Chapter two hundred and fifty one
Xander played with her hair and contained kissing her. Anna didn't hild back at all this time. She gave him the access to explore every inch of her mouth. His kisses left Anna breathless once again and she pulled away to catch her breath.
"Can we do more than kissing, girlfriend?" Xander asked, pulling Anna by her hand and Anna nodded her head in the affirmative.
"But-" Anna looked down shyly and Xander raised his brow in question, demanding that she continued with her objection.
"But what, Anna?" He asked, holding her chin and pulling it up, encouraging her to look into his eyes.
"But we can't go all the way," Anna folded her lips sheepishly and Xander smiled, knowing what she meant by that.
"I already gave you my word, Anna. J won't do anything you wouldn't want me to do with you and I'm not about to go back on my word. Besides, if you don't want it here, we could go somewhere else- somewhere that would make you more comfortable. We could go to my house, a hotel, anywhere you want to go. It's alright with me, Anna. All that matters is that I'm with you. So, is it alright here?" Xander asked gentlemanly and Anna almost cried because of his sweetness.
Xander had changed from the mean, cruel billionaire she knew. He was considerate now. His kindness melted her soft heart, turning it into a melted ice-cream.
"Why are you crying, Anna?" Xander asked and Anna tried to wipe her tears. She had no idea that she was already crying. She was so used to crying now. Every single sweet action of his affected her. It made her cry with a joyful heart.
"I don't want you to ever go back to being mean. You're so sweet that it's making me want to cry. I can't believe that this is the Alexander Williams I met a couple of months back. You've changed so much that it makes me cry. I don't ever want to lose this version of you. This version of you makes me so happy." Anna confessed and Xander found himself smiling at her.
"I'll do anything to remain like this, Anna. It's the Anna-effect. As long as you are with me, there will never be any reason for me to go back to being the unfeeling Alexander. You changed my world completely, Anna, and I'll be forever grateful to you for that. I love you, Anna," Xander said, kissing her tenderly this time.
Anna could never get tired of hearing Xander say those three words that she had dreamed of hearing from his lips. She loved those words on his lips.
"Can you- can you say that again, Xander?" Anna asked shyly. She wanted to hear him say that he was in love with her.
"What? I said a lot of things, Anna."
"The three magic words, Xander," she explained.
"I. LOVE. YOU?" Xander asked, to be sure of what she meant.
"Anna Hosuton, my permanent girlfriend, I love you. I love you so much, and I wouldn't stop loving you," Xander said amidst grins and fresh tears trickled down Anna's cheeks. She wasn't prepared for this at all. She never wanted this moment to end. She wanted it to be till forever- the most when Xander was being so sweet to her, like she was the best thing In the entire planet- Anna loved it so much.
Xander kissed her tears away and Anna let him do it. In fact, she enjoyed it.
"Is thus how beautiful it is to be in a relationship? I love it so much, Xander."
It was then than Xander remembered that she had never been in a relationship. This was her first. He loved it so much. He had a lot of things to teach her and knowing Anna, he knew that she would be willing to learn. He would love to be her first everything.
"Thag's right, I'm your first, Anna. Being your first makes me happy. I love it so much. You know what, I plan on teaching you a whole lot of things, Anna. So, you have to be prepared." Xander winked at her and Anna gulped down her saliva in fear. She knew that whatever Xander was talking about was something sensual. Her palms heated and she suddenly ch heat rush to her cheeks which became flushed immediately.
"Do you know why I was so drawn to you, Anna?" Xander asked, and Anna shook her head in reply.
"It's because you are so real and innocent. You don't know how to hide your emotions. You're the first woman I'll ever be with who is so innocent. All my past girlfriends are very experienced." Xander said with a sexy smile.
"Is being inexperienced a bad thing?" Anna found herself asking.
"Of course not, Anna. On the contrary. I love you like that. It's one of the reasons why I fell in love with you, Anna. I love your innocence," Xander said, caressing her left cheek and Anna flushed even harder.
"Do you see what I'm saying?" He said, grinning.
"So, what do you want? Shall we do more than kissing here? I have an inner room here in the office. Or would you rather we go somewhere else?" Xander asked and Anna went silent for a while.
"I think we should go somewhere else," Anna said shyly and Xander grinned again, looking intensely at Anna.
"Where do you want to go?" Xander asked, and Anna went silent again. Xander chose to give suggestions, knowing that Anna might be too why to admit what she wanted.
"A hotel? My house?" Xander asked and Anna gulped again.
"The former."
"Alright, my house it is," Xander said smiling and he helped her down from his desk, grabbing his keys. He placed one strong hand on her slender waist and Anna tensed up a little.
