Burning Passion(ONGOING)

25. OFFICE

SIENNA'S POV:

I could feel the stare of Mr. Alexander the entire time. Beside me, Mr. Ellison was fuming in anger ready to pounce on him any second. I don't really understand what he wants. What is his problem if someone's staring at me? It is none of his business especially when he doesn't want anything to do with me. It angered me that he was behaving like a raging bull after rejecting me that way. I really wanted to break his head And I was definitely not going to behave like a damsel in distress this time. I need to stop myself from bowing down to his wishes.

All these thoughts were going on in my head when suddenly Mr. Alexander asked, "Ms. Davis. Would a beautiful lady like you mind giving me your number? It will be a pleasure for me to talk to you."

All hell broke loose, as Tristan growled in anger beside me. I scratched his hand under the table and I'm sure blood was oozing out of it but not even a little wince came out of his mouth. His expression didn't change at all. In order to stop him, I said, "Sure."

I won't refuse the handsome guy, just because an arrogant asshole doesn't like it. He glared at me so hard that I wish I could hide under the table. There was a sly smirk plastered on the other guy's face but now my utmost concern is this cold man. I hurriedly got up and excused myself. And soon I was pulling Tristan out of the restaurant. He was tempted to blow his face but I couldn't let it happen to one of his clients. The moment we entered he looked at me and raised an eyebrow.

"I don't think it necessary to discuss the people I've given my number to with you."

"You just can't give your number to anyone."

"It is none of your business, Mr. Ellison."

"But he is my client."

"That doesn't mean that he is your property. So stop treating me like you own me because you don't."

"How dare you talk to-"I interrupted him.

"I'm talking to the man who is butting his head in my business. And I'm sorry, boss." I said it not meaning one word of it. Sorry, but not sorry. You deserved it. Honestly, I was surprised about my behavior. I was heart broken inside and this was the anger speaking. I mean how many times will the same process continue? Hurt me and then talk nicely to me. Not even an apology. Does he think of me as a doll whom he can hurt and then be polite anytime he wants. I have feelings for him but I have self-respect too. And these days it seems like I've lost all of it.

The car came before us and he opened the door for me. I looked at him for at least ten seconds maintaining a poker face but deep down I knew my heart was melting. I tried to keep an emotionless though not as good as him. He has mastered in hiding his emotions. This time he sat far away from me I guess he was trying to control his anger and wanted to be nice to me. But he was failing miserably.

The car ride was extremely tense. He had been glaring daggers at the window and refused to look at anything. I couldn't help but feel good that me talking to that person would bring a violet reaction out of him. The moment we reached the office he slammed the door and without sparing me a glance put all his focus on his laptop typing so furiously that I thought the keys might pop out.

On top of that he also gave me a huge pile of files taking away most of my evening. I pulled my hair into a tight bun and tried to work as fast as I can. The hours flew by and I had no idea when the sun went down. I stifled a yawn and leaned back on the couch as I stretched my body. Finally time to go home. I glanced at him from under my lashes pretending to look at the clock. His hair was messy as if he had run his hands through them continuously. It gave him a sexy look enhancing his boyish features. He pulled his lower lip in between his teeth and the mere action was enough to ignite a fire within me. I turned my focus on my hands and packed my stuff as fast as I could when he received a call. His eyebrows furrowed as he took the call.

"Tristan Ellison. How may I help you?" He said in his normal arrogant rude tone. In a second, I saw his expression change from emotionless to one that of anger. He gripped his phone with full force as he scowled at me.

"You little minion is here to disturb you. Come close." He said emphasizing 'close'.

I went around his table and he handed me the phone.
"Hello?" I asked uncertainly turning my back away from my boss.

"Hey. It's me Alexander. We met today." A familiar voice spoke. I smiled as I mumbled a 'yes'. He was going to continue but something hit my knee hard making me lose balance and fall on my boss's lap. He pulled me tight to his body. My back and his front were touching each other as his hand glided around her waist and he pulled me closer if that's even possible.

"So I wanted to say you something." I tried to wriggle out of his hold but he only held my waist more tightly.

"Hey you there." The guy on the phone said.

"Yea..Yeah." I stammered. His hand went under my knees and pulled them up making me sit on his lap sideways. My hands rested on his chest as he looked me in the eye. His magnetic eyes pulled me towards him as he leaned towards my neck without breaking eye contact. My hands unconsciously gripped his shirt tightly as his hand all my hair to the other side. I lowered my eyes as his intense look hit me.

"So there's a ball at the Rogers tomorrow. Would you like to go with me?" My hand was still on his chest gripping his shirt lightly and before I knew he pulled me towards him and his lips met mine. His soft lips pecked mine, nipped at them and bit them lightly not trying to do anything more. Goosebumps appeared on my skin as I closed my eyes. The knots in my stomach unfastened with his every kiss. I moaned as he bit my lips and I started squirming in his lap.

"Hey are you there?" Shouted a voice bringing me out of my paradise in Earth. I realised what was happening would end up with my broken heart and I pushed him away and got off his lap.

"Yeah I'll be there." I whispered into the call and disconnected it. Hurriedly, I carried my stuff and ran from there. I licked my lips once I entered the elevator. His cologne still surrounded me and the way he looked at me, held me and kissed me tenderly again and again made me shy.
