" Mom, are you sure about this?" Olivia asked in a tone laced with disbelief.
" I've never been surer about anything. This is the right thing to do." Evangeline spoke while flashing her new ring, the wedding ring which Adam Duston slipped on her finger. Olivia had no idea that the things would escalate so quickly. They had only been to one dinner, but her mother returned home as a married woman.
As much as she quarreled with the woman, she would be lying if she said that she did not care for Evangeline.
" Mom, are you happy?" Olivia inquired. After her father's death, her mother changed completely and suddenly. Gone was the cheerful and the smiling woman only to be replaced by a savvy and an acute business woman. As the years passed by, her mother had succeeded the art of masking the emotions making it difficult for anyone to approach her.
" Adam and I are going away for a couple of months to deal with the problems at our head offices in different countries. I need you to manage our office here during the time I am away." Neglecting Olivia's question, Evangeline spoke in a clipped voice leaving no room for further discussion.
" Fine, It's not like I have a choice." Olivia answered back, after all she inherited her fiery personality from her mother. " If that's all, I am leaving."
" Stay!" Evangeline's voice rose by a few octaves " Adam and I discussed about letting you and Xavier work together."
" Me and Xavier? Working together?"
" Yes, you both are rather new to the world of business and both of you have your own merits and demerits. We are going to leave the affairs of here to you both and I trust that you both will make the right decisions if you work together."
" Mom, as much as I hate your guts, I have to say that for once I agree with you. I am willing to work with him." Olivia spoke slowly and clearly. As much as she wanted to disagree with the older woman, the prospect of working together with Xavier delighted her. If it was anyone other than Xavier, Olivia would have immediately rejected to work with them.
" And young lady, you are going to move to Adam's house and live with Xavier till I return."
" M-mom?" Olivia's eyes widened as did not expect this, Working together is one thing but living thing is truly an added bonus! It's like offering water to a parched man.
" Any problem?" Evangeline arched her brows.
" Nothing. So, when should I start packing?"
" You head over to Adam's mansion. I will send your things over there." Evangeline offered and Olivia felt that her mother was very eager to send her away.
" Fine!" Olivia huffed a bit before masking nonchalance " See you after your trip."

Next day morning
Xavier stepped out from the bath and headed downstairs after getting dressed up. As he descended the stairs he heard noises coming from the kitchen. He was startled as he did not hire any servants in the kitchen and he dismissed the notion of burglary as it is impossible with all the ridiculous amount of security around his mansion. As he neared the kitchen, Xavier had to stop in his tracks and take a deep breath as his lascivious eyes roamed on the tall figure who was engrossed in arranging the containers of spices.
Oblivious to his presence, Olivia was arranging all her culinary diligently. Being the punctual girl she was, she arrived at six-o-clock in the morning. Mr.Duston's chauffeur had showed her around the house, leaving the choice of room to herself. Now all that she is waiting is for Xavier to lose his control after taking in her attire.
Unaware of the woman's thoughts, Xavier noted her appearance. she was dressed in an oversized and full sleeved grey t-shirt which stopped at her mid thighs making her long Greek goddess like legs look extra long. Her hair was tied up in a messy bun, revealing her slender and delicate neck.
The pale skin on her neck is akin to an open invitation to him, and as if under a spell he marched towards her and hugged her back to his chest. His arms snaked around her waist in a possessive manner as his lips assaulted her neck with feather kisses.
Xavier traced her neck with his lips and his hot breath sent tingles down her spine. His soft lips caressed her neck up and down and as if not satisfied, he proceeded to her earlobe and nibbled on it softly earning a moan from her.
Her moans only fueled his dormant lust and he grazed his teeth biting on her neck leaving a trail of hickeys on her pale white skin. His kisses morphed from gentle touches to hurried bites, the combination of pleasure and pain making Olivia arch her back. She could feel her body responding to his touches, almost immediately.
With his lips never leaving her skin, he slipped his hand under her shirt and traced the skin around her belly button. His other hand traced her collar bone before slipping into her collar towards her soft mounds making her breathing become ragged.
Xavier only planned to kiss her but he never expected himself to lose control but her sensual moans and soft skin snapped his last thread of self control. The situation turned out to be no better for Olivia as she felt her body heat up at an alarming rate. When she felt him slip his hand into her bra and cup her left breast, she took in a sharp breath and felt her body shudder.
Massaging her breast and flicking her hardened n****e at regular intervals, Xavier made her body go limp in his arms. Her submission to him only made him want to ravish her completely.
Turning her to face him, Xavier hauled her to his chest albeit too tightly so that now their bodies are sticking together. Beneath their attires, he could feel her soft curves and she could feel his hardened muscles.
Snaking his arms around her hips, he brought her further closer so that his groin is now resting against her heated core. She could clearly feel his erection and it was the sheer size of it against her panties that made Olivia look up at him with heated eyes.
Xavier expected her to shy away from him after learning the extent of his arousal. When she stared at him, there was no expected pinkness on her cheeks but only a unbridled hunger in her eyes which made him fall into a daze.
On seeing him not responding, Olivia grabbed his ass tightly and started grinding her core against his groin.
" Take me..." she ordered, without breaking contact with his surprised eyes all the while increasing the pace of the movements of her hip.
