Chapter 68 - Hickey

CHAPTER 68

Xander just did not know how to take no for an answer and so he kissed her every minute he got when they took their stroll on the island.

On the island, she noticed they passed by a small volcano and was fascinated by it. Watching her wondering eyes, Xander smiled to himself at her eagerness before answering her unspoken question.

"It holds secrets left untold and a unique feeling just being near it. Dangerous but I guess the island is blessed to have it."

Jade only nodded at him in understanding. She was about asking why it was there but here is nature and a wonder in general.

She silently pulled back, wanting to sit back up and away from him but the moment she stood uo, Xander sat up and pulled her by the waist from behind, making her fall on him so she was sitting on his thighs.

She jumped slightly when something poked at her butt but his firm grip around her waist did not let her do so and instead brought her to settle on it.

Her lips cured into an O shape as realization kicked in at what had poked her but before she could register what was going on further, Xander nudged his face deep in her nape and began to kiss softly at first before sucking on the exposed flesh gently.

Jade did not know when she let out a soft moan in response to his treatment and that had only encouraged Xander to go on further.

"Aahh~" She let another moan when his hand on her waist moved up to cup her breasts in each hand, leaving her mouth opened and wide eyed at the strange feeling that was happening.

He squeezed down on her gently and thrust his hips upwards a bit, giving her double stimulation at the same time.

Jade did not know what was going on as this was the first time she had a guy touch her body like this. Enjoying her moans, Xander pulled back his hands a bit and bit on her neck before turning her face to the side to press kisses on it.

This was the time Jade had been waiting for, a chance to escape the naughty shameless CEO.

"Time to stop, Xander." Jade whispered to his face, letting her eyes drop close as he tasted her skin again, licking near her ear lobe.

"Please." Hearing her just almost moan his name like that left the budge in his pants straining for more contact but he finally found a way to tame his beast and stopped.

"I'm sorry." Giving her one last kiss to the lips, he released his grip around her and slowly helped her up before adjusting his trousers to help hide the budge in his pants.

"No worries. It is just what your shamelessness caused hehhee…" she giggled at his predicament.

"Someone seemed to be loving that shamelessness a minute ago."

Jade shook her head at how naughty he could be and went to sit down on her seat and fastened her belt. "Well if you had not been so… arrghh never mind that."

"If I hadn't been so loving and paying tender attentions to your body?" he raised his brows at her, hoping for how miserably she wanted to deny the fact that she loved all he did to her.

"I… I – I." But Jade could not as she found herself blushing from the embarrassing thing she did.

"I thought so, we are both naughty CEOs."

"Don't lump me in with you."

"Try me. Hahhaa."

Listening to him laugh, Jade could not help but imagining just how much he had warmed up her heart and broken her defenses.

'In as much as I like you too, I can't bring myself to saying it. I hope I can love you and focus on my mission but that doesn't seem possible and I must choose one.' Jade thought.

Xander who was oblivious to what was going on in her mind only smiled back at her lovingly before shifting his gaze somewhere else to distract his thoughts from her and her sexy curve.

He wouldn't know what he would be doing if he did not stop staring at her. This was best and safe.

That was how they enjoyed their remaining tour in silence till they returned back to the lounge on the island and went to have their lunch.

Unknown to Jade, where Xander had kissed at her nape had left a hickey on for display, causing the waitresses present to blush at her as they attended to their needs.

It was not until Macy, Jay, Sky and Jenny came over to join them at the big table that Jade got to know what was going on.

She had found it weird that any of the waitresses who passed or attended to them would smile and turn away their faces to hide their flushed cheeks.

Unlike Jade, Xander was pretty much aware of what was going on but he refused to speak up as he knew Jade would be completely mad at him or even do worse and kill him.

On the other hand, he was more than happy that he left his mark on her and that to him mattered the most.

At least any other guy on the island would know best to keep off and not come near his tigress.

"Hello Macy," Jade greeted once her friend was seated. "Hello Jay, Sky, Jenny."

"Hi Quinn," they chorused except for Macy who was left speechless b the hickey design on her friend's skin.

"Macy?" Jade spoke again but Macy was too zoomed in to even hear her friend and everyone noticed it. Trying to find out what had got the talkative Macy tongue tied, the other followed the line of her gaze and their eyes came to land on Jade's neck.

"Oh."

"Wow!"

"That was..."

"Oh my!" All three of them had different words of exclamation when they saw the hickey and instinctively turned their heads to the side to face the culprit.

And there he sat smiling sweet nothings at himself, happy that they were admiring his work.

Jenny nudged Sky in his stomach as she wordlessly told him about the situation and Sky nodded at her in return.

Jade was left confused by the stares they were giving her and she felt perhaps her flushed face had still not calmed down and that was why they were staring.

Jay on the other hand, let his eyes drop from Xander's face to his crotch and he noticed the bulge there. Xander who had been watching them intently, caught Jay staring.

"Why you naughty…" He said in Jay's mind, making the latter to laugh heartedly.

"I am guessing you did not do it."

"How was I to do so when I was in the sky with her."

"Hehhee, the almighty Lord Xan got a hard on with no hope of calming down. Pff, pretty job on her neck though." Jay complimented him through their mind link.

"I live to please," Xander remarked as a wide grin appeared on his face.

"What the hell is going on?" Jade finally let her outburst take over. She was tired of the knowing gazes she was getting and the stupid smile on both Xander and Jay's faces.

Everyone broke out from whatever it was that they were doing and smiled sweetly at her.

"Hey, it is not funny. Why are you all looking at me like that?" It is not that I got sauce on my body or something, even at that can you nit tell me what it is?"

She was not smiling one bit at them and let them see her anger very well.

"Or something," Jay replied her sweetly, his eyes brimming with untold joy at her.

"Fuck it guys, just tell me already. I hate that I am being left out and the object of attraction."

It was Macy who finally broke her out of her mystery after she broke out of her own shock. Never would she had expected her friend would get down on it in the sky and the thought left her speechless and dazed.

"There,."

"Huh?" Jade did not understand what she was talking about. "Where?"

"On your neck," Macy raised her right hand and pointed to the direction the hickey was.

"I am not feeling..." Jade let her hands wander on her skin till she came to her nape where still felt slightly hot and realization set in.

"You have a hickey on your neck, a very big one at that," Macy finished.

Who had sent her? Her words became her friend's doom. Instinctively, Jade picked up her phone to check and although it was burry, she got a very good idea of what they saw.

As if on cue, Xander looked at her and so did she. "I am sorry, it wasn't…"

Her eyes widened and the next they all knew, she screamed and stood up instantly.

"Quinn, wait."

She waited nothing and immediately took to her heels, running away.
