SHE

Chapter 28: His Undeniable Obsession

Vindik Riot

She's quiet.

What am I saying? Of course she's quiet, she always is. But tonight, it feels different. She wasn't paying attention like she used to before and it's starting to get on my nerves.

I was furiously tapping my feet on the floor and my fingers over the armrest. The stewardess stopped in front of me, offering me something to eat or drink. But when I looked at her, she had the upper buttons on her uniform open.

Her cleavage was practically screaming for attention and apparently they're waiting for me to notice them. I was irritated yet I tried so hard not to show it and gave her a fake smile.

"What do you want to have, Miss Collins?" I asked, eyeing my secretary who is sitting in front of me.

She opened her mouth a bit to say something but I merely heard a word.

"What was that?" I asked again and then she briefly shook her head.

"I'll have a mango grahams sundae."

She's into sweets huh? Quite the opposite of me but I'll manage.

I returned my attention back at the woman standing beside me, wanting to get in my pants so bad.

"And I'll have my usual."

I can see the shock and puzzled look on her dejected face. I know she has no idea what my usual is, my permanent stewardess called in sick and this girl took her place for today.

"Y-yes, sir, ma'am. I will give you your orders right away." She stuttered, leaving the instant she said them.

I sure wish her good luck figuring out what I meant.

I turned my gaze back at the beautiful woman in front of me who is still occupied with her own thoughts.

"I never pegged you as a lady who has a sweet tooth, Ebony." I say, smirking as she blinked several times to wake herself up.

It was only for three seconds that I saw the cuteness in her as she tried to process what I said, with her eyebrows creasing and her teeth biting on her upper lip.

"I ask that you stop judging me for who I am in the inside and out. It will do you no good, Mr Riot."

I know it was only for an instance but I'm glad I saw an innocent side of her. I finally had the chance to confirm that she is indeed human.

"By inside and out, do you mean figuratively speaking or literally? Because I admit, I don't mind seeing you either way." I say with a smirk on my lips and the smugness in my voice.

She glared at me, her eyes staring holes into me through her black contacts. I know she wears contact lenses but I decided not to mention it, knowing she has her own reasons as to why.

She doesn't speak as she waited patiently for her order. When the stewardess came, she placed our orders on the table in front of us, I'm surprised that she got my order right.

"Sorry for the wait, sir, ma'am." She bowed her head low along with her upper body, show casing her chest that was almost touching the side of my face.

I didn't give her as much attention because my eyes are only focused on my secretary who took a spoonful of her dessert in her mouth. That seemed to lighten her mood. I'll have to note her impeccable taste and sweet cravings.

And why the hell am I talking like an old man that came from the eighteenth century?

I shake my head mentally from the thought and just drank my drink.
