Chapter 26: Though Shall Not Covet (1,7K)

Christian's Pov

You have used me to the good stuff. Now, I have to go to bed alone, and I don't like it one bit. ~ Ana

I smile as I watch at Ana's selfie, pouting at the camera as she shows me that she is in fact alone in her bed, wrapped in the blanket she used yesterday night to shield me from her touch.

If I didn't have an early meeting tomorrow at seven sharp, I would be on my way to her place already, just so I could erase that pout with my lips and keep her used to the good stuff. I mean, if I am the good stuff, I am going to get her hooked on me. I am going to be her heroine.

But then again, she could be sleeping at my place. She can totally sleep here. It's not like I don't have the place, or the desire to have her by my side. In fact, before answering her, I quickly send an email to my personal shopper, Caroline Acton, and tell her that I need by Wednesday night a full feminine wardrobe, as well as all the 'necessities' Ana mentioned yesterday night.

I send all of Ana's information, already knowing her size because roaming countless times her body with my hands has given me a pretty good idea of her size. Plus, I know what I'd like to get her out of. I'm pretty sure silk would feel amazing slipping out of her skin. I'll also need to tell Gail to always have Ana's favourite food at the ready.

Like that Ana won't have anything to argue if I invite her back to my place. Plus, I have this killer view she loves. And my bed is bigger than hers. And we're sure to not be interrupted by anyone, either. Because I will not hesitate to put Gail or Taylor in the streets if they dare interrupt my precious time with Ana. I don't care if the building is burning.

You still have the blanket. So you're not completely alone. Christian

I'm almost tempted to just bail on the meeting and let Ros handle it on her own. What's the point of all those sleepless nights I had building this company if I can't enjoy my woman whenever I want to? But this is my passion project, Ros doesn't know as much as me and I would be royally pissed if it didn't work just because I had decided to flank a meeting at the last second.

Yes. And I've been a total creep with it. All snuggled up in it so it feels like I'm back in your arms. Plus, it smells like you too. ~ Ana

Okay, I need to see her. If I can't be physically with her, I am at least going to do more than just text her. For Fuck's sake. She should be here with me, and not all the way to her apartment. If I were listening to myself, right now. She would move in before the next hour would be over. But I'm sure that if I evoke the idea right now, she will object. Ana likes to use rationalisation and logic a tad too much.

So I FaceTime her, and she answers on the first ring, though her light is off and I only see her face in the darkness thanks to the light from the screen. And even like that, badly pixelated, still like that's she is bloody gorgeous.

I smile at her and she smiles back, showing me a little bit of the blanket and making me chuckle as I greet her, "I just wanted to see my little creep before I went to bed."

"Better a creep than a criminal," she laughs, and I join her, laying down in my own bed and switching off my lights. Thank God i was working in bed, and already was all ready for bed, just touching up on a few last-minute things.

"You know, my foot is always open for you, babe," i let her know. After all, when she realised that she would sleep alone, she could have called me and I would have had Taylor go to her place to fetch her. As if I would ever close my door to her.

"I know," she says with a smile, and so I make it clear,

"So if you miss me, you can always come."

She gives me a small smile, but I can tell it is just politeness, which makes me frown. She does know that I would never close my door to her, right?

"Your place is just so …" she looks for her words, and so I help her,

"Amazing?"

"Big. Huge even. I always get lost when I use to loo on Friday nights."

"Even more reason for you to come even more often. So you never get lost anymore."

"Plus, it seems to be your special place. I mean, it looks like you're always the one going to visit your family member, not the other way around. I don't want to impose, Christian."

Well, she's not wrong there. Though they are more than welcome, my family know I like to keep to myself in my off time, so they don't bother me. But then again, it's because I visit them often, and the rare times they come to Escala, it's because I've asked them to come.

But Ana would never feel like she's imposing. On the contrary. She's more than welcome, she's wanted.

"It can be our special place," I tell her, truly hoping that she understands my innuendo. I really wouldn't mind if she came to live here with me. As in we would get to go to sleep in each other's arms every single night to come.

She thinks about it, and finally agrees, "What about this weekend as a test run of the maze that is your ridiculously big place?"

Of course, she would pick this weekend of all day! What is wrong with tomorrow?

"I'm not here this weekend. I have to go to Montreal."

"Haha. Mr CEO working on weekends, I see? Good, it's time for the big executives to know what hard work actually means."

I grimace because Ana loves teasing me about me being the boss, and all I can think of is the fact that I could have spent the whole weekend with myth girlfriend in my home, helping her get acquainted with my flat, and work is getting in the way. But then again,

"You know, your presence would make it so much more bearable."

"Oh … can I give you an answer tomorrow about that?"

I narrow my eyes at her, "Weren't you prepared to spend the weekend at my place? What difference does it make whether it is in the US or in Canada?"

"Jose is supposed to be coming to Seattle this weekend."

What does this fucker have to do with my girlfriend spending the weekend with me or not?

"My question remains," I placidly say, though I am anything but calm. I haven't forgotten how Elliott said that Ana and Jose slept in the same bed the last time he came and that there was obvious chemistry between them! Yes, Martha said that if they were supposed to be more, they would have tried long ago, but Martha isn't always right.

"Well, I did promise him a place to crash. If I was at your place, I could always quickly pop to give him my key. It will be a tad harder to do so in Montreal. So I just need to know if he can come Thursday night if he's coming this weekend."

I don't say anything, despite the fact that I strongly dislike this idea. I don't like the idea that my girlfriend will spend the whole night with a man with whom she has a strong chemistry and an even stronger connection. I am definitely going to spend Thursday night at her place. Or even better, she will spend it at mine!

"Let me know, then. Just so I can tell the pilot how many passengers will be there."

"I do want to spend this weekend with you, Christian," she assures me and I smile at her. She doesn't seem convinced, though. "I'll tell him that he has to get here on Thursday, and then we will spend the weekend together, drinking maple syrup by the gallon."

I nod and wish her a good night, not giving her time to add anything as I tell her that I have an early meeting in the morning, but of course, sleep escapes me and so I go to my training room to box for the next couple of hours. I don't know why I am getting over a guy I have never met, but it still bugs me.

Especially when Ana sees nothing wrong with hanging out with the guy when she is already with me. Is this why she doesn't mind us not touching and she's being so patient? Because she has another guy on the side and she expects me to be understanding if I find out because my touch issues are putting a halt in our relationship?
