The Girl He Craves novel (Sophie and Aiden) novel Chapter 69

Aiden’s pov

I wasn’t sure why I was holding her like she was a fragile doll. I wasn’t sure why holding her felt so….good. Why it almost feels like a necessity to have her in my arms…..

I shook my head. I’m thinking way too much recently, especially when it comes to her.

She shifts in my arms, her sweet smell reaching my nose, and unashamed, I took in a long whiff.

I’m aware that most if not all of my employees eyes were suddenly very keen on me. They were no doubt shocked to see me carrying her inside the building.

With the way I carried myself around, cold and bossy, it didn’t surprise me by their sudden reaction. Honestly, I was expecting it.

I just didn’t care what they thought, I was the one paying them anyway so it would be best if they keep their thoughts and gossip to themselves.

“Okay, my feet feel much better now.” Sophie said when we stop inches from the elevator.

A smirk tug on my lips when I press the button and waited for the doors to slide open while keeping her in my arms still.

Sure I was doing this to annoy her but I also didn’t want to let her go yet.

Sophie and I may not see eye to eye at the moment but it’s clear that I am still attracted to her even after everything that went down between us.

I stepped into the empty elevator and pressed my floor button.

“Aiden,” Sophie, huffs, looking up at me with a glare.

I peer down at her when the elevator doors ding shut. With a curving grin on my face, I asked. “What?”

I played dumbfounded and nearly chuckled when her eyes grew dark with irritation.

“I said my feet are better now and I can be placed down on the floor, thank you.” She huffed.

I let her glare at me for a couple more seconds, enjoying this way too much than I should.

There was just something about that sudden spark of fire Sophie now had that both intrigued and turned me on even more than before. Which I thought was impossible to gain such a feeling and reaction when she did something so cruel to me.

It was still crazy to think that we shared a whole human being. We created one. Me and her.

I would’ve probably been more out of the fucking moon, happy as hell about sharing genes with her if she hadn’t decided to keep him away from my knowledge.

Don’t get me wrong, even though she did something so cruel to me, she was still the only woman I’d ever actually want to

have my kid.

Teenager Aiden was still inside me after all. I was still mad at her, furious about her decision.

But there was nothing that could be done now about it, and at some point, I would have to move on from the fact that she had done this to me. But for now, I should still make her pay a’ little bit.

Not too extreme now that she is the mother of my child. But make her pay nonetheless for practically betraying me.

“What are you smirking about?” She asked with an accusing tone.

I hadn’t realized that I was smirking until she pointed it out.

“Nothing,” I said with a shrug and place her down on her feet before she could skim for more. questions.

She was always a curious little thing which was one of the reasons I teased her in high school, aside from the fact that just always needed to talk to her.

Her nose does that cute wiggle thing and she rolled her eyes yet doesn’t question me about it again.

“I can’t believe you actually forced me here when I’m looking like a bozo.” She whined when she caught her reflection on the elevator door.

She looked hot to me. Sexy with the way the shorts fit her snuggly and don’t get me started on the way that top squished her boobs that got even bigger now after high school.

Now I know why she had more ass, more hips, and more breasts. Sophie had my kid. I nearly damn chuckle out loud when it hit me that what I dreamed of in high school when I thought about her came true. I smiled at the thought of how my sixteen year old self would be jumping up and down right now.

Only that….

:

The smile left my face when I remembered that she still chose to keep him away from me.

“Seriously, you really could have made me change my clothes Aiden. I look like someone who just got out of bed! And everyone was looking at us.” She continued to whine. “Just imagine what they’re saying now.”

Her words pulled me out of my draining thoughts and I looked over at her when the elevator doors slide open.

“You’re overdramatic. Glad to see much hasn’t changed.” | snorted and stepped out.

Feeling her burning glare on my back I turned around and raised a brow. “Do you want me to hold your hand to step out?” I asked with a bit of a tease in my voice.

I’m clearly losing the act of being extremely angry with her. The more I try to force myself to hate her the more | just…..can’t.

Sophie’s glare turned darker and she rolled her eyes. “Of course not. I’m not a child.” She snapped and stepped out of the lift.

She walks past me and I couldn’t resist when my eyes fell on her round cute ass. Damn. She really filled out in all the right places.

I snorted. “You act like one. Who throws a tantrum when they’re being gifted a new car?”

She whirls around to shoot a death stare my way.

She may have thought she looked intimidating. But she looked far from it. Sophie was cute, angry or not, she was one of those girls who couldn’t look ugly even if they tried.

“You didn’t gift me that car! You got rid of my car without my permission and thought you can just replace it like I don’t have a say in anything!” She snapped.

Well she really did a lot of snapping today.

I laughed at her angry face inwardly and started to walk away while taunting over my shoulder.

“And here you go again, throwing another tantrum. Such a little kid.”

“Don’t refer to me as a kid Aiden! I’m not a child!” She sneered and I heard her soft padding footsteps following behind me closely. I had an inkling she was contemplating if to slam her palm on my shoulder or not.

I turned around, my hand in my pockets. She halts abruptly, almost knocking into me.

I tilt my head as I studied her, my eyes roaming her figure slowly as I drink in the sight of her. Her breasts were pushing against the top and her legs were long and creamy.

Ismirked when I lift my eyes and they connected with hers. “You’re right, you don’t look like a kid.”

I took a step forward and leaned down. “But I can still be your daddy.”
