*sola*

My head was swimming. I didn't know how to react. I stared at the man in front of me.

"Can we take a sit over there and talk?" he asked. Looking expectantly at me.

Before I could form any reply to give him, Clara was in front of me.
"Alex, did you come here to talk to me? Oh my gosh I'm so flattered, let's go take a sit"
But Alex remained where he was, never taking his eyes off me as he replied Clara.

"I came to see Sola. Not you." His voice was firm. Like before. That voice alone could make a grown woman melt.

My Ben came forward looking shocked and flustered at Alex. Every other staffs were also gathered around. Looking like he was some kind of trophy or diamond. It made me very conscious of myself.

"Mr.. Mr Williams. It's an honor to have you dine at our humble restaurant." said Mr Ben, shaking Alex's hand. He smiled politely at Mr Ben. While Clara just stood by his side, fuming at me. I was in for it tonight.

"thank you" Alex replied Mr Ben. Glancing back at me. "But.. I only came here to discuss some.. Matters with Sola. Can you please give the permission to..."

"no, no, of course sir, you don't even need to ask" Mr Ben quickly replied, giggling like a little girl that just got a lollipop from her mom. I frowned at him. "She's all yours."

I glared at Mr Ben. He was talking like I wasn't even there, the annoying man.
Before I knew what happened, I was in the confines of my office, with Alex closing the door with a soft click.

My heart sped up as he slowly turned around. Our eyes locked.
I breathed in deep, I was so aware of this man. This beautiful man, who commanded so much power just by walking into a room. I don't know why I believed he could have been a driver when it was so clear that he looked every bit of a ruthless business mogul.

We stared at each other. The tension in air was magnetic. Drawing us into each other. He affected me so much, it was disturbing. Over the weeks I had tried to kill the chemistry I had felt deep in my body for this man, I thought it worked. But now he was here and I could feel my breath falling short, for him.

"Why are you here?" I asked him, my voice barely above a whisper. I was still offended about the whole ignoring. And even the lies.
I was about to tell him to get out when I was suddenly pulled into his chest by him. I gasped in surprise at his action.

"What-"
But I didn't get to finish my sentence as I felt his strong lips crash onto mine.

I was too shocked to move at first, my eyes wide open as I realized what had just happened. He just kissed me. Alex was kissing me. I placed my palms on his chest to push him away. But I couldn't. I didn't. I felt his muscles ripple beneath my palms as I spread my hands.

I felt his hands go round my waist, as he pulled me in deeper. Then I felt his right hand move downward and grab my ass hard against him.

I gasped as the sensations slammed into me. It gave him the opportunity to sweep his tongue into my month as the kiss got much more deeper.
He turned me around and my back was against the door as he placed one of his hands on my hip. The second one holding my neck. he held my head upwards so he could deepen the kiss further.

I was so lost into him that I didn't realize the reality of what was happening. I felt his hands squeeze my left breast and I moaned into his mouth helplessly.

I kissed him back with abandon, not caring about anything else, not caring if I was at work. not caring if Clara was outside waiting for an explanation.
Clara was outside!
"No!" I pushed him away with all my might.

Fortunately, he pulled back with ease, I knew I couldn't have pushed him with my strength because he was too big. Though there was not an ounce of fat on his body. Just muscles.
He was gazing at me, his eyes full of.. Desire. He was breathing in short pants. Just like me. We stared at each other for a few moments before I broke in first.

"You.. You had no right. No right to do what you just did!" I said, my voice very husky, like I was drunk by his kisses. This was not good.

He smirked at me, mockingly. "Did you stop me Sola?"

I felt my face flame up in embarrassment. Of course I didn't stop him, I had given back what I'd received.

"You're going to push the blame on me? What if Clara had walked in here and met us like that!" my voice was raised high but I didn't mind. I was angry at him.

"and why are you here Mr Williams?" I asked, emphasizing on his name.

He chuckled. "I'm here for you Sola. You're even more beautiful than I remember"

It felt like my knees were going to buckle out from under me so I leaned into the door to support myself.

"I have nothing to do with you Mr Williams so I suggest you leave." I said with grim determination. Raising my chin up at him.

"Feels like you're angry at me, Sola" he said, smiling at me.

"After you ignored my texts and lied about your identity? Spare me the humor please!"

"could you keep your voice down?" he said, frowning at me.
He then walked over to the chair in front of my table and sat, gesturing me to come over.

"Sola, first of all.. I'm so sorry I haven't replied to your texts, I was tremendously busy, I just got back from the states yesterday. And I didn't want to give you a shallow reply on a silly phone texting. I wanted to come to you. In person." he explained, his eyes burning into mine.
I visibly relaxed.
" and as for the lie about who I am... Sola, I wanted you to know me for who I am. Answer me honestly, Sola. If you had known immediately that I was Alex Williams, would you have spent time with me?"

"well.. I would have ran in the opposite direction." I answered honestly because I knew it was what I would have done.

Alex laughed lightly at my answer.
"Now you see. I'm so sorry I gave you missed impressions about me Sola. It was never my intention to trick you."

I didn't know what to say now that he had apologized. I folded my arms around my middle as I stared at him.
He got up and held both of my hands in his bigger ones.

" Am I forgiven? " he asked, leaning to drop a kiss on my cheek, my nose, my chin.
My eyes closed as I felt his sweet breath on my face. I had no control over my mind and body. Why was this happening? I asked myself.

"ye... Yes"
His lips closed over mine as we entered into another session of deep kissing. I didn't know when he pulled me up, my legs wrapped around his waist as he placed me on my office wide table. Pushing me on to my back as he moved on top of me. This was all happening so fast. Too fast for me.

"Alex.." I gasped between wet kisses. "I can't, please" I felt his tongue lick on that sweet spot on my neck and I moaned loudly, pushing my self into him.

"Sola, you know what is going on between us. You know I want you. I'm not gonna hide it or try and pretend for you. I want you. Badly."

I stared at him as I processed his words.

"I... I want you too, Alex. But.. Its all too soon."

He sighed, closing his eye for few seconds. Then he pulled back.
I didn't know if I should feel happy or disappointed because I missed his skin and warmth on my body.

He straightened his shirt and gave me a hand, to pull me up.

" you want me to take my time Sola? You want me to be patient and woo you? Then that's what I'm going to do. I won't let you go sugar."

I smiled at the nick name. Sugar.

He pulled me in once more and tenderly placed a soft kiss on my forehead. I sighed with happiness, closing my eyes.
I felt his finger push my already scattered hair to the back of my ear.

"See you soon, sugar. " He said. And walked out of the room, leaving the door open.
I stood there frozen for a while, marveling at what had just happened.
Alex had just touched me, kissed me, said sweet words to me. I smiled silently, putting my hand on my racing heart.
I was so excited that I didn't know when Clara walked in till she slammed the door hard.
She stalked towards me, hands on her waist, glaring at me.

"You are going to tell me what that man came in here for, and what you both talked about. You are going to spill everything out now Sola."

"I don't know Clara" I replied, exhausted. I moved to walk behind my desk but she stopped me, grabbing my arm.

"I don't what witchery you did to get him to notice you, But know this Sola, that man is mine. He's mine Sola. Avoid him or you'll jeopardize our friendship and you will regret it." she said and walked out. Leaving me staring at her in shock.
