The Royal Contract

Chapter 541 - Desire For The Flesh

Back in the city, inside the privacy of his office. He looked at the uninvited visitor who had just walked into the room without his permission. To say that he was astonished would be an understatement.

He was not expecting that she would be standing in his presence at this very moment. On the contrary, he thought that she would still be disappointed with him after his cancellation.

"I will admit I am surprised to see you, Jacky, but I am glad you are here." He immediately left his desk and walked toward her to greet her. "Actually, you are just in time. I am famished."

He quickly enveloped her in his embrace and claimed her lips with his hungry ones. He prolonged the kiss as if he was a starving man, getting his fill, not yet ready to let her go. With the help of his hands, he made her feel his longing for her.

Eventually, he had to come up for air, reluctantly releasing her supple lips. He let his hands settle on her hips, steadying her after their passionate kiss.

"I was not expecting that kind of welcome either." She finally found her voice after catching up with her breath. Her hands encircled tightly around his neck for support as she stared into his eyes.

She could not help but smile, feeling relieved that he did not mind her sudden appearance. At the same time, she felt ecstatic after the warm greetings she had just received.

"Come on, what did you bring me?" Marcus pulled her with him behind his desk, but he did not offer her a seat. He made her sit on his lap instead.

He knew he was busy, but he could not turn her away. He liked that she came to see him. In addition, he was honestly hungry. Suddenly, feeling his stomach protesting from the lack of food.

He remembered that his secretary offered to order him some dinner, but he mumbled something about asking her later. Then, he had forgotten all about it until now.

"It is nothing much. It was supposed to be my dinner, but I thought of sharing it with you." She explained as she pulled the food containers out of the bag.

There was more than enough for one since she liked to cook some extra. Then, she would store the rest for the next day. It would be handy if she could not cook or did not want to cook.

Ever since Dani moved out, cooking for one had been depressing for her. Living alone brought back memories of the times she struggled to survive by herself.

"Stopped moving too much, or we might end up not eating any of that food." He teased her, biting his lips to stop himself from saying more.

She kept adjusting her ass on his lap as she moved to prepare their dinner on the desk in front of them. Suddenly, his idea seemed not such a bright idea after all as it backfired on him.

He could not blame himself for feeling that way. It had been a while since he had sex. Not because he did not have an opportunity to have some, but he chose to abstain from it.

"That is not funny." She replied, not that she was offended by his teasing. On the contrary, she was also feeling the same way. It had been a long time since she had been with a man.

As a matter of fact, he was the last man she was in bed with. Although she tried to date and look for another man that would replace him in her heart. She never did end up hooking up with any of them.

Maybe because her heart and mind knew that she only belonged with him. It appeared that unconsciously she had been preserving herself for him.

"I am not trying to be funny." He said seriously this time as he pulled her even closer to his body, letting her feel how much he had missed her.

Most of the girls who had been throwing themselves at him were very attractive, beautiful, intelligent, sexy, and hot, but they had one flaw. All of them were not her.

Since he realized that losing her was the biggest mistake he had ever made in his life. He never could see another woman in the same way again. He could only think about her and how much he was a prick to her. He had wanted her back.

"Well, I am not laughing either." She said to him in almost a whisper, turning around to face him. This time, she claimed his lips for another round.

She wrapped her arms around his shoulder, leaning even closer to his body. She wanted to feel him closer to hers, wanting his warmth to seep through her skin.

She could feel that he wished for the same thing as his hands wrapped around her waist, his palm planted on the surface of her back, pulling her tighter against his solid chest.

"I miss you so much." Marcus finally voiced out after she released his lips and worked her way down his neck.

The only thing that stood in their way was their clothes, preventing them from feeling their skin against each other. There was an easy fix to such a situation, she thought.

She started to pull the loose tie wrapped around his neck. Then, she worked on unbuttoning his shirt while he did the same, following her cue.

"I miss you too." She responded as she continued to kiss him just below his ears.

They were halfway to removing the clothes from their upper body when a startled voice alerted them of another person's presence in the room.

It was like a cold bucket of ice was poured over their bodies, making them realize that they were inside an office. Although it was late, it was still full of buzzing employees.

"I am sorry." The female voice said apologetically, not expecting what she would witness inside the room. "I will just come back in a few minutes."

She immediately turned her back away from the scene and walked out of the room. She usually knocked on the door before coming in, but it was already beyond office hours.

Then, she had an urgent business she needed to discuss with her boss. She just did not see the point of being formal. The only problem was, she did not know that he had a visitor inside.

"Oh, my!" Jacky scrambled out of his lap and quickly fixed her clothes, but she could not help herself as she started laughing at their situation.

"What is so funny this time?" Marcus asked with a confused smile on his face, seeing that she was enjoying herself after what happened.

He also started fixing the button of his shirt but did not bother to put back the tie on and let it just lie on the floor where she threw it earlier.

He always liked her easy-going style. Not letting small things bother her. It was one of the many of her qualities that he had loved about her.

"Nothing and everything." She answered as she returned her attention to the food they had forgotten all about. "You and me." She added, not making sense at all.

Her mind just went back to all those times when they both thought that the only connection they had was sex. They were only compatible because of their sexual attraction to one another.

Presently, she had no more doubt that some deeper feelings had linked them together.. The way they felt about each other now was more than a desire for the flesh.
