He held her by the hand she was holding. Voltage of electricity rushed in her system again with the mere touch of their skin. However, unlike before, he was not so surprised. He gently pulled her towards the rows of tables while holding a plate in one hand that was overflowing with the amount of food he had taken. He put the carry-on on the table where he was sitting earlier. There were two other people there looking at them when Gideon pulled him a chair. The woman smiled at him and held out her hand. “I’m Amara Stephanie Almeradez.”
She shyly accepted his hand. “Lyzza Pacammara, Ma’am.” He laughed with amusement at what he said. “Just call me Amara or Steph and drop the ‘po’. We’re not that far apart in age, are we?” He nodded and smiled back at the woman. It looks kind and their beauty is on the same level. He secretly giggled at the thought. because he is not a head-turner. It’s fine, not pretty, not ugly either. And then he believes that beauty cannot be measured by external appearance. He is based on habit. That’s why he befriended Qyla and Jessica, eh. He almost laughed again at the thought. It’s a good thing he kept his mouth shut because otherwise he would have looked crazy in front of his tablemates. “Oh, this is my husband, Nexus Almeradez.
” He grabbed the arm of the man next to him. The shape of his face is the same as Gideon’s. Serious, quiet and intimidating. He must be the owner of the Almeradez hotel that currently occupies the penthouse. That’s what he heard from the manager earlier. He was surprised when Gideon put the fried chicken he was holding in his mouth. When she looks at him, he simply tilts his head, telling her to take a bite.
He was about to grab the fried chicken from her when he pushed it away from her. He didn’t do anything but bite into the food he was drinking in his mouth. He was still shy and simply looked around to see if anyone was looking at them. But it seems that people inside the restaurant know how to mind their own business. Even the Almeradez couple seems to have their own world close together and talking while Nexus occasionally kisses his wife on the forehead and hair.
“I can eat.” “You are really hard-headed,” he muttered. He just ignored it and just ate. It really confirms and affirms their sharing on the same plate.
He was almost the only one who ate and it looks like he’s really eating and sneaking around
just not yet. After he cleared the contents of the plate, Gideon invited them out. And because he didn’t want to be locked in his suite again, he agreed. They left the hotel after she went back to her suite and said goodnight to her baby. He was wearing casual jeans and a t-shirt while he was wearing a denim skirt and a thin sweat shirt.
They stroll down the lane of the alive city. The city of Davao is still alive even at nine o’clock at night,
She let him hold her hand. She even intertwined their fingers that received a glance from him. He glanced at her with a serious face and his eyes dropped to their clasped hands. He didn’t comment but squeezed her hand. As before, he looked like a toddler next to her. He only reached up to her chest and he had to look up when he looked at her face. Her petite body has no match for his big one. His body is really for the military men. 2 The veins in his arms screamed danger and his eyes were telling everyone to back off. “Where are we going, Sir?” he asked when they got away from the Almeradez Hotel. “Gideon, Lyzza. Call me Gideon, not Sir.” He bowed to her. “Just how you call me that night,” he said to her hoarsely. 1. The hair on the back of his neck rose as his cheeks heated up. She was horrified by his hoarse voice and the intensity of his gaze on her. His lips parted spontaneously and the name slipped out as he had mentioned it several times that night. “Gideon…”
He swallowed hard because his gaze was fixed on him and his eyes seemed to be on fire. He also tightened his grip on her hand. His eyes were screaming the same emotion that he had that night. He wanted to retreat reluctantly. Because he is no longer innocent with that kind of gaze and emotion. She knew that he was tempted to her…he was l(u)sting her.
And d*mn her! Because after all these years, her body is still yearning to be in his arms again.
One of his hands grabbed her back and slid around her waist. He pulled her towards him. His face lightly hit her hard chest. He swallowed the smell of this mixture of expensive men’s perfume and the natural masculine smell.
He bent down until their faces were level. His nose brushed against the side of her cheek to her jaw.
“Strawberry,” he murinured under his breath. “Addicting strawberries.” And he literally sniffs her scent
