Chapter 141 - Argument And Naughtiness

CHAPTER 141
"Do not give me an answer just yet." Xander started to say, when Jade screamed her answer.
"YES!" Jade squealed in his ears and jumped up before falling on him and hugging him, causing him to fall backwards on the table.
"Hahha haha… Thank you, my love."
He hugged her tightly against his body. He was careful for nothing no more. Now he knew what it meant when they said one was in love.
He felt immeasurable joy like what he had never felt before in his entire life.
For Jade, she knew what her mother felt when she agreed to her father's proposal. Their marriage was one borne out of love even though she knew what his business was like and the risk involved, she did not care because she was so much in love with her husband.
Jade for the first time understood what it meant and she did not care about anything about being suspicious of him again. He was the man that she wished for all her life.Someone who would love her just as much or even more than she loved him.
This was a dream come true to her.
"Calm down baby hahhaa… I need to give you a ring and make it official so you can wear it proudly. We would also arrange for an engagement party and invite everyone. I want the world to know that you are mine and you belong to me."

"What?"
"Yes, isn't that what you want?"
"Yes and no," Jade stated flatly. Hearing that had just dwindled her jpoy a little bit. It wasn'tg what she wanted One bit.
Yes every girl would dream of that, but hell no. it was too risky for her as he was vceryu connected and all her enemies would know and if Zale could find her looking similar, there would be someone who would as well.
Secondly, Arctic would find out as well. Soon there would be more opposition to her marriage.
She shook her head in her mind. She couldn't allow what would break her relationship rather than strengthen it.
"Why?"
"I told you about my parents' killers, the last thing I want is for them knowing I live while I plot my revenge."
"You are still on about it," Xander said and lowered his gaze. He had hoped she had started forgetting about it but it turns out it wasn't the case.
"I am sorry honey, but this means a lot to me. I love you but I owe it to my parents to do this."
"Your parents would want you to live a good life and not be tied down by the woes of revenge, Quinn," Xander tried to reason with her.
"I understand your concern and I would live my life. I am still living aren't I? I am still here and I have fallen in love."
"It hurts me to know that I am not enough to make you change your mind. This is not you, my love."
"I am sorry Xander," Jade apologized and kissed him. 'But if only you know, which you do not. This is me. I deliver punishments to those who cross me. I am ruthless when it comes to work.'
"Quinn my love," Xander called her name after he pulled away from the kiss. Please still think about it. Revenge is not always the answer and although you may say or think it would satisfy and appease the void once you have carried it out, it never stops. It never fills any void. Rather it leaves you more and more empty each passing day."
'Xander…"
"Wait," he hushed her. "Listen, baby, revenge does not add to you, rather it takes from you and once you cross that road, there is no going back again. You would never be whole again, never be complete, too scared to take a life."
'I have taken many and so many before but you fear for someone like me. Tsk, honey, things are not as they seem,' Jade thought to herself.
"That is a risk I am willing to take. For my family and the ones I love, I would do anything."
"Then I hope you pick the right path and not kill. Do not have blood on your hands, please."
Jade was about protesting again when Xander held her face in his hands and captured her lips with his, kissing her and showing her his love through it.
"Do you feel it? Do you feel my love and fear for you?" Xander asked again. He took her hand and placed it on his chest. "Feel it, love. Feel my heartbeat. Don't it tell you something. This hearty would only beat for you but please do not make me lose you. I cannot bear it."
"Xander, you won't lose me," Jade assured him, raising her eyes to look at him.
"But…"
"Shh… do not ruin this moment please. Now it isn't about my parents but about you and I, honey. I want to cherish this moment and not talk about those undeserving bastards."
Xander did not say anything further and lowered his gaze, taking in a deep breath. "Fine. Whatever you want."
"I want your smile to return to me. Forget that this conversation happened. I want you. I want to see that desire fill your eyes again like it did before. Show me I matter to you as much as you matter to me."
Rather than speaking to answer her, Xander smiled slightly and kissed her again. He could almost swear that this their conversation had almost made him totally out of it.
His mind wasn't even on the sex anymore. If it wasn't that she moved her hips on him and his dick, having a mind of his own, came back alive again, Xander was ready to just go home and relax.
"Umm… Looks like someone is as hyper as before, if not more."
"Hahha, I told you, you are mine. So I can have you anytime and any day I chose to." Jade smiled at him briefly and attacked his lips, his nose, his forehead and cheeks with her lips.
"Baby…" Jade ignored Xander and went to work on his chest instead. She was planning on returning everything that they had started back again.
She loved the aroused him. It made her feel good that she could turn him on.
'Sigh, he just have to bring on that topic, tsk, naughty boo.' Jade thought to herself and accidentally bit him on his chest, earning a small, almost soundless cry from him.
"Someone is playing naughty. I warn you, be careful. Do not tempt me to want to have you as my lunch right here and now."
"If you can, then please do." Jade challenged him, winking at him and continued with what she was doing.
Taking that as a challenge, Xander sat up on his arms and quickly use his advantage of strength to turn her over and before Jade knew, he was right on top of her with her back pressed hard against the table.
"You want to be seductive huh, forgetting that I also own your body and I can have it anytime."
"Hmm, well, I am yours for the taking."
"I like it when you talk like that. It's like you are challenging me to do what is on my mind."
'Then what is stopping you? Why not do it?" Jade officially challenged him.
"Sigh, if only you know what this naughty CEO is thinking of using his mighty dragon to do to you."
"Is that so?" Xander nodded at her, peering into those lovely orbs that stared at him innocently and mischievously. "Good, cause I like this naughty CEO and his naughty thoughts."
As soon as she finished saying that, shye reached down between them and groped at his member. At the same time, she snaked the other hand behind him and squeeze his bum as well.
Xander was both stunned and aroused by the little trick she just played. He did not know who had taught her to do that.
And as much as he was not angry, he found that tricky and challenging, yet he loved it so much. He loved her boldness at turning him on.
"How is that? Did I try to be naughty?"
"Naughty, maybe. Cunning and tricky, yes but I love it."
"I am glad you do," Jade said smiling. Xander knew that smile. Coupled with the look in those hazel green eyes of hers, he knew she was up to no good.
Before he could protest or warn her, she did it again, groping and squeezing on the two part of his body her hands found as her culprit.
Xander bit down hard on his lower lip. It was the first time he had someone touch his ass, a girl for that matter and he could not explain the feeling but somehow, he loved it especially knowing that it was the lady that won his heart that was bold enough to do it.
"Fuck!' Xander cursed when she did it for the third time.
