Mr CEO’s Little Bride

First kiss

Ruby’s Pov;

I woke up with a heavy migraine, which hit me hard as soon as I opened my eyes.

I struggled to open my eyes and sit up straight and suddenly, my eyes ran into his.

Those blue dazzling eyes were setting my skin ablaze.

His face was cold as ice and his gaze didn’t leave my body. It traced and followed every movement I made.

He suddenly stretched out his hand to mine and pulled me up gently.

He came closer and placed a pillow at my back in support.

” Hey!” he sat back and said.

I fiddled with my fingers, staring down at them.

He used his fingers to lift up my chin and stared into my eyes.

” How are you feeling?” he asked calmly.

I couldn’t tell what time of the day it was.

To be honest, I was still feeling weak and dizzy… maybe I didn’t sleep enough.

The door creaked open and a maid walked in.

I looked around to see I was in my room at the mansion.

A disappointed look appeared on my face as I was expecting him to take me to the penthouse.

She dropped a tray on the bed and left immediately.

Nathan uncovered it, revealing fries and noodles.

” Here, have a bite,” he said, bringing the fork closer to my mouth.

I opened up and took it in, then started chewing.

It was delicious but I had no appetite.

I knew he wouldn’t bulge if I told him I wasn’t hungry, so I had no choice but to eat.

” What took you so long in the restroom during that party?” he asked out of the blues, making me bat my eyelids.

” Uhm… it was difficult locating the restroom at first, I had to ask for directions” I said simply, not looking at him.

I saw him nod and drop the plate.

” Know any Cindy?” he asked, making me almost choke on the water I was drinking.

What does he know?!!.

” I met one who happens to be your friend,” I replied, unsure of why he was asking.

It was making me so uneasy and I had to relax a bit, not to look nervous or uncomfortable.

He looked at me and I looked away.

The atmosphere around us was very cold, despite the hot sun outside. The AC was on but it wasn’t usually this cold.

” Hey!” he cooed and I took my eyes to him.

” Are you sure you’re okay? Don’t you feel any pain?” he asked with a worried look on his face.

” I should be asking you that? Are you okay? What about the kidnappers? What happened to them?” I asked him. I had been curious for a while now.

” That’s nothing for you to worry about” he told me off curtly.

” What about my Dad and…”

” You don’t have to worry about them also.. I made sure no words will get to them, so put your mind to rest” he told me.

I nodded and attempted to lay down again.

He helped me do that comfortably.

” Are you sure you’re okay? Won’t you see the doctor?” he asked and I shook my head.

He sighed.Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

” I should have taken you there first,” he told me.

I smiled and shut my eyes for a while.

He held my palm in his and started squeezing it gently.

I could feel the warmth coming from his body.

I can’t even stare at him properly now after waiting for him all this says to return.

He’s finally here but I’m not in the right frame of mind.

I was weak but I knew I wanted to be with him at that moment.

I didn’t want him to leave me. I feared that.

” Don’t!” I exclaimed, opening my eyes.

I held his hand instead, preventing him from leaving.

” Okay!” he said with a light chuckle and my face flushed.

He squeezed my palm even more in an attempt to send me back to sleep.

” I’m here okay. I won’t leave, ” he said calmly.

I smiled and closed my eyes.

I was almost drifting off to sleep when I felt a soft lip on mine.

My eyes flickered open immediately, and I paused, staring dreamingly into his eyes.

He smiled at me and I felt my heart leap up for joy.

The emotions I was suddenly feeling were strange to me.

” Do I have permission?” I heard him whisper into my ear.

His breath fanned my neck as a result of how close he was.

It sent a cold wave through my body and the sleep vanished from my eyes.

I wasn’t exactly sure what he was referring to, but before I could wrap my head around it or ask him what he meant, he claimed my lips in a soft kiss.

A wave of emotions surged through me.

He sucked the lower part at first, making me short of breath.

I struggled to breath and while I was still struggling to, he started devouring and savouring the flavour of my lips.

Oh, goodness!! My first kiss!!.

I can’t believe this. I can’t even imagine it. The cells in my brains were doing all kinds of amazing and superb dancing.

It felt so unreal.

The kiss turned passionate and I wanted to return it… to kiss him with the same vigour, but hell, it’s my first kiss and I’m a novice.

He placed his hand on my waist and used the other to hold my head in support.

I wrapped my hands around his neck and he slowly climbed into the bed and came on top.

The kiss turned more passionate by the second and I was finding it hard to breathe as the second went by.

He suddenly took his left hand to my thigh and the tingling sensation I felt was heavenly.

He broke off the kiss then and looking at me straight in the eyes, he asked.

” Should I continue?” he asked almost breathlessly.

I nodded, a hot burning sensation was in my throat and my head was clouded with thoughts of him and his sudden touch.
