I got ready in a flash afraid that this handsome yet heartless hunk out there could just take my virginity away.
I got to be honest though, he did make my heart and stomach flutter when he said those words and all I can think is does he want me or is this my imagination or he is just playing with my mind? God, I became such a mess after I met him!
A few minutes later I got out of my room with nervousness overshadowing my entire self and I don't have a clue as to why I'm being so nervous but somehow my fidgety attitude diminished once I saw him in all his glory talking confidently on his phone, well, more like barking orders.
Once he saw me, I swear I saw his eyes darken and this made me take a look at what I was wearing; a burgundy skirt which was slightly tight and enhancing my curves and a black shirt. Nothing much. I wonder what's wrong with him.
Our gaze didn't break at all. He kept looking at me till his call ended making me slightly conscious.
As soon as his call ended, he muttered some Italian words under his breath before gesturing me to follow him downstairs. I complied by his words, closed the door and followed him like the perfect submissive that I was.
This is going to be a really long day!
"We're going out to have something to eat", Sebastian said once we got in the car.
"Ethan, take us to Olivia's", Sebastian ordered.
"But why?" I asked, slightly confused. He got me ready in such a haste only to get us something to eat?! Is he crazy or what?!
"Ava, why do you ask so many questions?" Sebastian sighed heavily while typing on his phone. "Can't you do something quietly without asking any questions?"
"Oh didn't you know, it's actually my hobby to ask questions!" I answered sarcastically, obviously pissing him off. I have no idea where this new found confidence came from.
"Is that so, Miss AvaGrace Wilson?" Sebastian smirked, putting his phone away and gaining my full attention. Damn, he looks hot. I would love it if he could just have his way with me in the backseat right now. Dirty Ava! My subconscious snapped. "Well do you want to know my newly found hobby, Miss Wilson?" Sebastian asked smiling devilishly at me.
I found myself nodding without even thinking. Once I did this, Sebastian rapidly wrapped his arms around me and brought me really close to me to the point where I could smell his cinnamon cologne and boy did that mess with my senses.
"I want to spank you hard for having such a sarcastic mouth and then shag you whole day long." Sebastian muttered sexily in my ear making me close my eyes in delight.
How can I be delighted when my boss is saying such things to me?!
"We're here." I heard him say taking me out of my thoughts.
"Huh?" I asked confused.
"We reached the restaurant." Sebastian repeated as if I were a retarded making me blush crimson.
We both got out of the car and made our way to the restaurant.
Once we were inside, I got hit by a really warm environment. This restaurant seemed to be very cozy and private. I was literally in love with it.
"I knew you would like it here." Sebastian said once again taking me out of my thoughts. How is he aware of my likes and dislikes?
"Thank you." I quietly replied.
"Come." Sebastian answered taking my small hands in his. If someone had seen us, he would have thought we were a couple. If only!
"Sebastian, son!" A female voice called from behind us making us come to a halt.
"Morning Olivia." Sebastian greeted the old yet beautiful woman with a small hug. It's the first time I can see him being this warm to someone else other than his own family.
"How are you and how come you're here after so long?" The short woman questioned with a huge delight on her face.
"We just wanted to munch on something before going back to work." Sebastian replied courteously.
"And who might this beautiful young woman be?" Olivia asked looking intently at me, as if inspecting me.
"She is AvaGrace Wilson, my personal assistant." Sebastian responded wrapping an arm around my waist. My stomach fluttered with butterflies when he wrapped his arm around me. I guess I'll never have enough of him doing this sweet gesture. He's just being nice, Ava! My subconscious snapped.
"Really?" Olivia replied. "Well, she must be an excellent personal assistant for you to bring her to me, Seb." She said, smirking. Why would she say that?
"What do you have for us to eat, Olivia? We are in a bit of a hurry." Sebastian said, quickly changing the topic which made Olivia roll her eyes.
"It's your favourite, Chicken Parmesan." Olivia said. "You guys take a seat and I'll set the food on the table."
Once she said that, she went back to what I think is the kitchen while we got in a small booth with Sebastian in front of me and once again typing on the phone and I was looking at this majestic scenery outside.
"So you confirm that there's nothing between Jackson and you?" I heard Sebastian suddenly ask taking me by surprise.
"No, Sebastian." I replied confidently. "There's nothing between us. Jackson is just a good friend who takes care of me, that's it. But I don't feel anything for him." I have no idea why I have given such a long explanation but at this moment it felt necessary to say so.
"Good." Sebastian answered satisfactorily. Why does he care so much? "I wouldn't like it if you were engaged with other males." He went on looking straight at me.
Just when I was about to question him why, Olivia came radiantly and set our food on the table.
"Ava, dear, let me know if you like it." Olivia said in a motherly tone. She's too sweet.
"I will." I replied and quickly dug in.
Once the food was inside my mouth, I moaned at how good it was. "This is heaven!" I said relishing the different flavors in my mouth and earned a chuckle from Sebastian who was eating like a perfect gentleman while I was eating like a wild woman.
"I have known Olivia since I was a teen and ever since I have been in love with her cuisine." Sebastian explained. No wonder why they share such a deep bond.
Just when I was about to put another mouthful of chicken, the next few words that came out of Sebastian shocked me to the point where I didn't want to eat anymore.
"We're going to Rome tomorrow evening and I have tried to get you a separate room but the hotel is fully booked, so we will have to share a room together for three days." Sebastian said looking straight at me but I could see a sort of glint in his eyes.
What am I going to do now? Sharing a room with my boss for three days. Great! Absolutely great!
