His Lovely Obsession (English)

Chapter 31

Nick is consumed by his need to taste Stacey's mouth again. All the hours and days of waiting to

possess her luscious lips again has taken its toll. His tongue hungrily attacked her sweet mouth.

Stacey feels like she is being sucked into something gratifying. The movement of Nick's lips is

unexpectedly very pleasurable. She isn't even aware that she is moaning. Her hands are gripping his

biceps.

Stacey's moans fueled Nick's craving to repeatedly make love to her. His right hand is now on her neck

as he holds her head in position for their wild kiss. He is running his other hand on her back to mold her

body to his. He badly wants their body to become one.He tore his lips from hers to kiss the side of her

neck.

"Honey...." he groaned.

Stacey's back stiffened when she heard what he called her. With a lot of force, she pushed him from

her.

GOSH! I almost have forgotten about Derick! She thought.

Nick was taken aback which was the reason why Stacey was able to push him. With eyes like half slits,

he ran them on her. He swallowed . She looks so sensuous with her lips almost bare of lipstick and

they are slightly swollen from his kiss. Her eyes are steely and before he can react, she slapped his left

cheek.

"If you ever do that again, I will quit! I no longer care what you'll do with the magazines! Sell them if you

want or give them away! The hell I care! I don't want to work for a pervert like you!" she angrily said

before storming out of his office.

"FUCKING HELL!" Nick grabbed some of his hair in vexation.

He didn't mean to call her honey. It was a slip of the tongue. He should really be more careful. His

desire for her is making him loose his equilibrium. He seems to be in his puberty age. His libido is like a

teenager's.

"DAMN IT!!" he angrily rubbed his face with his right hand.

(Stacey)

She is grateful for small mercies. Cherry is not at her table when she came out of Nick's private office.

She doesn't want her to see the state she is in. She looks flushed from the kiss. She is quite sure that

the sides of her lips are smeared with lipstick .She quickly grabbed her bag which is on the secretary's

table. She has to retouch her make-up.

She rested her back on the door of the cubicle after closing it. Her knees feel weak.

She slapped Nick Alcantara.

Deep inside her, she worries about the consequences of what she just did.

But she doesn't want to be his employee right? It would be to her advantage if he will fire her.

She massaged her temples when she thought about the magazines. Out of anger, she said that he can

do what he wants with them.

"That was the most stupid thing to say!! " she uttered angrily.

She closed her eyes then touched her lips. They feel so sensitive. She can still taste him.

NO! she scolded herself .

She opened her eyes as she quickly tried to erase her thoughts. She bit the inside of her bottom lip

because she remembered Derick. She promised him that she won't go out with other men but what

happened is worse. She was kissed by another man!

He took me by surprise! She defended herself.

But didn't you enjoy it? A part of her brain asked.

She feels guilty. She will call Derick. She could erase her guilty feeling if she will talk to him. She will let

him know how she misses him. She took her phone and dialed his number.

(Nick)

He is on his swivel chair just staring at the wall when he heard his ring tone.He picked up one of his

phones and saw Stacey's number on the screen.

Frowning, he stood up to lock his door before he took the call. He is wondering why she is calling

Derick.

"Honey?" he asked in that throaty voice of Derick.

"H-Hello." she answered huskily.

"Is something wrong? Why did you call?" he asked worriedly.

She didn't immediately respond which made his frown deepen.

"I-I c-called to say I miss you." she said.

The crease on his forehead cleared a little. She may have slapped him as Nick but she is now being

sweet to him as Derick.

He smiled. But his smile disappeared when he thought that she might be calling him from somewhere

outside the company's premises.

"Where are you honey?" he asked her.

"At work."

He almost gave out a sigh of relief.

"How about you? Where are you?" she asked him.

He heard her voice echoing. "Honey? Where exactly are you?"

Stacey got out of the cubicle and fumbled inside her bag for her lipstick .

"In the company's restroom. Why?"

"That explains the echo." he said with a grin. Stacey didn't leave the building. He is sure that she is

retouching her make-up.

"I asked you where you are."

"I'm ..err.. in my office." he told her.

"Stacey! So this is where you are! I thought you left because your bag wasn't on my table! "

Nick's eyes narrowed when he heard his secretary's voice.

"Geez girl! Sir Billy looks almost smitten when he saw you!" Cherry added which made him grit his

teeth.

(Stacey)

She almost uttered a worried sound. Derick heard what Cherry said. She put her forefinger in front of

her mouth to tell her to keep quiet then she pointed at her phone. Cherry got the message so she just

smiled apologetically.

"Opps sorry! I didn't know you were on the phone. Is that your boyfriend?" Cherry asked.

She pouted. How will she answer that? Derick is not her official boyfriend. She almost sighed when she

heard his shallow breathing.

"She asked you a question honey." He said throatily. "And who is Billy?" he asked in a very cold voice .

She knows he is angry. Derick is very possessive.

With her eyes, she sent another silent message to Cherry. She felt relieved when she said, " Well.. I will

go ahead Stacey. Sir Nick might need me. See you later!"

She gave her a small smile. After Cherry closed the door, " Derick, I hope you are not angry. I didn't

know how to answer her . " she explained.

"Who is Billy?" Nick asked. He wants to test her if she will tell the truth but she didn't answer him

immediately.

"Honey? I asked you two times already." he said with an arctic voice.

"H-He is a friend of my boss." she replied in a small voice.

Nick sat on his chair again. He leaned . Maybe he should ask her questions about her "boss".

"Is your boss a male of a female?"

Before answering Nick's question, Stacey removed the cap of her lipstick.

"Male." she said before applying some color on her lips

"Good-looking?" Nick asked. He's very curious to know her answer.

Stacey was really surprised at his out of the blue question. Her hand shook a little which caused a

smear.

"I'm sorry? What was that?" she asked while she wipes the smeared lipstick outside the corner of her

lips with her index finger.

(Nick)

"He is probably very good-looking. " he tried to hide the smile in his voice. He swallowed a chuckle.

"Maybe some women find him attractive but I don't like him. He is condescending, fresh and very

demanding!" Stacey said with a hint of irritation in her voice.

His grin disappeared.

The fuck? She doesn't like me?! he asked himself in disbelief .

"I told you many times that looks don't matter to me. I like you more Derick. You are nicer and you

really take care of me. The only complaint I have is you didn't want to kiss me last Saturday. " she said

with a pout probably. " I miss you Derick.." she added sounding sincere.

He gritted his teeth and balled his left fist. He didn't like what she said about Nick. Physically she is not

attracted to him?

That's a first! He thought.

"Derick?"

But that's what he wanted right? He wanted her to like him as Derick whom she hasn't seen so he can

prove to himself that she is not after his looks and money . He now believes that she doesn't truly care

about physical appearance.

Stacey is really one in a million. He made the right decision. He chose well. He will do anything and

everything to make the whole her his. Only his.

(Stacey)

Her forehead creased. Is Derick still on the line?

"Hello Derick?"

"Honey.." he finally answered.

She sighed in relief.

"I thought the line was cut. Can you call me later? I have to go back now. My high-handed boss might

start looking for me. " she said . She is putting her lipstick back in her bag.

"Okay."

" I really do miss you a lot Derick. I'll wait for your call later." she said huskily.

She was waiting for him to say that he misses her too but he just hang up.

She heaved a sigh.

He is really bipolar. She thought.

(Nick)

He is probably sick in the head.

He is jealous of himself.Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org

Stacey prefers Derick over Nick. It's probably okay if he as Nick, her boss, won't often see her. But the

fact is, he will see her five days a week. And he is positive that he won't be able to stop himself from

kissing or touching her.

So what now asshole? You are going to compete with yourself? --he asked himself.

He wants Stacey to like him too as Nick. What she said kept on going inside his head.

Maybe some women find him attractive but I don't like him. He is condescending, fresh and very

demanding!

He stood up and made his decision.

"So you don't like such men honey? Maybe Nick will have to change his ways..." he said before a

naughty grin crossed his lips.
