Chapter 104 - Like A King

It was a long night for Adrian, basking in happiness, feeling giddy all over the grown man was grinning like a fool.

Sitting on the comfortable couch in his den, Adrian was casually sipping his scotch on the rocks.

Savoring the bitter sweet taste in his mouth and a satisfied smile on his face, Adrian closed his blue eyes, his thoughts drifting back to the day that changed everything in their short lived romance.

The sun was at it's peak, bright rays of sunshine along with the cool breeze invaded the large messy presidential suite, with the cream colored curtains carrying the scent of the previous night's deed.

On the luxurious bed, covered with a fluffy white comforter laid a man baring his uncovered shoulders, looking like an Adonis with the late morning sun showering him in a ray of light.

The man stirred slowly, his arms trying to pull a figure into his embrace alas, he could only grasp air.

"Yinyin..", his hoarse voice broke the dead silence as well as his harmonies mood when he realized something.

Panicked, Adrian sat up straight without a care to cover his nakedness and jumped out of the bed.

Adrian looked around, every nook and cranny of the room but there was no sign of Su Yin,

"All her things are here but where is she..!", Adrian could see her clothes strewn on the floor as well as her makeup arranged neatly on the dresser.

Adrian call her multiple times but Su Yin's phone was out of reach and with each passing second Adrian was losing his breath.

"Shit! I'm gonna kill those scums if it's their doing..", fuming Adrian almost crushed the cellphone, a crack forming on it's screen.

Picking up the almost ripped white shirt and boxers off the floor Adrian dashed inside the bathroom, he was shell shocked looking into the mirror.

"This.. Yinyin?", Adrian gulped heavily thinking back to the night, gradually a conceited smile breaking on his thin lips.

Adrian's body was covered with ambiguous marks, bites, scratches, kiss marks painted with Su Yin's red lipstick. It was the much needed proof for him to believe that last night wasn't a dream nor a figment of his imagination.

Adrian could still feel the passion from last night, the way his Yinyin had ferociously competed with him to gain dominance.

Her soft touch, her smooth skin, her plump lips on his, the undying spirit of their love and passion once again ignited his desires, with a wicked grin he suppressed his urges. Adrian had to first find Su Yin to quench his undying thirst for her.

After his desire subsided, feeling relieved Adrian sighed deeply, he slowly raised his blue eyes and was shocked to see something he'd never imagine.

There was a glaring red slap imprint on his smooth and fair cheeks, stupefied Adrian softly grazed his swollen cheek,

"Damn! It's painful..", Adrian couldn't understand, after a brief moment his mouth fell as he perceived the truth of the incident.

It's been one year, since then Adrian had been searching for Su Yin. Trying everything in his power to bring her back to his side alas, the lady is too stubborn.

Adrian had a faint recollection of that night's events, though he was drunk it was very clear to him that Su Yin was happy.

She had actively engaged in their passionate moments contributing with equal fervor, she had even initiated a few things that made him blush.

Then what went wrong? What did he do that made Su Yin upset and she disappeared from his life as though she was never a part of it? Adrian's head was filled with these mindboggling questions that he'd never managed to find answers till date.

The next morning was all about business, Ethan sat in his office oozing class and sophistication, dressed in light gray suit with a crisp white shirt he looked dapper making any girl's heart race faster, but not Sera who sat before him wearing an amicable on her harmless visage.

Power dressed in a sheer white blouse underneath a light blue coat with matching slacks and white prada heels, Sera looked professional and beyond beautiful.

If not for the unfortunate timing Ethan would've spared some effort to appreciate Sera's beauty, with a constipated look on his face, Ethan sat stiffly looking at her smiling face.

Ethan, the man of few words was buckling down to fight his demons by lending a helping hand to Sera.

"Mr Lee? Are you okay?", Sera's sunshine smile soon turned into a wry one looking at Ethan's cold face.

"I apologize Miss Lu, Let's begin..", Ethan spoke with a dull tone, Sera merely nodded her head before speaking.

"The place is just superb, I love it. We'll call the designers to renovate the building according to the concept and then I'll follow your instructions..", Sera's cheerful mood was in contrast to Ethan's grim look, just as he was about to speak the door to his office clicked.

Ethan stood up with a start prepared to lash out at the impudent person disturbing the meeting, he swallowed back his words when the door opened revealing the intruder.

"Lu.. Lucifer?", Ethan was shocked to see the man after their row that night. His eyes glistened at the tall figure approaching the table.

Contrary to Ethan's emotions, Sera felt her heart in her mouth when she turned towards the door. Lucifer was coming towards her with a devilish smile making her swallow her spit,

"This man..", Sera was fidgeting in her seat feeling uncomfortable under Lucifer's pronounced presence.

Looking like a king who owns everything little thing in the room, dressed in all black Lucifer leisurely strode towards Ethan, he paused his steps flashing a brilliant smile to Sera that hit her right into the heart before walking towards Ethan's side.

The contrast between the two men was miles apart, although they were both handsome and successful with a lot of qualities in them as well as an equal standing in the society Sera couldn't help but feel a greater difference between Ethan and Lucifer.
