"Okay, so set the meeting for the next month when our schedule is more empty." said Ben on his phone. He was standing in the living room of his penthouse, clad in a black suit, crisp white shirt, and black tie, waiting for Maria to walk down.

"Also, make sure ..." he stopped once he heard the clicking of the heels coming from the stairs and turned only for his mouth to gape at the sight in front of him.

Maria was walking down the stairs gingerly. She was wearing an elegant dark green satin dress. It was one shoulder sleeveless dress. It was floor length with a long slit running up her leg, showing a good amount of her soft skin. 

Her hair has been curled neatly with one side pulled a bit back using beautiful silver pins

Her hair has been curled neatly with one side pulled a bit back using beautiful silver pins. her eyes had a beautiful smoky shadow and her lips were painted bright red seductively. 

"Sir, are you still there?" Ben's PA's voice brought him out of his trance.

"I will call you later." he said and ended the call immediately just as Maria reached the bottom and sighed in relief for not tripping over her golden heeled sandals.

She looked up and smiled brightly at Ben who was staring at her. "Sorry I am late." she said but frowned when she got no response. "Hello?" she said and waved at Ben while walking to him. 

Ben licked his lips and gulped hard when she reached in front of him. He snaked his arm around her waist and pulled her to his body, making her put her delicate hands on his chest for balance. 

"You don't know how hard I'm trying to control myself to not drag you upstairs and tear off this dress from this beautiful body and ravish you all night for myself." he said with a husky voice and buried his face in her neck. "Fuck! It's hard to control myself when you look this ravishing. I can't promise to behave."

"Ben!" whimpered Maria as he began to bite and suck on her pulse and pulled away quickly rubbing the spot. She glared at him. "You will bruise my skin."

"Good." answered Ben, his eyes misty with lust. "Let all men know you belong to me, so they cast their eyes down."

"Don't be a caveman now." she rolled her eyes and wiggled in his strong arms in vain to release herself. "Ben, we should leave."

"Damn it!" cursed ben under his breath and pecked her lips. "I can't wait for this fucking night to be over so I can have you."

He then grabbed her hand and pulled her toward the front door, but stopped after a step and narrowed his eyes on her. "But if any man dares to look at you the wrong way, I will pull their eyes out of their sockets."

"Okay! Okay!" giggled Maria and kissed his cheek. "Let's leave, grumpy."
