Forgotten Romance: Take Me Back To You

"You, what are you doing here?" Jess annoyingly raised his brow as soon as he saw the man he least expects to see early morning. "And why the hell are you coming out from her room?" 

Marcus only grinned meaningfully as he confidently stands in front of the guy. Seeing the man holding a bouquet of flowers irritated his eyes. But that doesn't matter as long as he could see how the man crumbles in anxiety especially when he sees him coming out from the woman's small room.

He is also wearing a pajama and Marcus isn't ashamed of flaunting it!

Ah, it's a good thing that he didn't get an extra shirt when he came here at the mountainside to see Mr. Kerie. Though there is a great disadvantage since he doesn't want to ruin his image as a man by wearing a woman's pajama, but if this is how he could get rid of his woman's suitor then he can risk that so-called image.

"You! What did you do to her?" Now Jess indignantly gritted his teeth.

"I believe you should ask her what she did to me. Cause as far as I remember I didn't make any move, it's the other way around!" Marcus purposely chuckled at the thought of what happened last night.

"You! How dare you tarnish the most respected woman in this place!" Without thinking twice, Jess raised his hand, curled his fist into a ball and charged into the man's smirking face!

Blagggg! The man fell on the ground, blood started to flow from the side of his mouth. Unknown to them, Jade had just woken up and as soon as she noticed the empty bed, she immediately came out and the very first thing she saw early in the morning was Jess charging against the man.

Marcus spit some blood on the ground but instead of getting back at him immediately, he just sneered but filled with contempt. He looked up and glared at the young man who suddenly staggered backwards as soon as he saw the beastly eyes of the man. 

He looks like a beast ready to slaughter him at any moment!

Then he dreadfully grinned at him especially when he saw fear shadowed his eyes. Now, since he first punched him, he won't be blame if he takes revenge, right? He was just thinking of how he could kill him when a worried voice suddenly shouted his name.

"Marcus!" They both heard Jade, and her footsteps are clear indication that she's rushing to his side right now. "Hey, are you alright?" The woman quickly reached his face to inspect his wound. The side of his mouth is bleeding. The impact of Jess' punch made his lips erupts. 

Marcus, on the other hand, was shocked upon seeing a worried Jade. She was busy looking at the wounds that she didn't notice the man looking at her intently. 

"J-jade… I… I can explain… It's not what you think. I merely---"

"Mr. Jess, please don't cause any more trouble early in the morning." The woman coldly cut him off. She didn't even spare him a glance while reprimanding him and that pained the young manager. Just who in the world is this man in Jade's life?!

"Jade…."

"Please… let's talk later." The woman uttered. 

Jess wanted to explain why he did that but he himself doesn't know how to justify his actions. He was also surprised at himself for hitting the man. Guess he was overwhelmed at the wild thoughts entering his mind upon seeing the man wearing the woman's pajama. Worst, he came out from his room!

He never even had a chance to step near the door nor had a glimpse of her tiny room all his life! But this stranger suddenly appeared out of nowhere and invaded Jade's privacy.

Did they sleep together? Did something happen between them? The room is too small for one person, let alone two! A man and a woman sleeping together in a room, in a single bed--- it is way too impossible that they just sleep without the thought of sėx in their minds!

Too impossible! 

Jess clenched his fist, mixed emotions keeps hurling within him. He wanted to say something but he tried to control his mouth. He just clenched his fist in disappointment and walked away from them.

They both heard the man's footsteps walking away and neither of them even gave him a glance. Jade was focused on the bloody lips while Marcus eyes are fixated at her beautiful face. 

"Does it hurt?" Her voiced creaked a little. 

"Not really. This is just a small cut----"

"It's kinda big. Stand up, let's put an ointment on it for the meantime." She emotionlessly stood up and walk back to her room. Marcus followed the woman emitting a gloomy aura. 

Marcus sat at the edge of the small bed while Jade rummage the few boxes in the room in search for the first aid kit. As soon as she finds it, she kneeled in front of him and unconsciously ċȧrėssed the side she knew was hit awhile aback. 

Her actions made the man froze on the spot. She should know that her simple touch sends playful electricity all over his body! He deeply swallowed allowing Jade to see his Adams apple move.

The woman stopped the urge to gulp as well. Marcus didn't know that his simple swallowing is already seducing the woman. She could feel his body reacts to him and her core below is already wet from wanting to eat the man!

The room suddenly becomes hot but the woman tried her best to stop the dėsɨrės of her flesh. 

"Ouch! Gentler!" The man winced in pain. Little did he know that the woman purposely did it to shake the lascivious atmosphere between them. 

"Jess is a good man…" The woman started to speak. "He is a man who doesn't easily hurt someone even if he has a valid reason to do it. Please try to get along with him and don't cause any more trouble. There are eyes everywhere and I don't like the kids to witness something like this again."

"Are you blaming me now?" Marcus felt a bit upset. Seems like his woman is siding the perpetrator. "I was hit but I am still to be blamed. Amazing!" He pouted in frustrated. 

"That's not what I said." She glared at him before placing a small band aid to cover the wound. "You must have said something that have greatly offended him." She raised her brow at him as if waiting for him to say it out. 

Marcus looked away from her scrutinizing gaze. She said she's not blaming him but her eyes do! 

"Stop pestering the man." She clearly warned him. "And you… you should go back to the city. I know you don't like the idea of wearing my pants all throughout the three days' mission."

"That's fine. It won't hurt my image if I keep using your stuffs. You're my wife anyway." He teasingly grinned.

"Shut up!" She unknowingly hit the man on his ċhėst. "Don't you ever mention that to anyone while you're here. I already signed the divorce paper and if you did not file it then that is your problem not mine." She was about to stand up but Marcus immediately wrapped his feet around her waist. 

She feels like a prisoner who couldn't get away from this big man. She keeps wiggling to break free but her strength is no match to his. 

"You know your effort is in vain so why don't you just stop and we'll talk." The man smiled as if he was having fun while watching her winced. 

"We do not have anything to talk to. It's all over for us now." The woman stopped resisting. 

"It's not over yet and I know you feel it too…." Marcus' voice suddenly became hoarse as if he's trying to invite the woman in bed. "Don't lie, tell me you still feel the pull… am I right?" Marcus bends closer to the woman's face. Then he gently touches the woman's jaw and guided her head to look at him in the eyes.

"Marcus… Stop i-----" She wanted to stop the man from advancing more but too late, Marcus suddenly captured her lips. 

He is kissing her---- hungrily!
