Veronica CEO's Underworld Queen novel Chapter 17

　　Two days later.

　　Veronica walked out of the elevator and went on her way to her own suite. She stopped to check her bag for her room card when suddenly, she heard a loud thump from the elevator besides hers. When she turned around to check, her eyes widened in surprise.

　　"President, please, we're almost at your suite"' Veronica saw another familiar man who was trying to lift up the said wasted man on the floor. The man turned to look at her and Veronica was observing if the Secretary of the man could still recognize her. The man removed his sight from her right away because of the sudden pressure he felt the 'wasted' man on the floor gave off.

　　Veronica was about to walk away seeing as there's no recognition that can be seen from the eyes of the Secretary towards her feeling half relieved, half disappointed because that also meant the wasted man does not recognize her as well. She

　　"Excuse me Miss!"

　　Veronica halted and waited. "Could I ask for help from you? I really have to check down because the hotel staff just called, urging me to park our car. Sorry, it was my boss who drove it and parked it in the middle of the hotel entrance causing trouble for others. Would you mind looking over my boss? I'll return right away after I park the car properly. Thanks!!"

　　Secretary Ryan said in a hurried voice and of course, with how they secure and contain the hotel, boarded the elevator down right away.

　　Veronica wildly turned around after hearing the words of the secretary and her eyes widened seeing the just closed elevator, leaving her and the 'wasted' man alone.

　　Dumbfounded for a moment, she decided to walk away as come on, who and what in hell was that secretary guy thinking to trust his boss to a stranger?!

　　Even if she's a woman, does that Secretary weren't scared at all that she might use that as an opportunity to seduce his boss?

　　The idea made her grin as she once again stopped after hearing a groan from the wasted man. Veronica was conflicted. True, after all, both of them are still and by de facto, strangers with each other but on her part, it wasn't because, damn it, she knew very well who that wasted man is.

　　That man is Rawl Sy! And he is the father of her children!

　　The thought of her most treasured twins softened her heart for their father and Veronica couldn't help herself but turned around to help the wasted man.

　　``Hey, you sober up?" Veronica asked as she saw the man trying to stand up. "Hey!" Veronica was quick to respond when he was about to fall. He ended up resting on her shoulder as she

　　caught him before he fell back. Good thing her training made her stronger, the man is very heavy and if she wasn't any physically fit, both of them could have already glorified the floor with their fallen bodies.

　　The man, if she measured correctly, was a six footer and her height was too short for him and yet, here he is, relying his upper body on her left shoulder and she has to admit it, his breath with a tinge of alcohol raised all her body hairs and the close contact just made her trembled. 'Damn it', she thought as she tried to stabilize him on her shoulder. Wrong move as it made his face closer to her neck, making the man directly breath on it and she felt like he's teasing her

　　through it.

　　She was about to remove him off her and just make him sit on the floor until his Secretary arrived but he suddenly outmaneuvered her and his hand clung to her waist. Now if someone was to look at both of them, they looked like a couple embracing in the middle of the hallway as the man tenderly rested his head on her neck while he tightly snaked his arm around the woman's slender waist.

　　"Room." Veronica heard him say.

　　"We'll have to wait for your subordinate first." Veronica replied. "Hey wait!' Hey"

　　Veronica was hopeless when the man started to walk in a groggy manner carrying her with him. "I said we'll have to wait for your secretary to send you to your room!" Veronica raised her voice to wake him up from his drunken state.

　　The man suddenly raised his head and looked at her. Their eyes met. Veronica couldn't tell if it's some sort of hypnotism as she couldn't take her eyes off him and he at the same time was intensely staring at her. "What-?!" Veronica was surprised when he straightened up and pushed her softly on the wall with both his arms securing her back and waist.

　　Veronica by instinct put her hand both on his shoulders as they continue the intense eye to eye contact. It's a battlefield between them. Both eyes communicate the language of a man's state of nature guided by instinct and when the intensity reached that certain degree, the man dived straight at her lips.

　　Veronica couldn't rationalize but understood the intensity of her sexual attraction for the man. After many years, it proved to have never faded but rather just took its rest until she was once again to meet him.

　　Heaven! He's even more magnificently handsome. She is still very much familiar with those sets of deep- seated eyes that were enough to stir chaos within her core. He was, as she remembered, dominant, aggressive and beastly. That's how he also kissed and ravaged her mouth and she could only let him do it, it's her body answering back. Oh heavens she missed and longed for those kisses.

　　His hands started to roam all over her body and after realizing they are still outside for everyone's eyes, her rationality returned and pushed him suddenly. He seemed to have been unaffected and was about to kiss her once again but she put a finger on his lips as she said in a dominant tone,"My room."
