The Girl He Craves

Sophie’s pov

We continued to eat breakfast only for a few minutes later for his phone to start ringing again.

This time Aiden grunted a low curse which made me shoot

him an angry dagger. He winces and pulls out his phone while avoiding my angry gaze.

“What?” He barked.

He stays silent for a few but then his eyes began to swirl with that storm I thought he had gotten rid of.

I shiver, feeling sorry for the person on the other line.

“Fine. I’ll be there in a few.” He hissed angrily and ends the

call.

My stomach drops a little with disappointment at his words but then I realized I shouldn’t be. He was after all the boss and should always be present at the workplace.

Aiden looks at me apologetically. “I’m sorry mama bear, there’s a bit of trouble at the office I need to see to. I promise to get back as soon as possible. Do you mind waiting for me here baby?”

His eyes softened considerably when his focus was on me. Gone was the storm, but irritation still swirled through his blue pools.

He looked to hold a bit fear that I would say no.

Which was a bit mindblowing that he truly wanted to spend time with Ash and I so much.

I nod. “Okay. I’ll call the girls to let them know I won’t be coming today.”

A grin smeared on his face, one that had my stomach twisting with tiny wild butterflies.

“Spend the night too.” His bottom lip draws between his teeth and he bites down on the plump flesh.

I bit the inside of my bottom lip. “I don’t know Aiden…” I drawled.

I would be lying if I’ didn’t feel a bit scared that this won’t work out
