The Girl He Craves

81

Aiden’s pov

Austin gave me many pointers that I would definitely use.

Don’t rush.

Don’t be too impulsive.

Don’t get angry at her much.

Give her time to warm up to the idea of her not being the only one to take care of Ashton alone.

Give her reasons to trust me.

Treat her with respect.

I can do those simple things….

Except, maybe I’d have a little trouble with moving slowly with her. I’ve always wanted that woman, I craved that woman for years. Now that we would always be tied together forever because of our son, there was nothing that can be in my way to get her.

Well except for her heart and mind. This two had a vindic- tive over me, I was sure.

I shake my head. Of course I had to get her heart first if I even want her…

I looked over at the clock. It was almost twelve. Almost noon. Lunchtime.

This was a nice way to do something for her. Maybe if I buy her lunch she’d not be so angry. Though she had a good reason to be. She did see that dirty thong in the drawer and that s*upid note that suggested I had sex with Noel. Which I did not!

Women….

Some can be snakes when they want to. I’ll have that b**h pay dearly. I will leave a bad review for her and spoil her name. I want to see if she can get herself a new job and get herself out of the gutter.

I would feed her, her karma personally.

She should’ve known I’d retaliate after she pulled that stunt and made Sophie build back those walls I was trying to break. And sure it wasn’t close to breaking but it did c**ck a bit when I pulled her into my arms and kissed her.

I felt her melt into me. Her mouth had turned soft and she definitely kissed me back.

She was still attracted to me, especially with how she gave in to me yesterday. And sure I said something nasty and un- forgiving to her but I hope that she would someday find it in her to forgive me for my s**pid words.

Sometimes I believe I should have a filter or a d**n tape on my mouth. I say the s**dest s**t at the wrong time and now it has cost me more.

My words had scarred her into not trusting herself to give in to me. I had a lot to fight against but I wasn’t one to back down.

I don’t care how long it takes, Sophie will be mine and we will be a family.

I just need to tread these waters carefully and hopefully, she’d open up to me and weaken those walls. For now, I need to work on making her trust me.

I picked up the phone and dialed her. She picks up quickly and her soft voice sends a shock to my c**k that stirred.

That’s something I need to work on too. When it comes to her my c**k doesn’t really know when to calm down.

“Sophie,” I breathed out while fixing myself on the chair in hopes that my c**k would calm down.

“Mr. Xavier.” She answers bluntly.

I winced. I couldn’t exactly be mad at her for her cold emotionless tone. But I would admit seeing her jealous flush

was rather cute.

I picked up the pen, my heart racing. It feels like I am a teenager all over again. How embarrassing.

I’m literally sweating buckets, nerves wrecking my compo- sure. She’s not even here in the room and I’m a nervous wreck. Embarrassing indeed.

“It’s noon now. Are you hungry?” As soon as I asked that question I leaned forward in anticipation of her answer.

She takes a few seconds to respond. “Famished actually. I was just about to head to your office to ask for permission to leave for lunch-

My palm slam against the desk lightly as I rushed out.

“No!”

I heard her sharp intake of breath. Obviously, she was stunned by my sudden outburst.

I cleared my throat and scratched the back of my head in embarrassment. Great. I f**ked up already. Again.

I cleared my throat.

“I mean no, no need to leave for lunch. I’ll order some- thing to eat and you can come to the office to eat here. What do you crave for?” I asked nervously.

To my disappointment and not so much shock, Sophie denied. “No that’s fine Mr. Xavier. No need to order me lunch, I’ll just head to the staff canteen and look for something there like the rest of your employees.”

I gritted my teeth. I hated that she referred to me as ‘Mr. Xavier’ as if we were strangers. We had a son, we were com- pletely far from being strangers.

“No, I insist Sophie. We need to talk about Ashton any- way. All we’ve done since morning was argue and more argu- ing. I think it would be good to talk about Ashton over lunch. That way we both would be more relaxed.”
