Chapter 71: Home To You...

(Kira’s POV)

________

With my heart thudding incessantly in my chest, I sped through the Paragon Gates, causing the security to jump out of the way as I swerved my way in. With my skilled control of the wheel, I didn’t let up on the speed until I got to my house, and then with a jerk of the gear, I spun the car into my compound. Bringing it to a shuddering halt.

I turned off the engine at once and grabbed my purse from the passenger seat. I then hurried out of the car. With my keycard, I unlocked the door. The lighting inside had been significantly dimmed. There was no one in the living room. However, I found Lena’s laptop there. It was open and still on.

"Babe..." I called as I tossed my purse onto the couch closest to me. "I’m home."

I slowly made my way to the laptop and when I checked the screen, I saw a folder titled, Joan’s Footage. I felt my heart skip a beat. This was the footage Joan had sent Lena. She had not been lying when she told me that she was about to watch it. Had she watched it after all? What did she see in the video?

I let out a deep breath as I walked out of the living room, calling Lena. She wasn’t in the bedroom, but when I finally made it to the kitchen, I found her. She was wearing a headset and singing along to music that was playing. She also danced as she sliced some onions and tomatoes.

I stood at the door for a while, watching her move and gyrate freely without any restrictions. She was beautiful in every way, I couldn’t believe that I had allowed the bitch Zayn to mess with my mind. This was something I got to come back home to, I couldn’t trade it for anything at all. Not in a billion years.

I walked closer to her and slowly wrapped my arms around her waist, hugging her tightly. She froze up at first, then she relaxed into my embrace. She took off her headset as she turned in my arms and wrapped her arms around my neck.

"What took you so long?" She asked.

I smirked, remembering how I had driven like a maniac just to come be with her. In fact, I had almost crashed into two cars due to how fast I was going. But I said nothing as I simply held onto her and kissed her deeply. She kissed me with as much fervor, moaning against my mouth as she leaned further into my embrace.

"Nothing can keep me away from you, babe," I said after a while.

She slowly leaned away from me and scratched her head.

"What are you cooking?" I asked her.

"Honestly, I have no idea. You wanted me to cook, so I’m cooking. You wanted a homecooked meal, didn’t you?"

I felt a pang of conscience hit me, I had only said that so that it would delay her long enough for me to get back. Now that I was home, my mind was on the open laptop in the living room. I needed to watch the footage without her present. But first, I needed to know if she had seen it.

"Of course I do." I glanced around at all the ingredients she had prepared, "This is a lot, you didn’t watch the footage after all did you? If not you would not have come this far."

"You told me not to watch it alone, and that’s what I did."

I stepped back from her, she was so sweet, and I definitely didn’t deserve her.

"You did well," I muttered as I began to step away, I needed her to remain in the kitchen while I went to watch the footage. "Now, I’ll go freshen up a bit, I’ve had quite a long day, you know?"

"You’re going to tell me all about it," she told me. "Especially why the fuck you were at the stadium. My love, who did you go there to see?"

I raised my eyebrow at her as I stopped, "uhm... like I told you on the phone, it’s a long story."

"Yeah... but then, just as I’m telling you now, we have the rest of the night to ourselves. There is enough time to tell me all the gist of how your day went and what exactly you’ve been planning in that head of yours. Unless of course, you still want to spend the night watching the bloody footage."

I stopped then, thinking about it. With a sigh, I could see that I wasn’t going to watch the footage just yet. Not while Lena was active and about. And then, seeing as I had explicitly told her not to watch it without me, if she caught me doing exactly that, she would not take it lightly at all. I cursed in my head, a bit angry at the dilemma I had placed myself into. It was as if I had opened my eyes and walked right into this hole and so far, everything I did or said only made it worse.

Now, Lena was asking how my day went, and knowing her, she would want details and the full gist. This was beginning to look like the moment where I would lie to my girlfriend. I knew I couldn’t tell her about Zayn, least of all the fact that she kissed me or in her twisted mind, I still have feelings for her. While I could tell her about my trip to the stadium, I couldn’t tell her about the demands that Scott had made for him to scoot over to my side.

I had made so many heavy decisions today, many of which I knew Lena wouldn’t like. But then, what was I to do? I was going to be the bloody CEO of one of the biggest studios in the world, I had to get comfortable with making the tough decisions because I could see that no one was going to make them for me. Jace was out there doing his thing and doing what was best for Chillz, why couldn’t I do the same? Why couldn’t I go all out when it came to securing my birthright?

"Babe?" I heard Lena call me and it snapped me back to the kitchen, I couldn’t believe that for a few moments, I had drifted away.

She stepped closer to me, looking genuinely concerned, "babe, are you okay?"

I sucked in a deep breath as I nodded, "yeah, I’m fine. I’ll go freshen up now."

Watching the footage would have to wait, for now, I simply wanted to make my baby happy. I didn’t want her to suspect anything or even be sad for a moment. Because I knew that soon, my decisions would catch up to me and when that happened, she would be hurt. I was looking to make sure that when that happened, leaving me would not be an option for her.

And just like I promised, I went straight to the bathroom, taking off my clothes as I made my way there. By the time I got there, I was already stark naked. I liked the water cold and it washed all over me. The bite was enough to reset my brain and I felt alive once more. By the time I was done, I felt better than I had felt in a very long time.

I wore my nighties and returned to the kitchen, by then, Lena was done preparing the ingredients and was already cooking. The aroma of her food was thick in the air and it was heavenly. I went to hug her once more, planting a deep kiss at the nape of her neck, causing her to moan slightly.

"Have I told you about how much I love your cooking?" I whispered against her ear.

She chuckled as she leaned into me, letting my voluptuous breasts caress her back, "you know I can never get tired of getting compliments from you."

"Of course, I can give you compliments every second of every day if that will make you happy. I love your cooking, the special attention to detail that you pay always baffles me. I love your heart, the part of you that chose me over and over again. I love the rest of your body, the way it quivers for me every single time with every little touch."

Lena turned then, she wrapped her arms around me for the second time that night, I could see the look in her eyes. They were mischievous and glazed with passion.

"I thought you’re cooking, you don’t want your food to burn, do you?"

She pursed her lips, "That’s the only reason I won’t jump you right now. But then, when we’re done eating. I want you to fuck my brains silly. Can you do that for me?"

I stepped closer to her, and lifted her by her soft butts before placing her on the counter, "want a preview of just what I can do tonight?"

I kissed her then, more fiercely than before. She kissed me back, her hands immediately grabbing my tits and squeezing them. I turned her next to the side, letting my teeth graze lightly at the nape of her neck, this caused her to shiver slightly. She then leaned in and began to suck my nipples, taking them one after the other with so much fervor.

I hugged her closer to myself, pushing her head against my breasts, letting them nestle there while she kept sucking as if her entire being depended on it. While she did that, my hands began to snake up her skirt, leaving a trail of heat as it powered on toward the cleft between her thighs.

However, just before I was about to slip a finger in, my phone buzzed beside me. That seemed to break the spell because Lena pulled away with a chuckle, "I said after dinner."

I nodded with a smile of my own, "You’re right."

I gave her one final kiss as I picked up my phone, "give me a minute."

I didn’t want her to see that my smile was fake, my good feeling had vanished the minute my phone buzzed because I knew at once who it was. Maven was back, and he had sent me yet another text.

I went to the bedroom, closing the door behind me for privacy. I then opened the message; when I read it, I felt my heart give a lurch. The message was direct, and I could see that Maven meant business. It read;

"Are You Ready For Your First Mission?"

Was I ever going to be rid of this guy?
