9 A Fiction Romantic-Thriller (1/1)

I opened the fridge to hunt for something to cook and at the same time to cool my burning face. I'm still thinking about my erotic dream that what Ino said made me think of something else about my first time and finding it hard to adjust. I was a virgin and it was difficult to adjust at first. But after multiple tries, it had been so much easier and better and more delicious. But then again, it was just a dream. Who knew how real sex would feel.

I took the necessary ingredients to make omelet, toast some bread and plated sliced apples. Since Mr. Lombardi already had the coffee brewing, I went to get my own glass of orange juice since I don't drink anything with caffeine. I was aware that Ino's gaze was on me the whole time I puttered around the kitchen but I tried my best to ignore him. Though my knees were sure trembling and my pussy became impossibly wet and throbbing with arousal.

Ino groaned and inhaled deeply. I jerked my head up while plating the omelet to look at him. He had his eyes closed as if concentrating on something, a tic on his jaw was visible and tension around his body was obviously straining his shoulders.

”Sir? Ino?” I called out before he opened his eyes to look at me. ”Are you alright?”

”Why wont I, Stella?” He moaned before he licked his lips which made me look away to hide my burning face.

Shit! Why did I suddenly feel like he was daydreaming about me in a sexual way. Because he had the look to go with it. His eyes roamed around me and settled on my chest after he opened his eyes. That's why I had to look away. It's ridiculous how his open staring embarrassed me when he should be the one feeling ashamed of such rude behavior.

”Breakfast is ready.” I finally announced.

”Join me, Stella.” Ino breathed out while his eyes still ran the lengths of my body.

”Ok.” I swallowed before pulling a chair to sit. ”Uh... Is it alright if I spend the day in your library? I found it yesterday while making a tour around. I loved it there. If you need anything, I'll be there for sure.”

He frowned and gave me a weary look before he nodded. ”No, it's fine. You may as well own it.” Ino narrowed his eyes when I gasped and smiled at the same time. ”I've read all the books there and it's kind of a waste that they've been neglected for so long. You read to your heart's content. I'm glad we have something in common.”

”Wow.” I snapped my mouth closed after they dropped to the floor with astonishment. ”You read them all? As in every book there is in that room?”

”Yeah.” Ino shrugged before taking a bite of his toast and stared at me. ”Tell me what book you first pick and we'll discuss about it.”

I blushed and smiled up at him. His indulgent mood dimmed before it eventually turned into a frown. He bowed his head and resumed eating. It seemed that smiling was the only way for him to stop ogling at my body. I wondered what's wrong with my smile?

Ino, after finishing up his plate of food, politely told me he'd be upstairs again for work. I nodded and finished my own breakfast while silently musing. I wondered what kind of work he's doing without going out of the house? Maybe he's a writer? Could a writer have this huge property at a very young age? Maybe he's a hacker? Heard some of them could work homebased and could smash huge money at the end of the day. But Ino didn't give off a nerdy vibe.

I stopped brainstorming about the mystery of my employer and cleaned up the table before going towards the library with excited hop. I still find it difficult to believe that all these books have been read by Ino. There's just so many of them that a lifetime wouldn't be enough to finish it. Maybe he was just trying to pull my leg and shit, I bought it. He must be laughing at me now.

I grabbed a random book, didn't really matter to me what genre it was because I ate almost all the pages right away when I hold one. I actually liked what I picked. It was a fiction-romance-thriller in the medieval ages. Almost immediately, I was submerged into the story and totally forgotten about the time and place I was in.

”Are you sure this is a safe place?” Ivano asked in both worry and excitement.

”I am.” I answered before he twirled me around to claim my mouth to his.
