Chapter 52
FREYA
With a slow nod of head, Aiden gestured for me to go to him. The feminist in me had to look the other way when I was responding positively to being summoned. I looked back at Erica apologetically.
“Well I need to=”
“Yes of course.” She cut me off with a knowing smile. “Don’t let me keep you.”
“I’ll see you later”
Offering her one last parting smile I started moving in Aiden’s direction. Hands thrust in his pockets, he had moved away from the people he was earlier standing with
I was so busy looking at Aiden that I didn’t notice the man who came out of nowhere and collided with me. I gasped, horrified that my beautiful dress was ruined by the drink in his hand.
“Oh, I’m so sorry Miss” The man pulled out a handkerchief from his pocket. “Here let me.”
He didn’t wait for my permission and went straight ahead to dab at my chest with the handkerchief while putting another hand on my left breast. Î was so fucking stunned by the turn of events that I could spend the first few seconds staring dumbly. The second I felt him squeeze, 1 jerked back.
“Stop: What the fuck are you doing?” I snapped at him which pulled a few eyes on us. The middle aged, pot bellied pervert however seemed hardly
bothered by it
“I was just trying to help” He drawled with a creepy smile. 1 gritted my teeth in annoyance, wanting nothing more than to smack his face.
I tensed for a small second when a hand snaked around my waist before the familiar warmth of the touch brought me a sense of comfort. “What’s the matter, sweetheart?” Aiden came to stand right beside me. I watched as the creep lost his grin, his face turning a little pale “Mr. Knight.” He muntered on a swallow Aiden however hadn’t spared him a glance. His eyes were solely trained on me. “It’s nothing” I sighed, placing a reassuring hand on his arm. But on second thought. “Actually this pervert here groped me”
Something dangerous flashed in those beautiful brown eyes. They appeared a shade darker now. the now cowering man.
Purposefully slow, Aiden turned head towards
“Is that so!” Aiden asked, his cold stare
re fixed on the piece of shit. The low menacing tone of his words could give one literal chills,
“Mr. Knight, I assure you, that wasn’t what happened” The fucking audacity to lie right in my face even while he seemed about to piss his pants. Aiden’s lips w
were set in a thin line, his eyes narrowing at him.
“Are you calling my girlfriend a liar? The temperature seemed to have falle
fallen by some degrees as the ice in his words reverberated low,
If possible he paled further, resembling a piece of white paper. “No–no. Of course not, Mr. Knight.” He chuckled uncomfortably. “T–I’m just saying it was a misunderstanding”
Aiden didn’t engage him further. He removed his sharp eyes from his face to mine, Something close to affection filled them, the brown in his eyes appearing a shade warmer.
“Should we take a look at the display before the auction begins?” He didn’t bother dignifying that man with another word. Just a cold casual dismissal. Through my peripheral vision, I saw the creep stare between both of our faces.
“Yeals, sure” I mumbled, even though I was ready to put this night behind us. But this was important for Aiden and he hadn’t donated yet.
“Let’s go.” He whisked me away from that man standing there. Aiden appeared calm, way
y too calm about this. My gut told me this wasn’t the end of
Maybe it was because of t small of my back, or post gely touching my arm
the random man groping me, Aiden hadn’t let my side for the rest of the evening. He was constantly there, his hand at the 1/2

Chapter 52
I needed sex. With him. And I needed it yesterday. Quite literally. So him being all touchy and close wasn’t helping me. At all. By the end of the night my patience and control were hanging by a very very weak thread.
The ride back was silent. I was too wrapped up in my x–rated thoughts to think about the reason for Aiden’s silence. How long had it been? Months? God I couldn’t remember the last time that I had sex. By the time we reached the penthouse. I had reached peak frustration.
Aiden helped me out of the car and walked me inside.
“Gia’s sleeping in her room.” Carlos informed us once we reached the hall. I peeked inside Gia’s room to find her fast asleep, hugging the panda tightly to her chest.
“Where’s Andrea?” I asked about the baby sitter.
“I told her she could leave after Gia fell asleep”
That was fine I guess. Besides, keeping an eye on a sleeping child isn’t much work. I nodded in understanding
“Goodnight, Carlos
“Goodnight. Ms. Wilson.” He curtly i
ly nodded at Aiden before disappearing into his room, leaving the two
of us in the hall.
We walked together in silence till we were in front of his room. Mine was just around the corner. My mind was running wild with all the questions. Were we to sleep in the same room now! I mean after last night. But I wasn’t sure I would get through the night without wanting to jump his bones. Or I could just go back to my room and spend the night tossing and turning and picturing how good sex with him was
Ugh! It wouldn’t be this hard if he didn’t insist on that date first. Screw that.
I looked up to find Aiden staring at me intently. My face my eyes and something shifted in his. Lust filled them
probably gave

ay whatever thoughts were running through my head as one glance into
Before I could back pedal, I reached past him to open the door to his bedroom and walked right in. I had been there. Quite a few times. His room was all charcoal gray and dark tones and it smelled of him. His musk cologne that I have grown addicted to.
I turned back to find Aiden leaning against the door frame, his calculating gaze fixed on me. One long, deep breath and I blurted it.
done waiting. I want sex and I want it today.”
