With an effort Tang restrained himself and turned to go . When he reached the top of the staircase, he stopped to look back . She saw standing there, watching him . That"s it! It was as if his control broke . Walking swiftly, he covered the distance between them in quick, long strides .

Upon reaching her, he swooped down hungrily and covered her mouth with his own . Entangling his urgent fingers through her hair, he didn"t give her any width to move even a centimetre . He pushed her against the door and poured his entire yearning through that kiss . He rubbed his lips against hers, sucked them, laved them . . . feasted on them .

Jia Li whimpered .

Her senses were reeling . His hot mouth still held the lingering taste of the wine and it was intoxicating .

Tang"s sense of urgency abated a little when he felt that she wasn"t pus.h.i.+ng him away . His insecure need was tamped down by her unsure yet unresisting response . He relaxed the grip in her hair and angled her head slightly to get better access to her lips . Nibbling the upper lip, he was savouring it like a forbidden delicacy . He flicked his tongue against her teeth, seeking permission to enter . When she resisted, he slowly travelled towards her plump, lower lip . The inner beast in him wanted to pounce and extract the entire s.e.xiness from the ruby red glistening pearl .

But he reigned it in . Letting the antic.i.p.ation build, he allowed Jia Li the opportunity and the choice to close the infinitely small distance between their mouths . She stood there, heart thundering in her ears . Her breath remained hitched . Why had he stopped? The realisation hit her as soon as she asked herself the question and any lingering reluctance melted away at his gesture .

Since when had he turned into a master seducer? She stretched her toes and reached up to pull his lip between her teeth . Nipping them gently, she flicked them with her tongue, giving him a taste of his own medicine .

Tang"s legs nearly buckled under the innocent siren"s little stunt . Not willing to wait any longer, he pulled her into his embrace, letting her feel his entire body throbbing for her . A tremor went through her . She was finding it harder by the minute to keep a check on her sanity . If just being held by him could reduce her to this, she shuddered to think beyond .

"I… we… I think we should… I mean…" she struggled to find coherent words .

He knew what she was trying to say and though his body was aghast at his decision, he took a step back .

He placed her head against his chest and said, "I am going to leave now . I won"t look back because if I do, I may end up surrendering to this explosive chemistry between us . I want you to promise me that you will take care of yourself, not overwork and most importantly, stay happy . And yes, start replying to my mails, they feel lonely . "

His words reverberated and travelled from his chest to her ears . She gave a small nod . Tang pushed her away gently and looked at her one last time before leaving .


Jia Li stood leaning against her door, long after he had left .

"What am I going to do? What do I want to do?" the questions kept cras.h.i.+ng against her mind and came back without any answers .

"Welcome back, Mr . soon to-be Groom . How does it feel?" Jia Li greeted Eric the next morning .

He gave her a cheery grin and said, "top of the world, my girl!"

Hui walked up to them at the same time and congratulated Eric once again .

"Uh, any idea as to why does the receptionist seem out of sort? Is she unwell or something? Does she need any help?" Hui asked them .

Jia Li had always held the suspicion that Camilla harboured a deep liking for Eric . It was confirmed this morning when she saw her giving a frosty greeting to Eric as he had walked into the office . Jia Li had entered just before him and managed to witness the scene . He had looked at the receptionist"s expressions in askance but then shrugged and moved on .

She was surrounded by clueless men! Hastening to a.s.sure her boss that there was nothing wrong with the poor woman, she told him that maybe she was coming down with a bug or something .

"You better stay away from her, Ms . Lin and that"s a direct order," he exclaimed immediately .

Jia Li looked at him in surprise . His reaction seemed slightly extreme but it hit her the next moment . Since she was working in close contact with him now, maybe he didn"t want the illness to reach upto him . Gosh, clueless and eccentric!!

Murmuring her acquiesce, she went to her work station .With an effort Tang restrained himself and turned to go . When he reached the top of the staircase, he stopped to look back .
