The Billionaire's Lost Lady

Chapter 21: Aaron Blane

Jace

My foot was tapping, body rigid and soul on fire. I was waiting for her to show up. It was almost five minutes to nine and something was confirmed in me that she would show up. She had to. I wasnt done hurting her.

Selene hadn't seen much of me. That kiss was just a starter. I wanted her. Her body, her soul, I wanted to own all of it. She'd hurt me for ten years and I didnt care for reason. I was going to rip her apart from the inside.

Despite my uncompromising anger towards her, I couldnt ignore what she was. Beauty was a small word for this girl. She only grew to become more of the unearthly dream that she'd been. Her short raven hair, creamy white skin and sparkly blue eyes were the cherry on top. Her red lips were the whipped cream and that desirable, ravishing body was the cake all in all. I could just eat her up. Holding back the urge of ripping her apart in the most sensual manner wasnt easy. Sean's presence in the apartment helped controlling my senses. That's why I took him with me. I couldnt afford losing my ground to her. She thought she could control my feelings? Well, she hadn't met the real Jace Anderson yet.

8 57 am.

I groaned. What the hell was wrong with my clock. I felt like throwing my phone at it which struck the same numbers. I checked my silver Rolex and bit my lip. Same time everywhere. I got desperate to a point that I searched New York time on Google only to find it striking two minutes to nine. Feeling agitation growing harder in me, I stood up and unbuttoned my dark polyester gray suit's blazer. I pulled it off and threw it away on my chair. Loosening my black tie, I unbuttoned the top button of my white button up shirt and took a deep breather. I needed shower.

And sex.

Maybe both.

Shit! I wanted to scream. I was irritated.

A knock interrupted my fingers pulling my hair. I invited the person in and Sean revealed himself. His head was bobbing like a bobblehead toy as he hid behind the door and checked me out.

"What?" I spat, waving my arms.

"Nothing. Except that uh... she's here." He walked in with a teethy smile. He released the door fully open revealing Selene taking notes from Candice by her desk. God she looked sexy as hell in that one piece pantsuit. What the hell.

"Of course she is. No one goes against my decision." I replied cockily, keeping the joy of my victory hidden.  Her eyes lifted from Candice's sitting posture and met mine for a second. Even through the big distance between us, her blue eyes penetrated my soul.

"Uh-huh. Sure." Sean interrupted, rubbing his jaw.

"Dont you have a company to run?" I shrugged.

"Might uh... Jace you might want to attend yourself." He looked away, raising a hand to block his eyes' view towards me. The direction his blocking arm was elongated to, told me the situation. I needed attending. I turned around and felt my cheeks heat up.

What the hell? I wasnt a man who felt ashamed of his power. I flared my nostrils and held my anger at bay.

"I'll see you when you are... calm." Sean spoke in a pause and I heard the laughter in his voice. I turned to find him gone but th door still opened.

Inhaling a deep breath, I knew I needed some work done before I could continue the day.

"Candice!" I called out and she stood up in a flash. Selene held her temple with a wide jaw and i realized that Candice must've hit the pen on her way to her feet. I felt joy as Selene eyed me with a twisted mouth.

"Come on in." I waved for Candice to come in and she didnt care to fix her hot pink body hugging dress. It reached her thighs and matched perfectly with her blond hair and full sleeves. I held my eyes on Candice's body, enjoying the peripheral view of Selene eyeing me carefully.
