Just Between Us

Lillian's pov

"We need to talk," I started.

But it was hardly before I could finish that sentence, Stefani locked the door behind her and rolled up her sleeves as she walked towards me slowly.

"No.. we don't," she softly spoke as she closed the blinds and started striding towards me.

"This is about the small mishap between you and Kent in front of the guests," I did my best to be firm in my voice but I was clearly trembling when she backed me against the desk...

"You smell so sweet," her whispers tickled my skin when she spoke.

"S-stay on topic," I swallowed.

"And not bask in your essence?" I could feel the smirk as I looked up into the ceiling with begging eyes.

"S-Stefani?" I was so close to giving in. I could smell the wine in her breath and expensive perfume from her...

I know if I tell her she's intoxicating to me right now, there's absolutely no going back... and that a part of me wouldn't want to go back.

"Mmmmmm," she hummed a mischievous giggle as she leans up to take a good look at me and what I'm wearing for the rehearsal dinner.

"Oh darling, I know I'm staying on target," her eyes glowed as she gazed down into mine and I could feel my lips part away...

...it's taking hell on earth to be cordial with her; just having her this close to me as no one's watching is nerve wracking.

"You know we can't do anything risky," I mumbled and could feel my cheeks getting hot as the room seemed to get smaller and smaller with her in my sights.

"I'd never attempt such a thing," her eyes danced playfully as she had tha goddamn smirk on her face that soon became a cheeky grin when she noticed how flustered I got..

"I'm being serious," I found myself pouting and she play pouts as well.

Why the hell is she so damn devious but cute at the same time???

"Awww mommy I didn't mean to be difficult. How can I make it better?" She puckered her lips in a sarcastic tone but she broke out into a laugh after seeing how I red in the face I got.

Ugh, Stefani.

Before I could even react, she ropes her arm around my waist and pulls me in closer where our arms were practically tangled around each other's waist and the small laugh from her lips tickled my neck ever so lightly.

"You're adorable," she gently kissed my neck and kissed my cheek as she takes a step back to give us some space to talk one on one.

... as if I wasn't just about to say to hell with it...

"Stefani," I said.

One of us has to be composed, it's clearly not her and I'm barely managing.

"I'll bite..." she straightens up.

"I may have gone overkill but when have I not? No more slip ups," she got straight to the point as she spoke normally but her green eyes still glowed patiently taking every inch of me from head to toe.

I'm still too caught up in her to even reply..

"Is there anything else that needs to be touched based on or are we really just going to-

I couldn't help it.

I just wanted to feel her- be consumed more rather.

She didn't even flinch or hesitate at the gesture; she immediately reciprocated and cusped my face with both hands to deepen the kiss.

I feel my lower back touch the desk again as Stefani takes the initiative to completely stand over me. Before I could lift my hands to feel more of her, she pins both of my hands down onto the desk and I got what I've been wishing from the start- at least a taste of being consumed.

I softly gasped when she nipped the bottom of my lip.

"I told you I'd bite," I could still feel her smile as her lips left me star struck.

Before I could even think of anything to say, Stefani unlocks the door to the head chef's office after quickly tidying herself up.

Roaring chatter brought me back into reality remembering we were at a rehearsal dinner and that I'm the soon to be bride of a man who's daughter...

I'm madly in love with..
