Sweet Obsession 9
A delightful lamb meal accompanied by homemade mint jelly and served with small roasted potatoes was savored by them. To top it off, they indulged in homemade pudding topped with whipped cream for dessert.
He gestured towards her lower lip, informing her that there was some cream on it. Before Serena had a chance to address it, he came over and used his thumb to wipe it away. Instead of removing his thumb, he glided it across her lower lip.
His gaze shifted towards her neck, her perfume wafting into his senses and overpowering them. Her lips appeared soft and alluring, tempting him.
Taking a step back, Serena felt a wave of desire wash over her body from his touch. The way he was looking at her made it evident that he was about to kiss her, and deep down, it was exactly what she desired.
She wanted Alex to yearn for her, to be consumed by desire. However, something held her back. She didn’t feel ready to commit to anyone, especially after the betrayal she experienced with Simon. She would be foolish to fall into the trap of this handsome, charismatic man who undoubtedly had numerous women willing to succumb to his charm.
She would not be ensnared by his tactics. The passionate encounter they shared at the bar remained etched in her memory, arousing her senses. But Serena reassured herself that she would not crave Alex or any other man again.
Alex felt an inexplicable pull towards the woman seated across from him. He couldn’t pinpoint exactly what it was that tugged at his heartstrings the most. Despite being with multiple women, most of whose names he couldn’t remember, he vividly recalled Serena’s name the moment she whispered it after their mind-blowing encounter in the restroom.
Alex possessed the looks, money, and fame, yet he had never found a woman as alluring and captivating as Serena. There was an indescribable quality about her that set her apart from any other woman he had known.
Serena jumped in surprise as thunder roared, causing her body to tremble as the sound reverberated throughout the mansion. She adored rain but despised the sudden sound of thunder. It terrified her to the core, a phobia she had since childhood and had been unable to overcome even in adulthood.
“How old are you?” Alex inquired, having noticed her jump at the sound of thunder. He tried engaging her in conversation, hoping to alleviate her fear.
“Huh?” Serena looked up, unsure if she had heard correctly.
“How old are you?” he repeated, taking a sip of his mango juice.
“Twenty- four” she replied, puzzled as to why he was asking her age.
Inquired Alex, glancing at her direction, “Are you certain?”
Pausing her meal, Serena gazed at him, pondering what he was implying, “What do you mean?”
“You don’t seem to be twenty-two, perhaps thirty-two,” he remarked nonchalantly, without bothering to make eye contact.
Ivana slammed her utensils loudly onto the table, earning a glare from Alex, who smirked mischievously at her. “Seriously? Are you my biological parents?” She growled at him, her voice escalating.NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.
Amused by his ability to easily provoke her anger, Alex chuckled. He had initially believed her when she said she was twenty-four, but wanted to playfully tease her. “Calm down, it was just a joke.”
Filled with anger, Serena stood up. “A joke? Do you find it funny to refer to me as a thirty-two-year-old woman? Do I really look that old?” She asked, tears welling up in her eyes. “You know what? I’m done with whatever I’m doing here in your apartment. I don’t care if it’s raining-I’m going back to my own place.” Serena forcefully pushed her chair aside and stormed out of the dining room.
Displeased with being spoken to in such a manner, Alex, recognizing her sharp tongue, felt the need to assert himself. He placed his cup on the table and followed her without hesitation.
Before she could enter the bedroom, Alex grabbed Serena and pushed her against the wall. Their bodies pressed against one another, their faces mere inches apart. He could feel her warm breath against his face. “I don’t appreciate being spoken to that way. I apologize if the joke went too far. You are alluring, even if you are thirty two”
Ivana’s heart skipped a beat as he drew closer to her. She was left speechless by his final remark. “What do you want?” She realized instantly that she shouldn’t have asked when she saw the look on his face.
He pulled her into his arms and lowered his mouth onto hers, slowly inserting his tongue between her lips. Sensually, he explored the inside of her mouth, moving with precision.
As she struggled to break free, he held her tightly, intensifying the kiss, demanding even more passionately.
Gradually, her struggling ceased, and her moans resonated against his mouth. Her hands wrapped around his neck, reciprocating his kiss with equal passion.
As the rain poured harder, Alex’s kiss grew more profound. He pulled her closer to his body as thunder roared, and she tilted her head back when his mouth moved to her neck, sucking, kissing, and nibbling. Her eyes shut as he cupped her breasts in his hand.
Gently pinching her hardened nipples while lightly massaging them, Serena had completely forgotten her furious anger towards him just a few seconds ago.
It seemed as though her brain had ceased to function, causing her to disregard the promise she had made to herself never to allow his touch again. Her heated core throbbed relentlessly, desperately yearning for his touch.
With his lips on her neck and his hand on her breasts, Alex’s erection grew harder. She felt incredible as she tasted him, and he couldn’t resist the urge to have her in his bed. Nothing was going to hinder him from making her his.
Lifting his head, he noticed her eyes were already closed, her lips slightly parted, and her chest rising and falling with each breath. It was evident that she was surrendering herself to him.
