That Was Really Something

TINA

The first thing I noticed was the bright light from the window. I turned away from it, and then noticed an arm around me. It took a second before I saw that it was Alejandro.

The memories of last night came to me, and I flushed pink. That was really something. Alejandro was really something. I felt greed for his touch rise within me. He had saved my life, treated me like a woman, and finally lit up a fire within me that I didn’t know I had.

I suppressed a giggle as I saw his eyebrows knit together in his sleep. What was he dreaming of? His nose twitched like a bunny’s, and I found the urge to control the laughter even more difficult.

“You’re staring.” He startled me as he suddenly spoke. His eyes were still shut.

“I can’t help it,” I replied. “You look adorable.”

His eyes snapped open. “Please don’t ever say that in public.”

“What about in private?” I wriggled my eyebrows at him.

“That is something we could discuss in the future.” He looked at me thoughtfully. I could see his mouth twitch a bit in an attempted smile.

“Good morning,” he said.

“Morning,” I replied. “You know we’re going to be late for work.”

“That can be permitted,” he said. “I’m the CEO, remember?”

“I know.” I rolled my eyes with a smile. My mind drifted to Kelly. She was definitely going to notice when I walked in late.

I had an epiphany at that moment, and I suddenly started up, startling Alejandro.

“What’s the matter?” His worried gaze lingered on me.

“You ejaculated inside me.”

“Dios mío, please don’t say it in that way,” he groaned, putting his hand over his face. “I did. So what’s the problem?”

“What if it wasn’t my safe period?” I asked.

“It was?”

“That’s not the point!”

“Fine.”

He sighed and sat up. He leaned toward me and kissed my shoulder.

“If it wasn’t, then we let the inevitable happen. We’re both adults, and we would handle it that way.”

My heartbeat tripled, and I looked into his eyes. Was he implying what I thought he was? Would he be willing to take responsibility if I got pregnant? Would I want that? I had been thinking it was time to find someone to settle down with.

Goodness, I didn’t think this through. But I couldn’t blame myself. If someone had a guy as sexy as a Greek god all over her, she’d tend to lose her sense of reasoning.

We heard a ringtone.

“That’s my phone,” Alejandro muttered. He stood up and made his way to his pants, which were draped over a chair.

My eyes followed his naked bottom as he bent down to retrieve his phone from his pockets. Whatever he said to the person on the other end was totally beyond me, as I kept my eyes glued to his buns. They were so round and firm. Good thing I was not the only one who had a sexy piece of meat as a backside.

He ended the call and spun around—and I nearly fainted. My eyes scanned his body from his well-chiseled chest, delicious pectorals, and finally the main event. Now I understood why I’d almost lost my mind and screamed a lot yesterday. That thing he packed between his legs was a weapon.

“Tina!”

My eyes quickly looked at his face. His eyes had an amused glint to them despite his stern demeanor.

“Oh, erm…what?” I blinked rapidly.

“I was talking to you. That was my father. He was calling to know where I was. You know, as we didn’t go home yesterday.”

“Oh,” I said. I knew he lived with his parents. That was common for unmarried men—even adults—in his culture.

“But I guess your attention was somewhere else.” He smirked, and I saw that devilish look in his eyes. He walked toward me like a predator, licking his lips.

My core tightened as I remembered what those lips did to me last night. I squealed in surprise as he pinned me to the bed and hovered over me.

“It seems you didn’t get enough last night.” He kissed my forehead and then moved forward to my lips. He claimed my mouth and slipped his tongue inside.

Our combined moans echoed in the room. I held tightly to him as our tongues engaged in a romance of their own. He pulled away and looked into my eyes.

“How about I make sure you’re properly satisfied this time?” His eyelids lowered.

He kept his eyes on mine as his head dipped downward toward my groin. I bit my lower lip and spread my legs wide in anticipation. He had just kissed my lips. Now it seemed like he wanted to do the same to the lower pair. And I was not going to deny him that request.

I wouldn’t mind being late today.

***

After my second round with Alejandro in the morning, we had left the hotel, and I had made my way home. A quick shower later, and I was at the office.

As predicted, Kelly had queried me on my sudden lateness, and it didn’t help that I managed to miss six of her calls.

“Come to think of it,” she raised her brows at me, “you’ve been like this since you arrived late. Did something happen yesterday?”

A naughty grin appeared on my face as I averted my eyes. Something did happen, and I had the feeling it was going to happen again—hopefully over and over again. My eyes envisioned those green seductive ones that looked straight at me earlier in the morning while he took me to the high heavens. I felt a burning at my loins, and I squirmed in my seat.

“Okay, something did happen.” Kelly narrowed her gaze at me. “Come on,” she said. “I remember when I was leaving yesterday, he’d come up to talk to you.”

“Well…” My cheeks flushed pink. “We did it.” My voice came out in a whisper.

Kelly’s face broke into a grin.

“Oh my gosh!” she piped. “Are you serious?”

“Kelly, keep your voice down.” I glared at her.

“Sorry,” she replied. “But seriously, I can’t believe you finally took the next step. This is so naughty.”

She was practically bouncing in her seat.

“So, how was it? Was he good?”

“Oh, you have no idea.” My hands cupped my face as the wild images flooded my mind again.

“Finally.” She smiled. “He finally got a taste of that big butt of yours. I knew it was a matter of time. No one can resist it.”

“You just had to fit in a butt joke,” I said dryly.
