Chapter 153
“What about a date?” I suggested instead.
I was starting to worry if all the progress that we have made so far had been lost. It seemed like after the days that I had been away, he had reverted to the sex monster that he was.
“Sure, we can go on a date first if you want as long as we can do it all night later,” EROS said like he couldn’t care less about the dating part.
This isn’t right. How is he supposed to date another girl properly after this? Not to talk about portraying some loving and romantic character on the silver screen.
What have I gotten myself into this time?
“Let’s do this another way,” I said after a moment of thought.
“What way?” he asked curiously.
I had no idea if this was the right way to teach him things, but I couldn’t think of another way. As long as the lesson seemed to capture his attention then I guess not everything was a failure. With the many things that were going on with my life, EROS’s pending movie audition had slipped my mind. Mark and EROS didn’t bring that up and I was starting to wonder if the project had been canceled; however, I knew that that wasn’t likely. That can only mean one thing: that movie project would come back to haunt us sooner or later.
.....
“You will perform at the charity concert and then we can go on a date,” I stated my proposal
EROS’s golden eyes narrowed at me before he looked away and sighed. I knew that he wouldn’t like my proposal and that was probably because...
“So that means that I can’t have you right now?” EROS asked with clear disbelief and disappointment.
I knew it...
I should have known that the concept of instant gratification was something the EROS seemed to worship and believe in wholeheartedly. However, he had to learn that there was a right timing for everything and that dragging a girl into a meeting room with him to bang her wasn’t exactly the right standard that he should be aspiring towards.
“Yes, that’s right,” I said without backing down.
“Bullshit...” EROS muttered under his breath.
“The concert is part of your job. Why can’t you be professional about it? Is it because you don’t want to perform if you don’t get any money from it?” I asked before I could stop myself.
EROS seemed stunned and then he was silent for a moment. At that time, I thought that I had offended him, and I probably had to a certain degree. It wasn’t unusual for people to work for money, though, and there wasn’t anything wrong with it either. I am proudly working my ass off for money as well.
“It’s not about the money. I just feel...uncomfortable around children that are...in need...” EROS murmured.
I didn’t quite understand what he meant but the sad look that entered EROS’s eyes gave me pause.
“Right. Anyways, it would be better for you and for everyone if you performed at the charity concert. Can you do that?” I asked hopefully.
“Advance payment...” EROS said as he brought his face so close to mine that I had to move back away from him.
“What?” I asked in a whisper.
“I’ll do the concert and I’ll wait until it’s done before we have sex. However, I want a part of my reward right now...” EROS said as he leaned closer to me again on the sofa.
“Wait...” I said as I tried to back away.
“I have around 15 minutes before my next rehearsal. Shall we?” EROS asked seductively.
I could tell that he was serious about this. How far does he want to go in 15 minutes?
That was still quite a lot of time...
What am I even thinking?
“Do we have a deal, Elena? Concert or no concert?” EROS asked.
By that time, I was already on my back on the sofa, and he was already looming over me from above. His head conveniently blocking out the light from the ceiling above. Things were moving fast just like it always did with EROS. The only good thing in all of this was that he was actively asking permission to do it. Was that a huge leap forward in the right direction?
Maybe.
“You know, I don’t know why I have to make this stupid deal with you. Performing at that concert is part of your job,” I said sternly.
“It’s not. Performing at the concert is going to give the CEO a chance to do many things off of my name. If I don’t get to fuck you, there’s no way that I’m going up on a stage lined with ulterior motives while using charity as a convenient excuse to get publicity like that,” EROS said through gritted teeth.
“How far do you want to go for today? Time is running out...” I asked before pointing out that we indeed had a time constraint.
I also wondered if Mark or anyone else had already figured out what we were up to in this meeting room while we were all alone. Maybe they had a clue or maybe they didn’t. I honestly had no idea, and I wasn’t quite sure if I cared anymore. EROS, on the other hand, didn’t seem to care at all.
“How far will you let me go?” EROS asked softly and seductively.
A shiver ran through my body when he traced the back of his fingers along my cheek softly and tenderly. His golden eyes captured mine and I could clearly see the fire of desire dancing in their depths. Even if I knew that he was asking that for my own benefit, I had no idea how far I wanted him to go.
“If you don’t know. What about you let me play with you until the alarm rings? It’ll feel like we’re sneaking and doing it around in school during lunch break...” EROS suggested as his fingers moved from my cheek down to play softly with my lips.
