The Girl He Craves novel (Sophie and Aiden) novel Chapter 69

Aiden’s pov

I wasn’t sure why I was holding her like she was a fragile doll. I wasn’t sure why holding her felt so….good. Why it almost feels like a necessity to have her in my arms…..

I shook my head. I’m thinking way too much recently, especially when it comes to her.

She shifts in my arms, her sweet smell reaching my nose, and unashamed, I took in a long whiff.

I’m aware that most if not all of my employees eyes were suddenly very keen on me. They were no doubt shocked to see me carrying her inside the building.

With the way I carried myself around, cold and bossy, it didn’t surprise me by their sudden reaction. Honestly, I was expecting it.

I just didn’t care what they thought, I was the one paying them anyway so it would be best if they keep their thoughts and gossip to themselves.

“Okay, my feet feel much better now.” Sophie said when we stop inches from the elevator.

A smirk tug on my lips when I press the button and waited for the doors to slide open while keeping her in my arms still.

Sure I was doing this to annoy her but I also didn’t want to let her go yet.

Sophie and I may not see eye to eye at the moment but it’s clear that I am still attracted to her even after everything that went down between us.

I stepped into the empty elevator and pressed my floor button.

“Aiden,” Sophie, huffs, looking up at me with a glare.

I peer down at her when the elevator doors ding shut. With a curving grin on my face, I asked. “What?”

I played dumbfounded and nearly chuckled when her eyes grew dark with irritation.

“I said my feet are better now and I can be placed down on the floor, thank you.” She huffed.

I let her glare at me for a couple more seconds, enjoying this way too much than I should.

There was just something about that sudden spark of fire Sophie now had that both intrigued and turned me on even more than before. Which I thought was impossible to gain such a feeling and reaction when she did something so cruel to me.

It was still crazy to think that we shared a whole human being. We created one. Me and her.

I would’ve probably been more out of the fucking moon, happy as hell about sharing genes with her if she hadn’t decided to keep him away from my knowledge.

Don’t get me wrong, even though she did something so cruel to me, she was still the only woman I’d ever actually want to

have my kid.

Teenager Aiden was still inside me after all. I was still mad at her, furious about her decision.

But there was nothing that could be done now about it, and at some point, I would have to move on from the fact that she had done this to me. But for now, I should still make her pay a’ little bit.

Not too extreme now that she is the mother of my child. But make her pay nonetheless for practically betraying me.

“What are you smirking about?” She asked with an accusing tone.

I hadn’t realized that I was smirking until she pointed it out.

“Nothing,” I said with a shrug and place her down on her feet before she could skim for more. questions.
