Beauty and The Beast

Sixteen

I stirred to wake up from the most comfortable position i've ever slept with. I found her sleeping on me. Her hand sprawled on my chest while her left cheek rested on my shoulder. I hugged her tight, she snuggled closer to my neck so her nose now resting under my chin. I kissed her head and got up from the bed slowly, trying not to wake her. She was sleeping with her stomach down. I wore my jogging pants and recollected our clothes on the floor. It was 9 am. I've never woke up more than 7 and i never had a more than four hours sleep in my life, she really had an effect on me. I slept peacefully last night. I sat on the chair next to my bed, and watched her affectionately.

She was sleeping soundly, her soft breathing calmed me down. I tried to replay last night. I felt so intimate with her, i felt very protective of her. I've never felt anything like this before. A man who only saw blood his whole life, a man who only felt pain and cruelness. This feeling was premature for me. I knew deep inside I care irrevocably for this beautiful woman.

There was a knock on the door, and Costner came in.

"Sir."

I raised my hand to stop him, my eyes still fixed on her. Not wanting to leave her, but i stood and ushered him to the door. He surprised to see her on my bed.

"Let her sleep, don't let anyone come near my bedroom. She is really tired." I said to Costner.

She really was tired. I didn't know how much i woke her up last night to fuck her. My dick kept stirring up, even right now when i recalled our encounter last night it turned hard.

"Yes, Sir. I need to inform you that Andrea called a couple of times to inform you about the lunch meeting and asked for a document you need to sign."

Andrea never thought that i'd woke up late, she must be on fire right now.

"Tell her to cancel all of the meetings for today. And i will fax her the documents by noon." I said.

Costner was taken aback, like his ears heard mistakenly. But he adjusted soon and nodded.

"Very well, Sir. I'll get Greta to send your breakfast to your room. Anything else, Sir ?"

I shook my head and got back to my room to take a shower. When i got out of the shower, she was standing there. Looking out the window with a bed covers wrapped around her body. The morning light enchanted her beauty. I wrapped my arms around her waist from behind and kissed her head. She turned and stood nervously. Why was she still nervous around me ? Was she still scared of me ?

"Are you sore ?" I asked.

"A little." She replied blushing as she tighten the bed covers and bit her lip.

Good, i wanted her to feel sore. So she remembered i was there last night, so she won't forgot how it felt. The moment i found out that she was a virgin, i had the urge to take it. To claimed her. No other guy can take it from me. She was mine. I smiled to her innocence.

"Do you want to get shower first or breakfast ?" I asked.

"I think shower first."

"You can use my bathroom." I pointed to my bathroom.

"Yes, Sir."

I gave her my disapproving look. I clenched my jaw and looked away as the door knocked. I opened the door and allowed Greta to come in placing the breakfast on a balcony table. I sipped my coffee while reading the newspaper. But my mind wasn't on that papers, but to her.

She called me with my name last night, why'd she called me like that now. Did last night doesn't change anything ? Did last night mean nothing to her ? She came in to the balcony wearing a bathrobe. She sat in front of me and said nothing. Sipping her tea and picked some fruits. She knew i was staring at her intensely because she put down her fork.

"I'm sorry if my presence make you feel uncomfortable, Sir. I'd better go and leave you to eat your breakfast." She started to stand.

"Sit down and eat your breakfast, Cassandra." I ordered.

She was taken aback at my tone. But obeyed immediately. She took the fork and ate silently looking down at her plate. Shit, i needed to stop scaring her. I finished my breakfast and got up not caring to throw my napkin on the table. She exhaled her breath and breathed heavily. I didn't know that she held her breath all along breakfast. I left her there sitting with confusion.

Why was i acting like that ? Why did i treat her like that ? I was acting like an asshole. But i can't helped when anger surfaced in me, she just sat there saying nothing and called me 'Sir' like nothing ever happened between us. Like last night didn't mean a thing to her.

I went to my walked-in closet and changed my attire into work attire. I called Andrea, she answered in a second ring.

"Mr.Black ?"

"Get the meetings back on schedule. Prepare the materials for the meetings. Meet me at the office in thirty minutes." I hung up the phone.

I just needed to clear my head at work. I thought I'd stop thinking about her if I worked. But here i was having a lunch meetings with my mind lingered on her sweet body, her moans. I was back to reality when Andrea poked me.

"The only problem right now is the local natives, Sir. They'd still refused the compensation." One of my colleague reported.

"What about the papers ? The government has signed them, right?" I asked.

"Yes, Sir. They are working out the natives problem now."

"I'll take care of it." I said.

"I'm afraid you need to survey the location to  check on the progress, Sir." Andrea said.

"Yes, Mr.Black. We need your approval for everything before we make decisions. It would be nice if you check on our project." My colleague suggested.

"Very well, then. Is there any important meetings this week, Andrea ?" I asked her.

"No, Sir. Nothing that can't be postponed."

"Arrange my flight for tomorrow. And email me my schedule for the week ahead tonight."

"Yes, Sir."

Maybe a week away from her will be good. I needed to clear my head.
