Chapter Nine

Seto had cooled off, there was no reason for him to be mad or upset that she was seeing someone. After all she was just a clerk at the bookstore that wrote a couple books and was semi popular. She looked horrible in her colorful jersey sweats that didn't do anything for her figure. Yet she still managed to attract men and trouble, how she did it was beyond him. Once he got back home, he'd have Alisa clean something and then prep dinner. No, he thought against that, he at least owed her a dinner, she did dress up for the day and had put up with having to clean and cook.

Once she finished whatever cleaning he forced her to do and relaxed his tension, he would tell her the good news. He walked into the mansion and looked around the eerily quiet living room, dining room and kitchen. 'Alisa,' he called out to her as he searched the pantry, the back room and the patio. She hadn't runaway, had she? No, that wasn't possible, he had seen her purse on the counter.

'Where did she go,' she was a reader so maybe upstairs to the library. He decided to head up the stairs and go look for her there, but again nothing and as he looked down the right wing, he noticed that she wasn't in any of the rooms. He turned to the left and looked down the corridor in the direction of Mokuba's and his room. When he arrived Mokuba's car wasn't in the driveway so she could be there, unless she was snooping around in his room and plotting something.

His brother had said he got friend zoned, but did she actually mean it or was she toying with him? Considering how fickle she was, it was possible that she was trying to find out how to seduce his innocent brother. 'Alisa,' he threw open the door in order to catch her in the act and then punish her for her transgressions. He walked in and looked around the quiet and empty room. 'Where are you?'

He returned to the hallway and semi closed his brother's door, she wasn't there. Did she find the basement? If she did, she might have found the gaming room and was loitering around and not doing her job. He was about to turn around and head back downstairs when he noticed the door to his own room wide open. She wouldn't dare be in his room, unless she was cleaning something. She had no reason to be there, he walked over to his room and stormed inside about to give her the third degree. The third degree stopped when he walked inside the doorway and his throat dried up at the sight of her laying fast asleep on his bed. Her arms were wrapped around his pillow pulling it tight against her. Her dress had shifted and exposed her toned creamy white legs, but she still retained her modesty as it stopped mid-thigh. He swallowed hard as he walked over to her, she was in his bed, sleeping so peacefully and seductively.

Alisa wasn't trying to seduce Mokuba, he stood over her and looked down at her graceful and angelic sleeping face. She must be doing something to him, he couldn't stop himself from reaching out and touching her soft and succulent cheek. Just as he was about to touch it, she shifted, he was about to pull back when her hand reached out to and grabbed his sleeve pulled him forward. He toppled over her, trying to keep himself from crushing her as he braced himself on his knees and hands. 'Alisa,' he gently called out to her so that she wouldn't be startled. Knowing her, she'd call him a pervert that was trying to molest her.

Although right now it was tempting. She was sleeping face up and her flawless face was turned up towards him with plump red lips calling to him. He shouldn't be even thinking about it, however he kept leaning forward and taking in her serene appearance. 'Seto,' she called his name in soft and breathy voice.

'You're doing this on purpose,' he groaned as he rolled over and off of her and laid next to her in a huff. If he did anything to her, she'd be upset and it would be considered a crime in all places. He grabbed the pillow and placed it under his head. The calming aura from her was lulling him to sleep, it became worse when she slid up next to him and wrapped her arm around him. This wasn't good. Nevertheless, it was nice and comfortable. Seto wrapped his arm around her and felt an upward tug on his lips as he closed his eyes and fell asleep.

'Don't,' she moaned as she wanted to sway her hips faster, but he kept her hips fixed as he thrusted inside of her in a slow and steady. 'Stop teasing me,' she ordered as he filled her, and she felt herself mold around his member.

'Harder,' she whimpered as he stopped pressing against her g-spot.

He slipped out of her and looked down at her with his intense blue hues, his firm and toned body hovering over her, taunting her. He leaned over her and brushed her lips as he continued to tease her. Even when they were sleeping together, he was being a jerk. Well, she wasn't going to let him get away with it. She lifted her arms up and wrapped them around his neck and drew his head closer to hers. Her legs lifted around his wrist and she lifted her hips up so that she could rub her moist center against his stiff hot member. 'I want you deep inside me,' she cooed into his ear and nibbled it before kissing along his firm jawline.

'Don't you want to make a mess of me,' she nuzzled his nose with hers and smiled as he rubbed against her entrance. 'Ugh,' she cried out in pleasure as the head of his member hit and rubbed her sensitive bundle of nerves. Sending waves of pleasure up and down her body and make her hips stir more to cause the friction to continue to heighten.

'I am begging you,' she reached out a tentative hand between them, causing him to release his hold on her hips and keep her from grabbing his member and placing it at her entrance. 'Please,' she whispered in longing and as if to finally grant her wish, he let go of her hand and reached back to loosen her legs from around his waist so that he could pull back and better position himself.

Alisa lifted her sultry gaze to meet his as he pushed the head of his member inside her hot and hungry center trying to pull him in further. She was about to lift her hips up to finish what he started when he suddenly slammed into her all at once hitting her womb entrance and filling her up, 'Ahh,' she cried out in pleasure as he pulled out again and repeated the action of grinding deep inside her. Her mind was melting with each and every one of his deep and hard thrust inside of her. 'So good,' she panted as she began to feel the build-up of her release in the pit of her stomach. Just as she was about to feel the tingly sensation and bliss of reaching her climax, her eyes snapped open.

Her breathing a bit irregular as the vividness of the dream came flooding back to her and she remembered the feeling of delight and pleasure just moments before waking up. How she pleaded, begged and tried to seduce him to into filling her wanton body. She closed her eyes once again as she buried her face into his pillow that carried his scent. Thinking that of all the people, why did it have to be him? She wanted to beat his pillow up, thinking that it was because of it and his room that she had dreamed such a perverted dream. However, she froze when her noticed that the soft pillow she was holding was firm, solid, warm and raising up and down.

Timidly and with a sense of dread, she pulled back and lifted her gaze up to see Kaiba's sleeping face. Why was she sleeping next to him, she tried rolling away from him, but his arm held her in place flushed against him. 'Kaiba,' she called out to him as she shook him, 'wake up.'

'Ugh,' he groaned in annoyance as someone pressed against his chest and shook him. His free hand reached out and grabbed the pesky offending hand. Cobalt hues opened and turned to look down at the small wide-eyed female next to him, who's pretty mouth was set and the lines on her forehead deep. 'What,' he muttered his voice husky and deep with sleep.

'I should be asking you that,' she bit back at him as she tried to free her hand from his larger more masculine one. 'Let go.'

'It's my bed, my bedroom,' he let her hand go, 'you're the one that is invading my territory.'

'Yeah, well, if you let go of me, I can leave,' she grabbed the hand that held her waist and pressed her against him.

'You still haven't finished your work here,' his grip on her hip became firmer as she tried to free herself.

She shifted her gaze away from him and to the window on the wall behind him. She had slept for longer than intended and the sky outside was dark, 'The day is over and so is my contract,' Alisa pointed out at the night sky.

He threw a glance out the window and turned back to her turning his body towards her. 'It appears so,' he enjoyed the softness of her warm body pressed against him.

'Th-that's why you should let me go,' she slightly stuttered and tried to avoid his intense gaze. Their nearness brought memories of her latest dream and she felt her face bloom a dark shade of red as heat entered her cheeks.

'Why are you suddenly being so coy,' he asked, not minding her reaction to him.

'I am not, I need to go, Kaiba.'

'Kaiba,' he asked. 'If I recall, you were using my first name earlier.'

'I never,' she snapped and looked up at him, annoyed by his smug smile.

'You did, I imagine you were dreaming about me,' her face turned a darker shade of red as she looked up at him with her lips slightly open and alluringly sensual.

'I-I-I-I,' she looked away and cleared her throat. 'I was not and if I did call out your name it was because you did something stupid. Now before you get any weird ideas, release me.'

'Before that,' he leaned towards her and nuzzled her nose with his, trying to seduce her. 'I should show you my appreciation for your hard work today.'

Alisa's breath hitched as his obvious insinuation became clearer as his breath mingled with hers and he drew closer. 'If you don't want me to kiss you, you should stop me,' he warned her as his lips brushed against her.

Her brown hues were glazed, and her eye lids half closed as she waited for what seemed like eternity for him to fill the gap between them and as he did her eyes closed. Yet he never finished filling the space between as they heard, 'Seto, I am home. Where are you?'

Both pulled away from each other and scrambled off the bed, Mokuba had arrived and was looking for Kaiba. If he caught them together in bed almost about to kiss, he would get the wrong idea and it would make things awkward between them. She straightened her clothes, fixed her hair, slipped her shoes on and grabbed her brother's suit off the nightstand. 'Seto,' Mokuba arrived at the doorway and was surprised to see his brother and Alisa together in his room. 'Alisa? What are you going here?'

What was she supposed to do or say, she couldn't tell him that he had almost caught them in bed sleeping together or about to making out. 'She came over to get her brother's suit. Since she ruined mine last week with her bad habit of running into people.'

Alisa frizzled at his condescending tone but found the way out that she needed and turned to glare at him. 'I wouldn't run into people, if they didn't get in the way,' she snapped back and looked away from him. 'But as he said, I came to get my brother's suit back and return his,' she answered him.

'Oh, I see,' Mokuba nodded and walked over to her studying her in her new attire and couldn't stop himself from falling for her once again. If he thought she was breath taking before, he was blown away by her casual dress attire. 'You look beautiful,' he complimented her.

'Thank you,' she beamed at Mokuba. 'I actually over dressed for a meeting with a jerk this morning.'

Seto clutched his jaw as he tried to control his temper at her insult, he wasn't a jerk and why was she smiling at his brother. Was she really trying to tempt him after she had rejected him, especially after they had almost kissed not too long ago? 'Well, it's getting late, don't you think that it's time to go?'

Both turned to look at him as if he had grown two heads, 'You're right,' Alisa agreed after a silent moment of staring at him in disbelief at his brass comment of getting rid of her. 'It's late and I wouldn't want it to get any darker. Who knows what kind of trouble or creeps I can run into on the way?'

'If you're worried, why don't I give you a ride home? On the way we can stop and get dinner,' Mokuba nonchalantly invited her out.

'That would be nice,' she responded, 'I could use a bite to eat too.'

'Well, we should get going,' Mokuba told her, overjoyed that she agreed to go out with him. He had decided to give up, yes. However, unless he asked her, and she officially rejected him he wasn't going to give up.

'Right, I wouldn't want to intrude on your brother any longer,' she looked over at Kaiba and froze when she saw the look of fury in his eyes as he glared at her.

Mokuba saw the tension as her body went rigid as if she had been slapped across the face. He looked over at his brother, who's face looked enraged. 'Seto,' he called out timidly, afraid to incite his brother.

Kaiba turned his gaze towards his brother and saw the fear in his hues and realized that he needed to ease off. It seemed that the longer he spent around her the more crazed he became and lost his temper, especially if another male neared her. His brother being no exception. 'Sorry, I was thinking about something unpleasant that happened at work.'

'Oh,' Mokuba mumbled, but didn't really buy it seeing that Alisa was still tense. 'If that's so, you shouldn't read the file that board woman Theodora sent over.'

'Why is that?' Kaiba asked intrigued and needing to get his mind off the woman next to his brother.

'Another file of available candidates. She said that if the other candidates were unappealing these ones were a better selection,' Mokuba told him and saw his brother's face sour.

'What a bother,' he mumbled and even worse his brother had to tell him in front of her.

'But she's only doing it because you refuse to—-'

'We'll talk about this later,' Kaiba cut him off. 'You should get going, we wouldn't want Ms. Prism to be late getting home.'

'Right,' Mokuba's mood suddenly lightened at the thought of dinner with Alisa. 'Alisa,' he lightly grabbed her by the arm so that he could lead her out of the room. 'We should go?'

'Yeah, okay,' she agreed with him and stopped to look back at Kaiba. 'Thank you, for keeping my brother's suit safe and returning it to me. I hope you have a good night.'

Kaiba nodded, but his fist clutched as he watched both her and Mokuba leave. Mokuba over the moon happy about being close to the woman he liked. He'd have to talk to him and see what he was thinking now. He turned to look at his bed and remembered the warmth of her as she was pressed against him, her warm breath mingling with his as he was about to kiss her. He should have kissed her, he should have pulled her away from Mokuba, nonetheless stopped short because he also had to consider his brother's feels. Her feelings, she could just be swept up in the moment and taken in by him but not because she liked him. After all she had been hugging another man in the afternoon and he brought her food like a loyal boyfriend. Damnit, she turned his emotions upside down and filled his mind endlessly. He threw himself on the bed and buried his face in the pillow she had laid on hoping to catch her lingering scent.
