“I met Elizabeth that day,” Ace replied without betraying any emotions. My heart just sank at his words although I should have felt a little better for the fact that he still told me the truth. Ace didn’t show any signs that he was going to explain himself or his actions to me and I wasn’t sure if I wanted to hear any more truth from him. Suddenly, it felt like my frail little heart wouldn’t be able to take it after all. “Why did you meet up with her? You told me that something urgent happened at work. Why did you lie?” I asked as I tried to suppress the tears that were threatening to well up in my eyes. “I wasn’t lying. Something did happen at work,” Ace replied flatly. “Why didn’t you just tell me that you were going to meet up with her?” I asked as I glared at him. “Rina, if you’re going to get all emotional about this, I suggest that you stop this and go to bed,” Ace advised sternly. “No! I cannot and I will not stop until I learn the truth about what is going on. Why did yo
“Would you believe anything that I say at this point?” Ace asked as he cocked his head a little to the side to observe my reactions. I didn’t have any answer for him because I wasn’t sure about that myself. Ace’s intense gaze continued to rest on my face while I chewed on the inside of my lower lip as I hesitated. “I’m willing to listen. So please, tell me what is really going on…” I replied after trying my best to pick the right words. “It’s still true. Elizabeth and I may have a very complicated relationship but we are not involved with each other in the way that you think. I’ve met her many times, but it was all for work,” he replied to my earlier question calmly. “And you can’t tell me what work you two have been working on, right?” I asked although I already knew the answer. Ace just nodded his head at me once and that was his response to my question. Now it was up to me whether or not I would believe him. Ace didn’t say anything else but his eyes were still on my face while
“Ace…” I murmured his name before I found out that I didn’t quite know what to say to him.“Stop frowning, Rina. You’ll get lines all over your beautiful face…” Ace reprimanded me half-jokingly. I felt the warmth of his hand against the side of my face before his fingertips slid down to cup my chin and tip my head up slightly. His other hand approached my face and then I felt his fingers trying to stop the skin in between my brows from creasing. I didn’t know how to react to how seriously he seemed to be taking this. “You know, if you seriously don’t want me to frown like this, then you should stop making me worry about you…” I muttered darkly. “Well, since there’s not much that I can do about that, I’ll just help keep your brows away from each other…” Ace replied with a chuckle. I didn’t quite think that it was funny but the atmosphere around us seemed to have lightened somewhat. Things were a far cry from being normal between us but it seemed like things may just work out in the
“About my promise to marry you?” Ace asked as if in pure disbelief. I just nodded my head at him as I kept my eyes cast downwards. It felt quite embarrassing now that I had voiced my worries out loud. I had no idea why he seemed so shocked at what I had just told him. Wasn’t it supposed to be logical for me to think that way? After all, he did link our marriage pretty much to the success of the company’s expansion. “I think I’m starting to understand the cause of all of this misunderstanding now. Listen, Rina…” Ace said as his hands reached out to grab my shoulders tightly. I looked up into his hazel brown eyes as Ace took in a deep breath before slowly letting it out. “You’ve got it all wrong, Rina…” he said in dismay as he shook his head slowly from side to side. “I’m sorry…but I don’t really understand…” I murmured. His suddenly depressed reaction tugged at my heart and a sense of guilt quickly welled up in my chest and made me feel empty inside. I didn’t like to see Ace that
I made some room for Ace before waiting for him to climb into the bathtub. Suddenly, it felt like there was too much water in the tub and the water was about to overflow after Ace’s entry. I quickly reached over to turn off the tap while Ace sat down comfortably and leaned back against the bathtub. “That was close…” I whispered under my breath. “Come here, Rina…” Ace urged lazily. I turned around to see him smiling at me as he waved me over with his hand. Ace still looked tired and I thought that catching up on some sleep would probably do him good. Despite that, I still thought that the looked as attractive as always as our eyes met. Suddenly, I felt slightly shy, but I didn’t want to keep Ace waiting for too long because I didn’t want to risk ruining the mood. Just as I knew that Ace wanted, I sat down with my back to him in between his legs before his arms wrapped themselves around my waist and held me naturally against him. I could feel the heat of his skin against my back as
I turned my head back and his lips were immediately on mine. My lips automatically parted to grant his hot and wet tongue access to the cave of my mouth. His tongue was impatient when it met mine as our kiss deepened. I could feel his desire as he entwined his tongue with mine in a fervent dance that told me better than words could ever describe how much wanted me. My tongue moved against his as I kissed him back eagerly. His hand stroked its way down the curve of my body from my chest along my waist before he began stroking the side of my hips. I moaned into our kiss as I let him freely devour me. His kiss was so aggressive, but I didn’t mind it at all, in fact, I thoroughly enjoyed his impassioned kiss. I made small whimpering sounds in my throat as our tongues continued moving against each other. “Ahh…” I moaned loudly when Ace’s lips finally parted from mine. I was panting hard by that time as I struggled to catch my breath. Ace’s hand slipped between my thighs and began stroki
“Come on, Rina. Stick my fingers into your pussy…” Ace coaxed encouragingly into my ear.The sultry tone of his voice and the warmth of his breath gently hitting against my ear turned me on even more than before. I gulped before I began guiding his hand in between my legs. “Ahh…” I moaned when I felt his fingertips against my wet opening. “Good girl…” Ace complimented me when I began guiding his fingers along my wet slit.It felt so strange but so pleasurable. My hips lifted upwards, pushing my pussy up against his thick and long fingers. I wanted to feel his fingers deep inside of me and I couldn’t wait any longer. Quickly, I parted my legs and pushed his fingers into my slippery pussy hole. “Oh…Ahhhh…” I moaned before crying out as two of his fingers penetrated into me. I pushed against his hand until the entire length of his fingers were buried deep inside of my love hole. His thick fingers stretched my opening before filling me up deep inside. It felt so good although he hadn’
“I understand that you don’t trust me, but unlike Elizabeth, Kyle is not someone that can be trusted at all. I don’t want you near him. Promise me that you won’t contact him again. Can you do that?” he asked sternly. I didn’t quite understand why he was being so serious and pushy about it. At least he wasn’t showing just how mad he was at me for meeting up with Kyle behind his back. Maybe he was jealous because I used to date Kyle before, but something told me that it was something perhaps beyond just that. “Fine. I promise…” I said in resignation. “Thank you, Rina…” Ace murmured sweetly.I couldn’t help but smile a little when he pulled me closer to him and placed a soft kiss on my forehead as if that was a little reward that he wanted to give me for making that promise to him. Our eyes met when his face parted from mine a little. I could see and sense the desires in the depth of his hazel eyes and that told me that the night was far from over. Ace kissed the tip of my nose softl
