chapter 23

James asked the moment he started the car, "Why did you cry?"Alexa tried to hide her face by looking out of the window and said, "I didn't"James again countered, "Your cheeks and your nose are red, and they get red only when you cry"Alexa was a little surprised thinking that he notices so much, but she didn't reply to him.He continued this time in the stern, "Alexa, I am asking you for the last time tell me why you cried, otherwise I have other ways"Alexa tried to control her tears she said keeping her face to another side so that he cannot see her face, "It's none of your business"The car was stopped with a jerk and before Alexa could turn and asked the reason she was already dragged and sitting on James's lap and his lips crashed on her lips.Alexa wanted to push him but his strength was nothing in front of her, Alexa was going out of breath, but James was kissing her passionately, almost after ten minutes he let her go.She leaned on his shoulder to steady her breath and James sat there hugging her tightly, few minutes passed than James asked gently caressing her hairs, "Love, please tell me who made you cry"Alexa sat straight on his lap facing him and said, "you made.." and before she could continue Daniels car stopped next to their car and Daniel said loudly, "Oh, love birds please don't start making out in the middle of the road""Please hurry up otherwise, we will be late to come back, once we are back you can do whatever you want in your room" Alexa's face turned red in embarrassment, she immediately got back to her seat straightening her clothes.James found her so cute at this moment that he forgot all the other things.Soon everyone reached the decided café, all were chat-chatting but two men were lost in their women's beauty.Both James and Lucas didn't leave their eyes from their women even for a moment.Daniel smiled looking at them, he was happy seeing his brother and sister, who got their right life partners, thought of getting married crossed his mind, and immediately a face came in his mind.He snapped at his thought and said to himself, "No, I will marry anyone but not her, never"After having coffee and spending some time there everyone started their cars to come back.In an hour's time James reached Alexa's home when he turned to Alexa he found her sleeping peacefully, he slowly unbuckled his seat belt and came out of the car and slowly picked sleeping Alexa in his arms and headed to Alexa's bedroom.He gently put her on her bed and slipped in the duvet next to her, holding her in his arms, he said while caressing her cheeks, "You have no idea, how much I missed you today"Saying this he kissed her forehead and slept holding her tightly.On the other side, when Lucas parked the car in front of Carol's house and turned to her, he found her sleeping.She looked so beautiful, street light falling on her face made her skin more radiant and her lips were parted like they were inviting him.Lucas couldn't hold himself at this moment, he leaned closer to her and kissed her lips gently but as she was sleeping she didn't respond, and his hunger to enter her sweet mouth increased with every passing moment.He bit her lower lips a little and Carol opened her mouth because of pain but she was still sleeping, Lucas entered her mouth and started exploring every corner of her mouth.After some time feeling suffocated, she opened her eyes and found Lucas in front of her face and that too so close.She immediately pushed him and ran out of the car at 180 speed, without looking back.Lucas smiled and touched his lower lips, he had never felt like this in his life, mere her touch and his whole body was on fire.She doesn't need to do anything to seduce him, she just needs to stand in front of him and it arouses him to an extent, which it starts to pain him.Lucas started the car looking in the direction of Carol's house and mumbled, "See, you tomorrow my secretary."On the other side, when Carol reached her bedroom she was shivering and panting, she was all red her cheeks, her ears, and her hands were trembling.It was her first kiss, although she was a very strong woman but she was never in any kind of physical relationship with an any men, she was hell shocked with this kiss between her and Lucas.She touched her lower lips and suddenly Lucas's soft lips touching her lips came to her mind. She again blushed hard; she was worried about how she will face him tomorrow at work.She always wanted to keep her personal and professional life apart but here she was getting married to her boss, she doesn't want to be a housewife.She had made her mind that aftermarriage she would change her job, she cannot work with her husband, she didn't want any privilege of being the President's wife.After trying long Carol somehow had some sleep.She woke up with the annoying sound of her alarm clock, she got up and got ready and had breakfast with her Morn before leaving for the office.She tried to reach the office before Lucas so that she doesn't have to face him and she will do all the arrangements before he comes to the office.She ran to her desk, kept her bag on her working desk and ran towards the cafeteria and brought Lucas's black coffee with his favorite cookies and again ran back to Lucas's office, she was sure that Lucas was not in the office so she entered without knocking the door and for her luck, Lucas was not there.She kept the tray on the table and was about to turn and leave when someone grabbed her waist from behind, her breath stuck in her throat.There came Lucas's husky voice, near her neck, "Good morning, Carol"
