Chapter 34: Waiting For You (Part 1)

One hour quickly passed by and Syaoran is deeply engrossed reviewing a document his assistant has sent him when he heard a light knock on the solid mahogany door of the Sakura's study.

"Syaoran? Are you in there"

A soft, meek voice floated from outside.

After a few seconds, the door was opened and a tall man shadowed over the petite girl.

"Are you angry?" Sakura was confused when she saw the man frowning down on her.

"Why did you went down here on your own? You should've called me in my mobile and waited for me to go get you upstairs. Are you feeling much better now?" Syaoran responded unhappily.

She closed the small gap between them and hugged the man's waist. "Hmmm. Feeling a thousand times better already, Xiao Xiao."

Syaoran's expression darkened.

"Don't call me that. You know how much I hated it when you call me that when we were kids."

Sakura gently rubbed her face on Syaoran's chest, liking the feel of the softness his white cotton shirt on her cheek. She sniffed his scent and inwardly sigh in content. Heavens know how grateful she is that he is in her arms right here, right at this moment.

Looking down at the suddenly silent girl who is acting like a spoiled cat, Syaoran's eyes softened and a gentle smile appeared on his face..

He wrapped his arms around Sakura's tiny waist and pressed her closer to his body. Placing his chin on top of her head, his senses were slowly filled with the sweet, fruity scent of her shampoo.

"You make me want to eat apples right now."

Sakura giggled when she heard Syaoran's low, muffled voice at the top of her head.

"Hmmm… you wanna eat?" she teased.

Syaoran growled. "Are you teasing me?" his voice became a bit hoarse from the burning passion starting to burn within him.

Slender arms tightened around his waist before he heard a shy voice answer him back. "...Yes."

A glint flashed in his eyes and he shut them tightly before leaning down to bury his face in the hollow of Sakura's neck. He slowly kissed her smooth, white, swan-like neck and sucked on it for a few minutes. When Sakura let out a moan, Syaoran opened his eyes and gently bit her skin.

"I'll get back to you later. Right now, I need to go to the company for an urgent matter."

Not hiding her disappointment, Sakura held both sides of Syaoran's face and made him look straight at her sad eyes. "Really?"

Syaoran felt something piercing his chest.

Man. Those eyes.

Sighing, he looked back deep into her eyes and nodded gently. "I received a call from Eriol and there are some major issues I need to look into and decide on before 5 this afternoon. I'm sorry honey." he leaned forward and kissed the tip of her nose.

"Oh". she looked down her toes, the emotions in her eyes were hidden by her thick, long lashes.

Syaoran kissed both her eyes and hugged her soft body.

"But I got someone to accompany you in my place while you wait for me for a few hours." he said in her ear as he nibbled her reddened earlobe.

"No one can be near as good as you." she pouted. "I'd rather have you stay with me, you know."

"Oh really?" he gently blew warm air in her ear.

Trying to ignore his teasing, Sakura turned her head in annoyance and pushed Syaoran's head away. "Hey, stop it if you can't finish it."

Syaoran inwardly groaned. This little tiger!

Syaoran always find an angry Sakura very similar to a young tiger cub who, even when angry and trying to be fierce while baring its tiny fangs and swiping its paws, still look very cute and absolutely adorable in his eyes.

"So you don't want to go shopping anymore?" he asked.

Looking up at him with now angry eyes, she nodded. "I'd rather stay home. I've lost the mood to shop. You've totally ruined my day!" she tried to get out of Syaoran's strong arms, but hey, even with her extraordinary strength for a female, she could never be stronger than "the Syaoran Li".

On the other hand, Syaoran watched her antics lazily.

"Alright then, I'll call that person up and cancel your trip."

He then picked up Sakura and carried her in his arms as he strolled over the chair behind the huge handsome mahogany desk inside the study. Placing the angry tiger in his arms, he tightened one arm around her waist and pressed the redial on the phone on the desk then put it on speaker.

"Hello." a beautiful musical voice resounded in the quiet room.

With widened eyes, Sakura leaned forward the phone and pressed the button to change it into video call.

A second passed and a delicate beautiful lady with sparkling deep purple eyes appeared in the screen in front of her. Wearing a lilac satin ribbon around her head that keeps her long satin-like black hair from touching her blemish-free face, she looks young and innocent despite her age.

"MOYO-CHAN!!!!" Sakura squealed as she almost leaped from Syaoran's lap.

"Hey, Sakura! I see that you and Syaoran are showing off your sexual escapades to me right now. So, it's inside the study by the desk this time, huh?" she snickered.

Sakura felt an intense blush rising from her neck to the tips of her hair.

"MOYO!!!!!!!Stop with your dirty thoughts!"

Syaoran grinned at Tomoyo and gave her a salute. "Hey, Daidouji. Sakura wants to cancel your date today. She said she'd rather stay alone at home."

Sakura's already big eyes widened by a notch more that Syaoran wondered if she could feel some sort of pain.

"ARE YOU HERE IN TOKYO?????" Sakura squealed as she clapped her hands together.

"Sweetheart, I'll stop jumping up and down if you don't want me to go crazy right now." Syaoran whispered in Sakura's ear as he tightened his hold on her waist to keep her from rubbing her soft little buttocks on his little buddy down there.

"Ooops. Sorry honey…" Sakura whispered back. She gave him a quick kiss before turning her attention back to Tomoyo.

Looking at the couple from the screen of her mobile, Tomoyo slyly winked and wiggled her perfectly shaped eyebrows at them in a knowing manner, making the already red-faced Sakura blush even harder.

Tomoyo laughed when Sakura covered her tiny palm-sized face with both hands as she try to calm herself down. She is so embarrassed to be seen like this by her cousin that she's debating whether to turn off the video right now or not.

When she heard the crisp laughter, she arrived at her decision.

"Hey, why did you turn off the video?"

"Because you won't stop teasing me! So hey, are you here in Tokyo?"

"Alright, alright, to answer your question, I'm in mid flight right now. I'll be arriving in Narita in an hour then I was planning to surprise you for a quick snack and do some shopping but hey, if you'd rather mope around your flat then I guess…"

"No, no, no! Of course I'll meet you!" Sakura interrupted her. "I'll see you after an hour and a half! Just send me a message where and I'll be there."

"I've already reserved you a secluded table at the Ritz at 3 pm. I've ordered your favorite afternoon tea." Syaoran murmured in her ear. "Then just bring Tomoyo to the Azenith to shop. Both places are near my office. I'll be more at ease knowing you're just where I can easily reach you." he continued to tell her while kissing the side of her neck in between pauses.

Sakura played with his shirt collar while nodding her head in agreement. "Your plan is just perfect. So we'll meet up immediately after your work's finished?" she whispered back

Before Syaoran could answer her, an irritated voice brought them back to reality.

"Hey you dimwit couple. I'm still here. I couldn't hear what Syaoran just said but you, little cousin! Your whisper isn't even deserving to be called a whisper, you know! So just tell me now where I'll meet you since i feel like you both had already decided on it!"

With a shy laugh, Sakura told her where and they quickly ended the call. With a smile still on her face, she faced Syaoran and she hugged his neck.

"Honey, I will still miss you so much even if it's Moyo chan who'll be accompanying me this afternoon."

Very much pleased with her sweet words and action, Syaoran hugged her back and placed a tender kiss on top her head. "I'll make it up to my baby tonight, I promise. Have fun with Tomoyo for me, okay? I don't want you to think of unnecessary things."

"Un. I will have fun! You don't have to worry about me!" she nodded obediently.

"Alright, I have to go and prepare for my meeting."

Placing one arm under her legs and the other arm supporting her upper body, Syaoran easily lifted her as he walk unhurriedly towards the door.

"Hey, put me down. I'll stay in the living room and watch some shows, anyway, I still have some time before leaving."

Like he didn't hear anything, Syaoran walked towards the stairs and carried her in the direction of the main bedroom.

"Xiao Xiao, I said put me down. I don't want to stay inside the room! I'll be bored to death!"

Syaoran opened the door of the bedroom and with a mischievous look, he threw her down the bed and quickly pounced at her. This caught her in a surprise that she didn't even had time to finish her scream when a warm mouth clamped on hers and kissed her fiercely.

Plundering deep, tasting every corner of her mouth, drinking in her sweetness and almost losing his sanity as he kept kissing her with so much passion that Sakura almost forgot to breathe through her nose so she tried, without success, to push Syaoran away.

"Breathe through your nose, silly."

"Oh." she wanted to speak some more but Syaoran resumed his fiery kiss almost as soon as he finished instructing her. Sakura closed her eyes and allowed herself to get lost in his deep kiss and she tightened her hold around his neck, pulling from time to time his soft hair.

With a low groan, Syaoran's hoarse voice sounded as he licked the sensitive spot behind her ear. "Because you promised to be obedient, I'll reward you first before I head off. Fifteen minutes, baby. Come for me as much as you want in fifteen minutes."

Sakura shivered as she felt Syaoran's hot mouth go further down…

--XoXoXoXo--

Exactly twenty minutes later, Syaoran kissed the soft, plump, lips that has gotten a deeper shade of red from all the biting his little girl made to keep herself from being too loud as he pleased her. Losing her strength for a while, she immediately fell asleep and is contentedly snuggling in his arms.

Syaoran removed his arm from under her head as gently as he could and placed a pillow underneath her head. He stood up from the bed and quickly walked towards the bathroom. Before taking a quick shower, he prepared a clean towel and a basin of warm water then started to clean up the sleeping Sakura. Then he kissed her nose and tucked her under the covers.

Fifteen minutes later, wearing only a short white cotton towel wrapped around his small waist while wiping off the excess water from his hair with another small towel, Syaoran emerged from the bathroom and turned toward the direction of Sakura's huge walk in closet, which is a joint room with the main bedroom.

Sakura slowly opened her eyes and looked in a daze to where the sound of an opening door came from.

With no strength yet to move even to just lift a finger, she watched as Syaoran walked out of the bath and head towards the other side of where she currently is.

A tall man with probably a height now of a hundred and ninety centimeters from the hundred and eighty five from when they met again three years back, Sakura felt her heart beat faster as she saw those long, slender yet perfectly muscled legs up to the thighs that are lightly tanned.

Maybe he had a soccer match a few days ago. Or had a swim?

Anyway, she loved his legs and her eyes lit up in anticipation as it moved towards his upper body.

Narrow hips, deep mermaid line, small yet manly waist, and those drool-worthy six-pack abdominal muscles.

She squinted her eyes just in time when Syaoran paused for a while as he rubbed his hair hard with a towel.

Is it six or did the heavens made him so perfect that he have eight??!?

Sakura rubbed her eyes in annoyance. Why can't she remember how many it is? Well, she chided herself, you kept closing your eyes when he pleasures you so how on earth would you even have time to appreciate the greek god-like body of the perfect man in front of you.

Or below you.

Aaaaaaah~~~~ Sakura blushed at her dirty thoughts. Man, being with Syaoran again has totally made her into a perverted woman. She buried her head under the covers, afraid that Syaoran would turn around and see her burning face and realize what she's been up to.

"Baby? Are you awake?"

Sakura froze and she quickly tried to stabilize her breathing and pretended to be asleep. After a few minutes, she heard the sliding door of the walk-in closet open and she breathed out in relief.

She closed her eyes and tried to calm herself down.

But the image of Syaoran's chest, with those perfect pectoral muscles that isn't bulging but instead still has a strong definition that makes her want to trace her fingers around it and pinch those two cute tiny yet hard nipples.

Oh and let's not forget those shoulders, down to his lean arms which she just loved to press whenever she can. When she strokes it, Syaoran would always have goosebumps and he will release a low growl in her ear and make her feel very much pleased.

Aaaaaaah~~~~ I think I'm crazy!

Sakura panicked as she threw off the covers and sat straight in the bed.

And exactly at this time, a door opened.

--XOxoxoXoXo--

From the beginning, Syaoran knew that Sakura was awake and is busy gawking at his body.

Slave to his wife, of course, he gave her what she wants and paused as much as he can, giving her the best angles of his almost naked body, without making her suspicious.

He even almost dropped the towel around his waist but since he doesn't have much time to spare anymore, decided against it with much regret.

But when he saw her cover her head with the covers, he got a bit worried if maybe she suddenly felt uncomfortable somewhere since he really did tire her out just a few minutes ago.

Thrice in 20 minutes, that's exhausting for his Sakura.

So when he nonchalantly asked her if she's awake and she pretended not to hear him, he assumed she just suddenly felt shy staring at him so he chuckled in his heart and went to get some clothes on.

I'll definitely do this again when I have all the time to tease her until she cries of shame.

Syaoran happily created a web of his evil plan as he dressed himself up.

—-xoXoXoxo—-

"Honey, why did you wake up so fast? Rest first, I'll call you when it's time for you to dress up. Also, I'll send a driver pick you up at 2:40. One of your four bodyguards will accompany you in the same car and the rest will follow behind in a separate car."

Syaoran reached her side and he leaned down to give her short yet intense kiss.

"Hmmm… my baby's taste is the sweetest. No food can ever be sweeter than you, baby." He murmured in her lips in between kisses.

"Mou~~~ Xiao Lang, it's late already. You need to leave now. You're right, I still feel sleepy. Wake me up at two alright?" Giving him a final goodbye kiss, with Syaoran's sandalwood scent invading her sense of smell, Sakura felt too relaxed and so she couldn't keep her eyes open anymore and she slowly drifted off to sleep.

—-xoXoXoxo—-

As Syaoran entered the black Maybach waiting for him on the driveway of Sakura's hotel, he pressed a number in his mobile and made a call.

"Is everything prepared?"

"Yes. Mrs. Xie has also just called me to give me an update from her side."

"Good. Tell Tomoyo to make sure that Sakura will be at the hotel by 7pm."

"Got it. Her private plane has actually landed 5 minutes ago and she'll go straight first to her shop to prepare."

"Alright. Thanks man."

"It's nothing." Eriol assured him in a good-natured way before ending the call.

Syaoran leaned back on his seat and watched as the tall buildings they passed becomes just a blur from their speed. If one will only look closely, one will see a rarely seen contented smile formed in the handsome man's face, and a much more rare gentleness in his eyes made his amber eyes appear a bit lighter than the usual.

After 20 minutes, the special-edition black Maybach stopped at a basement driveway of a well-known luxurious mall. The driver opened the door and a 190cm tall man wearing a custom-tailored gray suit and black shiny, expensive leather shoes stepped out of the car. As soon as he got out, three men of the same height as the "Boss" but of bulkier built and are wearing similar black tailored suit with black sunglasses appeared behind the "Boss".

The four men entered the building and walked directly towards a private elevator which leads to the sixth floor where the renowned luxury jewelry brand stores are located. As the four men emerged from the elevator, they were immediately greeted by 2 long rows of guards and mall employees. Everyone bent their waist and kept their head low as they welcomed the VIP.

At the very front is a middle-aged man wearing a navy suit and gold-rimmed glasses.

"Master Li, welcome! It is our honor for you to visit the Imperial Mall amongst all the Li's other malls. Let me serve you today as I aid in your search."

The man tried to maintain his calm despite his overwhelming excitement to have such a huge opportunity.

Syaoran glanced over the man and nodded. "Lead the way, Vice President Ang. You've been briefed of what I'm looking for."

The man nodded vigorously. "Yes, Master Li. We've also closed the whole floor, no one is to disturb the master as you look for the best. I've also instructed each store to put on display only the top collections that are worthy of the young Madame."

Syaoran gave a nod of approval before walking briskly to the nearest jewelry shop.

Now to buy his little tiger the best jewelries for her dowry.

Syaoran can't wait for tonight.
