Wing Of Change
Chapter 13

With his hands holding on to her face gently, he urged her to look at him. prying her eyes open_Aria could barely keep it focus when she looked up at him.

“Are you sure about this? Because it might not end here” His voice was husky as he whispered those words at her.

Aria only gave a shrug in reply.

Tilting her head a bit to the side to enable him access, he attached his warm lips against her soft and anticipating ones.

Aria didn’t respond at first because she was clueless on what to do next. She just stood there with her eyes close and kept enjoying the warmth her lips have been blessed with.

Frank who finally realized what could be going on quickly her pinned against his car and began to devour her lips with utmost hunger.

Her lips felt soft and creamy when he nimbled on it while trying to obtain entrance into her mouth and when he finally did_there was an intoxicating taste of alcohol in her buds that kept pulling him in even more and causing him to deepen the k**s.

Aria quickly found herself falling into the rhythm of his lips against hers as she had both arms wrapped firmly around his neck to keep herself from falling over.

They both wanted more in that moment of passionate Bliss!

It was as if something magical_something bigger than the both of them has taken control of their sense of reasoning.

Aria was already intoxicated and lost contact with her moral standing while Frank on the other hand was having an internal battle within himself, he still couldn’t get a grip on himself as he was failing miserably.

He kept devouring those addictive lips of hers that kept pulling him in with each taste against his own will.

A sudden sense of guilt finally flashed at the back of his hazed mind before he finally pulled away from her.

He needed to control his emotions or he might as well rip her clothes off right there and have her in the parking lot that seemed pretty much deserted at the moment but he knew better than that.

No matter how badly he wanted her, Frank knew she deserved better and he was going to show her a better him.

They both stood at an arm distance catching their breath while staring at each other with l**t and longing even though a single word was not said.

Aria feeling’s were bare before his eyes and he could read right through them.

They both wanted more in that moment as their feelings were being communicated through that k**s they shared.

“You want to go somewhere other than your place?” Frank had asked after a while. He sounded a bit skeptical at first because he wasn’t sure if she’d agreed to it.

“Yes_” Aria had answered with a giggle.

“Let go then”

Frank could barely keep his hands to himself even as he drove home with Aria in the passenger seat that night.

His fingers were seriously itching to be in contact with that of Aria’s, whose hand were resting against her thighs.

His eye darting at her direction just to catch a glimpse of her face that was half shadowed by the yellow street light pouring in through the window.

Her brown skin that was almost olive was glittering as well under the same light. Frank wondered why he was just noticing all the features about her tonight when she had worked beside him for six years prior.

His mind couldn’t help but wandered back to the k**s they had shared feverishly at the parking lot and smiled to himself.

Aria’s lips were just as soft as he had imagined it to be when they had first made contact with his in a hurry.

Frank still couldn’t believe they had just shared an intimate moment not long ago!_was he dreaming?

Who could have thought his shy and timid of an assistant had a thing for him and even more shocking that he could be reciprocating the same feeling as well.

Damn!

He reached over the hand gear and grab hold of her hand and gave it a slight squeeze when he couldn’t resist the urge any more.

A little gasp had escaped her lips at the hand contact. She turned quickly and stared at him only to have him staring right at the growing traffic up ahead.

Aria only looked down at her hands that was held between his with a smile on her face._and even in her dazed mind, Aria was happy at the gesture as she continued to stare at him through those dimming eyes that was starting to loose focus all together.

There was something different about that particular night. Maybe it was the alcohol or just maybe_something else had shifted in the atmosphere around them and Aria was beginning to see him differently for the first time in her life.

Aria couldn’t help but wonder if he was someone else or still the same Frank Okoji who was allergic to smiles and little talk.

It must be the alcohol because she could have swore she just saw him smile.

Damn alcohol! Does things to your mind and make you have silly imagination.

It wasn’t entirely the alcohol doing because Frank was genuinely happy that night as he kept stealing glance at her direction even as they continued to drive in silent.

His signature frown was nowhere to be seen. He was relaxed and at peace. Just deep in concentration or maybe just his subtle way of avoiding eye contact with her at the moment.

Aria’s head was rolled back against the seat rest with her eyes closed. Her side window was rolled down after being stucked in traffic for an hour. Strains of hair from her ponytail began to dance freely on her face due to the night breeze.

That night turned out better than she thought it would be._that feeling of restrictions and holding back was being blown away with the winds as new thought of freedom was spouting within the depth of her soul.

Aria might be as drunk as a duck that night but she was free of worries as she began to drift slowly and quietly into a silent slumber.
