"Stop it Donte".
Axel tries to reprimand the tall man sitting not far from him, it was obvious how the amusement and teasing shows in his face. Why, Axel had just displayed something he doesn't usually do and that is showing some affection towards a girl he barely knew. He knows deep inside he can't blame Donte for getting amused. He saw what he did to the woman in the floor. His kisses towards her was maybe something Donte thought he would never do.
"Nicely done boss, now I know you're kind of girl. And man, the floor sure is comfy".
Donte laugh a little in a deep but low voice for his ears only. He was trying not to get the attention of their other crews, careful enough not to let them know about their amusing topic. It’s good how Donte gives him a little bit of privacy from their men.
"Sta 'zitto Donte! (Shut up)
What he said brought back the feeling that engulfed his heart when he held the woman in his arms at the comfort of the jet’s floor behind his back. He did embraced her on the floor, the scene could be rendered hilarious for the eyes of his people had all of them noticed. Axel silently cursed at himself. What has happened to him?
"Whatever you say boss". Donte finally decided to settled in his seat.
Axel wondered why he did that in the first place, he was never out of woman. But why does his senses suddenly gone wild when the feel of her soft body landed against him.There is something about her that drives his desires out. And gives him more feelings that he still has no name for.
The flight has been smooth in the next hour. And it wasn’t long before the local pilot had announced their arrival to the private airport of Sy Industries and co. Finally they have reached their destination.
From their distance above the sky, Axel noticed the tall fibrous one-seeded drupe, also know as coconut. And the huge trees that looks so green from the top. The sight brought a feeling of longing in his heart.
After what seems to be a vast lands covered in green, the view changed into a white sandy beach. The vacation houses beside the sea and the few jet skis running at the ocean floor.
A warm feeling hits his chest, it's as if the scene is familiar and he belongs to this place. And a certain sadness in his heart that he tries to ignore while coming here, how would his biological father reacts to him in person.
Axel knew, the man have no idea he exists. That he had created a son who lives on the other side of the world. The first son who bears his name.
Axel did his little research on how his biological father is living his life in this part of the Phillippines.
Mr. Alexander Brussel will have the biggest surprised in his life! But he doesn’t want to meet him as his son. He only want to know how he is personally.
Axel is a grown up man and have passed the feeling of wanting to have a father beside him. It is enough for him that he had his mother and Giovann. They are the people who served as his parents when they were still alive.
Axel, turned his eyes towards his men that are sitting comfortably inside the jet. The men he considers his true and loyal family. Their loyalty means so much for him and that's something he should treasure. But sometimes there is just a part of him who yearns for something that is more than money or material things, and even more than the loyalty of his men who works under him.
All of his people are aware of what to do when they landed safely on the ground. They immediately stand up one by one, grabbing their things at the shelf above their seats. Axel stayed for a bit before removing himself from the comfort of the luxury leather seat.
While Donte watched his every move waiting for his instructions.
When he keep still, Donte signals their men to go down first.
A small smile curved his lips when Axel saw the little woman standing beside the exit door, she has the jet pilot standing beside her and the other flight attendant too. She looks a little tense while her eyes are focused on the jet’s floor. But her beauty rendered him breathless, that all of a sudden, his attention was only for her.
"Go ahead Donte,,I'll be right behind you."
Donte arched one brow but followed what he said.
"Ok boss." He nod his head and walked out first.
He overheard the thank you greeting of the three. Axel even saw how Red professionally tilted her head high and gave Donte a parting smile. Which Donte only replied by a slight nod of his head. He is always careful with himself towards strangers and the people outside their group.
Axel slowly pace towards the jet’s door. But his eyes are only focused at one particular figure standing near the exit. Then he stopped exactly in front of her. His heart fluttered a little. Slow heat is running through his veins with just being near her. It’s like the feeling of standing close into the fire place of his home. Warm and hot, it almost burns his skin.
"Thank you for flying with us sir".
They almost greeted at same time, both the jet pilot and the other flight attendant. But the girl in front of him is tongue-tied. She just eyed him with a silent longing in her face. It made him wonder if she felt the attraction between them too.
"The pleasure is all mine Red, and by the way i will be needing a tour guide and i will very much appreciate it if you could help me out".
His mind was very quick to find a solution on their unwanted parting. Axel just wanted to see the lady again. These wouldn't be their last, and he wanted to make sure of it.
He tried to reach for the deep pockets of his trousers. That one small piece of card which has his complete name and telephone number, personal email and what's app number as well. He took it and handed the small card to her.
Leaving her eyes and beautiful face in disbelief. She is debating with her mind, if she would take his card or not.
She hesitated for a while but in the end Red accepted his personal calling card. He purposely brushed his fingers against her palm feeling the softness of her hand for a little bit. She stood still for a moment and looked up to see him eye to eye.
"T-thank you sir, I'll see what i can do to help you". She stammered.
"Oh,I'm glad you could help me. You won't regret it,the fee will be up to you so call me tomorrow. I'll be staying in one of the Villa Teresita's VIP cottages. The details we can talk over the phone".
He eyed her blushing face for the last time and turned his way to the exit door of the plane. Axel did not even bother to looked back at the two person standing beside Red. He is confident that she would gave him a call soon.
Red swallowed a huge lump in her throat, while she couldn’t turn her eyes away from his sexy back. It is difficult not to be mesmerized by their handsome Italian VIP. She could still feel the warm feeling of his fingers brushing against her palm and the memory of his warm lips against her own. It’s like the scent of his manly perfume and his warm breath still lingers in her senses.
Her fingers moved to hold his card tightly and shove it inside her pocket. The fast beating of her heart is not slowing down with her thoughts about him. And the remembrance of her sweet first kiss, so unforgettable.
"What was that?
Mrs. Robles eyed her with a hint of mysterious smile playing in her lips. She tap her shoulders and waited for her to reply. But the pilot beat her to it.
"I bet the man was smitten by you Red, it was so obvious. Be careful though, because that man just paid a fortune for this flight just to kept their real identities hidden so I don't really know those people".
Nicholas commented before going back inside the pilot room. There is a slight warning in the man's voice.
"Oh Red, i heard about the man’s offer to you. It might help you with the financial expenses of your trips and trainings outside the country. But think about it carefully. In my opinion, the man is not someone to hurt a young and innocent girl like you. He's too good looking to be the bad guy".
The woman in her forties let out a girlish laugh while still looking at her. She sighed and blinked her eyes. It was like she’s still in a daze.
"If my father will agree auntie, then maybe i will have no problem against accepting the offer.”
"Hmmm I doubt if you're Dad would agree if he saw how the man looks at you Red. Why he can't seem to get his eyes off you, and I'm sure if you two meet again. I bet he would try to win your heart over”.
The excited tone of her voice made Reda’s face turned red.
"Oh, maybe not auntie! Men like him might already be in a relationship”.
"I am sure of it Red!, but if those kind of men are not your type then maybe it’s better if you stay away. He is too experienced for you".
What i mean is you can do the job and be professional but keep your heart away, you know what i mean".
She suddenly thought about the man and how he looked at her. She was right.
Mrs. Robles tap her shoulders again before finishing up their chores inside the jet.
