Charlotte's POV

He raised his eyebrow, amused. "Why not?! We are co-partners; we can be bff as well." He commented and winked at me.

I heaved a loud sigh, ruffling my hair, and sat down beside him. I bit my lower lip, staring at my empty glass. I closed my eyes, breathing deeply, and started explaining without even knowing why I was telling him about my personal life.

He sighed, running his hand through his hair, and stated firmly as I finished telling him about what happened between Nathan and me. "Deep down in your heart, you don't really love him. It is an obsession. You are used to getting what you want. So you became stubborn about him because he resists you. You should just move on."

"How dare you!" I exclaimed angrily.

"It is true, koukla mou." He said arrogantly as he opened the bottle and sipped from it.

"I didn't ask your opinion." I stated, annoyed and barely stood up. I leaned my hand against the wall for support as my head spun.

"Are you okay?" Alexis asked, worried as he stood up quickly and wrapped his arm around my waist, holding me against his body firmly.

"Yes, just the Earth is spinning and it makes me dizzy." I chuckled in amusement.

He pursed his lips together, trying to hold his smile. "I will drop you off your penthouse." He said firmly, tightening his grip around my waist.

I leaned towards him, resting my hand on his chest while my nostrils filled his intoxicating smell. I bit my lower lip, looking into his ocean blue eyes. His intense gaze was making my legs weak. Without managing to control myself, I rested my hand on the back of his neck, pulling him towards me, and brushed my lips against his lips.

I felt his body tensed up against me as he tightened his grip around my waist, kissing me back. I ran my hand through his hair and deepened the kiss, pressing myself against his bulge.

"You are drunk, Charlotte." He commented hoarsely as he pulled back.

"And?" I asked seductively as I started unbuttoning his shirt slowly. "You told me I didn't love Nathan. So I think maybe we should try to check if you are right or not." I added provocatively and placed a soft kiss on his bare chest before continuing unbuttoning his shirt.

He grabbed my wrists and pulled my arms back. He buttoned his shirt quickly and sighed, running his hand through his hair.

"Charlotte, I will drop you off your place. You have to rest." Alexis stated firmly.

"No, I don't want to rest. I want to have fun." I winked at him and ran my tongue over my lower lip, looking at him lustfully.

He gulped as I felt his body tensed up. "Let's go."

"Oh. I understood. You want to go somewhere else; so no one will disturb us. Great! Let's go." I gave him a seductive smirk.

He rolled his eyes and grabbed my clutch before wrapping his arm around my waist, pulling me towards him. I grinned and hugged him, leaning my head against his chest, listening to his pounding heart while he led me towards the door.

As soon as we walked into my penthouse, I kicked off my shoes and walked away from him slightly. I gave him a devilish grin and removed the straps of my dress, letting my mini dress slide down after unzipping it. His jaw dropped as he looked at me, full of desire in his eyes.

"So?" I asked seductively and walked towards him in slow steps.

"Charlotte, you are drunk." He muttered without managing to take his eyes off me.

"Yes, you mentioned it about thirty minutes ago." I winked at him, wrapping my arms around his neck.

He gulped uncomfortably and pulled my arms away. Then he took off his suit jacket quickly and put it around my shoulder.

"You have to rest." He stated firmly and dragged me towards my bedroom. I snuggled up his chest, smiling sheepishly.

I took off his jacket, ignoring his protest, and lay down on the bed.

"Don't stand there. Join me." I said seductively and bit my lower lip, looking at my troubled Greek god.

Alexis heaved a loud sigh as he grabbed the blanket on my bed and pulled it over my body. I yawned, ruffling my hair, and tried to keep my eyes open barely.

"Join me." I mumbled and yawned again, trying not to fall asleep.

"Sweet dreams, koukla mou." He whispered and placed a soft kiss on my forehead.

"Alexis..." I muttered before closing my eyes.

Alexis's POV

Once Charlotte fell asleep, I grabbed my jacket and left her penthouse despite the fact my body was fighting with me, wanting to stay with my temptress and keep her awake till morning. However, I couldn't do it; I didn't want to take advantage of her state. Firstly, it was wrong, and secondly, it would ruin my plans.

As soon as I got in my car, I looked at my bulge and sighed, shaking my head. Then I started the car and went to Rebecca's apartment.

I was sitting on the couch without stopping myself from thinking about Charlotte and her sexy body while waiting for Rebecca to bring a glass of whiskey.

"Baby." Rebecca interrupted my thoughts and extended the glass towards me.

"Thanks." I muttered as I grabbed the glass and drank it in a sip.

"Are you okay?" She asked, concerned and sat down on my lap.

"Yeah." I mumbled, playing with the sash of her mini silk robe.

Rebecca gave me a seductive look and leaned towards my ear. "I hope you aren't tired." She commented provocatively and pulled my earlobe between her lips.

I grabbed a handful of her hair, pulling her head back, and smashed my lips against her lips. I untied her sash and took off her robe as I moved my lips from her lips to her neck. She moaned, gripping my hair as I bit her neck.

After getting rid of her red nightie, I scooped her up in my arms and carried her to the bedroom while kissing each other passionately.

After placing her on the bed, I took off my clothes and hovered over her. I reclaimed her lips while my hand was roaming her body. She moaned as I pressed my hard bulge against her core.

I pulled back slightly, out of breath and looked at her, stroking her cheek affectionately.

"Koukla mou." I mumbled as my favorite blue eyes stared at me. "Den boró na stamatíso na se skéftome." I added honestly and placed kisses on her neck and shoulder. (I can't stop thinking about you.)

"I like when you talk in Greek."

I instantly pulled back as I heard Rebecca's voice. I swallowed hard, looking at her, dumbfounded.

"What happened?" She asked, puzzled as she cupped my cheek.

"Nothing." I muttered and closed my eyes, cursing in Greek with my inner voice.

She smiled, resting her hand on the back of my neck, and pulled me towards her. I smashed my lips against her lips while being angry at myself without stopping myself from thinking about Charlotte. I couldn't still believe that her face popped in my mind while I was having sex with Rebecca.

What was she doing to me?! Why can't I stop thinking about Charlotte since my eyes laid on her for the first time? Even when I didn't know her properly, I had been thinking of her. I couldn't get those mesmerizing eyes out of my mind.

If it wasn't enough, now I couldn't stop fantasizing about her while I had sex with another woman.

***

I was staring at the ceiling, my arm under my head while Rebecca was sleeping, resting her head on my chest. The Sun was rising slowly, lightening the dark room.

I sighed, irritated and pulled Rebecca's arm away carefully, trying not to wake her up. I got up quietly and walked towards the bedroom, yawning. I couldn't sleep properly last night. Every time I closed my eyes, Charlotte's face appeared in front of me.

After taking a shower, I wrapped a towel around my waist and went back to the bedroom.

"Good morning." Rebecca gave me a wide smile and placed a soft kiss on my lips.

"Morning." I mumbled, dying my hair with another towel.

"I will make you breakfast." She said warmly and left after putting on her robe.

I was buttoning my shirt when my phone buzzed. I grabbed it and looked at the phone. It was a message from Charlotte.

I took a deep breath, running my hand through my hair, and opened the message.

'Good morning. Sorry for yesterday. I feel embarrassed. I hope you don't think I am a crazy bitch. I don't have a good relationship with alcohol. So I hope we can forget about yesterday. I apologize. I will buy you a cup of coffee as an apology. See you at the agency.

Your embarrassed co-partner.'

I grinned, amused and shook my head.

'Good morning. How are you? Don't worry. However, I can't say no to a cup of coffee. Especially this morning. See you.'

After sending the message, I grabbed my jacket and left the apartment after lying to Rebecca, saying I had to go to the agency urgently.
