Chapter 51 - Annual Time

Lucas has been waiting for Elena to come down. It's was already half an hour, that he has been waiting for her just to see a glimpse of her new look.

Even though, he already knew what she would be wearing, but still...that was only the trailer he got the other day. And now, he wanted to see her fully new look.

Talking out his mobile for the sixth time, he called her.

"Sunshine how much more time? "he said

Lucas was losing his patience standing outside her house and waiting for her to come down. He just wanted to see her and hug her too his content.

"Five minutes more Lucas" came her voice.

"How many five more minutes sunshine. It's already half and hour but still you are not in front of me. I want you down now...please... " he whined like a child can't taking it anymore.

"Coming.. coming just five minutes okay! " she said and was about to cut when she heard him say, that made her open her mouth wide open " If you don't come down in next five minutes... I will come in" he said and cut the call not waiting for her reply. 

Elena who has been sitting ready from the last one hour even before Lucas came. She was sitting on her bed and tapping her foot in nervousness and biting her lips thinking how to face him.

She was feeling nervous, as this was the first time of her going out to any business party, that too with Lucas, and having so many influential around. But more than that, she was feeling shy thinking if she was looking good enough to walk with Lucas into the grand party. 

Earlier, she didn't think about her look but now, she thought about impressing him by applying makeup and looking good at least in front of Lucas.The rest didn't bothered her. 

Blowing air from her mouth, she calm her nervous heart and stood up looking one last time in the mirror before going out.

Lucas was playing with the phones in his hand. She said five minutes and the five minutes had already passed and now he only had one thing to do just barg in and see her.

Adjusting his suit he turn around to walk in, but stop in his track when he saw his angel coming to his view.

She was looking like a walking time bomb ready to explode his heart by her s.e.x.y look.

Though he had seen her in the dress earlier, but today her light makeup added more color to her beauty. She was the epitome of pure innocent beauty. 

Gasping like a fish who was waiting to breathe air ,he opened his mouth as he saw her walking to him.

His eyes were open wide when she smiled at him ,which made his heart dance in excitement. But then his happiness didn't last long when his eyes travelled to her long legs. He saw her walking like a runway model were her legs were more eyes catching that her upper body. 

"How will I stopped unwanted eyes to watch her" he said in his mind.

"No... no she is mine. I will pluck everyone's eye which will glance at her" he said inwardly and went to her.He held her shoulder in a protective manner and kept looking at her. 

Scanning her from head to toe he kept memorizing her beauty in his mind, "She was his women... " he reminded himself in his mind and smiled at her.

"You look beautiful " he could help but blunted out.She was the most beautiful women he had seen and being a flirty guy he couldn't help but spoke what he felt. 

Elena,when first saw him acting all weird and making faces while talking to himself thought, that she didn't look nice at all. She was about to retreat back, when he came and held her showing his beautiful smile which made her doubts vanish in air.

"How do I.... hmm... " her words died inside her mouth when he moved and kissed her lips tasting it in hunger. 

Lucas bit her lips, making her open her mouth. As soon as she gave access to him, he didn't wait and entered her mouth tasting every corner of it.Her mouth tasted like heaven. 

Elena gave in to his kiss and followed his actions, kissing him back and devouring his mouth the same way he did. They kept kissing like there was no tomorrow and their life depended on the mere kiss. 

Gasping for air, they pulled back breathing deeply and filling their lungs with oxygen.

Lucas caressed her lips with his thumb, tracing it with care. Cleaning the lipstick that was spread on the side of her lips, he made it it look better than how it was just a second ago.

Elena was dreamily looking into his eye,still not coming out from the thought of their kiss. This was her first time attempting something like this and she like it without any regret. 

"I will have to chase away every man who will look at you sunshine" he said and moved back watching her one last time before opening the car door and making her sit.

Walking to the other side he got in and asked the driver to drive to the venue.

Samantha was packing their stuff.Ethan's mother had given so many home made cookies for her and him.

She wanted them to stay more, but they had to go today as they couldn't neglect their work. 

Getting inside the room Ethan came and hugged her back.Samantha stopped her work and leaned back resting her head on his chest. 

"Are you not happy?" he asked kissing her nape. 

"I wish we could stay for more days" she released his hold and sat down on the bed upset. 

"We will come next time again" he pinched her cheeks lightly and sat next to her.

"Promise? " she forward her pinky finger asking him to take it.

"Promise... " He took her pinky finger, assuring her words. 

"By the way Susan aunty knows about us" she said looking at him.

Ethan who smirked and leaned down with his elbow support smiled looking at her. First Samantha didn't get his actions, but his wreck smile made her gasp. 

"You already told her" she widen her eyes in surprise to which he nodded his head in no.

"Then how?" She inquired.

Here she was trying to hide it from him about not letting him know that his mother was already aware of their relationship. But maybe he could knew his mom more than she knew him. 

"What do you think? We doing all these lovely-dovey thing behind this door...and she like a saint giving us some time alone. Do you still think we can fool her telling her that we're friend!" he pulled down, her resting her head on his chest and caressing her back.

"Oh... I should have guessed that" she said snuggling to his chest.

"My mother is smart and she can read me like open book" he said and closed his eyes.

"You know Sam, she had work hard all her life, raising me alone after my father's death. And me....just because of my problem neglected her isolating myself in that house" he sigh as he was controlling himself from tearing up.

Ethan knew he had acted selfish and just thought about himself ,forgetting that he had a mother who loved him more than anything in this world and friends that cared for him. 

"But you realized it right and... she is not angry with you. Mothers are loving creatures whom god have send down to give us unconditional love. So.... " she raised her head and pecked his cheek, " Don't forget her or I will kick your ass and get you here" she said in stern voice.

Ethan was surprised by her words, this girl was just too good and so understanding. 

"Okay mam.." Ethan raised his hand in defeat and again pulled her down.

He was getting to know her everyday. This girl whom he saw only as naive girl turn out to be a smart person. And now she understood him so well without him giving any details. 

After spending some time alone, they took their luggage out and bid their goodbye to Susan telling her to come and visit them.

Susan had already starting loving Sam and she really wanted her to be her daughter in law.

Getting through the private entrance Lucas and Elena went inside the hotel where the party was going on.

He made sure to avoid the paparazzi, not letting them to click their picture and to disturb Elena's peaceful life.He had asked his bodyguard to cover them up without being snapped. 

Lucas wanted to make it official when she was ready and if she never wanted to make it public and just keep private, then he would respect her. Her words were his priority. 

Inside the big hall, Lucas kept Elena by his side as she was his assistant, who had come along with him replacing Ron.

She needed to meet all the business partner he had been working and with whom he shared closed business relation. 

Lucas was busy introducing Elena to his associates, when Mr Knight came and greeted Lucas and chatted with him.

"Mr Thomson still needs time to accept my proposal" he said and took a sip from his champagne. 

Lucas didn't trusted this man and wanted to know the real motive of him wanting to join hands with him.

He had asked Ron to inquirre about it, but he didn't find a single error which made him doubt about him. But still, his instinct said not to let his gaurds down.

In this business world no one should believe anyone other than themselves. 

"I'm still thinking about it Mr Knight" he said indicating him to stop pestering him about the deal. 

After talking a while, Mr Knight left both of them alone not wanting to cling on the same topic and let him doubt him.

Elena excused herself as she wanted to use the restroom.

Leaving the party hall,she went up when she collided with the person she never wanted to meet. 

"Oh I'm so sorry.. I di- " her word stopped looking at the man in front of her and her face turn sour. 

"Miss Carter.. we meet again" Mark said mocking her.

Elena who didn't wanted to talk with him, tried to walk pass by him, but he held her wrist twisting it and pullinther back. 

" Leave me...." she said gritting her teeth in anger.

Elena didn't wanted to show that his touch was making her feel disgust. She was here for work, but this man was again trying to cross his limits. 

She didn't wanted to create a scene and she knew Lucas was here with her, so she tried to let go of this banana like face to be punched by her iron like hands.

Pulling her hand out from his grip, she looked at him in anger and walked past him without sparing a single glance. 

"Hmm... angry cat.... I want to taste you" he said and went down to meet his business associates.
