Storm's Over

3. You Bloody Chauvinist !

Everything's a bliss. I didn't even know how much time had passed, but my traitorous body simply loved it the way his lips were on mine and was trying to crave more.

As much as how my inner feminist was protesting inside, I couldn't pry my body off of his. I was clinging onto him like a monkey, our tongue battling fiercely while my roaming hands rummaging his chest.

He deepened the kiss and my hands were already climbing up to his head, tugging his hair tightly and an animalistic growl was heard through the night.

When my flying hands started to unbutton the first button of his ten-year-old coat, he tear his body off of me but still secured me in his arms.

"Why did you stop?"

"Mr.Linton! We are out in the public."

"As if you care when you hold me out of the ball room just now. And why are you still calling me Mr.Linton ?"

"Mr.Linton, you should very well know that I don't tolerate your snappy attitude."

"Stop calling me Mr.Linton when you're attending my suitors ball ! I'm wearing a dress right now!"

"But it didn't change the fact that you're under my employ, Mr. Linton !"

"Put.Me.Down."

"No."

"PUT.ME.DOWN."

I saw him lowered his head again and I stopped him right at that point.

"Don't you dare to kiss me again!"

I saw his expression change. A muscle in his stoic face moved, his lips were tugged upwards.  

" What if that's exactly what I'm going to do?"

"Then I will stab your eyes with my fingers!"

"When I'm the one that gave you, a female, a decent job as a secretary? When I'm the one that has been generous enough to keep you under my employ to fulfil your stupid feministic dreams?"

My face fell, my brain was blank at that moment.

He's right. Without him, I would have never got a chance to get a job when I'm a woman. I would have never had my dream come true.

A woman being a secretary.

Nobody would have ever thought that a woman can do a decent job other than sipping tea and attending to balls.

But he was the only one that gave me a chance despite he knew about me being a female.

But after what he had said just now, I'm sure he's still one of those bloody chauvinists out there even after he knew about my capabilities.

He took my silence as a sense of knowing about what he had said earlier.

"So are you going to do that?"

With that, anger consumed me, my whole body was on fire.

"PUT ME DOWN THIS INSTANT!" I yelled at him.

"No."

"Why are you so stubborn?! You bloody chauvinistic pig! Blast you !"

"You are dismissed, Mr.Linton." He gazed at me with his sea-coloured eyes, icy cold kind of way may I add.

My blood ran cold for a moment.
