Chapter 12.
Never have I thought I would be in a big situation, I have always been in situation's before but this present one, its big.
It's 8:34am, and am letting Isa pick me up to meet Mrs Kourtney.
So many questions are flowing through my mind, would I get fired? Why does she want to see me, at her home? Questions like this always make me not want to hear the answer.
"Angie, you okay" Isa snapped me from thoughts.
She was already here few minutes but i didn't realize that, she packed her car on the streets not in the drive way. I was standing on the steps entry leading to the door.
"Yeah sure" I answered walking straight to meet her. "We should go."
"That's why am here" she said and I smiled, of course.
Entrying the car with Isa was a quiet one, I didn't want to bring up a topic cause I wasn't thinking straight now.
We arrived at a junk street and I raised my gaze to Isa, confused why she stopped. She also raised her eyebrows. "Hello" she waved at me "Am not a witch, how am I supposed to know the address if you don't tell me" she blinked just for me to get her point.
Thinking about that I dont have Mrs Kourtneys address.
I removed my eyes from Isa's immediately, texting Mrs Kourtney about it.
"Hold on a second" Isa took my phone from my hold. She screwed through the messages and I tried to take it back by snapping from my seat and making my body jump a little to her directions.
I dragged it back and said "What was that for."
She didn't say anything at first but she kept her face in shock before she finally said. "On Monday night, I thought you told me you where in your bosses house and now you don't know the address?" She questioned.
What!
Am terrible at lying, but to be sincere I didn't remember that lie. I looked at her at how she was still waiting for my reply.
I had to lie that day, I mean I wasn't meant to but I had to.
A text message saved me, it was from My boss, she texted me the address and I showed Isa the address in my phone and said "Its that way" I said showing her the direction with my hands but she didn't budge but later shaked it off and drove off.
*
Arriving at an unfamiliar house, it was big and Amazing. I wouldn't say its a mansion but it was Magnetizing, I couldn't take my eyes off it.
I always knew Mrs Kourtney was rich but seeing how her home is enchanting got me thrilled.
I waited for Isa to leave before taking a step to the front door. I knocked for 10 straight minutes there wasn't any response.
Suddenly it opened to reveal a blonde guy, he was putting on a track suit and his face was dislocated. I swallowed heavily but he looked at me with a surprises face. "Sorry house is filled" he said.
"Excuse me" I replied more shocked by his response.
"Your not here to---oh sorry my bad" he said.
I gave him a weary look at first but seeing him well he obviously looks like Mrs Kourtney... I mean the muscular type.
"Are you going to highlight me why your here." He said.
I think he is already bored by my appearance, I took a good look at him before answering. "Mrs Kourtney is at home right?."
He grimace but removed it completely before he said "You are Angela?" he said and I nodded.
He added "Of course she is at home." He said shifting a bit from the door way for me to pass through.
If I said this house isn't the shit, then I must be lying.
"You can wait here, I will go fetch her." The blonde said directing me to the couch and I smiled gently not wanting to slip through anything or anyone.
He left and heads back after 5minutes.
They surely know how to work with time.
Sacarsm is in my thoughts, wow.
"Kourtney is on her way here, shortly" he said taking a sit on the other couch in the room.
Am still wondering what this meeting is for, curiosity has taken over me I didn't know what else to do before asking "Probably you might know what this meeting is for, right" I asked the blonde.
He realized I was talking to him, he glared at me at first but removed it.
His doing that lately.
"There might be a probability that you may or should get fired." He said, mockingly.
I didn't answer to that, I know it might lead to an aguement i didn't want that. I raised my gaze to the blonde and his face was so bad.
"You got hit by a car?" I asked smiling slightly.
He realized I was joking with my question and also gave me a smile. "Noo, a fucking bastard hit me" he said, turning his full body to my view.
I didn't also know he was muscular....I mean huge or maybe I didn't see it.
"It must hurt?" I asked.
He shrugged it off, but didn't answer too. I gazed at the house again.
"It hurts pretty bad" he said making me to recall when Alex had an injury in his hand, he was so proud he couldn't say it hurts him.
Having Alex in my thoughts made me flinch a little, remembering the kiss we had and how amazing that moment was for me, how he touched my skin, how my lips formed a lighting in hi--
"By the way, am Mason." He snapped me from my thoughts.
He smiled at me, I watched his face carefully there wasn't any sign of acrimony he had before, what changed all of a sudden.
"Mason Conner?" I asked.
He was taken by surprised and said "Good sense of humor" he smirks to that.
I wore a smile on my face "Angela Sud" I said...
"I know." He said and giggles to himself.
Looks like am quit popular when am about being fired.
There was an awkward silence between us...obviously there was nothing left to say.
"Your mom is taking the whole day" I said. Standing up to adjust my self.
He did the same and said "I don't know, but do you want a drink".
"Water is okay" i said smiling lightly.
I watched him for just a second and realized he wasn't that bad. He had long legs and I was skeptical about his behavior but now am sure he doesn't just like intruders.
He came back sooner and handed me glass full of water.
"Having to work for my mom, might be lot of work" He broke the silence this time.
"Its nothing compared to university problems" I said and it made me realize he was a total stranger, I wasn't meant to be telling him anything.
"Which university?"
"I attend Illinois. You?" I asked him, just wanting to be even.
"I attend Harvard" he clarifies "I study Literature in Sophomore"
He goes to Harvard and studies Literature, more like we study Literature...but am in first year, His in second.
"I study literature too" I stated and held my mouth again.
"Its okay" he must have seen how awkward it was talking to him. "Literature is very nice" he reassured, I nodded in agreement.
"Can I ask you a question" I suggested. He nodded a 'yes'.
"When I was at the door way, you said the house was full and why did you say I wasn't here to, you know?" I asked.
He Was taken by surprised at first, but it was also shocking to me.
"I---" he was cut off.
"My instinct weren't wrong about you two being Catchy" I stood up at Mrs Kourtney's voice echoing as she walks to our direction.
"Want to fill me in" she added.
"Hi, Mrs Kourtney...we weren't really discussing" I said. Smiling shyly.
"You should know your really bad at lying" She took her sit giving Mason an un expression.
He stood up and said "I guess you would never know" He smiled slightly, walking off to give his mother a small peck on the cheek "Am off" he said.
Yeah, I would never know.
"Angela, am amazed by your presence" She said.
Gazing at her, she wore a black stretchy gown with a black suit jacket.
She's hot.
"My pleasure" I replied.
"I guess you might have a clue why you are here" she said and I nodded instantly not wanting To be more awkward than I have already been.
"Great! Yesterday I received a letter from one of my best clients" she wondered, while talking. "Kate Easton" she paused and I got heated, then she continued "Her son was in a bad shape" she looked at me bluntly. "I was about rushing out when she said, you already handled it." She stopped, raising her brows to me.
Was I supposed to talk now.
"I- was" being cut off by the.
"Mrs Angela, am surprised by your actions" she stated bluntly that I couldn't reply to that then she added "I was curious at why you weren't at work but hearing what you did made me proud at first" she paused again like she usually does.
Appearently, I was here just to be flattered...Amazing! I wasn't getting fired, this is a big realief.
"Secondly" she continued. "The Easton families don't call, that's old fashion obviously but how did you get to know?" She asked and added "That Alexander was In a bad shape?"
This house was silent for a minute, if a pin managed to drop it would have worked wonders in the ear.
I was speechless, what would I say, I was told by Alex friends, fine great idea..then she is going to ask me how i made him to calm down. For a second I didn't know he calmed down...
That moment.
I didn't realize I was asked a question when Mrs Kourtney said. "You should answer it"
My phone has been ringing.
"Uh-m." I stuttered.
"I dont have a problem with you answering it, who knows how important It might be".
Without hesitation I picked the call just to hear who It was.
"Gela"
Alex?
My heart beat stopped functioning, his voice was so soft when he called me Gela, immagining how his lips formed to pronounce them.
"Alex?". I whispered, I bet Mrs Kourtney didn't hear me.
"Is everything okay?" Mrs Kourtney asked and I was forced to end the call.
"Totally" I said forcing a smile.
Who said its all the Eastons that followed the rules...
"Okay" she said raising her gaze to me fully, she tried to read me and I behaved normally not forgetting she is a Psychologist.
"Mrs Sud, should I give you an advice" she said and I stared at her blunty and nodded. "Life sometimes play a cruel game on us" she paused and said "You should also know you dont have to be great to start, but surely have to start to be great"
"You don't have to prove anything to me." She said out of the blue.
"Mrs-" I tried saying something and she cut me off again.
"I sent that email to both you and Carson Dominic but just to see your reaction's" she added again "And you both gave it to me." She concluded.
I kept a confused expression and she said "You should also know that having a relationship with a client is prohibited." She finished.
What!
Does she-
No way, did Kate tell her. No I can't be completely sure, maybe she is just saying.
Right?
"Let me walk you out" she stood up so did I.
Having to take a long glance at the house, is nothing like Alex's house. This house has carpenent all over, is tiled also with the painting of different kind's around the walls, it's mostly a woman kind.
I was being stopped by Mrs Kourtney at the door and she said "I hope you have a nice day"
I smiled slightly.
I hope.
She smiled again and turned her gaze, then she was out off my view. She went inside her house and close the door behind her.
Still staring at the door i brought out my phone and texted Isa to come pick me up if she wasn't busy but she didn't reply and I guess she was busy.
I took a long glance at the streets and my attention hit to someone standing leaning on his car. Perhaps his looking at something on his phone.
The Eastons don't use mobiles.
What's Alex doing here.
"Alex!" I raised my voice and that's when he slowly shifted his gaze to me. I walked up to him and he waited.
"How did you get here" I asked but he didn't answer just standing, staring at me.
"With my car" he finally said smiling widely.
Oh no, now the butterflies are back.
"I mean, what are you doing here" I asked and he looked at me with wide eyes.
"Alex not a pleasure to have you here" I heard Mrs Kourtney's voice. I turned my gaze just to see her at her doorway, not smiling.
"The pleasure is mine" Alex said and stood upright just to look at her and he was seriously glaring.
What!
Do they hate each other?
"Get off my property Mr Easton, Angela you should take my advice" She yelled and I nodded.
I removed my gaze immediately from him and to his car and asked "How did you know I was here?"
He leaned down ignoring if Mrs Kourtney was still watching, to my height and raised his brows and said.
"If you join me on one ride" he said shifting his gaze from his car and back to me "I might just answer all the questions you have to ask."
Our eyes where now lock and I could feel nothing but mesmerization, he looked at me completely seductive, I flinch a little, Remembering when our lips touched and the passion i had inside of me.
There are a lot of questions i had to ask Alex and if I don't join him I woud never know.
"Okay"
I entered his car immediately, not wanting him to help me open up.
I wanted to stay away from Alex but how is it working out for me, I ended up kissing him.
He joined me in the car and we took off.
I raised my gaze just to look at him. He got an haircut.
"Alex, how did you know" he cut me off and said.
"When I called, i heard Her voice"he said turning his gaze to me smiling.
I guess 'Her' is Mrs Kourtney.
"So that turned out to be you" I replied, he gave me smirk still.
"Who where you expecting?" he said Smirking to my direction, I couldn't help it but i didn't smile this time.
"Do you have problems with your- I mean my boss" i asked and looked at him and also ignoring his other question.
It was very clear Alex wouldn't answer that question.
I removed my gaze from him and looked through the windows it was beautiful outside, I had no clue where Alex was taking me to but his always full of surprises.
Anyway I had to ask because of curiosity "Am I mean't to know where we are going?''I removed my gaze and brought it back to him.
He smirked and said "If you can recall yesterday, I told you I was sorry." He said and i gave him a confused face.
He remembered yesterday and it made me feel really uncomfortable "About the kiss, Ale-" he cut me off
"It was just a Kiss" he said smiling at my directions before adding "Right?"
Am so stupid....he thinks it was just a kiss.
That was my first kiss, that kiss made me feel things, it was more to me than him.
"Of course" I said nodding.
I completely looked through the window, not wanting to show any weakness.
Anyway the view outside was not bad, we where in a area I didn't recognize and he parked front of a building.
I turned my gaze to him but he didn't look back. "Where is this place?" I asked looking at the big building completely baronial and looking around, we where In the Loop.
"We just have to find out" he said and I came down immediately so did He.
He led me into the building just to figure out it was not just a building it was a company that I guess might be Enova cause of the signs all over, It had staff walking about and mostly the female staff keep staring at our direction.
Who am I fooling, it was Alex, they where staring at Alex.
I glared at that, to be sincere I don't know why Alex took me here. Am very sure if I asked he wont tell I didn't bother but i kept on staring at the girls drooling over Alex.
Alex is one of a kind, arrogantly beautiful. He is really sweet also In the mouth.
I glanced at Alex and he was staring at me I brought my gaze back to him and he smirked.
"Do i look that good" he says raising his gaze to the females staring at him seductively.
I grimace and said "Nope, you look awful" I teased.
He looks at me fully so did I. He didn't answer to that, he turned ahead ignoring my recent comment, he was still leading me to where ever we are going.
He opened the elevator for us, i entered so did he. He pressed the 7th floor and i swallowed hard.
I brought my gaze to Alex and he wasn't looking I turned straight again.
Having Alex this close to me was really not working for me, all I could think of his having his body really close to mine.
Alex turned all of a sudden, took a step close and closer to me until my back could reach the elevator walls, A gasp escaped my lips. He leaned one hand against the wall and the other was cupping my cheek.
This feeling is undeniable, I realized no matter what, the passion I had that's drilling from my body of Alex's touch made me crazy. He slowly and gently stroke a few strands of my hair away from my face, allowing him to touch me.
Then he cautiously and hesitantly lower his face to mine. Both of our breaths where now mingling together technically, my chest was getting heavy uncontrollably.
He didn't close the gap between us, I was eager to feel him In me, to taste his sweetness once more...
I closed my eyes waited for him to kiss me but nothing, waited to feel all the additional growl between us but nothing.
I opened my eyes, just to stare at him, he was staring back, i glanced at his body and back to his eyes.
He looked so good, so unapologetically male. There where so many rasional feelings raging inside of me.
I blinked so many times just to give him the memo, that I want it but he doesn't still move an inch.
He removed his gaze from my eyes and brought it down to the gown i was putting on. He gently and softly Placed his hands full of calluses and scrapes beneath my tights and slowly rubbing it bringing it up and slowly down.
I held his shoulders as I moaned to it.
The feelings he left there made me growl slowly.
Electricity sores through my veins, ignition every cells with an undefeatable fire that cannot be extinguished.
He takes his hands to my waist and squeezed the fabric and my skin beneath it.
"What did you say about me looking awful." He said
I closed the gap between our lips hastily,I took it lightly at first but he replied roughly.
He moaned this time.
He removed his hands from the wall and held my neck strongly as his long tongue traced a seam of my lips, asking for entrance inside my mouth. I opened up and his kiss surprised me again with pressure he forced to it.
The elevator door opens with a 'ding' to the 7th floor of the company, and we had to rip ours lips away from each other reluctantly.
He never let go of my body, seeing no one keen to enter,
He pressed the button that closes the door before someone else comes into this shaft, and he pressed the 10th floor on the button.
As soon as our privacy returns to us, we twist to face each other.
I smiled and he smirked before pushing me gently against the wall, more than willingly our lips meet, I can't help but press my body against his and he crashed me into the wall behind me harder this time. He was just as craving as I am. My fingers claw at his back to rummage through his perfect made brown silky hair,just to leave them messy.
I wrapped my legs against his waist and his torso flinch, he uses his right smooth and rough hand to cup my ass and quezzed it tightly, my whole body is shaky,sweating to the heat Alex's touch had caused. I am quivering as he removd his lips from mine, just to slowly lick my skin directly moving to my neck.
That was disgusting but it turned me on.
The fires works within me set of frantically and I moaned loudly.
Oh no.
'Ding' we heard again and our body shrugglishly moved apart.
That was hot.
He could feel it too
I adjusted myself a bit, same goes to Alex.
I stared at him as he adjusted himself and he held the elevator this time so we could move out without a word.
What did I just do...
***
Arriving at the 10th floor was surprisingly shocking, it was perfect the walls where designed in different fabrics..the floors where designed also.
I raised my gaze to look at Alex but he gaze was somewhere else that I couldn't trace...
"Mr Easton!" A very tall and huge man waved at Alex as he moved to our direction.
Alex gave me a known smile and I gave him back. The man walked up to us and shaked Alex in the hands.
I wonder why they always address Alex as Mr.
"Longtime sir, We dont see you around lately" the man said and was seriously grinning.
"Yeah sure, where is Kayden" Alex said. Looking around for a while.
"Sir, should I leave a message." The man said, giving Alex a confused expression.
"If I wanted to leave a message,would I bother driving all the way here" Alex said with a serious expression.
For some reason I dont get Alex sometimes.
"Sir, Mr kayden is in his office" A black hair lady came to interrupt the conversation.
Alex didn't bother looking at her or who she was but seeing the way she looks at him, she is also mesmerized by his beauty. Falling for Alex mesmerized face or body is really common here...
"He should know am looking for him" Alex said simply.
I raised my gaze to the man and he was staring at me and back to Alex.
He whispered something to Alex but clearly I heard it "Is she your-" Alex didn't want to hear it, he shut him off immediately.
So arrogant, that Could be his father.
It was just about two minutes that I saw a man more like a boy about Alex size but the difference between the both is he was more matured with a suit on.
I haven't seen Alex on suit on before.
"Primo!" The young guy that looks to be kayden said.
It's obvious that wasn't English, opening his arms for Alex to hug but the Alex I know didn't do any of that...Alex just gave him a glare and kayden smirks. "escuché que me estabas buscando, Primo" kayden said making me drop my jaw a little.
He speaks spanish.
I know he might not be using English but am sure, Alex and Kayden dont get along.
Surprising Alex went straight to the point that got me surprised.
"I want a vacant job position" Alex said and looked at me.
Wait, What is his plan?
There is a lot to know about Alex, he hears spanish.
"Lo siento primo " Kayden looked at Alex then to me and added "no hay puesto vacante" he states and gave Alex a big glare after he brought his gaze back to me and smirked.
Yeah today is going to be a long one....
....
A/N
Hello!
How was the chapter!
Okay let me translate the spanish here.
"Primo" means "Cousin"
"escuché que me estabas buscando, Primo" means "I heard you where looking for me, Cousin"
"Lo siento primo" means "sorry cousin."
"No hay puesto vacante" means "no vacant position"
