I wake up, feeling kisses all over my face. My eyelids, my nose, my lips.

Christian's delicious scent enters my nose. My eyes flutter open and I am greeted by the sight of my man.

"Hi..." I squint my eyes.

"Hi, baby." He pecks me. "Good morning."

I pull him for another kiss, "Good morning indeed."

"I know I have a lot of making up to do and that included letting you sleep late but.." He pauses. "My mom is getting operated later today so I thought we could spend time together."

"Oh," I frown. "I completely forgot about it after yesterday. Shit."

"It's okay we have plenty of time." He stands up in his boxers only. What a sight.

I miss what he is saying, just admiring the views and filling my mind with dirty thoughts.

Rico's question is still on my mind. Why haven't we had sex yet? He always stops things from going too far. Hmm. We are going to have to do something about it.

Christian suddenly pulls on his sweats and T-shirt making me frown again.

"What are you doing?" I scowl at him.

"Get up and get ready." He orders with an amused expression. "You can stare all you want later."

He ruffles his hair and smirks at me. My eyes take in his body. My lips involuntarily part licking my bottom lip then biting it.

I want him.

He understands my reaction and stands up straight. He clears his throat, "I'm going to tell the housekeeper to make our breakfast. We'll eat outside in the garden."

I look at him annoyed. He's turning me down? I'm already on my period. Of course, I'm not going to have him now.

Before I can say anything he practically runs out if the room making my mouth drop open.

Does he not want me?

I huff and get up from the bed, annoyed.

Bloody virgin Mary.

I freeze. Why was Rico enjoying so much that I wasn't a virgin? It is because of Christian...

No, no. Not possible.

But I will teach him a lesson. I don't know if it's me or my inner goddess. But my ego is bruised.

I shower making sure my hair stays dry. I change into a white off-shoulder crop top that ties in the front and shows a little too much cleavage than usual and I'm blessed in that department too. I pull on my Jean short shorts with laced heel boots. I put my navel stud back on. Thank God I decided to do a navel piercing.

I put on my routine make-up that includes some contouring, highlighter, lipstick, and mascara.

With a puff of my bombshell, I'm all ready. I look in the mirror. It's all skin and legs. Now resist me.

I pick up my black Ray-Bans and my cell phone. While walking down I shoot a text to my patient Lucy and Uncle Sam telling them I'm fine and enjoying my so-called vacation.

A wolf whistle interrupts me. I look up to see Rico standing there with a smirk. "Looking hot babe."

"Enough to seduce your best friend?" I ask back with a smirk of my own.

"Yeah but good luck you are going to need it." Rico chuckles as if remembering something.

"Thanks. But I have faith in my skills. He will be on his knees in a couple of days." I say rolling my eyes. "Where is he anyway?"

"Your hotshot boyfriend is waiting outside for you." He gestures towards the garden.

"Thanks, Rico." I wink at him and make my way outside putting on my shades.

The guards loitering outside the mansion all turn to me. Under my shades, I observe them all. Some of them are casual clothes and some of them in suits.

I make sure to sway my hips and bring seductiveness into my walk. Their eyes linger.

Ah. That's what I needed.

I make my short walk to the breakfast table where Christian is sitting his eyes not leaving me, under the umbrella.

"Hi, baby." I give him a chaste kiss on the mouth and sit down, taking off my glasses. He changed into his suit. I don't know how he does that.

"Hi..." He says his eyes not leaving my chest.

"What's for breakfast?" I ask sweetly.

"Uh... Pancakes." He answers finally meeting my eyes.

"Sweet," I say and pretend to text somebody on my phone.

I can feel him watching me, "What are you doing Victoria?"

"Nothing I'm just so glad you are back in one piece." My mood really drops down after thinking about last night.

"Me too," he sighs.

I reach over the table and hold his hand gently caress it. "I thought I'd never see you again."

I have a sudden urge to hold him close. So I do. I stand up sit in his lap surprising him. I wrap my arms around his neck burying my face in his neck.

He smells heavenly.

"Victoria?"

"Hmm?"

"You okay?"

"I am now."

I tighten my arms around him and press a kiss to his throat. I press my palm against his chest noticing a slight change in his heartbeat. Hmm, nice.

I lean up placing another kiss on his lips, "You taste so good." I whisper against his lips.

"Mia dea, not here. Please." He says rubbing circles on my bareback. He can't find anywhere proper to touch me. I can feel him stir under me.

It's working.

One of the workers brings our breakfast for us. I stand up from his lap and sit back at my place.

As much as that worker tries to keep his eyes off of me. He fails. His eyes dart back from my chest and legs to the table again and again.

Christian clenches his jaw and lets out a loud breath.

"Frank unless you want to keep your balls. Keep your eyes to yourself."

He lets out a small apology and scurries away. Christian turns to glare at me. I blanch back.

"What?"

"Could you maybe wear something like, less revealing?" He snaps at me.

"But I like my outfit." Payback time Rico for not listening to me. "Rico likes it too."

"Oh? He does?" He asks incredulously.

"Yeah. Don't you like it?" I say looking at it.

"Oh, I love it, baby." He says without any expression.

"Thank you," I say digging into my breakfast. It's delicious.

I drink my mango juice and I'm finished.

"Can we go for a walk?" I ask him once he's done. He eats a lot.

He gives me a look and then nods. We both stand up and I notice that I'm now only a few inches shorter than him. Apparently he does too.

"Aren't the heels a little too high?"

"Nope. Now I can easily do this." I put my hands into his hair pulling his face to mine in a hard passionate kiss.

I slip my tongue between his lips. He opens up and puts his hand on my waist pulling me closer. I moan tightening my finger that is in his hair.

I can feel his hardness digging into me. I move my hand down until I'm rubbing him over his pants.

Suddenly Christian twists me so that my back is against his front and my wrists are tight in his grip.

"Behave Victoria." He growls in my ear but his voice is dripping with lust and desire.

Just give in, baby.

"It's enough of a show for my guards. Let's go inside and get you changed." He hisses in my ear.

"What's wrong with what I'm wearing?"

"They are looking at what's mine." He drags me inside and into a room. He closes the door and slams me against it kissing me.

He runs his hand through my face to my breasts cupping them down my stomach to my ass and then legs.

"All of this is mine. You understand?" He breathes out. "No one can touch you or see you except me, you understand?"

I moan saying nothing.

He lifts me up wrapping my legs around his waist, thrusting into me hardly. Again and again.

"You understand?" He thrusts harder.

"Yes, I understand." I moan throwing my head.

"I know your game, you little one." He bites my earlobe. "You are mine and only mine."

I dig my fingers into his shoulders. "Yes, yours. Only yours."

He stops moving to release me, "Good." He turns and leaves.

I make a loud frustrated sound, "Christian."

He gives me a smirk and disappears behind the door.

No more playing nice. He'll be begging to touch me and I won't let him.
