39 CHAPTER 39: TWO SOULS BECOME ONE

"That was your fault to begin with."

Jade muttered while they were on their way home.

"My fault? It was you who called me by my first name and you started nagging as if---""Why did you yell at me in the first place, huh? You told me to stay home that day and made Sonny do my job and yet you dare to ---""I forgot, okay!"

"And you're not even saying sorry for yelling at me." Jade made a sorrowful face."Fine! Sorry!" He blurted. "But still, work time is not flirt time.""Wow. Look who's talking." She chuckled mockingly. "Don't you think you should also practice what you teach." She hissed in annoyance."What? And where is that coming from?""Rachelle, remember?"

Marcus chuckled. "Are you jealous?"

"No." She denied but she's been wanting to shout 'Yes!'"Then why are you acting as if it was a big deal?""Because you started it!"

"Zion?" The man slowly parked the car at the garage. "He's a friend. A good friend." She got off the car.

"A friend whom you are willing to sacrifice your work time?" The man followed behind."We were talking about something important.""More important than your work?"

"Yes." She nonchalantly replied. "And why are you interrogating me? Do you want me to asked questions about you and Rachelle too? Would you be so willing to explain why she came to your office wearing such a vulgar dress?"

Marcus was speechless as they entered the house.

"See? You don't even want to talk about it." She was a bit hurt. "She came to your office during your work hours. Isn't that considered obstruction of business?"

"She's a special case." He followed the woman upstairs.

"Special case, my ass." She cursed and banged the door to their bedroom. Marcus was a bit stunned when she shut the door right in front of him. That was close! He exhaled.

"Then don't asked about Zion too because he's a special case." She twitched her lip before entering the shower room.

"Special case, my ass!" Marcus hissed before changing his suit.

Ah! He laid his tired back on his bed. Why does this day seem a little bit weird? He thought as he massaged his temples.

A few minutes later, the woman came out looking fresh. Then the man slowly stood up and walked towards the shower room. He looked…. sick.

Is he? Now she's worried.

Minutes later, Marcus came out with a towel on his head. He was walking slowly with his shoulder down and went to sit at the edge of his bed. Jade glanced at his side and saw him caressing his temple.

"You okay?" She asked."Ehm." He moaned in response. But he was obviously not fine so Jade went and stood up before him.

"Is your head hurting?""Nah, I'm fine. It's just a minor headache.""Do you have migraine?""I don't think so." He was massaging his temples.

Jade sighed and touched his head. "Let me do that.""Do you know how to?""Of course! Your grandmother can prove it." She chuckled while applying a light massage on his head.

Ah! She's good. He mumbled within him.

"I like your hands. Do you offer full body massage?" He unknowingly asked."Eh?" She was a bit surprise. She didn't expect that from him. Was he serious?

Well, she can do full body massage but she might faint when she touches his skin! No way! She won't embarrass herself like that.

"Guess you can't. You might even drool when you see me naked."

She took a deep breath.

"Did someone ever told you how narcissistic you are?" She raised her brow. Well, she might really drool but she doesn't want to admit it.

"I don't really care as long as they know I'm handsome."

"Tsk! You're a hundred percent pure breed of a narcissist. How could you even do that?"

"It's a rare gift."

"Yeah, I guess. Being a narcissist is definitely a rare talent."

"I mean being born irresistibly handsome is a gift." He chuckled in jest.

"Tsk! I really can't believe where your confidence was coming from. Do you think every woman would be drawn to you?"

"Is that a question?" He's becoming boastful."Then I should make that a statement then."

Her tone was seemingly challenging the man's ego. Therefore, Marcus grabbed her and pinned the woman in his bed.

Jade, on the other hand, was utterly surprised to see the topless man on top her.

"M-marcus… what are you doing?" She gulped nervously.

"Trying to see if you can resist this man's charm." He sneered viciously as he touched the woman's jaw gently.

"You!" She clenched her teeth annoyingly and tried to push the man away but he was too strong for her.

"Your blushing." The man smirked."No, I'm not! Your just too heavy for ---"

Her eyes widened in surprise when the man suddenly captured her lips.

"Did someone told you that you look like a girl who was kissed by his crush?" He chuckled but to his surprise, he didn't hear the woman howl. "Will you stop acting as if your first kiss was stolen." He hissed.

"B-but it was my first kiss." She blushed greatly. She looked at the man with wistful eyes.

Her first kiss? Marcus couldn't believe his ears. Is it really her first? But she's… beautiful. He gulped when his eyes landed on the woman's definitely defined pink lips. His finger seemed to have his own mind since he started tracing the woman's lips. Jade parted it a little as if tempting the man.

Dang it! What's happening? Both hearts were beating fast and loud. Jade must admit that she was captivated with the man's intense gaze and she could feel the heat coursing through her body.

Marcus on the other hand, wanted to stand up but his body seemed to be glued on her. His bare chest could feel the woman's breasts. Also, looked like the woman was not wearing her bra. Dang it! His body seemed to be acting weird. He cannot command it!

Damn it! Come what may! He made his resolved and finally bend down to capture the woman's lips. He was ready to receive a slap from her for what he did, but surprisingly, she was responding to his advances.

Fudge! It only fueled his intense desire to consume the woman tonight.

And that very night, two souls finally became one.
