My CEO, My Temptation
Chapter 17

Jessica

I was supposed to have dinner with Tyler again, I haven’t had this much closeness with any man before. I should’ve kept my distance from him, but I couldn’t seem to do that.

So I decided to have another appointment with Dr. Sheridan after office hours, where we talked about Tyler. Again. And that was why I went back to the office thinking that I’d work and forget about having dinner with him. But he was there, and I couldn’t seem to refuse him.

“Anyway, Elsie mentioned that you’re trying to rock the boyfriend clothes look?”

“Elsie as in your ex?”

“Elsie as in my ex and still my PA,” he shrugged telling me that she’s good at what she does.

“I bet she is…”

I was annoyed that he was talking about his ex at our dinner and he noticed it.

“I was emphasizing about the boyfriend look, you wearing my shirt, and I think that’s hot.”

I know I look hot, Kayleigh was surprised seeing me wearing the shirt and won’t stop bugging me with the fact that she knows exactly that it’s a man’s shirt.

“Thanks,” I replied after drinking the white wine as we wait for our salmon steak.

“Nothing on the boyfriend?”

“What are we twelve? you’re a man, or do you prefer being called a boy?”

“Nope, man-friend is good.” He looked adorably defeated as he drinks his wine.

“I thought so too, and…how’s Larry doing back in my old office? anyone giving him any trouble?”

“Nope, nothing from his side, meaning everything should be going as scheduled…so, were you really going to stood me up and stay back at the office?”

“I had just gotten back from my appointment with Dr. Sheridan, my psychiatrist…”

“You talk about me?”

“We discussed about my relationship issues, and how I should proceed with you regarding intimacy and so on.”

I was feeling at ease talking about myself with Tyler, I had discussed this with my doctor and she told me to keep him close that maybe he’s what I need to take that step further and slowly heal my intimacy issue.

“And what did your doctor said?”

“She said to keep on seeing you,”

“I like her.” He gave me his smug smile making me laughed at him.

We headed back to my place an hour later and decided to have another round of drinks, which then lead to me cuddling in his arms while we watched the evening news.

Time passes like crazy when we’re busy with our daily lives. Tyler and I have been doing our thing for almost a month. We have been enjoying our closeness, he hasn’t been pushing me with s*x. And lately, both of us have been distant, mostly because we were suddenly busy with our schedules.

Larry has his PA working full-time for him, while Kayleigh was busy going back and forth from our old office to the Richardson building and assist me with my work. As for Tyler, he was doing another merger project abroad. It was supposed to be a fast take over, an easy merge, but since there was a legal matter the process was taking a lot longer than expected.

And on that same week, my parent’s house was going to be rent out. My realtor finally replace someone who wanted to rent it. That means I have to clear out my family’s personal belongings and put them into a storage unit. Luckily they wanted a fully furnish house so I don’t have to worry about moving the furniture.

“I’ll come by later, don’t worry.”

“No, seriously, Kay, you need to finish off with the seating chart. Then the caterer, you have a million things to do to make sure that the re-launch will go smoothly. We’ve been working on this for weeks, and I want it to be a success. The movers have boxed most of it anyway, it’ll take a couple of hours max.”

“But you will be alone, that house…”

“I will be just fine, I have you on speed dial.”

I was not looking forward to spending the night alone at my parents, I was hoping to finish before dark and come back again the next day.

“If you say so,”

“I’m saying so…” I hugged her and told her to go straight home after she finishes off with the chart.

It was after office hour and I was going to meet my realtor at my parents’ house for paperwork and packing up my dad’s home office. I’ve done everything else with Kayleigh days ago, and that afternoon I was left with the last task.

The home office, which I’ve been postponing until the last day. I was having mixed feelings about packing up dad’s work stuff. Aside from Troy who was using the office last time, but also because of the memory of my dad.

I didn’t realize that I fell asleep reading o

dad’s files until I woke up in darkness, cold sweat was trailing down my spine when my phone buzzed.

“Tyler?”

“I’m checking up on you, it’s late and your driver is still at your parents’.”

“Do… you need… the car, are you back in town?” my voice was a bit throaty and I jumped when I heard someone at the front door.

I was frozen in place and couldn’t get myself up to go to the door.

“… Jessica? I’m here, at your parents.”

“I… give me a moment,”

It felt like hours, but I finally made it to the door. He must’ve seen my pale expression when he pulled me in for a hug. His familiar woodsy scent soothed me, I remembered it just like yesterday.

“I called Kayleigh, and she told me you might still be here. Why are you doing this yourself?” he cupped my face looked at me.

“I shouldn’t, I know that, but I fell asleep…can we just get out of here?” I shivered when I thought I saw a shadow by the window, a man.

“Please,” I begged him and I felt him sweep me off my feet and quickly carry me out of the house.

He was putting me on his lap when we’re in the backseat of my car. He talked to my driver to get me back to his place. My body was cold when he took off his suit jacket and put it over me. The warmth of his body was still there, his scent and his strong arms that holds me made me shed my tears.

But Tyler just hold me, he rubbed my back and didn’t ask anything until we arrived at his apartment building. He hold my body, shielded me with his jacket until we reached his penthouse and he carry me to his bedroom and lay me on his bed.

He stripped me to my underwear, put on his t-shirt, and tucked me under the covers.

“Rest, I’m making you some hot chocolate and ordering some pizza.”

“You’re hungry,” I stated, finally feeling a bit better with myself.

“I’m a big boy.”

His words made me smile wider and he kissed my forehead before leaving me to the comfort of his bedroom. I’ve stayed overnight at his place a couple of times already, and somehow the familiarity was calming me down to the point that I was closing my eyes and falls asleep from all the adrenaline surge I had earlier.

“Jess, baby…”

Tyler woke me up when he said that I was tossing and turning in my sleep and I could feel my cheek was still damp from the tears that I didn’t even know I shed.

“Hold me…”

“Jessica, I’m here, baby,” he pulled me closer and I finally begged him. It has been too long, we have been busy for the last couple of weeks and I have been missing him.

“Tyler, I want you,” I kissed him, pulling him closer, wanting more of his affection.

“Jessica, are you sure,”

“Please…”

He took off the t-shirt and start kissing me again while I start taking off his clothes, wanting to feel his heated skin against mine.

Tyler slid down my panties when I started moaning his name louder, I could feel his hand slipped between my legs and started feeling my wetness and pleasure me just like he has many times before.

The desperation was catching up with me, and at that time I didn’t think, I didn’t let my mind wander to the what-ifs, that time I simply let go and let him take me higher than ever before until I finally climaxed and screamed his name intensely.

I was teary from my very first o****m and he was quick to hold me, kissed me, engulfed me in his arms while aligning his length to my pulsating desire.

“Tell me when you want me to stop.” His words were deep and breathless, his hands loosely holding my body, carefully hovering above me, making me feel the needs of our bodies towards each other.

Tyler reached out for a condom from his bedside drawer and sheathed himself. He was back and teases me with his e******n, his tip slowly pushes inside and I was parting my legs voluntarily.

He stretches me and I was welcoming him with my k****s, I wanted him, I needed him badly until he fully stretches me and moves slowly in and out of me.

“More…” I pleaded and take him lower and deepen our k**s.

“Jessica, baby, you feel so good.” He move to k**s my cheek and whispered sexily in my ear.

He moved sensually, erotically pleasing me until I feel the familiar sensation, I was smiling looking back at his handsome face, I was biting my l*p until I grabbed his arms and planted my nails deeper and we finally climaxed together.

I love you…

My true feelings were revealed as I whispered inside my mind. He slowly pulled out and discarded the condom. There were no words exchanged, I let him hold me while I rest on his still damp chest, my arm wrapped around his abdomen and he sweetly kissed the top of my head.
