Adrian’s POV
Closing the door shut behind me, I licked my lips watching Sari wear her converse. It’s been three weeks after the incident where I threatened Thomas and his so-called wife in the restaurant at Bled. After staying there for a whole week, we headed to Amalfi coast, Zanzibar and Scotland.
Right now, we were heading back to home. Though, personally, I would like to stay longer but my woman is too worried for Ariana. She thinks the girl would have tired-out everyone where in fact; Ariana is handful only for her mother.
So, here we were, getting ready in this late hour. Seeing her bent with a slight view of her milky cleavage; my lips instantly dried up. Even my tongue isn’t able to wet them; I want her tongue on them.
As I walked closer, she was still engrossed in tying up her knots. Grabbing her arm, I pulled her up and into me; securely wrapping my arms around her waist and crashed my lips on hers. Her curious expressions disappeared as her eyes closed the moment our soft lips touched, together. We moaned in pleasure. Two f*****g years and still the kiss feels like the first time. The unknown electric sparks never cease down; infact knowing each other has just intensified it.
My fingers caressed her waist and she leaned closer to me. Our body becoming one as I sneaked my tongue into her mouth; her hands hooked behind my nape while her fingers clutched my hair. The kiss became urgent, passionate and hot. Her hand was now caressing my chest while my own hand was now under her top; sliding up near her breasts when the knock at the door, pulled her apart.
I tightened my hold on her waist, not ready to leave just yet. We were both panting heavily as we stood there with our foreheads touching.
“Ah… drian.” She breathed my name heavily and my eyes rolled back, aroused more than it was possible hearing her sexy voice.
“Just a second.” I pleaded and she nodded, not pushing me away anymore.
The knock sounded again and I groaned in displeasure.
“Sir, the jet is ready.” Rocky spoke through the other end and I sighed audibly.
“Okay!” I called back and heard him leave.
“Can’t I persuade you to stay longer?” I asked, staring at her beautiful brown eyes.
She was blushing. Inspite of the flushed face from our heavy make-out session; her blush was prominent on the cheeks that were now red as tomato. I chuckled, pecking her lips when she whispered an inaudible ‘no’.
“Alright my daughter’s mother but I need some action back home.” I winked and she gasped before pushing me away.
“You are one hell of a horny man, professor.” She whined and I just laughed at her fake glare.
“Get that ass going before I change up my mind and have you again.” I informed and could see her shake her head and literally running off without even her bags.
“Don’t forget my bag, will you?” She shouted from outside and I just smiled goofily at her disappearing back.
***
As we sat in our jet, my arms sneaked around her shoulder and her head on my shoulder; I was lost in my own thoughts.
I heard Tan shutting down the celebrity talk show few weeks back. He was bothered when they mentioned about Sari being my student. I understand he did a great thing but I don’t really care if they know. Disregarding their vulgar comments, I wouldn’t want to change or hide any part of our story.
They will shut in few days anyway so why bother explain ourselves?
Not sure how I feel about this. Tan likes her, that’s no secret but he has been very loyal. As for now, my concern is Thomas.
I know he isn’t going to back out. There’s something dark and hideous about that guy. Despite of their apology the other day; I doubt he was being sincere.
Flashback
I was smiling dreamily at Sari who was drenched wet as she fell off her ski boat. She was laughing as well but then I stilled when I spotted Thomas as I helped her remain steady in the knee-length water. A quick review and she was wearing a very short-short, showing off her long toned legs that made me groan in annoyance.
The bastard’s getting a good view. Her face changed when she followed my eyes’ direction. Sari gripped my hand tightly and I turned to pass her a smile before returning back to my cold self.
“What is it?” I asked directly staring into his blue ocean-eyes; pushing Sari behind my back and ensuring she was blocked from his sight.
“Relax, man! I am here just to apologize.” Thomas ran a hand through his shaggy brown hair before sighing in exasperation.
“We messed up I know but trust me it was never the intention. All I wanted was maybe a good business deal, I swear.” He raises a hand over his heart and I c****d an eyebrow in suspicion.
Certainly he seemed sincere but how could I pass those events, easily? I wouldn’t!
“I just want your forgiveness. Even Stella feels bad about it and trust me, your wife is incomparable; I get that.” Half-smiling, he tried to take a peek behind but I only straightened in my place.
“Are you done?” I asked and he sighed dejectedly.
“Yes. Once, again we are really sorry. If you accept our apology, I hope we could have a friendly dinner together. No harm intended.” He raised his hands in surrender and I just nodded, watching him leave.
There was Stella, seemingly tensed and fidgeting with her fingers at a distance. From the looks, they looked honest.
“Is he gone?” I heard Sari’s meek question from my back.
“Yes, darling.” Turning around, I answered as she scrutinized my face.
“He sounded genuine.” She commented and I growled inwardly.
There goes her angelic side.
“But we can’t be sure.” I pointed out sternly and she made a puppy face.
“I feel the same way about that blonde b***h but still ready to give them a chance. You know, people deserve second chance—” She started and I shook my head in annoyance.
“Hush… I get it! Alright! Now shall we head back to skiing if you want to attend that f*****g dinner later?” I growled hoping we wouldn’t be regretting it later.
Sari eyes grew wide before she jumped onto me and kissed me soundly on my lips, throwing my anger away.
How can I not give in to her demands? She makes me go crazy with her slightest thought and I want nothing else than her happiness. After all, I can always protect her if that’s what needs to be.
“Thank you so much, honey.” She gushed and I chuckled at her craziness.
***
My jaw dropped seeing her walk in khaki mini dress and black fishnet stockings. She had black ankle boots and black overcoat on. With hair open and black lipstick; she gave off the bad-girl vibe with elegance. My eyes traveled back to her legs and the little cleavage that was screaming for my attention.
“WOW!” I whistled and she raised an eyebrow in query before giggling as she came to my side.
“Are you impressed?” She asked, caressing my arm in process of hooking her arm with mine.
Her brown eyes staring deep into mine and I am pretty sure my gray eyes were turned darker with lust.
Something about her new look was itching me to claim. The bad-girl persona; I so badly wants to tame it!
“I, very much am.” I pulled her tightly into me and she gasped with the force.
I could see her face contour to desire when she bit her bottom lip; eliciting my arousal down in my pants.
“Mr. Martin?” We heard that f*****g damn voice and I had to hurry up.
“Let’s get it done with.” I claimed her lips into mine and smirked when she moaned in between the teasing kiss.
“Laters, baby.” I winked and she pouted before we headed out.
The moment we were downstairs, my grip tightened on her hands. She smiled assuringly and I just nodded. My concern was Thomas and his wife. The minute they saw us, I swear I saw a twinkle in his eyes. It was brief; very brief but I think I saw it. But maybe I was wrong. He looked normal thereafter.
Even, Stella’s face showed disbelief and I felt satisfactory at her reaction.
‘Take that b***h!’ I kissed at the back of Sari’s hand as I helped her take her seat across the Jenkinson couple.
“We are flattered that you decided to join us. It means you forgave us, isn’t it?” Stella asked and Sari nodded.
“Thank you so much Mrs. Martin and I personally wanted to apologize to have made you feel uncomfortable.” Thomas rushed and no matter how hard I try to calculate his move; there was nothing suspicious.
“Never mind.” I muttered relaxing, lightly.
They beamed and soon the dinner started. It actually went well. We learnt how accomplished the two were. Though, I made sure Sari’s life was still hidden from them. Otherwise, they seemed great people.
Nevertheless, as we were heading back; I suddenly turned only to find Thomas holding Stella’s hand. His eyes were not on her and his face was turned serious; a man of business.
Flashback Ended
That look still bothers me. He seemed determined. Might be for something else but the uneasiness hasn’t warned off.
“Mr. Martin, is that class still on?” Sari asked and I smiled thoughtfully; playing with her hair strands.
“Umm… Why?” I asked and she turned to face me with shocked expression.
“Please cancel it. I told you I am not sure about my juniors seeing us together.” She was baffled and I laughed, shaking my head.
“Sorry love, it’s done. Anyway, the whole world know about us now; so why worry?” I asked and she huffed.
“There are girls who fan-girl about you! I hate that! If you don’t want your operation room to end bloody; call it off!” She threatened with a fiery glance but I just laughed.
“I am habituated to bloody sites, honey. Remember, escaping you from your family, Tony and then seeing you in your periods? f**k, I even stayed during Ariana’s delivery. So, I am cool with that.” I winked and she scowled, sulking inwardly.
“Fine! If anyone try to hit on you then don’t blame me, later.” She said angrily and I just coolly answered ‘okay’ pissing her more.
I love seeing her ‘this’ side; possessive side! My woman looks f*****g hot when she goes ape-s**t over me. Inspite of the freaking age-gap between us of almost eleven years; she wouldn’t hesitate to command me and act all elderly!
She can make me feel like I was a child, a girlfriend and her employer; I don’t care! Infact I love it and admire it whole-heartedly when she takes the charge because my girl looks seductively insanely-hot in her alpha mode. I feel blessed, cherished and loved!
God! I wouldn’t trade a thing for her. She is my everything!
From being a nuisance teenager to my dumb student and a contractual wife to my whole life; one thing is persistent—she never fails to amaze me!
I am just madly in love with her and would always protect her! That’s my promise.
“I love you.” I kissed her head and she glared at me, still angry.
“I don’t!” She mumbled and I laughed.
“I know you do.” I muttered under my breath and ruffled her hair.
She hissed and whined.
“Ah-uh! Adrian!!!” She groaned in annoyance and I just laughed inwardly.
My clumsy little woman!
