Chereads / The Alpha King Kai Silver / Chapter 17 - Chapter Seventeen

Chapter 17 - Chapter Seventeen

 About two weeks passed and I spent my time trying to get to know the people that lived in this large house. I slowly unpacked my things as if I wasn't going to be staying here long when I knew that this was my home now. My things added to the bare room that I spent a lot of my time in. Kai was hosting a large party in two days and everyone was getting ready for it. Servants cleaned and stocked the kitchen with as much food as possible. Feeling hungry, I made my way to the kitchen. I had my earbuds in, singing quietly to myself every once in a while. Once in the kitchen and I saw that I was alone, I thought of what to make. I searched the cabinets, pantry, and fridge. I decided that I just wanted an assortment of fruit. I began to sing and dance as I collected the fruit that I wanted. I sniffed each one to make sure it was good. Kai was helping me strengthen my wolf and my senses, but I had to use my senses all the time. I turned and grabbed the cutting board and knife. I washed my fruit and began cutting it while singing and dancing. When I was done, I grabbed a bowl and put the fruit in it. I grabbed the cutting board and knife, spinning gracefully to the sink where I placed them. 

 "Cause a princess doesn't cry, a princess doesn't cry." I sang, going back to my bowl. "Over monsters in the night. Don't waste our precious time on boys with pretty eyes." I lifted my hands as the song continued. They hung loosely as I closed my eyes and spun as quickly as I could. When I stopped and opened my eyes, I saw Kai standing on the other side of the island counter with something in his hand. He just stared. 

 "Oh… hi." I pulled my earbuds out and paused my music, placing my earbuds in my pocket. "I didn't see you there."

 "Where'd you learn how to dance and sing like that?" He set the object down on the counter and that was when I realized it was a laptop. I grabbed my bowl and a fork, putting a piece of strawberry in my mouth as I shrugged. "You should continue to dance and sing. You're good at it."

 "Only when no one is looking." I smiled slightly. "How was work?"

 "It was work." He rolled up his sleeves and loosened his tie. The action caused a feeling to build in my core. He had to know that I liked it when he did that because he always did it when I was looking at him. Over the past few weeks, I've been allowing myself to feel things that I had never really felt before. That included being turned on. 

 "H-how is Kara?" Even though it's been weeks, I still care about her. 

 "I didn't really see her today." He looked down at his phone. He won't admit it, but I know that he and Lucah talked about how Kara and I were doing. I didn't know if Kara cared enough to ask Lucah about me, but I always asked about her. "I know that you still care about her so I'm sorry."

 "It's okay." I didn't let it show that I was sad.

 "Have you found your dress for the party yet?" He looked up at me. 

 "No." I took another bite. "I haven't had the chance to go out."

 "We can go now." He offered. "After you finish eating."

 "Sure." I nodded. 

 "I just have to grab something from my office." He turned and began to walk away, distracted by his phone. A feeling moved from my chest and down my body, burying itself deep in my core. It was a surprising and different feeling, but I understood it as I watched Kai walk away. The muscles that corded its way up his arms to his broad shoulders and down his back. He was sexy and I wanted to see what was under that shirt. I decided that I was going to mess with him, even if it got me into trouble. I shoved several bites into my mouth before setting the bowl on the counter and followed after Kai. I would come back to it. He was already at his desk, holding two pieces of paper and looking back and forth between the two. I quietly entered the office and closed the door behind me. I slowly stalked towards him. The thought of having sex in his study was sexy. He looked up from his pages once I was a few feet away. He turned to me, but I kept going. 

 "What are you doing?" He asked. I got up close to him, my fingers on one hand dancing across his tie. My other hand rested on his chest as my eyes flicked up at him. I wondered what he saw because his gaze became more serious. Give him something to get started. My mind raced, thinking. My fingers moved to the hem of my loose shirt where I gracefully pulled it off over my head. This would be the one time I was graceful enough to do this. Under my shirt was a black, lacy bra that pushed my breasts up. I didn't have small breasts. Double D's. I didn't need the push up part, but that's what I had gotten. The night that Kai kissed my scars played in my head. The feeling deep in my core grew. When I looked back up at Kai, I could see that his jaw was tight. A muscle feathered in the left side and I wondered how hard it was for him to stay in control of himself. He set the papers down as I grabbed a hold of his tie and pulled him down to me. 

 "Well? Are you going to touch me?" I whispered as bravely as possible. Ever so carefully, his large, warm hands slid onto my sides. He was usually the one to initiate times like this and seemed unprepared for me to change it up. I pressed my lips against his, my free hand on the side of his neck. His arms slid around to my back, one moving up between my shoulder blades. He pulled me closer, an arm across my lower back grabbing the back of one of my thighs. He lifted me, turned, and set me on his large desk. I pulled my lips from his, pulling papers from under me. He nearly slammed a hand down on the stack of papers and flung them off of the desk, the muscles in his arms bulging. Not only did the papers go flying, put pencils, folders, and various other things did as well. I could hear them clattering across the floor. I looked up at him, seeing a near primal look in his eyes. He kissed me again, pulling at the buttons of his shirt. He breathed heavily when he pulled away, working on unbuttoning his shirt. Becoming frustrated, he grabbed his shirt with both hands and ripped it. The sound of ripping fabric seemed loud in my ears. As he pulled the rest of the shirt off, I studied his body. Ripped muscles from his collarbone to his pants. Without thinking, I touched his abs. They were hard and hot under my touch and very much real despite my brain telling me it wasn't. I found his eyes again and only a second passed before he was pushing me down against his desk. I had never really touched him before. Not in an intimate way. He kissed from my ear, down to my neck and shoulder, one hand next to my head while the other was on my hip. My legs caressed his body between them as I exhaled a breath, feeling the ecstasy in his kisses. He kissed down my collarbone to my breast where he moved my bra. His kisses left warm marks on my skin, feeling like warm honey. His lips closed around my nipple as he sucked, pulling a moan from my lips. A rumble vibrated through me and I realized that he was growling. It vibrated up to my head and down to the spot between my legs. I wasn't afraid this time. I wanted this. He started messing with the button to my jeans, not quite getting it with one hand. Suddenly, his phone began to ring. He didn't answer it, managing to unbutton my pants. It rang a second time and he silenced it. On the third ring, he pulled his phone out of his pocket.

 "What?!" He demanded into the phone, unhappy to be interrupted. I heard a voice on the other line. It sounded like Lucah. "This couldn't wait?" More talking. Kai growled, this time upset. 

 "I'll be there soon." He grumbled and stood up straight. He hung up and I sat up, fixing my bra. I noticed that I, too, was breathing hard. "I have to meet with a business partner. I'll be back later." He picked up his tattered shirt. After looking at it, he threw it in the trash. I got off of the desk and grabbed my shirt off of the floor as he went to the closet. I pulled my shirt on, seeing Kai pull out another white, button-up shirt and pull it on. I looked at his body once more. Delicious. He came to me, buttoning his shirt and then tucking it in. 

 "We'll resume this once I'm back." He leaned down and kissed me. Heat blossomed across my cheeks as he pulled away and then left.
