Not Yet
Vega and Kazandra left the main hall and came to a corridor. The man led them to a private room before Vega let go of her hand. She looked around and made herself comfortable by sitting down on the couch.
“I thought you were going to introduce me to someone?” The smile on the woman’s face lingered. Now that they were in the room, she could already tell that Vega just made up that story.
“I already had enough of that place and I can tell that you don’t like the crowd too. If you want to leave then you are free to do so.” Vega was facing the floor to ceiling window of the room and started to undo his necktie.
Kazandra chuckled. She leaned forward and poured wine on the glass that was already on the table. “Why would I leave when you’ve voluntarily invited me to this room where only the two of us are present.”
She stared at the glass as she slowly swirled the wine. Vega did not answer the woman. The necktie and jacket were then discarded on the bed. Kazandra took a slow sip of the wine until it was all gone. The atmosphere inside the room slowly turned ambiguous and the both of them could feel it.
The sound of the wine glass hitting the glass table was particularly loud in that silence. Vega unbuttoned two buttons from his dress shirt with his attention still on the bright lights outside of the window. Kazandra stood up and took her time to approach the man. She silently stood beside him and both of them silently watched the night sky.
“When will you be leaving for Zaithan?” Kazandra spoke first. She slightly tilted her head to Vega’s direction.
“In a week. I need to finish some work here before I can travel.” Vega maintained his posture and didn’t move.
“Then, I will be waiting for you there.” A soft laugh came from the woman which prompted Vega to look at her.
She was truly beautiful. Her hair looked soft to the touch and even her voice was pleasant to his ear. It wasn’t like any of those other women who kept on clinging on him. Kazandra Hernandez was indeed different from the rest of them.
‘If she was my mate…’ Vega suddenly held himself back. He was waiting for his mate and to think of a woman who was not his mate was wrong of him.
** ‘Are you sure that she is not our mate? We can’t feel anything and yet we are still attracted to her.’ A voice in his head resounded and it made it even more difficult to look away.
“Is there something wrong?” Kazandra felt the man’s gaze on her so she fully turned to face him.
Their gazes met and it felt like time had stopped for the both of them. Vega’s eyes were pulled towards the woman’s lips as he wondered if they would be as soft as it looked like. The man took a step closer and pulled the woman by her waist.
Kazandra didn’t stop the man. She didn’t avert her gaze and returned it with as much intensity as the man’s. When she first saw Vega, she could already tell that he was the one. She had been waiting for him for so many years and now that she found him, she won’t back down nor shy away.
Vega slowly leaned forward and captured the woman’s lips. Both of them felt an electrifying spark the moment that their lips touched and he was right, Kazandra’s lips were soft. He pulled her closer to his body and deepened the kiss. Kazandra hooked her arms around his shoulder as he let him in.
In the blink of an eye, both of them were already on the sofa. Vega held the woman as she sat down on his lap as she continued to give him a passionate kiss. The deep kisses made her body hot and the soft caresses that the man was giving her shoulders and back was making her crazy. She wanted more.
Vega was about to go insane at how this intimacy was giving him so much pleasure. He could feel the heat coming from her clothed body and all he wanted to do was rip that dress and pull her closer to him. It drove him insane even more as those soft lips started wandering down his chin and eventually towards his neck. He bent back his head to offer her more access to his flesh followed by a groan as the woman started to suck his skin. She was leaving her mark.
He opened his eyes as the perfect control he had slowly slipped away. His eyes started to switch from gold and black. Vega was sure that his wolf was feeling it too, the extreme pleasure that this woman was giving him. He couldn’t fathom what more would happen if their bodies weren’t restricted with the clothes they were wearing.
As the last bit of control that he had was about to break, Kazandra stopped. She straightened her back and looked at the man below her. She caressed his cheek and leaned down to rest her forehead on his.
“Not yet,” her soft voice tickled his ear and brought another sensation of pleasure to his body. “Not tonight but perhaps in the future. I enjoyed our kiss though.”
She pulled her head and gave the man a grin. She could see the passion and at the same the disappointment in the man’s eye but she can’t give what he wanted, for now. Kazandra wanted to let their relationship and connection grow, emotionally.
Kazandra stood up from sitting on his lap and fixed her hair and dress. Vega still had his eyes closed to calm himself and his wolf. When he finally opened his eyes, they were back to its usual blackness. He then looked at the woman who was preparing to leave.
“Will you let me kiss you again?” Vega gave the woman a smile, the first ever smile that he showed Kazandra ever since their first meeting.
“I’ll think about it.” Kazandra winked and left the room with a wide smile on her face.
Vega remained in the room for a few minutes to calm himself before he left. He met up with Evos who had been waiting for him at the exit. He was actually glad that the woman stopped before anything could happen between them. His carnal desire almost took over and the thought of it made him sigh. He rubbed his forehead because he already knew that things would only get difficult now that he had taste of those tender lips of hers.
