Mr. Executive

Chapter 52

Alexander James P. O. V

I felt on top of the world right now.

That's the only way I could describe how I feel with my angel lying on top of me.

Both of our naked slightly sweaty bodies on top of each other.

I knew she was awake just like she knew I was too.

But neither of us wanted to break the comfortable silence that surrounded us after our recent activities.

Her expression of her saying the very words I've wanted her to say has been etched in my mind forever.

And I never want to forget.

Glancing around the darkening room, I bring the blanket further on top of the both of us so she doesn't get cold.

Even since I told her I loved her I had a feeling she loved me but was too afraid to actually tell me, hell she was probably afraid to even admit it to herself.

Just like I was in the beginning but right now, I loved her with everything I had.

Mind, body, and soul.

A content sigh leaves Nora's lips and I can't help but to smirk knowing I was the source of her appeasement.

"You're quite pleased with yourself aren't you." Nora murmurs out in a hushed voice.

My smirk grows wider before turning into a grin.

"Of course I am." I say in the same hushed tone as hers.

Gently sitting up and agains the head board, I bring her up with me while she groans in annoyance before readjusting herself on my lap, curling into me.

Kissing her lightly on the forehead, I hug her closer to me.

"Say it again." I mumble out into the now cold and frigid air of the room.

"Say what?" Asks Nora, her voice coming out distorted due to the yawn breaking through.

I kiss her once more on the forehead, in awe of how someone could be so beautiful, like an angel on earth. A being so heavenly that I felt wrong at times for claiming her as mine.

I felt like I didn't deserve her.

My harsh actions and words towards her made my heart clench on the inside from dismay.

No matter how many times I told myself I was doing it for Nora, I just couldn't help but feel wrong.

And yesterday when she lashed out at me, I knew I had hurt her.

I was an idiot for acting like this engagement fiasco was a burden on me.

When in all reality it wasn't.

I'd rather go through this with her than any one else in this world.

She was my world.

"Alexander?" Nora questions once more, pressing this time.

"That you love me." I mumble.

The sound of her angelic laughter greets my ears as she sits up, letting me see her vibrant blue eyes.

"I love you Alexander James!" She cries out dramatically and then giggling at my narrowed gaze.

Leaning further, I press a kiss onto her lips before nuzzling my nose gently with hers.

"Well I love you too Nora Davis." I say, though not as dramatic as her.

Nora blushes under my gaze as she tugs the sheets closer to herself.

Noticing where the sheet is clenched around her small fist, I can't help but stare.

Not realizing my staring was all too blatant, a sound of something moving through the air reaches my ears before a small pain exudes from a spot on my head.

"Ow." I mutter, looking up at her.

Nora's flushed cheeks and cute eyes narrowed at me almost makes me laugh as she tries to be threatening but instead I smile sheepishly at her.

"I can't help that you're so beautiful." I say smoothly.

"Yeah but you can help by keeping yours to yourself." She deadpans.

Maybe I wasn't as smooth as I thought.

My phone going off makes me groan out loud.

Why can't they just fuck off, I want to be with Nora right now.

"That sounds important." Says Nora cuddling into me.

"I know." I mutter as I close my eyes.

My peace gets interrupted as my phone goes off once more.

Groaning, I reach out for my phone, careful of not jostling Nora around too much.

"Hello?" I voice out, not even bothering too look at the caller ID.

"Sir you need to get to the building as soon as possible, we have a situation going on down here." The head of security sounds stern and gruff as I hang up.

Shit.

What the hell could've happened?

I should've picked up the first time damn it.

Picking Nora off of me and putting her onto the bed, I quickly stand up and look for my clothes.

"Alexander what are you doing? What happened?" Questions Nora alarmed.

"I have to go." Is all I say as I slip my shoes on and then look for my jacket.

"Go where Alexander?"

Finally sighting my jacket, I grab it and slip it on before looking at Nora on the bed.

Her messy hair was sprawled in different directions and she looked utterly lost as well as confused, especially by the slight frown on her face.

I so badly wanted to get back into bed with her but I knew I couldn't, this was an emergency.

"I'm sorry baby but I'll explain as soon as I can." Is all I say as I go and kiss her gently on the forehead before grabbing my car keys from my pocket and heading for the door.

********
Running my hands through my hair, I get out of the car and jog towards the buildings door.

Jack greets me and points towards the interior of the building, into the lobby.

Striding past the doors, I stop short as a distressed looking receptionist, Natalie, I think, points to a jack ass.

"What the hell are you doing here Sam?" I ground out, pissed.

"I wanted to have a little chat." Sam says grinning from ear to ear.

Out of the corner of my eye I can see Natalie and a few other people leaving the lobby to give us some privacy.

"Why don't we go into that little office of yours?" Asks Sam in a smug voice, smirking.

"We have nothing to talk about." I snap, face blank.

"Oh cmon Alexander."

"Get the hell out of my building you dip shit." I growl out, getting tired of his little game.

"Is that any way to treat your cousin Alexander?"
