Irresistible Boss Succumbing to Your Touch (Maria Anita) novel Chapter 214

Henry’s POV

I didn’t know what else to do to convince Samantha to forgive me had been so long… What was I thinking when I fell into that pest Isabella’s trap? But I had to find a way; I couldn’t forget Samantha.

I ran into her yesterday at Miller’s house. She was even more beautiful! But she didn’t give me a chance to talk to her. As soon as I arrived, she left. That was how it had been lately; whenever we meet, she left without even listening to me.

“Henry, wake up! I’m talking to you!” Melissa snapped her fingers in front of my face.

“Oh, sorry, Melissa, I was distracted,” I said, adjusting my posture in the chair.

We were in my office, and Melissa was briefing me about an important meeting that I’d asked her to attend on my behalf the day before. For days, I’d been too scattered and couldn’t focus on work

“Look, Henry, if you can’t handle the game, don’t play it. Either you take back control of the company, or quit,” Melissa said, leaning back in the chair across from me.

“Or I could pass you the baton…” I considered.

“What are you saying?” Melissa looked at me, shocked.

“Exactly that. I could give you the presidency, at least temporarily, until I sort things out,” I explained the idea that had been nagging at my mind.

“What kind of idiot are you?” Melissa crossed her hands in her lap and asked me. “Honestly, Henry, get your head straight and take control of your life. You need a day, fine, but nothing more than that!”

“Mel, I still haven’t worked things out with Sam, and it’s driving me crazy,” I explained to her.

“Look, Henry, weak men abandon everything. And women don’t like weak men,” Melissa began. “If you want to win Sam back, prove to her that you’re responsible and reliable. If your life stays the mess it is now, she’ll never forgive you. Look at yourself unshaven, hair untrimmed, wrinkled shirt, crooked tie. Sometimes I wonder if you’re even showering… Stop this! You’ve become a pit of self–pity, and it’s ridiculous. She’ll never forgive you if you keep this up.”

“What should I do, Mel? I don’t have the energy for anything,” I said, resting my forehead on the desk.

“Oh, you mess! Let’s start by having a decent breakfast, because I think lately all you do is drink,” Melissa said, pulling me by the arm. “Come on, let’s go.”

I sat with Melissa at one of the tables in the bakery near the office. She ordered paninis, pastries, and croissants, plus two cappuccinos and two orange juices. Melissa made me eat, and we started talking.

“So, mess, what do you do when you’re not at the office?” Melissa asked while biting into a cheese croissant.

“Lately?” I asked, and she nodded. “I drink. If I’m not at home, I’m at Patrick’s place. But before I start drinking, I stop by Miller’s house to see the kids.”

“Oh, they’re so adorable, aren’t they?!” Melissa’s eyes sparkled as she talked about her friend’s children. “And Peter, that little one gets smarter every day!”

“Peter is the spitting image of his father!” I smiled. “Alexander was always the smartest in class, always sharp and full of charm. It wasn’t until his parents died that he became withdrawn, stressed, and isolated. Until Cat came along…”

“Oh, they’re such an amazing couple!” Melissa was happy for her friend.

“You and Fred are too!” I commented. “That’s what I want in my life, Mel, that kind of relationship, that lifelong love.” “But Henry, a relationship is something you build. It’s not just love. You need respect, admiration, care, trust, and companionship. A relationship is made up of many things that we put into it,” Melissa argued. “A relationship has good days

and bad days. We all have problems, we need to be able to solve them. And just as importantly, we need to be with someone whose flaws we can tolerate and whose qualities make those flaws worth it.”

“I understand,” I agreed, taking a sip of my cappuccino. “Mel, how do I win Sam back?”

“For starters, don’t give up, not yet. And go back to being the Henry she riset, confident, who takes care of himself and everything around him.” Melissa placed her hand on mine. “You see, Henry, you need to take care of yourself first, before thinking about bringing someone into your life?”

“I understand!” I replied, lowering my head.

“Great, because we’re both taking the day off and I’m taking you to get a makeover and go shopping. Tomorrow you’ll sit in your chair and run your empire. And after that, I’ll help you with Sam.” Melissa spoke as if she were briefing me on a battle strategy.

“You’ll really help me?” I asked. “Or will you do to me what you did with Miller?”

“What do you mean?” Melissa asked, somewhat confused.

“When Alexander asked for your help to win Catherine back, you said you’d help, but you were just acting as an informant for your friend,” I explained.

“Oh, right!” Melissa smiled, her face showing she remembered the situation. “But I’ll help you for real. I believe in your remorse. Besides, if you mess with Sam again, I’ll rip your balls off with my bare nails.”

“Melissa, don’t say that! Just hearing it makes me hurt.”

“Then don’t mess up again, you man–whore!” Melissa gave a wicked little laugh.

We finished our coffee and went to put Melissa’s plan into action. I just hoped it would actually work.

Chapter 215

I was working from home and really missed the office. But I also don’t want to leave my kids all day yet. In the middle of the afternoon, my husband called me,

“Hi, mommy!” He said cheerfully, holding his chin with one finger on his face, with that posture I loved.

“Hi, daddy! Did you miss me?” I teased him.

“All the time!” Alexander sighed. “My angel, shall we go out for dinner tonight? Just you and me.”

“Hmm, what an unexpected invitation. What’s the occasion?”

“The fact that I want to spend some time alone with my beautiful wife.”

“I like that!”

“Is that a yes?”

“That’s a ‘definitely.“” I smiled at the tablet screen.

“Great!” Alexander flashed a beautiful half–smile. “See you tonight, my angel.”

Alexander took me to dinner at a beautiful and very pleasant restaurant. When he ordered dessert, he asked the waiter to pack it to go and bring the check as well.

“Dessert to go, huh?” I teased my husband.

“It’s been a long time since we shared a slice of chocolate cake.” He smiled mischievously at me and took my hand. “I miss that!

We left the restaurant but didn’t go home. Alexander took me to the apartment where he lived before we got married. When he parked in the garage, I looked at him surprised.

“I thought this could be our special place. A place just for us, for when we want to spend time away from everything.” Alexander looked at me as if waiting for approval.

“I love the idea!” I put my hand on his face as I spoke. “And I love this place, I have great memories here.”

Alexander got out of the car, came around and picked me up in his arms, giving me a hot kiss full of promises. When we reached the apartment door, he put me down and opened it, turned on a few lights and let me in, closing the door behind me.

Alexander hugged me from behind and moved my hair to one side, leaving my neck free for his kisses.

“Ah, my angel, you have no idea how much I miss feeling your body against mine.” Alexander whispered in my ear, making my whole body shiver in anticipation. “Wait here, I’ll be right back.”

Alexander went to the kitchen and when he came back, he brought the slice of cake on a plate with a fork and walked to the couch, sitting down and leaving the plate with the cake on the coffee table.

“Miss Catherine, please sit down.” Alexander used a formal tone and I walked to the couch.

When I sat down, Alexander leaned over me, ran his hand along the side of my body and kissed me lustfully while lifting my dress up to my hips. He gently brushed the back of his hand against my thigh and with a smile between our kisses, passed his hand over my pussy, leaving me burning and drawing a moan from me. With a pull, he removed my panties leaving me exposed and moved away, sitting again at the other end of the couch.

“You know, today I remembered that day I told you to come to the office early and I left you without panties almost all day.” My husband had an amused smile on his face.

“Oh, really?! And what made you remember that, Mr. Miller?” I asked while sitting down, trying to hide a smile and playing along with his game.

The fact that I’m leaving you without panties.” Alexander smiled mischievously, took the cake from the table, put a piece in his mouth and pushed a large white bag toward me.

I took the bag from his hands and pulled out a large box. Upon ope Ing it, I found various tiny and sexy panties inside, in different styles and materials.

“Just so you know, I plan to tear all of them apart, so don’t get too attached,” Alexander said while putting a piece of cake in my mouth.

He wanted to play, so we would play! I watched him put another piece of cake in his mouth. I chose one of the panties, a red one that was nothing more than a thin strip of lace with the word “hot written in metallic letters on the back and rhinestone trim on the sides.

I saw Alexander put another piece of cake in his mouth. I stood up slowly, trying to be as sexy as possible, and with the panties in hand, I sat on the coffee table right in front of him. I started putting on the panties slowly, sliding them over one foot and then the other. When I got them past my knees, I stood up. Alexander put the plate of cake aside; his eyes were blazing, and his erection was huge under his pants. I slowly pulled the panties up my thighs and calmly adjusted them in place. When I moved my hands to pull down my dress, he grabbed my wrist.

“Not so fast, Miss Catherine. You know it’s polite to show me how the gift looks and tell me if you liked it,” Alexander smiled and looked at me like he was going to devour,me.

“Of course, boss,” I replied like last time and began to turn slowly, pausing slightly with my back to him so he could appreciate the word on the panties. I finished turning and stopped facing him

“Ah, perfect!” Alexander moaned and pulled me onto his lap, making me straddle him with my legs around his hips.

Alexander ran the tip of his nose over my nipple and gave it a gentle bite, making me moan. I was burning with desire, my pussy was hot and wet against his hard, throbbing erection. Alexander moved beneath me, and the friction between our bodies only increased my arousal; I desperately wanted him inside me.

“That day, I didn’t finish what we started…” He chuckled. “I wanted you to beg, but instead, you sat in front of me and pleasured yourself, making my cock nearly burst through my pants. But tonight, I’m going to finish what we started, and we’ll do it again and again—we have the whole night!”

Alexander leaned back on the couch, holding my waist, and slipped his hand under my panties. With a sexy smile, he began sliding his fingers up and down my pussy, making me even wetter. Every time he moved his fingers upward and circled my clit, I let out a moan. Alexander teased me for a while, and the last time he moved his fingers down, he thrust two inside me at once, driving my arousal to an extreme level, making my sex contract. He withdrew his fingers and brought them to his mouth, sucking them with closed eyes and moaning.

“Mmm, Catherine, I’ll never get tired of this. You’re delicious, way better than chocolate!” Alexander said, grabbing the cake from the couch and began feeding me a piece, then taking one himself, his eyes locked on mine.

When we finished the cake, he set the plate aside and pulled me in for a hot, wet kiss full of desire. He sucked on my lips and tongue, kissing me as if he were fucking my mouth. It was delicious, provocative, and filled me with lust. My body was covered in goosebumps, my nerve endings on fire, trembling at his touch.

The more he kissed me, the tighter he pressed me against his hips. And with each thrust of his tongue, he moved beneath me, increasing the contact and friction between us. I was on the verge of coming. Alexander suddenly stopped everything, stood me up, and adjusted my dress back in place.

“Hey, you said you were going to finish!” I complained, feeling my frustrated orgasm.

“And I will!” Alexander stood up and kissed my cheek. “But I never told you how…” Smiling, he pulled me through the living room to his office.

In the office, there was a very fluffy white carpet near the balcony door, which was open, letting in the cool night air that embraced my body. There were also various vibrant and shimmering cushions scattered around, and the room was lit only by two lamps. Alexander released my hand, took off his shoes, and reclined among the cushions, stretching one leg while keeping the other bent at the knee.
