Chapter 20:MORE THAN FRIENDS

I noticed Mace glancing at me while I was eating at the cafeteria with Jenila..The love potion is definitely doing it's work..I was smiling back at him in a romantic way and he looked aroused by it..I also forgot to mention how amazing he looked as well..he was in a black tuxedo as always with his 24 karat gold chain around his neck..and his hair slicked back which made him look way more hotter..he loved black just like me..at least we do share some things in common..I noticed Jenila looking at the two of us like she was watching a romantic movie scene..And I immediately broke eye contact with Mace to avoid her getting suspicious of us..

Jenila:Who are you looking at London?..

London:Uh..No one just looking around casually...(Sips tea)..

Jenila:Is that so?..so why were you being all alluring then..who were you displaying it for huh?..I saw you girl..You were biting your lip..and doing siren eyes..so of course you were looking at someone..

London:Jenila..I was thinking about something in my mind I didn't actually mean to act that way..Geez!..

Jenila:Yeah..Mace would totally support that as well..(Giggles)..

London:(Looks at Jenila in suprise)..You knew?..

Jenila:Of course London..I mean I've seen the way you both look at each other..and it became clear at the engagement party that he likes you..I just decided to keep it to myself...There's definitely something going on between you two..

London:If you think so..then it's one-sided..I'm not interested..besides I have some designing to do..see you later(Leaves)..

As I walked towards my office..Mace grabbed me by the hand and pulled me into his office and closed the door shut..like he was a kidnapper trying to kidnap me..Why did he pull me into his office like this?..What's going on in his mind?....

London:What are you doing?...

Mace:Relax..I just wanted to talk to you..

London:By grabbing my hand and pulling me into your office and closing the door shut..How convenient!..

Mace:I'm sorry..it's just..I wanted to clarify something..I've been thinking about it..but I haven't been able to say it..

London:Go on..(Draws closer to him)..

Mace:London..do you think this is anything?..

London:(Stares at Mace in confusion)..What do you mean?..

Mace:I mean like..from what Jenila said back at the cafeteria..she thinks something is going on between us..

London:Hmm..so you were eavesdropping huh?..

Mace:Well sort of but..the question is do you think anything is going on between us?..

London:Honestly sir..Maybe to you..Yes..but..

Mace:But what?..

London:Not to me..

Mace:(Lets go of her hand)..

London:Mace..like I said just forget whatever happened this morning..it wasn't intentional..it just happened..it's nothing..A simple kiss can't ruin our friendship now can it?..

Mace:I guess..

London:Look..Mace I consider you as a friend..we can't do this..it's not right..you're engaged..and..

Before I could finish my sentence he kissed me again..and this time...longer..I could feel myself melting as he kissed me..He held me so close to himself I could feel his heartbeat..Then I pushed him away  feeling enraged..

London:Just stop!..Enough..what are you trying to do to me huh?..Are you trying to get it on with me..

Mace: No..No...London I'm so sorry I don't know what's happening to me!..I've never felt so energetic in my life..I don't know what's wrong with me..

London:You don't know?..

Mace:Yeah...but the only thing I do know is that I'm wildly attracted to you..

London:Oh..I don't know what to say?..

Mace:I lose myself when I'm around you..I don't have control over myself anymore when I'm close to you London..

London:So you think Jenila might be right?..

Mace:I don't know for sure..but I think so..

London:Ok..

I stared at him intensely and I could hear his breathing rate increase as I looked deep into his eyes..then I sat him on the chair and kissed him slightly on the lips...

London:Still don't know?..

Mace:(Smiles)..No..

Then I kissed him again and this time deeper and more intense then I stopped once again..

London:Stand up..You gotta stare me down..not the other way around..

Mace:(Stands up)..

As he stood up..I could feel his hot breath on my body  and he totally did that on purpose..then he slowly took my hand in his and kissed it..

Mace:Will you still be my friend if I do this London?..

London:(Smirks)..Do what?..

Before I could think of what he wanted to say his lips were pressed against mine once again..and the intensity gave me that strong urge to participate as well and I did..I was completely taken over by Stephanie at that point..Then he swooped me in his arms and placed me on his table without breaking the kiss..I could hear the items that were placed on the table fall to the ground due to how rough we were..Then his phone rang..Then we both stopped our lip locking session..and I immediately regained myself and fixed my hair and clothes..while he readjusted his tie and answered the call..

Mace:Yeah this is Mace de la cruz speaking...

I couldn't help but stare at him..how nervous he was before and how he just became so confident to do this..That potion is really strong to make him react this way..I never thought I would actually kiss the enemy and turns out..He's good at it..

Mace:Right now I'm busy with some work..I'll call you later..(Cuts call)..(Looks at London)..

London:Why did you say you were busy..

Mace:Because I am..(Smirks)..

London:(Chuckles)..Remember that we're friends and nothing else..this should be a secret...

Mace:Of course..I wouldn't break a promise made to a friend..

London:Oh really..just a friend..(Looks at his lips)..

Mace:Best friend then..

London:That's better..(Smiles)..Oh yeah I wanted to show you the designs I was working on this morning..

Mace:Everything you do is perfect just know that..

London:(Blushes)..Thank you Mace..

Mace:(Kisses her cheek)..

London:(Looks at Mace in suprise)..

Mace:Quit staring you wanted to show me your designs..(Smiles)..

London:Oh...yeah right..

Honestly,I didn't expect him to be this passionate..Passionate to the point Stephanie almost fully came out of me...which would have led to something more serious and I'm happy not all of her came out..otherwise I would have been without my clothes right now..which isn't what I want to happen..I'm here for one thing..which is the property of the company..and speaking of the property I need to figure out a way to get to Armando de la cruz's office to search for the property documents...
