Aiden bowed his head enough to capture her lips once again. It was soft and gentle at first before it turned into a more passionate one. Claire gasped against his mouth when she felt him bite her lower lip. Taking the chance, Aiden slipped his tongue inside to pacify his need to taste her.
He pressed her even harder against him while Claire's legs wrapped around his waist. The sensation of her bare skin on his hands was beyond amazing. Earlier he only looked at her appropriately, but now the fact that she was so lightly dressed was everything he could think about. His hand shifted from her face to the back of her head giving him perfect control over how and where to angle her so that they molded against each other perfectly.
He greedily explored the inside of her mouth as she gripped onto his chest. The well ironed fabric of his suit wrinkling in the process. His mind numbing scent, his hungry way of kissing her and the way his hands firmly held her in place, all made Claire's lower half start to heat up. Everything he did to her was sending shivers down her spine and she absolutely loved it.
She moaned against Aiden's mouth earning herself a low growl from him. The way she was desperately holding on to him was making him lose his focus as he continued to punish her lips. Why? Maybe because he could feel she would be his undoing. And seeing as he was sure he couldn't stay away from her anymore, all he could do was make her feel like she couldn't live without his touch. It was the only way he would let her get away with making him think about her non-stop.
He felt her burry her hands in his hair which fanned his flames a little too much. Aiden could feel his friend down stairs pleading to join in on the action, but he pushed the thought to the back of his head. It was getting too intense for him to keep holding back. She was special and needed to be treated as such.
He pulled his head back making her softly whimper from the loss of his lips. Pressing his forehead against hers he closed his eyes and took a deep breath. Every sound she made was like gasoline to him. "I think we should stop." He said in an extremely husky and reluctant tone.
Claire's chest rose and fell as she too tried to calm herself. Coming down from her lustful high, she understood what he meant. It would get out of hand if they kept going. A warm fuzzy feeling bubbled up in her stomach. He wasn't trying to rush into her pants like most men would. Proving even further he was different.
"Good call." She replied. She saw as he opened her eyes to meet hers. Grinning at each other, Aiden placed a chaste kiss on her lips before loosening his hold on her. Claire too unwrapped her legs from around him as he straightened his back. His hands were still around her waist, but now they had started to calm down.
"So." Aiden said as he looked around them. "Where exactly are we?" Paying more attention to the room they had come in to, it looked like a complete apartment.
It was an open floor space. They stood in the modernly equipped kitchen that connected to the living room area. There was a blue colored couch that faced the tv hanged on the wall and a long coffee table infront of it. To compensate for the lack of windows, the walls were covered in colorful paintings that matched the furniture, different kinds of plants and what looked like hand made drawings here and there.
Aiden assumed the artist behind those was none other than his little Princess.
There was a door to each side of the wall with the tv and another two doors to each side of the kitchen. The place was very well lit, and unlike Claire's villa, it was filled with different knick knacks that made the space feel cozy and lived in. It was small and there were no pictures in sight, but he could sense that it was a place they frequented often. Somewhere they felt comfortable in.
"This is where we're living at the moment." She started to explain. "It's only temporary though. I'm making sure of a few things before I have Lily stay somewhere else. It's not ideal, but it's safe."
Aiden hummed in response. He didn't know all the details behind what she was dealing with, but he could sense the threat was not one to be taken lightly. Staying at such a secret base was indeed a wise decision.
"Where is she?" He was yet to see his little Princess.
"She should be back from her class soon...." Claire gasped as she saw Aiden's back covered in her dirty hand prints.
"What's wrong?" He asked as he almost got whiplashed from turning to face her so quickly.
"I'm so sorry!" She apologized as she pulled her hands away from his chest where she had them placed. Her eyes widened even more when she saw she had dirtied the front of his suit too. Aiden had said he didn't mind, but she had still been careful about ruining not his clothes while he carried her.
Following her gaze, Aiden noticed her hand prints on his chest. He then looked at her and saw how she was obviously feeling bad about it.
"Hey." He said as he held her chin and made her look up at him. Giving her lips a quick peck he continued. "I already said it's fine didn't I?"
"But-"
"Stop overthinking it."
Before Claire could say anything else, the front door clicked open calling their attention towards it.
"Oh hell no." Colton said as he looked at them. "This is NOT the welcome party I was looking forward to."
"Shit" Both Aiden and Claire whispered at the same time. Aiden awkwardly rubbed the back of his neck as Claire's face turned so red it looked like she was asphyxiating. They had been caught in a very compromising position.
"Wha-wha-" She started to stutter as she watched Ben push Colton's wheelchair inside. Her head was about to explode. Even if she thought of a way to explain what was happening, she wouldn't ever be able to convince the two sly foxes staring at her. Her hand prints where all over Aiden! There was no way out of the awkward situation.
"Surprised to see me?" Colton said as his eyes landed on Aiden. "We're all on the same page then."
Claire jumped off the countertop to try and come up with some excuse as to what they were doing, but she winced a bit as soon as her bare feet touched the floor. Immediately calling all three men's attention towards her. Just like Aiden had suspected, it was freezing.
"Cece-" Colton started to say before Aiden scooped Claire back up and placed her on the countertop again.
"I told you it would be cold." Aiden said with his eyebrows pulled together.
Ben had left and re-appeared in less than a minute holding a pair of house slippers. "Here you go Madam."
Claire was about to refuse them, since she didn't want to get them dirty and would simply get used to the cold, but the three pairs of eyes on her were of men who had no intention of taking no for an answer. She simply shook her head and sighed.
'Why are the people around me so similar?' She thought to herself as she accepted them. "Thanks Ben."
After making sure she was wearing them, Aiden helped her down. He then turned to face Colton and stretched out his hand. "Sorry for the late introduction. Aiden Villan, it's a pleasure to meet you."
Colton on the other hand, made no attempt of moving. Completely ignoring the handshake Aiden was offering him. He looked him dead in the eye with a serious expression on his face. "You think I'll simply shake your hand after what I just walked into?"
