frame. He wore a dark gray suit that hugged his muscular physique tightly as it molded around his powerful arms and chest.
"Hello, love."
He rose from where he sat when she entered the room then walked over to her slowly before taking her hands into his own, kissing them gently before releasing her grip.
"I'm glad you're here," he said, looking into her eyes, "I've been thinking about our last meeting all day."
Ariel felt herself blush slightly under his intense gaze but couldn't look away. She had never seen anyone so captivating or so commanding in all her life.
It wasn't just how good-looking he was but also something else... Something deeper and more primal than she could ever describe.
It left her feeling breathless and weak in the knees whenever they spoke to each other and she knew she wanted to be with him forever.
Drax smiled as she stared back at him, a small smile playing on his lips as if sensing what she was thinking.
"You know, I have a lot of things planned tonight, beautiful, if we don't get started soon..." he murmured, trailing off suggestively.
Ariel's heart skipped a beat as he leaned closer, their bodies almost touching. Her breathing quickened as he reached out again, this time placing both palms on her cheeks. His touch sent shivers down her spine making her feel hotter by the second.
She closed her eyes briefly enjoying the sensation until suddenly his mouth crashed into hers. Ariel gasped in surprise as his tongue swept across the seam between her parted lips and into her mouth.
The kiss deepened quickly and passionately and she wrapped her arms around his neck pulling him close to her body.
