Chapter 239 - You have no idea how much I missed you…

Preethi was getting really pissed at that moment. So much so that she wanted to bite him or something until she could wipe out that gloating smile off of his face.

Only she knew how much disappointed she felt every single day when she came out of her work… she couldn't help herself but hope that Adam will be there in spite of knowing it was not going to be so.

In the past months, she had really gotten used to seeing him outside of her work. No matter in what ungodly hours her shift ended, he would just be there… patiently waiting for her. Somehow, seeing him just made everything okay.

And after getting used to that, she couldn't survive these past two weeks. And it invariably affected her sleep too. Normally, she could crash and get up whenever or wherever. But she couldn't sleep peacefully even in bed in these two weeks which affected her mood largely.

So, she had been very grumpy. Especially given how Akil will end up saying how he had played games with Adam online or chatted with him online…

"You… you have time to play games and come to attend a birthday party… but you can't come and pick me up from work one day ah? You are the one who said you loved me… Are they just flowery words? I am just going to go home tonight… you to hug your files!" Preethi whined some more before trying to get out of his laps.

When Adam held her in place, she started struggling.

"You let me go. You are the one who kept asking me to sleep right? So, I am going to go sleep now… I am very tired!" Preethi said pettily and refused to stay still.

That was until Adam stood up with her still in his hand. Instinctively Preethi circled her arms around his heck securely fearing of falling down.

"Adam, what are you doing? Let me down!" Preethi exclaimed instinctively but seeing him walk towards the stairs, she couldn't help roll her eyes and say sulkily, "Let me down. I can walk to the bed myself!"

Adam did not give heed to her. He simply took her to his room and crashed her on the soft mattress.

Before Preethi could even get a single word out, her voice was swallowed by his as he crashed his own against her for a kiss.

The kiss at first was actually soft, sweet, and very brief.

As their lips parted, Adam did not get up but hovered over her and whispered against her ears, "You have no idea how much I missed you… " before dipping back in for another brief gentle kiss.

He then pulled up and looked straight into her eyes and said, "I was just trying to be considerate since you look exhausted." He explained softly.

At last, Preethi's eyes softened from her sulking self. She took her hands and ran them gently over his cheeks as she said, "I know… I do understand but I wish you wouldn't hold back on my account… It sucks not to know how you really feel or want."

Adam's eyes stayed on her for a few extended seconds before he went ahead and kissed her all over again. But this time around there was no gentleness. There was a slight impatience as he plunged right in and sucked the breath out of her literally.

He poured every unspoken word and unexpressed emotions through the kiss as he pulled Preethi impossibly closer to him. His lips were passionate as they moved against hers while he circled his hands around her waist their bodies close in an iron grip.

Preethi did not even know what hit her as she tried to keep up with his pace.

They had never been this intimate before… not that they avoided it purposely but they never really had the chance. Between both their works and Akil, they never really got time or space to think about these things. So, Preethi was slightly taken by surprise by how desperate his kiss was.

She, at last, opened her mouth gasping for air but Adam took the opportunity to actually plunge his tongue in deepening the kiss further. All she could do was let out a whimper and accommodate to his lips.

Adam let go of her lips only when she started struggling for air but even then his lips never left her skin as he kissed her jaws and every part of her face.

Their intense make-out session went on for god knows how long before Adam pulled away. Both their clothes were wrinkled while Preethi's t-shirt was pulled up revealing her skin underneath. Their heavy breathing filled the air.

Adam did not completely pull away though. He buried his face on the seems of her neck and whispered in a husky voice, "This and more is going to happen if I am not going to hold back each and every time I see you… So, it's better to think about the consequences before you carelessly ask for something." Even though he was warning her, in his voice it sounded so s.e.xy right that moment.

Even though she was yet to recover her breathing and was still slightly dazed, his warning still rang into her ears like a damn bell awakening all her senses. Her eyes slightly widened in surprise.

So far, Adam had always been very calm and composed. She never saw him lose his cool not even when he proposed to her. So, she was really surprised that he actually had such a side to him.

But before she could make her brain work up a response to that, Adam completely pulled away from her and said, "I need a shower…"

Adam ran his hands through his already messed up hair and walked towards the bath.

Preethi's lips actually twitched. She did not know what it was but a really accomplished feeling spread through her along with a sense of warmth. It felt really good to be desired by your partner like this… She had never experienced this feeling before. She had never been at the receiving end of such an uncompromising passion.

A content smile spread through her face as she snuggled into the bed and drifted off to sleep.

After what felt like forever, she heard the shower stop and she vaguely felt a feather-light touch over her forehead.
