“Yes, and you’re supposedly my wife,” He flashed his passport at her with a grin.
“Aren’t you a little bit too old for me?” Rhea teased him, stepping closer.
“Age doesn’t matter, the inner beauty does,” He answered her, turning around to check his own luggage when she struck.
With great speed, Rhea reached for his neck only for Elijah to suddenly turn around and grab her hand before she could touch him.
“Nice reflexes you got there,” Rhea was out of breath. She had not expected Elijah to react on time when all she wanted was to see his real face.
“We really need to start working on your trust issues,” Elijah said, staring at her heaving chest.
“I just want to see what you look like,” was her excuse.
“And I promised that you would in due time. I never fail my promises, Aria, yet you’ve broken another of your promises and you need to be punished. Again,”
“Punish?” Her eyes grew wide and before Rhea could react, Elijah had already pushed her up against the pillar by his side.
He grabbed both of her hands, lifted them, and pinned them above her head, while his other hand traveled down to her waist and grabbed her bottom.
Rhea let out a sharp breath as he continued to feel and squeeze her backside. Then his leg parted her knees as his hand slipped into her dress. He rubbed her through her panties causing a tremor to go through her.
“Elijah…” Rhea moaned his name, her head lulling back. He knew how to work her body like the strings of a guitar.
Then his hand slid into her panties and through her opening. Rhea cried out in pleasure and Elijah was delighted to see that she was wet for him.
The air thickened and was hot, Rhea felt like she was on fire as he continued to move against her. Her legs felt like jelly and it was surprising to know she was still on her feet.
Rhea was already close to the edge when he stopped moving inside of her and her eyes flew open in alarm. Was this the punishment he was talking about?
“Elijah, please….” Rhea cried out, moving her hips to his touch to get to the edge but he hindered her move.
“Do you need it that much?” He intentionally teased her.
“Yes,” Rhea breathed unashamedly. Days ago, if someone had told her that she would be the one to beg a man to touch her, she would never believe it.
Rhea was not shy but reserved nor was she a fan of public display of affection. It all seemed superficial to her, but now, she could finally understand. When you meet the one you care about, the world could go to hell as long as you care.
“Then answer this one question,” He drew closer, till their bodies were pressed together, “Who do you belong to?” Elijah asked, his gaze darkening with desire.
Rhea mirrored his look because she was not far off either. Her eyes were hooded, with her body pulsing with need as she said, huskily, “It’s you, Elijah. I belong to no one else but you,”
“Good girl,” He said, resuming his touch and adding another finger inside of her.
Rhea’s breath quickened and her moans became louder when one of his fingers slightly penetrated her while the other rubbed circles around her clit. She didn’t just orgasm, Rhea combusted, trembling violently in his arms when he finally let go.
“That’s my girl,” Elijah said, running her hand through her hair as she slumped against him, trying to catch her breath.
“Don’t worry, very soon, we’d be far away from the problem of this world,” He murmured, a strong glint in Elijah’s eyes as he thought of their future together.
“Don’t show your nervousness,”
“Huh?” Rhea was startled by his statement and that was when she looked down to discover that her hands were shaking because he placed his hands gently over it.
“Oh. thank you,” Rhea let out a deep breath. You couldn’t blame her for being nervous though, many things could go wrong today. She was using a fake passport and the man beside her was wearing a mask for freaking sake. Gosh, when did she become like this?
“I’m always here with you. That’s all you have to know. Moreover, the first rule of being a villain is to act like you’re invincible,” Elijah said to her.
“Okay. Wait – what?!” Rhea was shocked. When did she become a villain? However Elijah didn’t let her think because he grabbed her face and kissed her briefly.
“I think this has just become my favorite mask,” He said with a smile.
“And I think we have finally arrived,” Rhea announced just as the driver of the limousine stepped down to open the door for her, Elijah stepping out by himself.
How Elijah was able to pull this all up while at home with her? Rhea couldn’t tell. However, she was sure of one thing, Elijah had the resources.
“Here,” He helped her put on the glasses before producing a summer hat out of nowhere which he placed on her head.
…..
“Hmmm, a magician as well. You’re a man of many talents, Elijah,” Rhea teased him, hooking her arm around his as they walked into the airport.
Rhea knew the reason for the glasses and hat, it was to keep her identity a secret from others who might be snooping around. Elijah said it himself, being here was a risk itself.
Since they had done an online check-in, Rhea and Elijah headed straight to the first-class security checkpoint where they were attended to immediately.
The both of them were in the departure lounge when Rhea felt the need to use the restroom.
“I would be back soon,” Rhea assured him and left.
Even after she left, Elijah didn’t take his eyes off, scanning for any suspicious movement and when he felt it was comfortable enough, he relaxed a bit.
It was in the process of turning back, that he mistakenly hit the purse that he got Rhea where she put her boarding stuff and other stuff that could fit in.
It seems that Rhea did not properly zip it close before she left because the contents spilled to the ground when it fell.
With a groan, Elijah bent and started retrieving the contents only for his gaze to fall on a wallet. His brows furrowed at once because he had seen that wallet a few times and each time she had it very close to her. But then, it was strange for Rhea to have a wallet inside a purse, right? Or maybe he was overly curious?
Elijah, without wasting time opened the wallet and was surprised at the amount of bills in there. Since they went through first-class, the security would not have questioned the wallet having surmised she was rich.
In her passport, Rhea went with the identity of a wealthy wife. His wife. However, Elijah knew better, Rhea didn’t have that much money.
Even if she does have such money, why would she carelessly store it in a wallet that could be easily stolen? Moreover, Rhea wouldn’t have the time to get such money since the last person she was in contact was Big Joe’s people at the club. They wouldn’t give that to her else she puts it to good use. Unless she stole it….
At once, Elijah began to search the wallet thoroughly as a sudden fear took over him. His instinct was never wrong – It was the same feeling that had kept him alive till now.
And finally, that was when he saw it, a picture slid out of one of the layers of the wallet while he was still searching. It was the picture of a woman and his blood chilled at once.
While on a mission, Elijah made it compulsory to know everything about his targets, and though, that wasn’t a picture of his target, it was the mother. Having stolen from Lukas himself, Elijah knew there was one thing he cherished above every other thing. His mother’s memories.
