Someone Unexpected(17)

We talked for a little bit longer and she took a few notes and I gave  her my clothing size and my shoe size and we were able to wrap up the  meeting in about an hour. She told me that I would have clothes  delivered the following day and to pick out what I wanted and put aside  what I did not want and it would all be taken care of for me. I did have  a girly side so I had to admit that I was excited about getting new  shoes and clothes the next day. The last time I went shopping was a  couple of months before and I think I bought one dress and that's it.



It was a little bit after 10 o'clock and I was totally exhausted so I  got ready for bed, climbed under the covers and thought about the  whirlwind day I had just had. My mind drifted to Sebastian's soft touch  as he unzipped my dress and I couldn't wait to feel his touch again. I  turned on my side in frustration, annoyed that the most gorgeous man I  had ever met, who I could not stop thinking about was my boss. My mind  was screaming that there was no way it could ever work between us, but  my body was ignoring my mind.         

     



 



Just as I began to drift off I heard a light tapping at the door  adjoining our rooms. My eyes flew open in the dark as my chest began to  rise and fall with anticipation. I slowly got out of bed and walked  toward the door, my dark waves spilling down my back, and my heart  thumping against my chest. I heard another light tapping on the door and  when I opened it Sebastian stood there, with one arm above his head  gently grasping the door frame, his head resting against his arm. His  bare, chiseled chest was screaming to be caressed and he looked sexy as  hell as he stood there, eyes filled with lust wearing pajama bottoms,  his hair tousled all over his head, literally taking my breath away.



I became painfully aware of my nipples that were hardened underneath the  thin fabric of my nightie as my body responded to the sight of him.  Sebastian's eyes moved down to my chest and lingered there for a minute  before raising them to mine.



"May I come in?" His deep voice was laced with lust.



My head was screaming no but my body said yes, and without hesitation I  stepped aside so that he could come into my room. I closed the door  behind him and before I could turn around he had me pressed against the  wall, my hands supporting me. I could feel his warm breath against my  ear as he stood behind me, very close but not touching me. His fingers  left a trail of fire on my neck as he brushed my hair behind my shoulder  and followed the length of my hair down my back with his fingers. His  gentle caress weakened my knees and I was grateful to have the wall to  hold me up. His hand trailed back up my arm causing my skin to tingle  under his touch and I leaned back against him and felt a gentle  throbbing between my legs and I didn't want him to stop touching me. His  arms wrapped around my waist and pulled me back into him as his lips  trailed tiny soft kisses along my neck.



"You are so beautiful Elena." His voice was filled with lust as his grip  tightened around my waist. I could feel his arousal pressed against my  backside as he let out a soft groan. He turned me around to face him,  pressing me into the wall, and his eyes devoured mine. His hard length  was pressed against me and he gently entwined his hands in my hair and  slowly leaned down to me. Everything I had been telling myself about  keeping our relationship professional flew out the window in that  moment. His lips melded to mine as his mouth hungrily devoured mine. His  tongue slid over mine in a slow, sensual way and I literally felt weak  in my knees. I wrapped my arms around his neck pulling him closer to me,  reveling in his delicious kiss. This is what a good kiss is supposed to  be like. This is how it's done.



His hands slowly moved down the sides of my body feeling the curve of my  waist and then moved around to my butt and gave it a good squeeze. I  raked my fingers through his hair as our tongues tasted and probed each  other. My core was throbbing and all I could think was that I wanted my  clothes to fall off of me so that I could feel him inside of me. Nothing  else mattered to me in that moment. He was my boss but I didn't care,  people would talk but I didn't care, and he was arrogant but I didn't  care. All I wanted was him and I had never felt that way before, I had  never been so mesmerized by a man in my life. Whatever Sebastian wanted  me to do I was ready to do it and I didn't feel bad about it. I finally  admitted to myself that I wanted him since the first night I met him.



A soft moan escaped my lips as his hands slipped over my breasts and  tweaked my nipples through the nightie. I pressed my hips into his  hoping he knew that I was giving him permission to keep going but he  suddenly broke away from me leaving me panting in the moonlight  streaming through my window.



"I'm sorry Elena, I didn't mean for this to happen yet but you looked so  sexy in that nightgown that I couldn't resist you. I just wanted to say  goodnight and I took it too far." He ran his hands through his hair in  frustration as he looked at the floor and then he raised his piercing  dark eyes to mine. "You drive me crazy and even though I want to, it's  not time for us to be together yet." He leaned down and kissed me on the  cheek.



"Get some sleep, we have a big day tomorrow." With that, he went back to his room closing the door behind him.         

     



 



I stood there still wanting him, wanting to feel his hands on my body,  hoping he would come back. When it finally hit me that he was gone for  the night I slipped back into bed, thoughts of Sebastian flooding my  mind. He kissed me and it was good. I was on cloud nine as I drifted off  to sleep.



I must have slept like a log because the next morning I woke up  completely refreshed and ready to get to work. I smiled to myself as I  got ready and butterflies danced in my belly when I thought about  Sebastian coming to my room the night before.



We all met in the lobby at 8:30 and I expected Sebastian to give me a  look, a wink, or something to show me that he acknowledged that the kiss  the night before had happened. But I got nothing. In fact, he barely  looked my way and I tried really hard not to let it bother me, but it  did. He could have at least said good morning to me. I pushed that out  of my mind and decided to just focus on all of the work that lay ahead  of me that day. If he was going to ignore me, two could play at that  game.



We were escorted to the conference room on the 3rd floor and I quickly  set up my things and then walked over to Sophia who was flirting with  Sebastian. He hadn't even so much as looked at me and now I had to deal  with her fawning all over him. The whole thing was pissing me off and  the more I thought about it, the more I started to think that he just  liked having lots of options.



Sebastian Blu had probably always gotten every woman he had ever wanted  and maybe he thought I would be another notch on his belt. I couldn't  let that happen, the last thing I needed was to be used and then dumped  by a guy, especially him since he was my boss. I had to admit that I'd  had a few moments of weakness with, but I was just going to have to  ignore those feelings and stick with my original plan. My own boutique  hotel was my first priority and I didn't want to burn any bridges at Blu  Sierra along the way. I'd already done a ton of research and my  boutique hotel would not be direct competition for Blu Sierra because  they did not have any boutique hotels in Miami nor did they have plans  to build a boutique hotel.



When Sheldon Blu started in the hotel business his vision was to have  opulent, enormous hotels in big cities and boutique hotels in small  towns all over the world. I was relieved that I wouldn't have to compete  with them one day because I would probably lose. Anyway, I stood in  front of Sophia and loudly cleared my throat. I gave Sebastian a cold  glance and then my gaze shifted to Sophia who was sitting practically  glued to Sebastian.



"Are you ready to get started?" My voice was firm and I wanted her to  know that I was not going to be intimidated by her or her threats.



Sebastian seemed surprised at the tone of my voice but I didn't care  because he didn't know what she'd said to me the night before. Sophia  narrowed her eyes at me and then turned to Sebastian with a bright  smile.



"I told Elena we should get started right away this morning so I better go help her."



She said no such thing but I didn't want to argue over such a small  point. I didn't want Sebastian to think I was petty so I let her have  that little dig but I wasn't going to let that be a habit.



Sophia and I brainstormed all morning and I was pleasantly surprised to  find that she knew what she was talking about. I couldn't stand her as a  person but I couldn't help but respect her as a businesswoman because  she was so smart. I think that she appreciated that I had ideas to share  also and I hoped that she recognized that I wasn't just a pretty face.  We worked really well together and by lunchtime I was ready for a break.
