Is her heart beating as fast as yours?
I didn't know that I was starving 'til I tasted you
Don't need no butterflies when you give me the whole damn zoo
By the way, by the way, you do things to my body
I didn't know that I was starving 'til I tasted you…
(Starving)
Chapter twenty-eight: The Things you do to me
It was almost a week now that we are back in our house in New York.
"Our?"
I mean Alex's house and I could say that I'm happy with what is going on with us. It's like we have silent agreement that our family issues should not intervene with our life right now. After a day of rest, Alex went back to work and as always she was busy as ever. But one thing is change according to Nicky, Alex tries to get home before dinner time. Actually it is not the only time we tried to eat together but also during breakfast. Just like now, we are having breakfast in the garden.
"Daya told me that you wanted to resume the filming of your film as soon as possible. Are you sure about that? If my memory serves me right, you are also currently working on a novel right now." Alex asked me then sliced a bite of the vegetable omelet I made for breakfast. As much as possible I tried to cook the food we are going to eat.
"Because that is a duty of a responsible housewife."
"Will you shut up?" I said internally groaning.
"Oh so you have accepted your fate already?"
"Yes. I want to start early with the filming because I know how crazy actors' schedule could be." I answered after observing that Alex liked my cooking. I'm not really into vegetables but I noticed that Alex's diet is always consisting of organic vegetables, so I tried to learn how to cook vegetables in the most delicious way possible.
"For your beloved wife?"
"This is good, Piper. How did you learn to cook?" Alex asked.
"When my nanny saw that I liked to watch how food are cooked in our house, she taught me a few tricks. I also tried to get some schooling about cooking when I have writer's block. How about you? Do you know how to cook?" I asked curiously.
"Yes. Actually my mother was a gourmet chef and from there I learned how to cook and tried culinary on the side when I was in London." She answered seriously.
"Do you miss her?" I asked cautiously.
"Yes." She answered briefly.
I reached for her hand and I could see that she is hesitating to reach it. I just waited for her but after a few seconds, she reached my hand and squeezed it. It was a simple gestures for the others but for us who started in a wrong foot in this marriage, it says a lot. Emotional connection is undeniable but we are walking in a string line and I don't want to try how strong the thin line we are having.
"How about you? Do you miss your family?" she asked with a clenched jaw.
"Not really. Cal is the only one who I could consider very close to me. My family relationship is different from yours." I said then look away from her.
"Care to explain?" Alex asked me curiously.
"Maybe next time. I don't want to ruin our day." I said and I am surprised to see her reaching for my hand. I placed my hand into her and she squeezed it again.
"I just remember, Piper. There is a schedule dinner party tonight with some of the family of our partners. Do you want to come to the dinner party?" Alex asked me after releasing my hand. I missed her warm immediately.
"I don't know. I don't want to embarrass you in front of them because I don't know anything about the company." I said a bit shyly. She laughed hard from what she heard from me.
"You will not embarrass me because I know how intelligent you are." She said then look me at the eyes.
"I'm not. Half of my life my father thought I'm useless because I choose to write for a living and not follow his step as a businessman." I said with a blush. I don't want to admit it but I know I'm stupid. Alex stand from where she sit, kneel in front of me and hold both of my hand.
"You are not useless, Piper. You may not be in a fast pacing corporate world but your craft shows how intelligent you are." She said then kissed the inside of my palm. I could feel my eyes watering.
"Thank you." I said feeling the intensity of what she said to me. I looked at her eyes and see how dark her eyes are. I started to feel that our face is getting closer and I don't want to deny anymore that I miss her kisses so much. This one is not explosive but I could feel her respect to me and the sincerity in her compliments. I snaked my right hand to her neck to deepen our kissed and if her moan is not indicator that she approved my action then I don't know what is the meaning of her moan at all. A phone could be heard ringing in the background and I need to stop kissing her.
"Gina, put that on the speaker." Alex said when I released her and she went back to her place. I could feel myself blushing because of how I tried to devour Alex's lips during the kiss. I could feel her eyes looking at me intently but I couldn't look at her because of how embarrass I am with my action.
"Hello, Vause! Good morning. I know that you are currently busy getting it on like bunnies but get your ass here as soon as possible because Caesar wants to talk to you about the contract." Nicky said then hang up without even waiting for Alex to say anything. If there is any possibilities that my face gets any redder then I could be as ripe as a tomato.
"Don't mind her. She doesn't know anything." Alex tried to explain but her uneasiness is evident in her voice. I don't know what to reply to that so I just nodded and we tried to finish our breakfast silently.
After making sure that I'm ready for my work, I walked in front of our house where my driver is waiting for me.
"Our house?"
I sighed hard and Piper mistake it as a sign of frustration.
"Don't worry, everything will be okay." Piper said then smoothen my collar. I really like the little things Piper do for me like cooking for us and trying to help me pick a cloth for my work while I'm brushing my teeth.
"Thank you. Ceasar is just a pain in the ass." I said. "I will be fetching you around 6." I added. She nodded as an acknowledgement.
"Good bye, Piper." I said then kiss her again. It is becoming a habit that I will kiss her before I leave for work.
"Good bye and take care." She said dazedly.
"To my office" I said to my driver.
I went inside the house to get my laptop and work at the garden for my novel. My muse for writing is in a roll today so I will take advantage of it. Before going to the garden, I opted to go to the kitchen to get some juice but I stop in my tracks when I heard Gina and another maid talking to each other.
"I hope it will remain like this between the two. They are so cute together." the maid said to Gina.
"Yeah, I hope so too. I haven't seen Ms. Vause this happy since Ms. Little Sunshine left the house. Ms. Piper definitely brings her back to life." Gina said.
"Who is Ms. Little Sunshine?" I asked myself.
"She is definitely different around Ms. Piper." Gina continued saying. Before she could say anymore, I make my steps louder so they will be both aware that I'm near.
"Ms. Piper, do you need anything?" Gina asked with any expression but I could detect a surprise tone in her voice.
"I just need a glass of juice." I said acting as if I just arrived. I could see the other maid sighing hard and I wanted to chuckle but I needed to pretend that I didn't hear them.
"I will just put it in the garden, Ms. Piper." Gina said then immediately pulled a glass from the rack.
"Thank you, Gina." I said then walked but I could hear the other maid asking Gina if she thinks I heard them. Gina shushed her in the process.
As I sit in the garden, the thought about the Ms. Little Sunshine person is swirling inside my head.
"I could not possibly asked Gina about this Ms. Little Sunshine person because she is so tight lip and Alex will know I'm being nosy. Nicky will definitely tease me about it and we are not close enough to ask certain things about Alex."
I resign myself with the thought that probably I will never know who this Kim person is in Alex life.
"So are you bringing Piper to the dinner later?" Nicky asked curiously.
"Of course, she is my wife and she needs to get acquainted with my partners in the business." I said while tidying up the documents in front of me.
"Oh, your wife! I'm not still use how possessive you sounded there, Vause." Nicky said then laugh hard.
"I'm not possessive and it's the truth." I said defensively. Nicky is always teasing me about how possessive I could get calling Piper as my wife. "I just hope we will not get bored with the dinner later." I added.
"Trust me, Vause, you will not get bored tonight." Nicky said and walked towards the door.
"What do you mean by that?" I asked Nicky curiously. She just winked at me and closed the door.
Sometimes Nicky could get really weird.
It was already four when I started to get ready for the dinner. This is the first event that we will attend as a married couple and I don't want to embarrass Alex in the process. I tried to search for some information about Alex's partners so that I will have some background about them. I thoroughly clean myself and carefully choose my dress. I just hope that it will suit whatever Alex is wearing. After making sure that the gown is perfectly fitted with me, I applied a light make-up. I called Polly through FaceTime to ask her opinion about my look.
"So Polly, what do you think?" I asked nervously.
"Holy cow! You will set them on fire, Piper!" Polly said with wide eyes.
"Polly! I need an honest answer." I twirled around the room to show her my looks.
"You know me, Piper. I don't sugarcoat things." Polly said. "You really look hot and decent. Don't worry, you will not embarrass her." Polly said seriously.
"But…what if…" I said nervously.
"Piper! She is not your father and by the way I caught her looking at you, her eyes will never leave you." Polly said in a teasing voice.
"What do you mean by that?" I asked but Polly end the conversation when I heard someone knocked on my door.
"Ms. Vause, Is already waiting downstairs, Ms. Piper." Gina said when I opened the door.
I take a deep breath and started to walk down the stairs.
Is it possible to get any more beautiful than ever?
I know I'm gawking at Piper bluntly but I cannot take my eyes away from her.
How does this woman always outdone herself?
I know I'm exaggerating but the midnight blue long sleeve gown with a slit in almost the side of her body, showing her creamy right leg whenever she walk will make any people turn their head around to look at Piper. Thinking about the people that will look at her lecherously makes my brow furrowed. Piper is already in front of me and fidgeting her hands when she tried to talk to me.
"Hey." She said not looking at me straight in the eyes.
"Hey, yourself. Here I brought you some flowers" I answered then give her the flowers.
"Thank you. I will just ask Gina to put this in my room in a vase." she said then ask for Gina to put the flowers in her room. I don't know why but I cannot stop looking at her. When she realized what I'm doing, she shyly asked me about her looks.
"Is this okay? Do I need to change? I don't think…" she rambled on but I shushed her using my finger laying on her lips.
"You look lovely and may I add wonderful." I said then snaking my arms to her waist. She voluntarily snaked her arms to my neck.
"Thank you but your eyebrows furrowed when you see me." She said then hide in the crook of my neck.
Oh. Fuck! I could feel her hot breath on my neck.
"It's because you look beyond beautiful and I'm sure everybody will try to get your attention away from me." I said truthfully. I heard her gasped by what I say but I will not take back what I said.
"Don't worry, the only eyes I wanted to look at me is my wife and no one else." She said then look at me straight in the eyes to convey her honesty. I could not take it anymore, I kissed her hard and panting. I tighten my grip on her waist and I could feel her hands caressing my nape. I heard her moaned and I swallowed it. We stop to breath and I could say that we are thinking the same thing - to not attend the dinner party.
"Alex, I think we need to stop. We will be late for the dinner." She said in a struggling breath. I moaned on what she said but I loosened my grip to her. I hold her hand and tried to pull her to the entrance of our house before I change my mind.
"Wait." Piper said. I stop in my track to ask her what she needs but she reached out to my lips and wiped her lipstick on my lips.
"Thank you." I looked at her and chuckle. "Maybe you need to reapply your lipstick." I add. She looked at her reflection on the door and blushed on what she saw.
"Can you wait for me for five minutes?" she asked.
"Sure with pleasure." I answered then she went to the common comfort room.
I get my lipstick in my clutch bag and reapplied it with accuracy. I don't want Alex to wait any longer. My jaws almost fall to the floor when I saw how gorgeous she look with a midnight blue three-pieced business suit with a cravat hanky in the pocket. She put a light make-up and curled the ends of her long hair.
She always looks hot in business suit.
I was so nervous when I saw how her perfectly knitted brows furrowed when she look over me. I immediately regretted wearing this dress but to say that I was surprised to hear her reason is beyond understatement. I don't want to assume things but it surely put me in a good mood. I finish reapplying my lipstick and went out of the comfort room.
"I'm sorry for making you wait." I apologized to her.
"Nonsense. As long as it's you, I can wait longer." She said.
My heart almost melted on what she said. I know it is a simple thing but it still makes my heart flutter.
"Thank you." I said then kissed on her cheeks. I could see her cheeks coloring but I don't want to tease her further.
The car ride was silent but it was one of the most comfortable moments for us.
I almost hide in Alex back when we step outside of the car and arrived at the venue. Her arms protectively went to my waist and lean on me.
"I'm here." She said then kissed the top of my head. Lights automatically went out and Alex just smiled at them and I tried my best to be at ease. We went inside the venue without a hitch.
"Aren't you the cutest couple here?" Nicky said when she saw us.
"Good evening, Nicky." My eyes rolled from what she said but I could see a knowing smirk from her.
"I didn't know you are the holding-hand type of girl, Vause." Nicky said teasingly. "And good evening to you, lovely lady." Nicky said and bowed in front of Piper, earning a chuckle from Piper. A twinge in my heart made my breathing hard.
No I can't be jealous and it is Nicky!
"Well, it is because you want to be the only one who can make her laugh."
"Good evening to you too, Nicky. How are you?" I heard Piper asked to Nicky.
"I'm definitely fine now that I see your beauty." Nicky answered, earning a chuckle again from Piper.
"So how did you manage to make Alex publicly hold your hand?" Nicky asked bluntly to Piper. I could see her blush but Piper just shrugged.
"If I dint know about your circumstances, I would say that you are very much in love with each other." Nicky said. I gulped down and I feel Piper involuntarily squeezed my hand.
"Nicky, I think Lorna is looking for you." I said then pointed Lorna's direction. Nicky automatically stand and walked to the direction I pointed. We both laughed how Nicky acted in front of us.
"So she is in love with Lorna." Piper said looking at how Nicky embarrassed herself in front of Lorna.
"Yep but she won't admit it." I said relieved that Piper didn't brought out what Nicky said.
The music stop and the host of the party speak to the guest.
"Hi! Good evening, ladies and gentlemen. I know you are hungry already and wanted to finish all the wine here." The host started and everyone laughed. "But before we feed you with overpriced food, I would like to call Ms. Alex Vause for a little speech for this evening." He added then I walked to the podium. Piper loosened her hold to my hand but I grip it a bit harder and tugging her towards me. I could see her surprised reaction but I just smiled and we walked towards the mini stage. The host give the microphone to me.
"Good evening, everyone. Thank you for coming to this party. I know you are all busy right now in adding millions in your bank account." I said then everyone chuckled. "Thank you for your continuing support with the company and as always like what my mother told you, the success of this company is your success. By the way, I know that it was already published in the news but I want to formally introduce my wife, Piper Chapman Vause." I said then I invite her to the stage. Piper shyly went to the stage and automatically stand beside me.
"Hello, everyone. Good evening and thank you for coming to this party. This is to celebrate your hard work and success. We hope you enjoy the evening." Piper said then bowed a little. I cannot stop myself at how adorable she is so I kissed the top of her head again. I could see Nicky doing a thumb up sign but I don't mind it because I look down at Piper and see her beaming smile.
The lights of the camera flash were blinding but I don't really mind because I know Alex liked what I did in my impromptu speech and my heart won't stop beating fast on how she introduced me to the crowd. It is the first time that I really get involved with any business party and it is very refreshing to see that someone is proud with me though I just did a small speech.
"You did well, my wife." Alex said proudly when we went back to our table. I don't know how it is possible that Nicky is the one allowed in the table but I like our privacy.
"Thank you. It's my first time to feel that someone is proud of me." I said shyly to Alex. She intertwine our fingers. My heart jumped with her endearment but then again I don't want to assume because of our situation.
"What is there not to be proud of you? A self-made successful writer and an intelligent woman who can hold good conversation." Alex said.
"If I didn't know any better, I could say that you are flirting with me and making the table only available to us." I said teasingly to Alex.
"Maybe I called someone to arrange it for us and maybe I am." Alex said then chuckled when she saw how my eyes went wide from what she said.
"Care to dance?" Alex said when the band played a slow music.
"Sure." I said then pulled her in the dance floor.
I placed her arms around my waist and I placed mine in her shoulders then after a few seconds I lay my head in her shoulder.
"So why you don't like business parties like this, Piper." Alex asked not really judging me.
"My father doesn't approved of my choices, thinking that arts especially literature is for those who doesn't use their mind. He thinks that I needed to focus on our business and my choice as a writer is the cause why we are not in talking terms." I said then sighed hard.
"If literature is for those who are not using their mind then how do you create beautiful art with letters?" Alex asked curiously. "I had read your novels and if your awards is not enough to prove that you are brilliant in your field then I don't know what to call you." She added strongly. I could feel my eyes getting watery with her question because it is the first time that I felt that someone truly appreciate my writings.
"Thank you." I said then look at her eyes intently. We stop moving and I could feel that she really wants to kiss me but there are a lot of people here right now. I could not stop anymore what I'm feeling.
"I need you right now." I tip toed and whispered to her then bite the shell of her ears. I heard her moan and she pulled me out of the dance floor. She leads me to the elevator and pressed the highest floor. I looked at her questioningly.
"Did I tell you that I own this building?" Alex said with a smirk.
I almost wanted to take Piper in the middle of the dance floor when she whispered in my ears but there are so many people here and they didn't went here for a show. It is a good thing that I listened to Nicky's advice to hold the event here so it will be convenient for some of my staffs who prepared the party. I lead her to the elevator and when she looks at me with a questioningly, I answered her with the obvious answer I could think of.
As soon as the elevator closed, I pinned Piper to the elevator and kissed her hard. I nibbled first her upper lips then when I felt that it is swollen already, I nibbled her lower lips. I could not get enough of her sweetness. I swiped her parted lips and asking for permission to enter her mouth. To purposely make our bodies get closer, I put Piper's arms to my neck and lifted her legs to wrap it to my waist.
"You don't know how much I like to feel your legs around me." I said when we parted for air. I didn't let her answer me because I am attacking her mouth again. She parted her lips to let me enter and I graciously take advantage of it. I explored the inside of her mouth with tongue and occasionally engaging her tongue with a few swipes. When I'm satisfied with exploring inside her mouth, I massaged her tongue using mine and swirled and swiped it to a dance that we both know. I could hear a moan from her and feel her shivering.
"Fuuuuuck! You are so goooood!" Piper said groaning when we parted again for air.
"No, you are just so sweet." I started to tongue fuck her again this time trying to taste Piper's lips whole.
The elevator opened to my private penthouse. It has only a small lobby dividing it from the elevator and the penthouse. I didn't put Piper down instead I kissed her hard some more and punched the number to my penthouse.
"I don't think I can't wait anymore, Alex." Piper said.
"Don't worry, my wife, I don't intend to keep you waiting." I said then lowered her to the grand piano I have in the living room.
"Ooooohhh…!" I moaned when I felt Alex massaging my ass. I could feel my hips are burning from too much grinding but I cannot stop because my body is begging another release for the fourth time. We are already in the couch and my feet is wobbly and gooey from all the cumming we are having. I could feel my thirst growing and throat feels a little sandy from all the moaning but I cannot resist a naked Alex walking when she offered to get us water. I literally jumped on her back and massaged her breast from the back. Alex without any hesitation pinned me down in the couch and let us say we fortotally forgot the water after that.
"Ss…top." I moaned. Alex stop grinding under me and I immediately miss her warmth.
"Ahhh…I…I…uhmm…mean dooont….stoooop…" I panted in her ears.
"Hmmmm…what do you really want,pipes?" Alex asked in her raspy, sexy voice.
"This…" I answered then make sure that our clits and breast are align then grinded hard. I connected our mouth and made sure to kiss her hard.
I'm not really a sexual person but when she is around I always craved to be connected to her. There is a constant need to feel her skin to mine even with just simple gestures like holding hands or her arms around my shoulders. I feel protected and safe at the same time whenever she is near. I just can't get enough of her like I'm starving for something.
For her?
As I near cumming for the fourtrth time there is only one thing running on my mind.
F.U.C.K. IM. DOOMED.
We didn't make it to the room anyway and I just got us some blanket from my room when we felt exhaustion from what we are doing. I could feel how Piper squished her way to my side and how protectively I'm hugging her. I could not deny anymore the attraction between us and I don't know why I feel happy about it. This is not part of the plan and I just want to take away Piper from her father who will be using her as a pawn in his plan for the company.
You are one confusing human being, Alex. You are not some superhero shit.
"Am I really just using her for my plan? Is this just a sexual tension between us?"
But the way we had sex is very different. It was the very first time that I felt she really need to connect to my partner. While tasting Piper, all I could think of is how I'm so thirsty for more. I was literally trembling when I entered Piper for the fourth time from anticipation. And for the love of sex, I came when Piper came and Piper was not even inside me during that time!
And oh remember the time when she fuck you with her clit? You came twice with how good she felt, right?
Oh. My. Goodness. I. Am. Literally. Fuck. Up.
