~: Erix Mordino :~

👑 Victor 👑

Yes, I'm obsessed with her. I'm in love with her. No one has ever heightened such a keen capacity for physical sensation in me. Her smell, the way she tastes, the way she scrunches her nose now and then when she's anxious, the way she plays with her fingers when she's in deep thoughts, the way she walks, the way her entire personality screams of power. Gosh, I'm in love with her entire existence.

And that's the first thought that came to my mind when I saw her after all this time, sitting beside Daniel in the boardroom. Sudden jealousy struck me and burning rage blinded my vision. But what felt disturbing was the way she looked. Cold and mundane, devoid of any colours which hit a pang in my chest. Roberto stepped aside making way for me to get in and that's when she saw me. Eyes with the rarest hue of grey almost turned black. Her honey-coloured skin is draped in black from head to toe, only leaving her palm and fingers bare which are also freshly manicured with red paint, almost the colour of fresh blood. Her lips are red which she's licking deliberately now and then, suppressing the emotions that have risen. And I can't help but realise that my heart skipped a beat when I laid my eyes on her.

Daniel came around and stood in front of me. Tall and powerful, still shorter than me. And as usual cowering under my stern gaze, no matter how tough he portrays himself to be. The staring game started to piss me off and I decided to break the silence ringing in the air. Lillith was just going to say something but I took the lead and introduced myself.
"Erix Mordino." - I pronounced and extended my hand for a shake which Daniel took willingly.
"Daniel de Lucas" He started and turned towards Lillith, "and, this is Ms. Ambrose, my secretary as well as the PR HEAD of this company."
I looked towards her, and couldn't help but smile while extending my hand towards her which she took unwillingly. She gasped when her sweaty palm touched mine and I couldn't help but squeeze it gently. She looked at me, eyes full of questions and I returned the gaze without any emotions. Because did I admit that this little devil over here is too good at reading emotions?

We took our designated places and without wasting any moment, I jumped straight into business. My sudden declaration of joining this company as a partner in its future projects and funding it all took Daniel by surprise. And I wasn't amazed when he said the same. But all I said to him is that with the new medical enhancements, there should be some improvements in hospital equipment which can only be done with upgraded technologies and no company's better than Lucas&so. A little bit of praise and loads of good words can make any businessman swoon. I learnt this from Papa. Though Alexander Lucas' ways have been far more witty and sharp, I stole this from his rule book a long time ago and it did help me a lot.

As everything got settled and its hours finally decided that the contract would be signed in the next 48, I stood up to take my leave. Lillith had been eerily silent throughout the meeting. And the moment I stepped into the elevator, she came in and joined me. She looked me in the eyes and all I could see in them was pain. She hugged me tightly, her scent engaging me.
"I thought something happened to you, that you'll never come back. But I knew, you'll come back to me." - She cried and looked at me. And that was it. I couldn't do this anymore. I held her nape and yanked her to me, dipping my lips into hers, melting in that heat. My fingers roamed all over her body, finding those puckered nipples which I pinched and the way she moaned went straight to my cock.

The elevator dinged and I gave her a final kiss and was going to step out when her hands reached mine. I turned around and saw her looking at me intently.
"I didn't come back for you Princess. I came back to take what's mine." - I admitted and left her in a frenzy of questions.

🖤 Lillith 🖤

Victor's admittance left me in a dilemma. What happened to him, what was he intending, I couldn't make out any of it. Though Daniel insisted on dropping me back home, I still forced him not to accompany me back home. I walked down the alley in my thoughts when something hard hit my head and darkness engulfed me.

My eyes opened and I found myself in a room brightly lit. It's aesthetically pleasant. Vintage designs and artistic images adorned the high walls giving it a Victorian vibe. I was looking around when reality hit me. Just the mere thought of it made me shiver. Only one person in this entire world knows exactly what I love and find pleasant. The exact person I fled from two years back and still hiding or was hiding, to be honest. I was looking around going towards the only window in that room which held the panoramic view when the door behind me unlocked and someone came in. I don't have to look behind to know who that person is because his presence in this room screams only power and authority.

"Welcome home, Mia Cara." [welcome home, my love]
I sighed and turned around.

"Hello, Husband!!"
