Chereads / Lucian's Obsession / Chapter 8 - ~Lucian~

Chapter 8 - ~Lucian~

From the moment I walked into her office her beauty and vanilla scent almost knocked me off my feet, certainly the photo I had of her did not do her any justice. She was even even more beautiful in person and from the moment she looked up at me,I could tell that she also found me attractive which boosted my ego. Many models and beautiful women had told me how attractive they found me but I did not care but one look from Leila was all the validation I needed. When she opened her mouth to speak, her voice was the sweetest melody I had ever had the pleasure of hearing and believe me that says a lot. She spoke with such authority, calmness and composure that most women lack even though her cheeks were a bit rosy since she had realized I had caught her staring at me. As she spoke to me about the vision the Giovanni's had for the project they wanted me to invest in, I could tell that she knew exactly what she was talking about and spoke about it with such passion it was impeccable. Any doubts I had regarding this project were gone and I sure as hell was going to be investing whatever amount they needed. Her assistant brought over refreshments for all of us and the more I watched her and how she acted the more convinced I became that her ex husband, James Loretti, was indeed a fool. Honestly I'm not surprised ever since I met him he did not seem like a good person and his infidelity was no surprise. Such a mannerless man could never not even in a hundred years keep a woman as intelligent and beautiful as Leila. The moment our fingers touched, a soft exhale parted her as she looked at my face and the urge to push her against the wall, fist her hair and coax her mouth open until I claimed it completely ignited in my chest. I don't even remember the last time I felt this strongly towards a woman especially just from a single action. I had to get out of here before my intrusive thoughts win. I stood and said my goodbyes then kissed the top of her hand. My behavior shocked me more than it shocked both her and Russo considering the fact that I'm a serious germaphobe. I walked out of the building so fast in fear that if I didn't I would go back to that office and bend her over that desk and fuck her brains out till my name was the only thing she could remember. When I get into the car Russo still looks so confused and I also would be if I were him. This was so unlike me I always have the most self control and never lose my cool but just now I was about to give in to my intrusive thoughts and at that moment I knew that this innocent woman would be the death of me and I didn't seem to have a problem with that. I had to get close to her and know everything there is to know about her; what she likes, what she hates, what makes her happy, what makes her sad, her favorite food every tiny detail in her life. Right then I know how I am going to get close to her." Russo ammend the contract and include that I will be working with Leila firsthand every single day till the project comes to an end" I can tell Russo wants to question me but the look I give him silences him.
