His Mafia Queen

Chapter 13

I woke up to a tickling sensation in my neck, due to someone breathing down at me. I slowly opened my eyes to only to meet up with the handsome face of Caiden. I know I am not supposed to be calm about this situation, yet I am. I can't help it.

I traced my fingers on his stubble. It slightly pricked my fingers, yet it was very smooth. I felt like running my fingers through his silky hair. I tried refraining but got the best of me and put my hand on his hair and started playing with the nape of his hair.

This can be my new favourite thing to do after reading. I could see him slowly waking up so I pulled my hand away suddenly when his hand shot out and grabbed me by my wrist. I was soon gazing into his eyes, which was on me. It held many emotions which I couldn't decipher.

"Keep doing what you did" he whispered in my ears, putting his face into my neck and guided my fingers to his hair.

I happily obliged.

Soon, his breathing became even, meaning he was fast asleep.

His hold on me tightened and he soon put his head on my chest, making me hold my breath. I was surprised at his act. For a moment I thought he knew what he was doing but was proved wrong when I slowly felt his breath on my chest, making me squirm.

It made me feel something. I pressed my knees together. What was happening to me? I thought.

Soon, darkness surrounded me as I fell into a slumber.

The second time I woke up, I felt cold. I couldn't find my source of warmth and I knew he woke up. I sat up and looked around. It was morning. I looked at the clock beside the nightstand and it was 8 am. And I was late to work.

I hurriedly got up from the bed and rushed to the bathroom. I did my business and took a shower. Once I was done, I wrapped a towel around me, when I realized that I don't have fresh clothes to wear. I silently groaned and cursed at my stupidity.

I wore the clothes which Caiden gave me to wear for the night for now. I will ask him to arrange something for me if possible. I thought.

When I came out of the bathroom, I was surprised to see him ready, with a crisp grey suit on, making him look delectable. I licked my lips.

"Done admiring me?" he asked smirking at me.

I looked away and blushed deep red in embarrassment.

"I have arranged for a dress. It is in the closet. When you're ready, come down. We can have our breakfast and leave for the breakfast" He said with a smile.

I don't know why but when he said that I rushed towards him and hugged him, surprising myself and him. It took him a moment to regain his composure when he did, he returned my hug and peppered small kisses on my neck and jaw making me bite back a moan.

"Don't hold back" he whispered.

I pulled out of the hug and was about to step away from him, but he was too quick. He tightened his hold on me, making it impossible to move. I squirmed in his arms making him groan. I tried a way out of his arms when his voice came out making me stop whatever I was doing.

"Ïf you don't want to end up in my bed under me screaming my name, I suggest you stop squirming. Because you are making me lose my control. And when I do, there is no going back. I promise" he said in his husky voice, almost made me want to give in to him.

I was barely hanging by a thread. Being this close to him isn't helping me either.

"You said you'll give me space" my breath rasped in my throat due to our close proximity.
