Chapter 166 - Fast And Effective

"Where had you been, Nick? I'd been calling and texting you for hours, but you are not answering your phone." She asked, fuming in anger as he entered her apartment.

They were supposed to go out together tonight, and she had been waiting all night for him to call. But her eyes almost turned white, waiting for him, but he did not even bother to tell her that he was not going to show up.

Unfortunately, she was still wearing her sexy dress, hoping they were still going out and salvaged the remaining of the night. But from the look on Nick's face, it was not likely to happen.

"Cassie, I have no time for your shit." He said, pressing his lips together, not in the mood for her dramatics. "I'm tired." Dismissing her with a wave of his hands.

He quickly entered her room to get changed. For the last couple of months, he had decided to bring some of his things to her apartment. In case he had to spend the night in her place. It saved him the time from going from traveling to two places to change.

He untied his tie and unbuttoned his shirt as he prepared for bed. He did not even notice that Cassie was about to explode in anger from how he was behaving. His mind was still busy thinking of what happened earlier.

"Seriously, that is all you have to say. You are tired." Cassie stood in front of him. The veins bulged in her temples and her fists clenched on her side as she controlled not to hit him in his face. "You're not even sorry for standing me up."

"Oh, is that all you want?" Nick stopped what he was doing and looked at her. "I'm sorry. Satisfied?" He said sarcastically, clearly annoyed as he moved to the bathroom, slamming the door behind him. He quickly removed the remaining of his clothes to hit the shower.

He walked into the large cubicle and closed the glass door. He opened the faucet, wanting the cold water to cool him down because he knew he was still simmering inside. Besides, he could not take Cassie's nagging at a time like this.

He wanted to be alone while he recalled his encounter with Dani. The way her skin felt in his touch and the way her voice sounded in his ears. He wanted her back, and he would do anything to have her again.

He suddenly regretted that he had ignored her during the time that they were together. It was a mistake to fool around with Cassie when he already had Dani in his hands. But Cassie was superb in bed, compared to Dani, a temptation that was hard to refuse.

A huge mistake that he presently regretted and would do anything to remedy. But he could not dump Cassie yet. He still needed her in his plans.

As the water ran down his body, his mind flew on the event earlier. He just finished a meeting with some clients when he saw her on her way to the bar with the girl he saw at the party.

He could not believe his luck because he had been waiting for an opportunity to see her. It would seem that fate was on his side.

He already expected that she would resist his presence, the same way she did at the party. But he already had something set in his mind. He scanned the place for Alex, and he was nowhere in sight, so it was safe to say that she was here and he was not.

"Damn!" He cursed loudly as the water kept dripping down his body. He suddenly remembered the man that tried to stop him from his plans.

She was supposed to be dating Alex, so he wondered who was the man with Dani at the club. Why did he appear to be close to her as he protected her as if she belonged to him? Was she out on a date with him? But that was unlikely.

It did not make sense, but he intended to find out more about the man that was circling Dani. It would seem that another one was vying for her attention, and he could not have that.

After Nick left her in the room, Cassie wished to follow him in the bathroom at that instant. But then thought otherwise, she believed that they would only clash and worsen their situation. That was not how she should handle him when he was in this mood.

"Oh! If only." She stopped herself from finishing her sentence, not wanting him to hear what she had in her mind. She had to calm down and think this through before it escalated to a huge fight, and she ended up like Dani.

But if she would guess why he was acting this way, she could only think of one reason. He probably saw or heard something about Dani. That was the only possible reason he would be in such a bad state.

After fifteen minutes of calming down, she decided to follow him inside the bathroom. She stared at the man behind the glass door, slightly covered in steam.

Unhooking her gown from the back of her neck, she let it slide down her body until it hit the tiled floor. The rest followed until she stood naked outside the door.

She slid it open. Not waiting for an invitation, she joined Nick underneath the flowing water. She knew what to do in a time like this. She had done it so many times that seduction was almost second-natured to her.

"I want to be alone." Nick hissed as he felt her touch.

One thing he could count on Cassie was her expertise in making him want her. Despite the way he felt about her, she still managed to get into his skin.

"No, you don't. You want me." Her lip started on the base of his neck, down to his chest, making its way downwards until she reached her goal.

"You certainly know what I need." He said as he quivered under her ministration. With his hand entangled in her hair, he guided her to what he desired until he found his satisfaction.

With a guttural roar, he released the tension he suffered since he saw Dani, giving him relief like no other. It might be Cassie in front of him, but in his mind, he imagined differently.

"Yes, and you should remember that." Cassie stood up from her position and entwined her arms around his neck, wanting it to be her turn.

When she felt him moved closer until their bodies were almost one, she knew everything would be alright between them. He claimed her lips with so much passion. Caressed her face, down her body, making her want more.

"Please, I need you now." She begged him as her body burned everywhere he touched and kissed her.

"Patience," Nick told her as he worked her up until she was writhing underneath his body.

Then he entered her, possessing her and owning her, reminding her that she was his and his alone.

Cassie felt satiated after feeling him explode in her, seeing the gratification in his face. She knew she did well. She had accomplished her mission.

It was the simplest way to resolve their issue. It was fast and effective.
