《The CEO's Safe Haven [EDITING SOON!]》33. Coffees and Drinks

+++
Noah closes the door behind him grabbing Daisy's attention. She stands, her hands behind her back in a polite manner. Even being taken back by his appearance she asked him if there was anything that needed doing or if she missed something,
"Mr King is everything okay? Do you need something?"
He gives her a look, not saying anything. He finds himself staring at Lily's door. Daisy senses something off by his sudden appearance. She also looks at Lily's office door, now finding the voice to comment,
"Lily went in not long ago, do you need to me tell Lily anything?"
For Noah, Daisy's words literally went in one ear and came out the other. Without wasting a second he walks up to her door, ignoring Daisy's questions. Back in Noah's office, Ed was now lazily sitting on the chair has he hummed to himself, typing away on his phone to Luke,
Man you owe me that fifty. Our stone cold CEO literally just left his office saying that he was gonna make his kitten his.
Almost instantly he received a response from his mate,
Don't lie! Ugh it should be me there, not you! You're the only one getting the spice and drama, not fair!
Ed chuckled as he finally decided to stand. He puts his phone back in his pocket, giving one last look at the pictures that were still scattered around on the desk. He gives a knowing smile, proud of the reason why he was here in the first place.
Like Noah, Ed also leaves the office. Upon leaving the room, Ed catches Daisy stare dreamily at Lily's door. She turns to face me as the door clicked shut. She gives Ed a confused look that made him smile even wider. He walked up to her, speaking nonchalantly,
"I best be off Dais. What I needed to get done has been done. Let me know if anything new happens or when Noah leaves that room,"
He speaks, pointing at Lily's office door. Daisy follows his finger as she became suspicious. By the time Daisy had a chance to say something to Ed, he was no longer in front of her but rather in front of the elevator. He shows her a peace sign and winked. He comments stating the obvious,
"I know you want some spice happening on this floor too. It's boring as hell, I know. His one night stands are dull and you know what's going to happen. With Lily in the picture you can now anticipate. You know, like an ongoing drama. With my help they'll be together in no time,"
Daisy gives a dry chuckle before rolling her eyes at his words. She knew that his confidence was high and that he was having his moment. Anyone would know he was. She shakes her head a few more times before getting back to work.
It wasn't long before Ed had finally left the floor. As the doors closed, Daisy paused her typing and bit her lower lip, eyes was fixated on Lily's door. She waited a few minutes or so before she decided to stand on her feet.
She herself approached the elevator and waited patiently for the doors to open. She knew that sooner or later something would happen, whether it be in her office or his. Not wanting to be in the presence, she took the initiative and left, leaving the two in peace in their own world.
When the doors opened, she stepped inside and pressed the button to go down. She knew that she was all set to spill the hot piping tea with Tanya who was waiting in anticipation.

The door to my office opened and Noah walked in. He closed the door behind him, making sure that the click was heard. My heart hammered, not ready for what was about to happen or be said.
He turned back around so that he was facing me. He raised an eyebrow and looked around the room. As he did this the side of his lip tugging upwards as he spoke in a teasing manner,
"I thought you were completing work?"
"I am,"
I spoke quickly. I panicked massively. The four walls around us felt a lot smaller than it did before. I felt like I was glitching on the spot as I didn't know which way to walk. Eventually I made up my mind and walked over to my desk. I take a seat, typing on my keyboard as I speak,
"Do you need anything? You could've called instead of coming here,"
He kept himself grounded by not saying anything. Instead of talking he walks up to me, his footsteps loud in the silence. Unwillingly I hold my breath waiting for something to happen but nothing did.
He continues to walk in my direction, this time slightly changing so that he made ways to the ceiling-to-floor windows. I spin on my chair to catch him looking out at the skyline. He stood tall, hands in his pockets.
Deciding not to give him a lot of my attention, I turn around and focus on my computer screen, reading pie charts and type important key points on a PowerPoint for an upcoming meeting. I puff my cheeks out before releasing a breath, finally breaking the silence between us,
"Dolphin if you have nothing to say can you go? Your presence is distracting me a little. You may have free time on your hands but I don't. Now if you excuse me,"
I move to grab a pen and open my notebook, writing a few points and tasks that I still had to do. Being focused on my work, I didn't register his presence behind me. His hands caving my body in. He had his hands on either side of me on the desk, trapping me in almost.
The pen drops from my hand, showing him completely how much of an affect he had on me from his sudden actions. I gulped down the dryness as my heart hammered. I looked wearily to the side coming face-to-face with Noah.
His emerald eyes glistened beautifully, the setting sun shining down at him making him look sexy as ever. One of his hands moves to the back of my chair, spinning it around so that I was now facing him. He bends down slightly to my level as we hold our gaze on each other.
He inhales deeply before releasing a sigh. The action itself intoxicating me with his sandalwood scent. He gets distracted, eyes falling on my lips since I bit it in anticipation. He does the unexpected by touching my face, releases my lower lip from my teeth. He whispers huskily,
"What the hell have you done to me kitten?"
I lick my bottom lip with the tip of my tongue as I hold his stare equally. Innocently I shrug my shoulders before looking away, now looking at the door. He raises his hand once more and grabs my chin, making me face him again. His speaks in a tone that set my insides on fire,
"Don't look away from me,"
I blink unable to respond back. He uses his thumb and rubs my bottom lip a couple of times. The action itself building a small tension in the pit of my stomach. I part my lip a little wider to speak,

"Can we... er... I mean..."
I try to speak but my sentence wasn't leaving my lips properly like a normal human being. I stop, closing my eyes as I tried to mentally say the sentence in my head,
"Can we what?"
He questioned curiously. I shake my head and open my eyes, this time focusing on his chest instead,
"Nothing. Don't worry,"
He bites his lower lip hard as he looks away nodding his head. He stands tall, removing himself from me. I tilt my head back due to our height difference. He walks away from my personal bubble and heads over to the sofa,
"I want coffee,"
I only give him a blank look before going back to writing in my notebook, completely disregarding his statement. The tip of the pen hovers over the paper as I voice out,
"... and I want a red berry ice cooler,"
He takes a seat, one leg folded against the other in a ninety degree angle. He crosses his arms over his chest allowing his blazer to tighten, giving me a perfect view of his flexed muscles,
"What's your point kitten?"
I place the pen down and give him my full attention,
"My point is, if you want your coffee you gotta wait about ten minutes. I may be the one who makes your office since your PA but there is work piling up as minutes tick by. I'll make your coffee in ten. You can come back later if you want since it may take some time,"
He shakes his head as he speaks,
"I'm not going anywhere,"
I genuinely scrunch my eyebrows together and question,
"Why? Me being the curious one, I can't help but ask... have you done this with your previous PA's before?"
"No,"
His answer was quick and straight to the point,
"Then why me?"
He lets out a chuckle. The one that always did something to my stomach. The baby hairs on the back of my neck rose and I suddenly felt hot, suddenly not wanting to know his answer,
"Like I said kitten, you're different from the rest. Also, do I really have to wait ten minutes for my coffee? Even though I'm the one who owns this place?"
He teases. He knows what he's doing to me. He's enjoying it. I poke the inside of my mouth, placing my hands on the edge of the desk to push my chair back a little. I stand, now combing a hand through my untamed hair. I speak a little annoyed,
"I'm sure making your coffee now won't kill me,"
He gave a pout as he spoke,
"But the work pile..."
I roll in my lip and close my eyes, trying to keep the anger at bay. I pull a strained smile and parted my lips to answer him,
"I'm sure spending ten minutes on your coffee won't cause me harm,"
I don't waste anymore time and leave the room. When I do leave, I come to an empty hallway. I had no time to question it knowing that he was the only thing on my mind. Him running through my mind just made the sanity within me slowly deplete.
I release a long sigh, finally walking over to the small room which held the coffee machine. I make a coffee him and one for myself. Once the coffees were made I walked back, careful not to spill the hot piping content.
When I reached my office, I ended up struggling to open the door. Like any other idiot, I tried using the back of my elbows to open the door. I somehow successfully pushed the door enough to slip in. Noah looks up from his phone as he speaks,
"You did know that I was still in the room right? You could have asked for me to open the door,"
I don't listen to his comment and approach him, placing both cups of coffee down on the tea-table that was in front of him. I stood tall, trying to create a distance but even that failed. He made it pretty clear that there should be little distance between us.
He moved to the edge of the sofa and grabbed my wrist. He tugged me slightly making me gasp. We know that I had no sense of balance so in retaliation, I end up tumbling. Even in our situation, he catches me effortlessly.
I end up sitting on his lap, one hand holding my waist that the other on my wrist still. Our faces were close and like always, his sandalwood scent invaded my bubble. I felt intoxicated, everything around us slowing down whilst we were playing on normal.
I didn't dare to move and frankly, I didn't want to. His presence alone soothed me. Both mentally and physically. He brought his face closer to mine, the tips of our noses touching. He parts his lips, his minty breath fanning my face softly.
My chest was heaving heavily, the action bringing us even closer. I myself found that I too was leaning in. I quickly lick my lips before biting my lower lip again. I get comfortable on his lap, my movement making my lips touch his ever so lightly.
I couldn't hold back so I did what my heart wanted. I snaked my hands upwards, leaving a burning trail as I made ways to the back of his neck. I pull him to me, our breaths now mixing. He tilts his head to the side, finally locking lips with mine.
His actions were slow, sensual and steady at first before it became needy and desperate. My hands itched higher, feeling the softness of his hair as I grabbed a fistful making him grunt from the action. He squeezes my waist and I gasp.
Being distracted, he slips his tongue in my mouth and we both fought for dominance. The way how I was sat was awkward for me so, with out lips still attached I lifted my lower half and re-positioned myself so that I was now straddling him with my legs on either side of him.
He lets out a hum and grins into the kiss. We break apart, both breathing for air. Our chests rose and fell fast, trying to pump the oxygen back into my system. Even though we were still catching our breath he leaves no time to to bury his face in the crook of my neck.
I couldn't help but let out a loud moan as his wet lips touched my skin. My head rolled back, eyes closing from the new bliss that I felt. I was still holding onto his neck as I ran my hands through his hair, grinding into him from his wet kisses. He hummed in satisfaction.
He bit on the skin as he whispered sweet things making my heart race. With a gasp leaving my mouth, I slightly push him away so that he was nowhere near my neck. He looks at me with darkened eyes and speaks breathlessly,
"What's wrong?"
I shake my head, disagreeing with him. I grind on him out of the blue making him now roll his head back so that his neck touched the back of the sofa. I lean forward so that my lips were touching his ear, I speak breathlessly,
"I don't want a massive purple bruise showing so that Ed can mimic me again like last time,"
He lifts his head back and gives me a lazy smirk, speaking seductively,
"Kitten I was aiming for that anyways,"
"What?"
He cups my face in his hand and like he was my safe haven, I leaned in. His eyes roamed mine for what left like a life time before he whispered like he was in a battle with himself,
"Kitten you have something that belongs to me,"
Even though we were both still breathless from our heated make-out session I scrunch my eyes, not following with what he was saying,
"I'm sure I don't dolphin,"
He leans his upper half as I moved back, mirroring him. It was his turn to bring his lips close to my ear. He speaks in an octave low voice,
"Oh kitten I know for a fact that you do,"
I move back a little more as goosebumps course through my body. With a raised eyebrow, I whisper, having no confidence whatsoever in my voice,
"Really? What?"
His eyes shift to my lips, tilting his head back like he was in a trance. He sucks in his lips and states,
"My every thought,"
