A Stolen Kiss From THE CEO!

Chapter 56

56 Righteous Fury

The sparring room was well illuminated and the walls were made of bulletproof glass two-way mirrors.

Richard was granted freedom to move around, in his new prison room. He knew that there was no escaping, as he scrutinized the nicely structured room. He moved around flexing his muscles and wrist for imminent combat. He had a feeling that Leon was around and would face him at any moment. So, stretching and twisting his neck from side to side, he waited patiently. Aside from Leon’s earlier punch on his face, he hadn’t been roughed up, in any way.

Locked up in this room alone, had given him enough time to think about so many things. He didn’t need a soothsayer to tell him that Ella would hate him for life. Although, he wished he had accomplished his mission on her. In that way, her grievance would be justified. But now, he was her enemy deprived of his pound of flesh.

His mind drifted towards Maggie and his heart dampened. If she ever heard about this, she would never forgive him. He felt a bit remorseful and regretted ever listening to that conniving Susan. There were better ways to either get Ella back or deal with her. He had allowed rage to blind him so badly. He didn’t blame Leon for his reaction. Any sane man would defend his wife against all enemies.

After moving around for a while stretching and flexing his muscles and body, he bent down to sit when the door suddenly opened.

Leon stepped into the room, looking like a demonic beast, straining to be set loose. His eyes were bloodshot and his puffed-up muscles glinted under the light. His body shone, as though he had bathed in Olive oil. And from his bare chest, Richard knew that a blood combat was at hand.

“So you intend to f**k my wife and you called me her little husband?” Leon’s deep chilly voice boomed in the spacious room. “I’ll give you the liberty to draw the first blood. After that, I’ll damn your soul to hell.”

Leon’s terrifying words and monstrous approach made Richard shudder. But he shook his head and clenched his fist. From the look of it, Leon intended to fight him alone.

“Let’s make a bargain,” Richard returned Leon’s ferocious glares. “If I beat you, then you must grant my freedom immediately,” he spat out in disgust. “But...”

.....

“You dare negotiate with me...” Leon menacingly moved closer causing Richard to position himself for battle.

“Take the first punch, you bastard! That is all gonna get?” Leon’s blazing eyes shot firey darts at Richard.

POW!

On impulse, Richard threw the first punch, which Leon openly absorbed like welcoming a heavy downpour on a scorched drought-infested field. Leon shut his eyes momentarily and opened them, revealing his bloodthirsty being. Richard’s first punch had unknowingly awakened the hibernating monster in Leon. He lifted his fist to strike Leon a second time but Leon caught his hand in mid-air.

“My turn...” Leon released a devastating blow.

POW!

CRACK!

“AARGH!”

“GULP!”

Richard’s broken jaw and bleeding nose were a sight for sore eyes. He lay on the floor, looking limp as Leon had broken and dislocated his bones and joints.

Leon didn’t use any weapon for the physical combat except his hands. But Richard’s current state could be mistaken for a weaponized combat.

“P... please... don’t kill me! E...Ella...Ella...” Richard’s weak and muffled voice pleaded, as Leon’s knees gradually crushed his pharynx.

Leon released his neck gradually at the mention of his beloved wife’s name. Ella wasn’t present at the moment but her name was as potent as an Exocet missile. His bloodshot vision gradually dissipated. He glared at the bloodied face of Richard one more time, then stood up, and walked out of the room.

“Take him to the hospital,” Leon’s voice was low but firm. He had intended to snuff out Richard’s life with his bare hands. But somehow, Richard had been miraculously saved by Ella’s name.

All Leon wanted to do right now was go home and be with his wife. He didn’t want Ella to wake up without finding him by her side.

After driving for thirty minutes, Leon arrived at the villa. He went into his room and took a shower. He dressed his slightly cut lips that had been inflicted by Richard’s punch. Feeling satisfied with his look, he gently walked into Ella’s room. He was happy to see her still sleeping deeply.

The sedatives had been very helpful as she slept like a baby. Leon joined her on the bed and cuddled her.

Very early the next morning, Ella opened her eyes feeling much better. She was happy to know that Leon had kept her company all through the night. She quietly lifted her head from his chest, as she didn’t want to wake him. She tried to steal a glance at his sleeping face, but she was stunned and disappointed that he was already awake and staring lovingly at her.

“I thought you were sleeping.” She pouted and sat up. “I didn’t mean to wake you up.” Her eyes caught sight of his slightly cut lower lips and her eyes flared up in anxiety.

“Ella, stop that!” Leon sternly scolded. He sat up and pulled her into his arms, stroking her hair tenderly. He had observed her swift change in expression and acted on impulse. “I want you to take everything that happened yesterday as a horrible nightmare. I know it would be difficult, but I want you to forget about it all.”

“You’re not mad at me?” She stroked his abs softly causing Leon to bite his lower lips seductively.

“I was, but I have forgiven you.” His hand trailed slowly from her full curly hair, to her nape and down her back, – sending emotional chills down Ella’s spine.

“Thanks. I’ll try and forget about the whole incident.” She slide her fingers sensually from his abs to his chest and gently drew circles around his nipples. “But if I ever lay my hands on Richard, I’ll crush his balls.” She gently but firmly squeezed Leon’s nipples causing him to let out a muffled grunt.

“I can arrange such a meeting for you.” He deftly and impatiently tore her clothes from her body. “It would also give me great pleasure to watch you do that.” He cupped her face with his hands and greedily kissed her lips.

“Ooh!”

Ella’s hands showed no mercy, as they tormented every part of his erogenous zones. This made Leon groan deeply at her wild pleasure.

“Oh Ella, I love you so much! You’re killing me softly.”

“Shit!”

“Agh!”

She forcefully pulled Leon’s wet luscious lips from her boobs and made him gaze into her eyes. “I want to see Richard today and exact my revenge on him. That will help me heal faster.” She licked Leon’s face teasingly.

“Done!” Leon gently but greedily took her into his world of romantic bliss. Every of her pleasurable moan sounded like the hypnotic and captivating sonorous singing of the sea-dwelling Siren.

“Ella! You’ll be the death of me.” Leon couldn’t seem to get enough of the magical creature in his arms.

After almost two hours of passionate lovemaking, they both showered, dressed up, and came down for breakfast.

“Ella, I discovered something I’ll like to share with you.” Leon smiled lustfully at her. Her morning glow was so enchanting. He felt like making love to her again on the dining table.

Ella munched on the scrambled eggs in her mouth and looked askance at him.

“This might disrupt your mood but it would be necessary for your healing process. Also, I have taken the liberty to cancel all your schedule and mine for today.” He stared intently at her. “If the doctor says you are mentally and emotionally fit for work, then you can resume work tomorrow.”

Ella smiled affectionately at him. She stood up, went over, and sat provocatively on his thigh. “Whatever you say, boss.” She wrapped her hands around his neck and kissed him on the lips.

“Oh Ella, you are driving me nuts.” He returned her passionate kisses.

“Ahem!” Paul cleared his throat causing the two lovebirds to restrain from advancing into stage two of another romance episode. “The guest is here, Mr. Leon.”

“Bring her in,” Leon commanded in irritation. Paul had just intruded in a special moment which piqued Leon.

Ella was about to stand up and return to her seat but Leon held onto her waist. “Don’t go!” He whispered seductively into her ears causing her to giggle like a child licking her favourite ice cream.

When Susan walked into the dining room looking like the ghost of her former self, both Ella’s and Leon’s expressions dampened. It was as though a stormy dark cloud was hovering over a fun-filled beautiful picnic.

“Susan! What are you doing here?” Ella stared at her in disbelief. “You look awful” Ella stood up and walked towards her.

“Ella, stop right there! You don’t want to be close to me.” Susan stepped back slowly. She was so horrified by Leon’s glares. “I have been a terrible and evil friend. I conspired with Richard to harm you, and I’m having his baby.

“What!” Ella’s eyes widened and she shook her head in disbelief.

Leon was already behind his wife to give her emotional support. His scowling glares at Susan made her almost pass out from fright.

“Susan, you can’t be serious! You are my friend! You would never hurt me! Would you?” Ella stared at her in confusion.

“I have been jealous of you for a long time.” Susan sobbed as tears flowed down her cheeks. “I planned everything with Richard. We have been having regular sex for almost two weeks now.”

A wave of shock swept through Ella’s body.

“I’m very sorry. I didn’t mean...”

SMACK!

SMACK!

Susan winced in pain due to the sting of Ella’s fierce slap.

“Get out of here before I strangle you with my bare hands, you demon from hell!.” Ella’s eyes shone with righteous rage.

“I’m sorry...”

“She said you should get out, tramp!” Leon’s voice boomed from behind Ella.

Like a frightened mouse, Susan scurried out of the dining room, with Paul in the lead.

Ella turned around and threw herself into Leon’s arms. “I’m going to kill him! God help me, I’m going to murder him. I don’t mind going to jail right now.” She sobbed in Leon’s arms.

“It’s okay Ella. No one is going to jail. He’s already paying for his crime.” Leon stroked her hair tenderly.

“Do you have him?” Ella pulled away from Leon’s arms and stared into his eyes with an unquenchable fury.

“He’s at the hospital!” Leon was slightly worried by Ella’s reaction. “He was taught a lesson for messing with my wife.”

“Take me to him!” Ella stifled her tears and wiped her face dry. Her sudden expression was like that of the one eye cyclops that was blinded by the Greek warrior, Odyssey of Ithaca.
