His Obsession

03

Beautiful.

That's the first word that came into my mind when he turned around to face me. My eyes involuntarily moved up and down his muscular structure. If I thought he looked large from the back, he's even broader upfront. The black suit clung and stretched across his chest like a second skin. His face was perfection, from his pink full lips to his forest green eyes that seemed to see right into my soul, he was immaculate.

I think I just creamed my panties.

I was drawn out of my lust-filled thoughts when my ears registered a sound of someone's throat being cleared and that someone was none other than The Evan Jacobs.

''Had a proper look?'' He asked with a smug tone and a complacent smirk.

My face was flushed with embarrassment and while some part of me was mentally killing myself in 101 ways, the greater, virginal part of me wished to say 'Not quite yet.'

I couldn't voice out an answer, so I did the only thing that could spare me from any further embarrassments.

Keeping my lips sealed, I glared at him from across the room and crossed my arms under my chest, getting the blush that was threatening to crawl up my cheeks under control. I noticed his eyes instantly zoning in on my chest when I crossed my arms.

Growing exasperated, I snapped my fingers twice, ''My face is up here.''

He lifted his eyebrows, clear amusement gleaming in his eyes, ''So was mine.''

And the blush that I had been desperately trying to hide finally broke through and made an appearance.

He catches and a smirk instantly appears on his lips, he opens his mouth to make an assertion but before he could I beat him to it, ''Mr. Evans, with all due respect.."

God, now you're thinking about respect?

''I didn't come here to dilly dally,'' I mentally cringed as I said that, I think I have been spending too much time with Mrs. Throneberry, my kind, old neighbor.

''I just wanted to ask the reason behind you not accepting my resignation letter,'' I paused to look at him, his eyebrows were furrowed which resulted in my own being subconsciously furrowed, ''Can I know why?''

He looks at me for a couple of seconds before walking over to his desk and leaning his lower back against it while resting both of his hands on the edge of it and contorting them marginally.

'How can someone look this sexy just by leaning against a damn desk?' I thought to myself.

''I won't give you one.'' He says, without any further explanations.

''What? just like that?'' He shrugged which made me so furious I walked towards him and stop an inch away from his sturdy chest and start speaking in a low dangerous voice. ''If you won't accept my resignation, I should at least deserve a solid answer,'' I say while jabbing his hard chest with each word.

He grabs my wrist in his hand and moves his thumb back and forth in a soothing manner against my pulse point. His touch sends a jolt of electricity throughout my body, making my hair stand on end and causing my heart to speed up, it takes me a while to know that he's talking, ''What?''

''I said, I won't accept it because you are hardworking and dedicated to your job,'' he drops my wrist and I take a step back to clear my mind off of him before formulating an answer.

''But I don't want to work here, I...I have found a better place to work at," I say and hope to god that he buys my lie.

''Really?'' he asks with a raised eyebrow and a flicker of emotion passes through his eyes which disappears just as fast as it came for me to catch and figure out what it was, ''Where?''

''At a library,'' I answered, mentally slapping myself for thinking about it.

A library? Really?

''Do you get paid better compared to how much you were paid here?''

Honestly what kind of a stupid question is that? Of course not!

''No,'' I mumbled.

''Then tell me, Miss Stone, why do you want to leave this job?'' He asked when he knew damn well why.

''I didn't feel comfortable here,'' I answered with a straight face.

''Why weren't you comfortable?''

''I just wasn't,'' I uttered without looking at him.

''Miss Stone, If you want to resign then YOU have to give ME a valid reason,'' he said with a passive expression.

''There is no other valid reason except for me being uncomfortable,''

''You're not fooling me, Ava,'' I looked at him sharply when he said my name as unexpected memories of the last time when he had said my name flashes through my mind, ''Tell me the real reason,''

''Why can't you just let that be the reason? Why are you so persistent in finding another reason behind this?'' I asked, aggravated.

''Because no one can just leave the office suddenly without a solid reason, and I don't think to feel uncomfortable is a reasonable answer, so, Miss Stone, tell me the REAL reason now,'' he exclaimed, his voice rising a few octaves.

''There is NO other reason MR. EVAN,'' I said while emphasizing his name, ''So can you please accept the darn resignation letter so I can leave this Fudging office,'' I said, my own voice rising slightly.

''The real reason Ava,'' I shot daggers at his way as he said my name again, ''Or no acceptance of the resignation.''

''Okay, so you won't accept my resignation letter? well, I'm going to leave either way.'' I shrug and make my way towards the door. Before I'm even able to take three full steps he's already reached for my wrist, turning me around and caging me against him with his arms tightly wound around me. The proximity of our bodies was making me dizzy as his musky scent filled my senses.

''wha.. what are you doing?'' I breathlessly asked.

''Not letting you go until you give a solid, real, and justified answer.'' He breathes against my lips.

''I have already told you t-that's t-the r-reason,'' I said, hating myself for sounding so weak.

''The real reason Ava, this is the last time I'm asking.'' He breathes against my neck as he buries his head in my neck.

''Uh-um I-its uh,'' I'm so fucking turned on at this point that I can't think, speak or process anything properly. It isn't until he skims his lips lightly against my jugular that I snap out of my lust-filled haze and pushes him away from me angrily.

''This,'' I say pointing towards him and waving my hands around his office, ''This is the reason why I don't wanna stay, YOU are the reason I don't wanna stay.'' I snap at him, trying to control my erratic breathing. ''I don't want to work with a womanizing, self-centered, asshole like yourself,'' I pause before continuing, ''Do you get it now? Is this justification enough for you?'' I hiss angrily.

And before I know it his lips are on mine and he's kissing me hungrily.

The kiss continues next chap ;)
