Chapter 99 - Where We Left... (1/2)

Adam and Stella arrived at the mansion after midnight. Adam carried her upstairs princess style.

Stella had her arms wrapped around his neck as her face was resting in the crook of his neck. She had her eyes closed peacefully. Her mind drifted back to what had happened at the party. Her body shook in fear as she thought about what might have happened if Lillian wasn't there with her.

Adam felt her body tremble in his arms and tightened her grip around her body.

”You alright sweetheart?” He asked her, his voice laced with worry. He didn't hear her reply but felt her nodding her head against his neck. He heaved a sigh of relief as he stepped into his room with her in his arms.

Since he had returned from his trip, the couple have been sleeping together in his room. Though Stella was adamant not to give in to his request, he had his own ways to make her say yes. He wanted to move her belongings and stuff to his room as well but decided against it. He knew his precious will go crazy if he even proposed the idea of doing that.

After entering in his room, he made her sit on the bed as he went down on his knees to help her remove her stilettos.

”Adam, I can do that on my own.” Stella tried to retract her foot which he was holding in his hands but his firm grip didn't let her.

”Shhh!” His fingers worked swiftly on the straps of her stiletto. Stella did not have any other choice, so she just decided to sit back and enjoy being pampered by her boyfriend.

She gazed at his handsome profile, her eyes memorizing every single detail. 'How could someone be so perfect?' She was too lost in her thoughts to realize that he had already removed both of her heels and was looking back at her.

”I know that I am handsome and all, but you don't have to stare at me as if you are going to eat me.” Adam's remark brought her back to the present, a crimson shade tinting her cheeks on being caught.

”What's with that face now babygirl? You could stare at me as long as you want to. I am all yours.” Adam spoke up. He was holding her chin in between his fingers, tilting it up so that he could look into her eyes. When Stella finally managed to look up, she was shocker by the sight.

Her eyes met his deep gray ones, which look a bit darker than usual. She could feel the desire he held in them for her.

Adam stood up and leaned his head towards her.

”Do you know how badly I have been wanting to kiss you? Do you know how gorgeous you are looking? So much that I just want to peel this dress off you. I have been trying to control myself all night long, but I don't think that I can do it anymore.” He murmured in a husky voice, sending shivers down her spine.

Stella gasped as she saw his lips hovering above hers. She saw his lips closing in and closed her eyes. She was waiting for his lips to claim hers, but….

'RINGGG!'

Adam's phone started to ring and it was a tune that he had set specially for Blake.

Stella opened her eyes with a jolt. She was Adam's lips turning into a scowl as he reluctantly stepped back.

”You should go and freshen up sweetheart.” He spoke up. Stella nodded and stood up from the bed, making her way to the bathroom.
