Big step

★★★★

They kissed longer than ever. Their passion had caught fire, melting their heart, fulfilling their hunger. Both nibble each other's lips and enjoy each other's scent. It made them feel complete.

Alexander grabbed the back of her head and thrust his tongue, to which Bella whimpered in pleasure. Sweat and bliss arouse them even more. They became two fiery volcanoes that were on the verge of erupting. Their tongue intertwined with each other and the kiss deepened. Alexander sucked on her tongue until she went numb. She wouldn't lie, she strived even more.

After a few minutes, Isabella felt short of breath, and her face turned red. Now it was unbearable for her to hold on to the kiss anymore, and she pushed him to breathe.

"I... I.." Isabella huffed and leaned on his chest. She was weak. Her body had no strength, it was like melting Liquorice.

Alexander held her close, placing his head over hers. He hid his dark red devil's eye.

After a bit of a pause, Alexander stepped back from her and went to the window.

Isabella sighed and grabbed the edge of the table where she was sitting. Both of them came back to reality and everything turned normal.

Isabella could clearly imagine what she did. She didn't think about his wish but did what her heart wanted. Although She didn't feel like he was reluctant the whole time, still, she should have asked or thought about his feelings.

"Hey, listen. Don't be angry. I didn't know why I did this. It was what I wanted," Isabella said with a red face. His broad back confused her. She couldn't guess whether he was angry or okay.

She didn't get a reply, so she continued again, "Can we make a contract for one month? After one month, we will be on our way and I won't bother you, just as you said, I promise. There will be no love or anything and I'm fine with it," Isabella finished her words and waited for a response, nervously.

Alexander released A breath and turned around to the woman who was still sitting at his desk in her bra and lowers.

"Why do you want to sign the contract?" He asked, folding his hand over his chest.

"I... I don't know. It's just you and your jerk contract imprint on me. I can stop thinking about that. I need a few answers about whether I have feelings for you," Isabella idly answered.

"I don't want trouble. If you have feelings, then I am not the person you should cling to," Said Alexander with a straight face. His side was clear. The only reason why he told her was that he didn't want to hurt her. She wasn't like those women he had been with.

He did think of her as his pet many times, but her innocent face changed his mood every time.

"I didn't say I have feelings. I said assuming. And in that contract, you can specifically write it down of me going away from you after 1 month if you don't believe my words. I won't pester you after that. All I want is to enjoy being a couple with you and find the answer to my problems," Isabella answered and looked down. It was hard to express things when you were afraid of getting hurt.

"Alright, my driver will come to your house in the morning to pick you up. You'll stay with me for 1 month and within a couple of days you will get the contract, but there is no turning back. Remember. Neither I will give you another chance. I can give you time, money; every luxurious thing but not love, which I never learned to do," said Alexander with a calm face.

His words warned Bella before she agrees to plunge herself into this destruction.

"I'm not after your money. Don't worry and you don't have to give me any presents," said Isabella with a small smile. She knew why he had told her. It was the reality, the women he was with previously used his money or entered into some kind of contract that involved money.

"Alright. There is another thing. I will talk about it when you come to my house," Alexander said and walked up to her. Bending down a little, he picked her jersey on the ground. That's when Isabella snapped back in reality and saw herself half naked.

"Ah.." with a low scream, she covered her chest area by folding her hands in front of it while her blood sped up on her face again, turning her cooked shrimp.

Alexander handed her the top part and stood with his hand in the pocket, eyes on the flustered woman. He was bewildered when she took off her top. However, he found that he liked her flustered and shy nature more.

"Thank you. I am leaving," said Bella and was about to jump off the table. Suddenly, Alexander cupped her thigh and pushed her a little.

Bella's baffled mouth asked, "What?" It was as if heat just touch her bare thigh when she was off guard.

Alexander didn't answer her while he went down on his knees and grabbed her feet.

"No, that's fine. You don't have to look at it," denied Bella. She didn't want him to touch her feet. It looked bad, but nothing go through the man's ear. He gently pulled her shoes from her feet and saw the injury that had been treated already.

"See. I told ya. It's just a minor injury. Don't worry," Isabella said with an awkward smile. She made the whole situation awkward with the hesitation of his touching her feet.

"Do you feel pain?" Alexander asked. His purple eyes were soft and had a beautiful gentleness. Isabella was dumbfounded at how fast his face and eyes changed their emotion. Everything about him was uncertain as if he was a foreign being. No one could ever say that they were correct about him.

"A little," answered Bella, pursing her lips sheepishly.

"You shouldn't have walked. Now go to the fields, awards will be given there. After that, go to your home and talk to your family," said Alexander and exhaled on her leg, which seemed normal but wasn't.

Bella nodded her head and got down, then walked to the door. Her hand held the door open when she heard him.

"Congratulation on the victory."

Bella smiled and thanked him. She left with a light and happy heart.
