The Girl He Craves

Sophie’s pov

Fury. Burning fury. That’s all I felt when I punched in his floor number brutally. I wasn’t allowed up there,

but right now I didn’t care.

I had nothing to lose anymore.

Aiden only gave me more than enough reason to leave.

As soon as the elevator doors slid open, I stepped out of the lift seething as my heels slammed against

the floor with the harsh and stormy way I walked.

If Aiden was the storm then I was going to be the hurricane today

I was going to give him a piece of my mind.

Ceo or not, he does not get to be my bully anymore.

He’ll not bully me into staying.

I clutched the paper in my grasp tightly, my anger burning in my belly hotly.

The woman, Noel, I suppose is her name, lifts her head quickly when she hears my loud storming

footfalls.

Her brows rise in surprise but she swiftly regains her composure and stands up.

“You’re not allowed to be in here Noel started with a scowl, but I pinned her with one of my own.

“Shut up you damn parrot.” I snapped and stormed past her with the paper clutched in my hand.

She looked stunned by my hostility and flinched when I passed her without glancing at her.

“You’re not allowed here you wench!” She snarled behind me and I’m well aware of her quick footsteps

behind me.

Wench? Are we in the 19th century? I ignored her and walked faster.

I swung the door open before she could stop me, my eyes falling on the guy who was always running

through my mind without warning.

The guy who was now causing me distress and anger.

Aiden.

He seemed to have been pacing his floor, because as soon as the door thrust open he whips around,

angry with cold furious eyes.

But when he noticed it was me standing in his doorway, seething like a kettle, the anger slowly

diminishes in his eyes.

“You!” I start with a seethe on my tongue as I glared at him.

I knew I was disrespecting my boss and surely I could really pay for it.

But at the moment, I didn’t care.

“Mr.

Xavier, I’m so sorry.

I tried to stop her but Noel rushed in, shouldering me harshly.

I turn my glare to her, praying that it would cause some damage.

“It’s fine.

Excuse us, Noel.” Aiden said without emotion, waving a hand casually before placing them in his front

pockets.

He seems unfazed by my anger and it irks me.

I want to throttle him and probably kick him where the sun doesn’t shine.

But I hold in my anger until Noel is out of the door and we were the only two left in the room.

As soon as the door closes behind her, I turn my furious gaze to the ‘Ceo

He still looks unfazed by my anger and that resulted in me taking a step forward.

“What makes you think you have a say in what I want to do Mr Xavier? I want to resign from my post,

and I’m going to do it whether you like it or not I took another step forward when he leaned on his desk,

crossing his ankles and crossing his arms over his chest Aiden’s stormy gaze sweeps over my body,

lingering on my lips that tingled.

“That’s not happening.” He said coldly I blanched in shock.

Was he really going to keep me here against my will?

What the hell was his problem? “You’re threatening an innocent man just to get your way.

What you’re doing is wrong, you can’t keep me here against my will.

This is preposterous!” I huffed, flinging my arms out in frustration

Aiden’s brow lifts and he looks at me with a tiny gleam of amusement that had me gritting my teeth.

Was this some kind of entertainment to him? Was some kind of joke?

| slammed my heels on the floor, and sure it was childish to do so, but I wanted my frustration to come

across.

“You’re unbelievable.” I shook my head.

What would it take for his composure to crumble? Aiden lifted one of his shoulders in a barely there

shrug, the corner of his mouth lifting.

My stomach knotted.

I hated how much he still affected me.

“Throwing a tantrum Miss.

Bell?” He taunted, staring at me dead in the eye.

I ripped my gaze away quickly, not wanting him to pin me there.

Aiden wasn’t going to lose his composure that much was clear.

Coming here and speaking to him was of no use.

He’d just get exactly what he wanted.

To frustrate me.

I shook my head.

He was still a bully.

Still the same bully that couldn’t take no for an answer and thought he could get away with everything.

I’m so done with having to listen to him.

Straightening my spine, I approached him.

He looks stunned by my boldness, with both his brows lifted a bit and his eyes wavering to my mouth.

I breathed out through my parted lips and stiffen when I can take the scent of his cologne from here.

My stomach twisted.

I shake my head.

Get a hold of yourself Soph.

Show him he doesn’t affect you the slightest.

I place the resignation letter on his desk, look at him with a glare, and said.

“Here.” I turn around to leave, my knees feeling a little shaky as the reality of what I had just done hit

me.

I was really leaving My thoughts froze when I felt Aiden’s warm fingers wrapping around my upper arm

and turning me around to face him.

His eyes are a stormier blue and the way they pierced through mine made my inner thighs tingle.

! could already feel the sleek heat brushing down my folds by just the intensity of his gaze

“I wasn’t done talking.” He said coldly, his fingers around my arm growing even firmer.

My eyes fall to his fingers around my arm and then my eyes flickered back up.

“Let go of me.” I said stiffly I needed him to let me go as soon as possible.

It wasn’t because his hold was alarming, but because his close proximity and touch was sending

unwanted signals to my body.

But instead of doing as I ask, Aiden’s head dips and his blue storm levels with mine.

They had me sucking in a very sharp breath through my mouth, one I knew he heard because his gaze

moved from mine to stare at my lips.

I could feel my nipples turning into peaks and rubbing against the lace of my bra.

“You know that’s something I cannot do.” He said with his tone husky, his head dipping even more until

his warm breath feathers against my lips.

They part in anticipation and my heart roars in my chest.

I’m a panting mess in just a few seconds.

“Aiden,” I breathed out, completely lost about where my anger went and was now replaced with this

itching desire to have him kiss me.

Three years.

Three years without his lips against mine and now I realized how much I really did miss them

connected with mine.

“I told you to not call me that.” He growled lowly and in a shocking second, his free hand is behind my

head, pulling me closer until that breath apart was no more.

Igasp, shocked to feel the first brush of his lips against mine.

But it didn’t last just a brush, no.

As soon as our lips touched Alden pressed his lips harder on mine almost brutally.

He pulled me closer, tilting my head before swiping his tongue over my bottom lip.
