39. CHAPTER 39
ARIA
S ummer had drawn to an end, and autumn had crept in with the rain.
I hung up my black duffle coat, sat at my desk, and watched the water droplets fall off it. I sighed, missing the warmth already.
I opened my laptop, ready to see what today would hold. Sebastian was due back after a few days away on business. I was so used to having him around that it felt weird waking up without him.
The first morning felt like it did four years ago when he left, but he soon called me when he landed. It didn’t stop me from missing him—he was like a drug, and I was addicted to him.
I took a deep breath in, closing my eyes briefly. I could faintly smell his cologne, which seemed to get stronger with each breath. Before I could open my eyes, a pair of hands covered them.
“Guess who?” Sebastian whispered in my ear.
I paused for a moment. “Hmmm, is it that really hot guy that works in the finance department?”
The hands soon removed themselves as my chair spun around to face Sebastian, who narrowed his eyes at me. “What hot guy in finance?”
I covered my mouth, trying to stop the laughter from escaping as Sebastian just looked at me, shaking his head.
“You're not even funny, do you know that?” He chuckled, pulling me into his chest and squeezing me tight.
“How was the trip?” I asked.
“Usual shit I had to sort out because of Dad.”
I didn’t know too much, but I knew Sebastian’s dad, Stephen, had left the company near financial collapse.
Sebastian had pushed him out to take over and keep his granddad’s name intact.
The board members had given him six months to turn the business around.
He’d worked hard and managed to get it back on track, but some of them still kept a close eye on him.
“Ok, I’ve got work to do,” I told him, resting my hands on his chest for a few seconds and then pulling away to sit down.
“Do you really, though?”
“Yes, I do,” I said, playfully swatting his chest.
“Well, as my PA, you need to come with me to get breakfast.”
“What, you need me to hold your hand now?” I teased.
“That's exactly what I need.”
I heard the door open from the main office and turned to see Mr Kingsley walk through.
He was the oldest board member and owned the second-highest shares in the company, after Sebastian’s dad.
“We need to talk,” he said to Sebastian.
“Then book an appointment with my PA.”
Mr Kingsley tensed, the wrinkles on his forehead stretching in frustration.
“It doesn’t work like that.”
Sebastian chuckled softly, straightening his cuffs. “Oh, but it does. No one, not even you, gets to demand to see me.”
Mr Kingsley pointed at Sebastian. “You need to remember it’s not you, but your dad who has the shares.”
Sebastian took a step closer. “And you, Mr Kingsley, need to remember that if it wasn’t for me, you wouldn’t have any shares at all.”
“Don’t push me, boy.”
Sebastian smiled and dusted off Mr Kingsley’s shoulder. “You can see yourself out. Don’t come back until you have an appointment.”
Mr Kingsley snorted, storming back out into the main office.
I watched as Sebastian straightened his suit jacket, then ran his fingers through his hair.
“Sebastian, don’t you think you were a bit of an asshole? You need him on side.”
He raised his brows at me. “That’s not me being an asshole. This is me being an asshole.”
Blue flames ran through his eyes as he gently took hold of my wrist, pulling me into his office.
“Sebastian, what the fuck are you doing?” I said, trying to pull myself free.
In one sweep, he pushed the contents of his desk to the floor. My heart was pounding, heat spreading over my body.
“Hands on the desk,” he ordered.
“What? No.” I snapped back, swallowing hard, although my breathing was heavy, the heat between my thighs betraying me.
“Don’t be a bad girl, Nyx. Do as you’re told.”
I turned, placing my hands on the desk, trying to steady my breathing.
“Good girl,” he growled, as I heard him unclip his belt buckle.
His hands ran over my arse, then down my thighs as he grabbed my skirt, hitching it up.
“This is why you wear skirts for me.”
He grabbed my arse, then spanked me hard, causing my body to move, a moan escaping my lips. My skin was burning, ready for him to fully enter me. He ripped my knickers down and thrusted hard into me. My body jolted, pleasure running through me.
He pushed harder, faster, pounding into me as he ran his hand over my back, reaching my neck and tightly gripping. Every nerve in my body was sparking, lighting everything up at once. I was so hot for him right now. My moans were intense, begging him to make me come.
“You’re all mine,” he growled, pushing deeper into me. “I’ll never have enough of you.”
“Sebastian …”
“That’s my girl. Now come for me.”
He didn’t have to ask twice. I screamed, my legs shaking, everything inside falling apart all at once.
“Oh, fuck, Nyx,” he groaned.
I felt his body jerk, his cum flowing into me as he thrusted deep, letting out a growl. He slowly withdrew his cock, then ran his fingers over my pussy, causing me to flinch with how sensitive I was.
“Look at me.”
I turned, trying to catch my breath. He sucked his fingers, tasting both of us, before pulling my knickers up and hitching my skirt back down.
“Every time you walk, you’ll feel me dripping out of you.”
My body was tingling, goose bumps rising at his words. I wrapped my arms around his neck, crashing my lips to his. I was so fucking aroused by him.
I lay on the sofa at my place, half watching some rom-com film I’d put on to waste the time waiting for Sebastian to finish up work.
I’d been spending more time at his recently, and I needed some fresh clothes and other items to take over.
He told me he’d buy me new ones, but he didn’t need to waste money like that when I already had them.
He said he’d pick me up when he finished in the office. My phone buzzed with a message.
Sebastian: I’m leaving now. I won’t be long.
Aria: See you soon x
I pressed the side button, locking the phone, and looked back at the TV, when there was a knock at the door.
I sat up, alert, and noticed an envelope poking underneath.
I paused for a moment before retrieving it and opening it slowly, a few red rose petals falling out in the process.
I will see you soon, my love.
