Chapter 75
Leigh-Ann’s POV
I blinked back to reality when I felt him place his lips on my forehead.
What?!?
I looked up immediately and that was the first time I did since we started the dance.
“Coe moe eh stahs” He spoke in Spanish.
It sounded familiar and I realized Alejandra asked often. It meant “How are you?”
“Bien gracias” I responded “Fine, thank you” And he chuckled lightly. I forced a smile too.
“Si pues, moo chō goo stō”NôvelDrama.Org owns this.
Okay. Why was he now speaking in Spanish?
I didn’t know what “Si pues” meant but I could tell he meant he was pleased to meet me, the fuck???
I giggled shyly while he chuckled. The moment felt magical and I couldn’t even feel the tension anymore.
I looked up at him but this time, I wanted to look into his eyes, to see what they held. As if we had the same thoughts, he looked back at me and we kept looking into each other’s eyes.
The waltz seemed to take over me cause I closed my eyes to embrace the feeling. Our steps were slower and longer and our twirls, more sweeping.
Kael pulled me closer as my boobs pressed against his chest but I didn’t mind.
I moved my hand farther into his shoulder and placed it behind his neck. No words were spoken but I could feel my heart doing the speaking.
Why didn’t I feel this way while dancing with Ace? It felt completely different from this.
Still, with my eyes closed, I felt Kael raise my other hand which held his to his neck while he settled his on my waist.
Oh goodness, how he made me feel. Deep down, I wished this moment was never going to end but sadly, it was gonna end.
We kept dancing till I realized the waltz was playing far away from us. I opened my eyes and looked around. We were in a different place and it was just the two of us. I looked up at him surprised.
“S… Sir” I called out.
He didn’t respond but kept looking into my face as we kept dancing.
“Sir… Sir we…” I tried to speak but I couldn’t find the right words.
Looking around, I searched for Alejandra and Ace but there were nowhere to be found and it got me wondering if we had danced all the way here.
“Is there a problem Ma’am?” I heard Kael’s husky voice and turned my gaze to him.
Did he just call me Ma’am?
“S… Sir..”
He closed his eyes and opened them slowly. “Drop the goddamn title for tonight. I’m Kael.”
I lowered my head and that was when it occurred to me that my boobs were still pressed tightly, against his chest and our thighs touched as we moved.
I shook in realization and wanted to withdraw my arms from the back of his neck.
“Don’t” His cold voice broke in. Just one word from him made me shiver .
I held my breath and tried to relax. He said “Just for tonight” I reminded myself. Just for tonight.
Just for tonight, he was Kael and not my boss. He was my Lover and that was just for tonight.

With Kael’s arms around my waist and mine around his neck, we kept dancing to the waltz. It felt like a fucking dream.
I didn’t realize when I raised my hands to the back of his head and began playing with his hair. It felt so soft and smooth.
The waltz kept playing and with my eyes closed, I could pick a few lines.
“… And now I know, the key to all heavens is mine…” Deep down, I wished it were real and not just some moments to last only for the night.
Oh, I wish- I breathed.
Kael’s warm breath fanned my neck leaving this unexplained sensation that drove me wild. I turned my neck to the side, giving room for more.
Of course, I needed more. I needed more of everything he had to offer and again, I felt his breath on my neck. It wasn’t as warm as before and it felt hot and breathtaking.
“Leigh-Ann” Kael’s cold but hoarse voice shot me out of my wildest fantasy.
I didn’t open my eyes. Didn’t want the moment to come to an end but what happened next was unimaginable.
I shivered and was weak to my bones. I couldn’t absorb the heated sensation that came bursting out and the butterflies in my belly made me feel sick.
What the hell was Kael doing to me???
“Leigh-Ann” He called again and this time, I had to forcefully open my weak eyes. I couldn’t even see clearly as I looked up at him. Our faces, an inch apart.
Gulping hard, I averted my eyes to his lips. The same feeling I had the night I had kissed him came boiling down my body.
“For tonight” He started “You’re my girl”
I didn’t take my eyes off his lips as I watched its movements as though I was reading his words directly from his mouth.
He gave my waist a hard squeeze and I winced. It felt like I was going to break into his arms and without taking my eyes off his lips, I spoke my own words which came out more like a whisper.
“And for tonight, you’re Kael, my lover”
Through bleary eyes, I saw something form at the corner of his lips which made my heart skip. It looked more like a smirk. A devilish one.
