XXX: Cherry Lips!

(This chapter is for all my lovely readers , thank you for being in this journey of Athena and Zephyr.)

Athena

I stepped outside my room to go to the living room; I heard a creaking sound of the door opening, My eyes wandered towards the sound and I noticed a slightly agape oak door at the end of the hallway. Curiously I went near it and slowly pushed it. It was a study room-cum-library.

There was a fireplace at the corner with an ottoman, a tall bookshelf lined with many books then there a mahogany table at the other end. But what caught my eyes was the floor to ceiling glass wall which gave me a panoramic view of the snowy forest, and the blue sky tinted with blush pink and orange as the sun was setting.

"Wow!" I gasped in awe, my feet moving towards the glass wall.

"Beautiful isn't it?"

I jumped in fright when I heard a deep voice, placing a hand on my chest I turned and saw Mr.King leaning against the door gazing at the scenery outside "You scared me." I scolded him, narrowing my eyes. I almost had a heart attack because of this idiot.

"Didn't mean to." He shrugged as he walked over to me. My insides fluttered as the previous incident came to mind. The thought of his soft lips on mine, how would it actually feel?

I mentally shook my head, trying to withdraw such sinful thoughts.

"How old is this place?" I swiftly asked as my eyes wandered around the room. From my peripheral, I noticed him walking towards the rail before leaving on it, staring at the trees with a dazed look.

"I used to come here as a child with my parents." his voice was thick with emotions.

"That's sweet, where are they now?" I smiled at him, leaning against the railing. I love going out with my family, it's fun but dad rarely got time to spend with us. I don't understand why he has to work so hard and don't have quality time to spend with his family when he's making money for his family.

"Somewhere away from me." I blinked as I glanced at him, he sounded upset. A part of me wanted to hug him and say it's alright I'm here but it might be weird if I did that. I'm just his PA, right?

Suddenly the cold wind blew making me shudder.

"Get back in it's getting chilly." He spoke gazing at me with a blank look.

"Okay!" I want to ask more but I refrain as I think I touched a sensitive topic even last time he avoided it.

I sighed in relief as we walked back inside the warm room. I heard the clicking of the door behind me. When I turned around, I noticed him looking far away with a dazed look. "If you want to share something, I'm always here to listen." I awkwardly suggested, biting my lower lip as his eyes snapped to mine.

His eyes wandered to my lip for a microsecond before meeting mine, his emerald eyes were dark and swirling with emotions I couldn't point out. I felt my insides twisting and turning at our eye contact, my heart suddenly started racing as I noticed him coming closer.

"What if I don't want you to listen and just feel it?" he whispered as he leaned closer, his minty breath fanning my face, I had to crane my head up to look at him. My eyebrows raised in confusion as I didn't get what he said, I parted my lips to ask but he did something else that I've never thought he'd do.

I let out a squeak when he slammed me against the wall before capturing my lips in his warm one, I froze in shock by this kiss. His lips moved around mine in a soft yet overpowering way, soon my lips moved around his and My hands found their way towards his neck pulling him closer.
