《The CEO's Safe Haven [EDITING SOON!]》40. ♡ House tour ♡
Advertisement
We had finished eating and we were now doing the dishes. Noah was doing cleaning whilst I dried off the plates with a clean, dry towel. Noah turns to the side as he questions,
"You know, you don't have to help me with the dishes"
I also mirror him as I reply,
"I have to do something too. If I'm waiting in the living room I'll be bored and then I'll eventually end back here"
He nods, taking in my words. It didn't take us long until everything was put away. I was leaning against the counter as I asked with a hopeful smile on my face,
"So what's the agenda now? We're done with dinner, what's next?"
He was silent for a minute and I hold his gaze, waiting for a response but he didn't give one. My shoulders drop as I realised he had nothing. He sensed my disappointment so he spoke up a little fast,
"I'm sorry I didn't have anything else planned. You know how busy I am since I'm the CEO of a company. How about... why don't you decide? I cooked the meal, you can pick what we to do now"
I smiled as I took a step towards him teasingly. He gulped , clearly not expecting my actions. I was stood in front of him when I tiptoed and bopped his nose. He blinked, a smile slowly becoming visible on his face. I also smiled since his smile was addictive.
It made my heart flutter at the sight of him. I took note that when he smiled, his eyes became a little smaller and if I was stood really really close I would be able to see the little wrinkles clearly and the emerald in his eyes twinkled. I know! Twinkled! How is that even possible?!
We must've stood like this for a couple of minutes because I ended up clearing my voice. Somehow, he ended up standing closer to me. He rested a hand on the counter, his forearm on display. I created a little distance as I rubbed the back of my neck nervously.
I looked past his body and stared out the door when something popped up. Without realising, I found myself smiling widely. I look back at Noah already seeing him give me a weird look. I grabbed his hand and pulled him with me as he protested,
"Hey-"
He doesn't finish of his sentence as we now stood in the hallway, the both of us facing each other. I squeezed his hand softly as I spoke,
"I want a house tour"
He looks around from where we were stood and questioned out,
"Out of all the things you could choose you want a house tour?"
I nod enthusiastically as I speak,
"Wouldn't you if you were me?"
"Err... I think we both know the answer to that kitten,"

I sigh as start to give my reasons,
"Because Dolphin, who wouldn't"
He only chuckles as he begins to shake his head, going against the idea,
"Oh come on! It'll be fun! It's unique. Think about it, an employee in her employers house. I get to see things other people can't and also I'm a curious person and oh! I love aesthetic things and your house is aesthetic as hell. I can't just turn a blind eye away from it"
I say with a smile on my face as I look into the living room. I look back at him only seeing him with raised eyebrows. He takes in a deep breath as he questions himself,
"What have I got myself into?"
I only smiles as I answer for him,
"Something different for sure and you know it"
He gives me a final look and that's when I see it. The playful but lust filled glint his eyes. Randomly, he took a daring step forward making me take one back. We continued doing this until I felt my back touch the cold wall. I look to the side, making sure that it was indeed a wall.
He placed a hand on the wall above my head and leaned down to my level. It was just like how we were in the elevator, back at my apartment. He blows out some air that fanned against my face. We both stare at each other before he breaks away, looking at my body.
Almost instantly I felt hot, like boiling hot. I could already feel my cheeks redden and my breathing fasten. This was not what I expected. At all. He looks back at me and I hold my breath. He lifts his hand and tucks a strand of hair behind my ear, his eyes on his actions.
His eyes flicker to me before he looks away. He parts his lips and I find myself looking at them. He licks them and instantly I look away as I bit my lower lip. Noah takes in a deep breath as he moves his hand to my face and removes my lip from my teeth making me look at him,
"Have I told you how beautiful you look?"
I blink a couple of times, his voice husky. It was as if I was in a trance. I shook my head no. He smirked, the corner of his lip tugging upwards. He placed his other hand on my hip as he spoke bringing his face closer to mine,
"Well Lily"
I clenched my lower stomach as he said my name,
"You look so sexy... so beautiful"
I look up, seeing his eye so dark that I don't even see the emerald anymore. He drops his gaze to my lips and as if he was in a trance and whispers loud enough for me to hear, the need clearly in his words,

"I have something better"
I part my lips a little as I breath out my words,
"Wha-what is it?"
"Simple. Let me kiss you"
He leans down a little so that his lips were hovering over mine. I lick my lower lip before swallowing the lump that grew in my throat. My mind played with me in the given moment. Ever since I had worked at King Enterprise and met him he had been on my mind. Him and him alone.
The moments we had were both passionate and frustrating. We would always start something off but leave it at a pause. It was addictive, on repeat and never-ending. We always had these moment and now looking back, it seemed normal... it seemed... just right.
Without giving it much thought I find myself leaning in, our lips brushing. What happened to our house tour? the corner of my mind screamed but it was dulled out in our heated moment. Noah made no move. It was as if he was waiting for my response.
He was being a gentleman. Even his this heated situation, he still cared. I tilted my head up, making our noses touch. Our bottom lips touched also and without wasting another second, our lips were attached.
I lift my hand to his face, cupping him. He takes another steps forward, closing the little space between us. In this moment, nothing mattered; except him and him only. We parted in-between the kisses as we tried to regain our breath but it was pointless.
I wrapped my arms around his neck, tiptoeing- despite my heels- as I pressed my upper half against his making him grunt in satisfaction. My lower stomach churned and tingled and soon quickly, found myself no longer pressed against the wall.
Unconsciously, we had walked backwards so that somehow Noah was now pressed against the wall. We continued to kiss, Noah's hands exploring my body. It trailled from my waist to my bum. He gave it a little squeeze making me squeal.
I ended up pressing myself closer to him making him hum in satisfaction. I loved his touch on my my body but like karma it was slipping away. The tables turned once more and I was back to being pressed against the wall.
We broke apart, our foreheads touching as we breathed out heavily. I bit my lip as the thoughts invaded, it wasn't enough... I needed more... I wanted more...
So I did what my heart was yearning for. I snaked my hands around his neck and pulled him back, reattaching my lips to him. I could feel him smirk at my actions, but I pushed it aside, being embarrassed can wait right now I wanted to savour and live the moment.
My wish came a little to quick because I was no longer standing with my feet on the floor. I pull back, gasping at the sudden feeling. I look around, finding myself in Noah's arms. He carried me in bridal style up the stairs.
I look at the stairs as he walked up, my mouth open a little; heart still beating way faster that it should. I speak breathlessly,
"Noah-"
I couldn't say much as we had reached the top of the stairs. He placed me on my feet and just watched me as I looked up at him. Like before he dips down, kissing me once more and I don't stop him.
I walk backwards until my back touches another random wall. His hands once again roam, but this time it was different. He cupped my face, deepening the kiss as he bit my lower lip. His hands move south as he cups my breasts against the material of my dress.
I moan in satisfaction before his hands was no longer touching my body. He hides his face in my neck. I lean to the side, letting him give a wet kiss. My hand runs through his soft hair as I give a slight tug.
For him, he grunts making my insides on fire. He sucks my skin again and I shut my eyes tightly, suppressing another moan from leaving my lips. He moves away so that his lips now hover over my neck,
"Tell me to stop Lily"
He says as his lips touch like a feather against my skin. The words that leave his lips sounded as if he was restraining himself. I hear him swallow as he continues to speak,
"Tell me to stop before it comes to a point where I can't control myself"
The baby hairs on my neck rose at his words. I move his face so that he was now looking at me. He started at me hard, his eyes showing the lust that he tried to hold back. I swallowed, taken back by his gaze.
I know that I should've created some distance like I always did when we were in this situation but at this point didn't want to. I still haven't said anything, my breathing still not back at it's usual rate.
I part my lips as I tried to say something but I couldn't. I close my eyes as I shake my head. I don't want to run away from this moment. Something clicked in my brain, it made me reckless; it made me feel spontaneous and carefree.
My heart hammered so loud that I couldn't hear his breathing. I look away for a second as I thought back to when I was getting ready back at home with Tanya. Oh how I wish I could turn back in time and not have her with me... I look back, my mind burning with determination.
I hold his gaze, seeing him still wait for my response. If he wanted a response he was going to get one now. I shake my head, the words leaving my lips confident,
"I don't want it to stop. So for the love of God, don't control yourself"
