Warning: This chapter may contain adult content not suitable for young readers.

"It feels so great to fall in love. But the saddest part is when two people love each other dearly, yet they know they can't stay together... It breaks them apart."

Gentle knocks...

"I'm coming! “Alyssa yelled from the kitchen. She opened the door with a cup in her hand.

"Wow! I smell brewed coffee! Good morning my Queen". He smiled at Alyssa and snatched her cheeks to pinch and kiss as he entered the room.

"I made one for you too, just in time ... grab it while it's still hot" she handed him the coffee mug on the kitchen counter.

"How was your sleep last night?" She asked.

Zack stared at her with a naughty look while walking towards Aly, who was standing at the corner side of the counter. She moved her eyeballs as she panicked.

“I couldn’t sleep. You know, I was thinking about you the whole time princess.” Still taking steps, towards where she was standing.

"What are you doing?" walking backward

"Hey!" she exclaimed.

Taking 2 more steps behind before she reached the wall and laid her back on it, as she stretched her hand over his chest to create a distance.

"You stop right there, Mister Lover boy!" she warned him, but Zack was not used to take orders from anyone so he ignored her.

Aly was about to run to the living room when Zack slammed his both hands on the wall, both sides to block her way out.

She was trapped between his buff arms.

“Where are you going young lady? I just want to kiss your lips” he mumbled.

Her heart skipped a beat when he started touching her face with his finger, down to her neck and to her collarbone as it trailed down.

And it felt so good. She was loving the feeling.

He raised her chin a bit and with his index finger he opened her lower lip so he can let his tongue play with hers, but she was immediately released under his spell when her phone rang.

She came back to her sense and covered her mouth right away with both hands.

"Why are you hiding your sweet lips from me baby?" Zack asked her with a mischievous smile.

"Zack! Stop it!" she exclaimed and then pouted here lips out of nowhere and he found the right moment to kissed her. He pecked on her lips and went running to the living room to hide his self.

"You thief! Wait till I get you. I will twist your neck!" she yelled at him and threw the small pillow she was able to grab from the sofa, as he ran around the living room before going to the bedroom and jumped over the bed.

She answered the phone after multiple missed call and it was Carmen, reporting the shop’s daily sales. After hearing the updates, she hung up and went straight to the room.

Alyssa stopped from the door opening and smirked. Zack was sitting upright while catching his breath.

"He looks cute!" she said at the back of her mind and Zack was inviting her to sit next to him, and that very moment upon seeing his sweet smile and sexy lips her heart started to throbbed wildly.

Her knees were shaking without realizing that she became uncomfortable seeing him in bed. Sweat beads all over her. She quickly ran outside and went to the kitchen to grab some iced cold water.

She gulped. Then sighed. She took a deep breath and then exhaled again.

Zack rushed to her with a worried face, grabbing her both shoulders within the palm of his hand

"Are you okay?" he asked as he wiped her sweat with his hanky.

Alyssa nodded. "I am, nothing to worry about" she looked down feeling shy

"Your face feels hot! What’s wrong with my baby?" he teased her like he knew what's going on with her.

"STOP!" Move away Zack" She ran to the bathroom without excusing herself and that maybe him chuckled.

"What's happening to you Alyssa Park? Why are you so tense every time you are with him, when he is in front of you?" Like crazy, she was talking to herself while washing her face with cold water to cool down the redness.

She felt her cheeks turned red a while ago when Zack touched her. Her body can't deny the fact that it was reacting over Zack's presence.

She never felt this way before. She grew perfectly fine around Marcus without any malice.

He is such a good looking man too just like Zack. He has an athletic built... Firm and buff.

They hold hands, hugged each other and play like kids at the park while he gave her a piggyback ride.

She never felt awkward towards him until the day of his love confession.

Since then, she no longer comfortable doing such things around him.

She felt scared every time he touched her. She fear that Marcus might be persuasive in kissing her and he might go beyond that once he get to taste her, so she never allow him to kiss her.

But towards Zack...it's different. There was a feeling of excitement in every touch. Her blood was rushing through her veins along with the burning sensation all over her body.

Zack was so tempting, his lips tasted sweet. No doubt that if she'll not control herself...she will definitely sin.

"Aly! What's taking you so long my babe? Are you sure you are okay? “He yelled on top of his lungs.

"I'm coming out Zack!" she screamed then pat her face with a towel. She came back to her senses.

The bathroom door opened.

Alyssa was surprised when she saw Zack was patiently standing outside- waiting for her to come out.

"HEY! You startled me. Why are you standing there huh?" she shouted and smirked.

"You made me so worried," he murmured into her ears, and she can smell the mint scent in his breath

"I have to go down to the reception area and start working. Can you do me a favor Zack?" softly she spoke as she walked through the living room to grab her shoulder bag and coat.

Zack was just listening to what she has to say while resting his back on the side of the wall.

She turned to Zack's direction and began giving him instructions “As we go down and meet people, please don't be too casual to me. You are my boss, that's what everybody knows, and..."

Before Aly could finish her reminders, Zack ran to her and grabbed her head to his chest. ”Hush I get it! You don't have to worry about that."

His face was resting over her head as she hugged her tightly with so much emotions to share to her.

"Can we stay like this for a while?" he requested.

Alyssa didn't say a word nor move. She also likes being held by him, and she likes what's happening at that moment too.

She felt secured.

At the reception area, Alyssa was wearing her cover all painting suit. She braided her long wavy hair with and elastic band while leaving her bangs alone.

On her left hand she was holding her color palettes for the paints and the other one holds the brush.

She gently strokes her brush on the wall to create an illusion of a real object. She wanted to make the image looks alive and realistic. 3D illusion art is her forte.

This is where she can express herself completely.

Words that cannot be told, feelings that can't be expressed, in every stroke of her brush she can say it all as if her hand has a mind of its own. It creates a beautiful artwork.

Behind her, a bunch of people stood in front of her wide wall canvas, watching her stroke her brush in different direction.

At first you won’t be able to identify the image she tried to create, but as she added colors, lines, shapes and everything else, a lovely garden landscape appeared.

From a distance, Zack was watching the woman who captivated her heart with her sweet innocent smile. His eyes were mesmerized with the beauty he simply cannot ignore. As his eyes were stuck on her, his mind wandered- having random thoughts.

He remembered what Aly told him about the reason behind her engagement with Marcus. She said, her family is in great debt.

He thought, if this is all about money, perhaps he can pay for the amount that Aly's family owed. Money was not a big deal to him.

He doesn't care how much it is, all he cared about is to free Aly from this settlement so they can live happily once she choose him over Marcus. He poured a glass of wine as he watched Aly enjoying her work.

Alyssa's mobile rang twice and she picked it up.

"Hello!" she said in a soft manner. "Are you done young lady?" She heard Zack's voice, and she moved her head around the hallway looking for him, when he found his man sitting on the couch not so far away from her.

"Yes, I'm done!" and he smiled at her from a distance.

He has been staying in the lounge area the whole afternoon, drinking coffee, working on his laptop and watching over her.

He must have been hungry, she thought.

"Great! Let's have a late lunch" he invited and she plastered a smile for reading what's on her mind.

Zack stood up right away, grabbed his coat and left his things to his secretary as he walked towards her spot.

"Let's go baby!" and as he came close, he’ll wrap his arm around her when Aly flinched right away to avoid his arm.

"Seriously?" looking at his hands with eyes wide opened. And he hissed the moment he realized his mistake.

He leaned over and whispered - "I'm sorry, I just missed my girl that I want to crash her within my arms" then he laughed.

"This way please" leading her to the elevator door for a lift.

"And where are we going?" She asked him with a confused tone as they entered.

Zack press the 8th floor button and tried to ignore her question. He dialed a number and began talking to the person on the other line. He was ordering food for them.

It was a room service. She assumed.

"Thanks! Then he dropped the call and turned his head to her, smiling.

And they've reached the 8th floor. As soon as the door opened and they stepped out- he yanked her arm and rushing her.

"Hurry! I'm so excited" he mumbled in her ear while their fingers entangled. No one was in the corridor so she allowed him to hold her hand.

They stopped in front of room 850. He quickly looked for the room key inside his pocket without giving up her hand.

He was still holding it and no plan of letting go.

As they entered the room, she came in first and he was behind her closing the door.

As she heard it slammed, she turned to him and he quickly grabbed her shoulders and pinned her back against the wall.

They stared at each other's eyes for a moment, discovering the feelings behind their orbs.

Aly was holding unto his waist, he let go of her shoulder and cupped blushing face.

That very moment - they were just both waiting for the star to land so they can seal their wishes with a kiss.

Nevertheless, they can't wait that long because their lips were too excited to collide.

"I’ve been dying to do this baby the whole time you were away from me."

Then he began kissing her lips passionately. No hesitation to return the kisses back. She just let her lips repay him for the tender kisses he gave her.

He held her neck and strangled her in a sexy manner. He started kissing her deeply and hard. Her limbs became weak but Zack was holding her tight so she can retain her balance.

Zack held her waist and lifted her up to carry her, as she wrapped her legs around his waist and her arms around his neck.

He gave her torrid kisses that it felt so good in her lips, she almost grasped for air. Zack was eager to take her breath away.

They walked to the living room and still he was carrying her on his waist. Surprisingly, Zack threw her on the couch and she found herself under him staring at his sexy lips.

Her heart skipped a beat when he removed his necktie and started to unbutton his top.

His chest muscle showed up and made her throat dry. He buried his face on her neck while kissing it and a soft moan slipped out of her mouth, and he like that sound so much.

His name was uttered in a sexy way that his blood rushed. Driving him crazy “Zack" she groaned.

"Yes baby? Do you want me?" His voice was full of temptation and she couldn't resist it.

“Say my name again baby” He requested and she did- in a very sexy tone “Zack”.

She roared as he explore her whole body with his hand – Every touch has a tingling sensation that her body was enjoying and he wants more of her as much as she wants more of him.

Zack leaned back and remove his top – She trailed her finger on his collarbone down to his chest, and every inch of him was pleasing to her eyes.

Zack put his weight on her and began kissing her all over her body- the sound of her moan, thrills him even better when the doorbell rang.

She came back to her normal self, the shy type. She tried to stop him from devouring her lips but he won't stop though the bell continue to rang...Aly begged

"Zack, stop!" he pushed him away with her hands above his chest.

He stopped and bit his lower lip before saying a word "That was hot, baby" then he smirked. He walked through the door to take his order.

Sighed! Aly felt relieved. She was sweating, feeling hot within despite of the cold temperature in the room. Her face was flushing, she couldn't look into his eyes when he talked to her. She felt ashamed after going wild.

"Come over; let’s eat before the food gets cold." closing the buttons of his top in front of her while waiting for her to come forward. She stood up, and just when she was about to sit on the chair that Zack pulled for her - her phone rang...

She looked at the caller’s name on the screen and found out that it was Marcus who was calling her.

Instead of sitting down she walked away from the table and went to the kitchen area.

Zack was just following her with his eyes. Trying to hear what she was about to say. But Alyssa's voice was so soft that he could hardly hear the word.

"Marcus! “She mumbled.

"Have you had lunch?" he asked her with a sweet tone.

"I'm about to." She replied as she looked at the food on the table.

"I miss you Aly! Why haven't you come to at least say goodbye to me?" His voice was cracked. She can sense that he was drunk.

"Are you drinking? “She asked to validate her gut feeling.

He made a long hissed before answering "It's because of you, it's because you left me! I feel so alone and I am hurt, knowing that you are avoiding me" his tears fell and he burst out suddenly when he can no longer hold onto his sadness.

"Marcus, I'll be back soon. I already told you my reason. Please!” Her voice remained calm as she spoke to Marcus in a patient way, calming him down.

Honestly, deep down inside her she felt guilty. She said she wanted to be left alone so she could think about their upcoming marriage. But here she was being uncontrollably fond of Zack.

After a few minutes on the phone with Marcus, finally she was able to convince him to take a rest and stop drinking.

At first, it was hard because he was consumed with different emotions, but as she spoke to him calmly, and reassured him that there will be no one else but him in her life -he felt secure and agreed to hang up so they can both rest.

"This is all wrong!" she whispered as she dropped the call after Marcus said goodbye to her.

"I am such a liar!" she mocked herself when guilt came to her. As soon as she realized that she have turned herself into a b***h.

She immediately grabbed her bag on the floor where she dropped it a while ago, and walked past Zack who was waiting for him at the dining area. She walked through the door without saying anything.

"Where are you going?" Zack blocked the door as he held Alyssa's hands. "What’s wrong?"

Alyssa just looked at him in the eyes with full of sorrow and regrets. He drew her close to him and hugged her with so much love.

"You have to tell me what's wrong so I can help you Aly. It was Marcus on the phone right? "He wanted to confirm by hearing it from her and she did. She nodded her head while eyes were on the floor.

"So what did he tell you?" He never stopped asking questions trying to figure out what went wrong.

"Did he yelled at you, curse you or..."Alyssa pushed him before he could say another word.

"We can't go on like this Zack!" she shouted as she spilled it out "Will never make it, I'm not leaving Marcus for you!”

She yelled and those words she uttered were too sharp to hurt his feelings instantly. Zack was in deep shocked that he couldn't move his legs to console Aly when she cried helplessly. He was as desperate as Aly at that moment. Both of them collapsed on the floor.
