*Naomi’s POV*
I stare at him as he comes to the realisation of what he has said. He just told me he loves me, but do I love him? Am I there yet? I climb out of the bed almost immediately and make my way to the en-suite, but before entering, I turn my head slightly.
“I’m sorry, Elias. I don’t know what to say to that,” I mumbled, then went straight into the shower. I could hear him cursing himself as he fumbled to get his clothes on while banging into everything in his path, and then I heard the bang of the door closing as he left, and I sighed in relief. I sat on the floor of the shower, with the water running over my hair, contemplating what I thought of what he said properly. Initially, I was shocked but now? I feel sad. I’m so stupid not to say anything at all and run off like that. I should have just told him the truth. I’m just out of a relationship where they cheated on me, and I’m just not ready for that commitment. Those words make everything so real so quick, but what if he got angry at me like he did when I rushed off? Would he have? Would he not have? I’m just so conflicted.
I sat there for a while and finally concluded that I would tell him the truth, just not right now. I will sleep on it tonight and tell him tomorrow. I start walking into my bedroom and I hear the door close as I close in on the bathroom door. Oh no.
“Elias?” I whimper.
“No, cara. It’s me, Lina.”
I was shocked as I walked in and found her sitting on the end of my bed.
“Can we talk?” She queried.
“Little bit of an awkward time, but sure.”
“Sorry for the intrusion cara. I seen Elias walk out of the house angry and got nosey,” she smirked. “I figured it would be easier to get why out of you.”
Wow, she intuitive. “Well, um…” I fidgeted awkwardly.
“So, you did have a fight then?”
Scarily intuitive. “Yes,” I said lowering my head to look at the floor.
“What about?”
“He told me he loved me,” I squeaked.
I looked up to find her eyes widened. “Wow,” she muttered, returning to her usual motherlike self. “Why did you argue?
“Well, the thing is,” I choked. “We didn’t actually fight. I told him to get out and ran into my bathroom.”
“Oh cara,” she sighed. “Are you okay? Why did you run?”
I explained the situation to her about not being ready, and why, and she just nodded through me talking.
“I get it, but you should talk to Elias about it. He will understand,” she reassured me. “He may be the big boss of a mafia, but he’s a big softy at heart. He appreciates honestly more than anything. Probably because it’s hard to find in this world.”
“Thanks, Lina,” I smiled. “You always know how to make me feel better.”
She grinned. “Well, I am heading to bed now. Do you need anything before you go?”
“No, thanks Lina. You’ve done enough for me tonight.”
“It’s a pleasure as always, cara.” She blew me a kiss before getting up and walking out the door.
The next morning, I got up to find a letter under my door. I opened it to find it read “Meet me in my office ASAP, Elias.” Oh s**t. He seems mad at me.
I get dressed as quick as I can and throw my hair up. Once I’m dressed and ready to go, I walk up to his office door. I knock three times and gulp.
“Come in!” He grunted.
I walk in to find him facing the back wall. I closed the door behind me and walked towards his desk. He turned suddenly and started towards me so fast he was scaring me, until my back hit the door. He grabbed my hands and fell to the ground, lowering his head to look at the floor.
“I’m so sorry, bella. Please forgive me,” he begged.
I stood in shock at the sight before me, and then lowered myself to the floor to kneel in front of him. I grabbed his chin and pulled it up until his eyes looked into mine.
“You have absolutely no reason to be sorry, I do,” I muttered through tears, and found myself lowering my head to look down.
He did the same as I did to him and made me look him in the eyes.
“You do not need to be sorry,” he said while wiping my tears away.
“I do. I ran away from you last night instead of just being honest with you and letting you know why I wasn’t ready for those words to be said by either of us.” I went on to explain everything that I had spoke to Lina about last night.
When I finished, he pulled me into a tender kiss. “I appreciate you telling me the truth, bella. I understand why you got so scared, but just know, you can tell me anything that is on your mind. I am a man of my word, and I promise you here and now, I will never berate you for telling me the truth about anything.”
I pulled him into an intense kiss. I can imagine this man being the next man I say those three words to. I started unbuttoning his shirt eagerly. He lets me and starts pulling down my leggings. Suddenly he pulls my underwear to the side and starts using his fingers inside me hungrily, as if his fingers craved the feel of my v****a.
“Oh, yes,” I moaned. “Oh, my goodness you’re gonna make me c-come.”
“Come for me, bella” he whispered seductively in my ear.
As if like clockwork with those words, I exploded with an intense orgasm that ripped through my whole body making me scream.
“Your turn,” I say hungrily as I push him to lie on his back. I pull his trousers and boxers down hurriedly and start kissing my way back up his legs. When I reach his balls, I give them a gentle suck. I can hear him moan in absolute pleasure and I smile. I continue up to his d**k and start sucking hard and fast.
“Oh, bella,” he moaned loudly. “You’re g-going to need to stop t-that unless you w-want to come r-right now!”
“Don’t even dare.”
I stop sucking and kiss my way up to his lips and plant them on his.
“Get on all fours,” he said while scurrying to position himself behind me, and then he pushed himself inside me. I moaned louder than I ever have before as he continued to pound into me from behind.
“Oh, my goodness I’m gonna come again,” I shouted.
“Do it, bella,” he grunted. “I want to come with you.”
A few pushes later and we both screamed in pleasure as we came harmoniously. He fell beside me and pulled me into his chest. I could hear both our heartbeats beating crazily.
“f**k me,” he rasped.
“Isn’t that what we just did?” I smirked, still trying to catch my breath. We both let out giggles and lay there for a while, still on the floor of his office.
“Wow, I never knew s*x could feel so amazing.” I exasperated.
“Really?” He said looking at me. I raise an eyebrow and he understands why.
“Don’t get me wrong that was the best s*x I’ve ever had but have you never had good s*x before?”
I laugh. “Good save bucko, And I thought I had, until you.” He smirks and gives me a quick kiss before lying his head back down on the ground.
The office phone starts ringing and startles us, and Elias makes his way to it quickly.
“Yes?” he grumps. “You found them? Great, I’ll be right down.”
He turns to me and says “I’m so sorry bella, but I have to go. Business.”
“Okay, how long will you be?”
“I don’t know, but I will try not to be too long. A few hours at most hopefully.”
“Okay, I’ll see you later then?”
“See you later, my bella,” he said while blowing me a kiss before he left.
I quickly got up and went to my room and fell on the bed, falling asleep instantly.
