Convincing her (Jen and Lucas)

Chapter 31: Rendez-vous

While the two women had found a place to sit and talk. The father-son pair were walking around socialising. Lucas did not drink any of the wine and had asked one of the waiters to serve him grape juice instead.

He was sure he would get drunk fast because he had not eaten at all that day and in addition to his fatigue and the fact that he will have to take Jen back home at the end of the night dissuaded him from drinking at all. His father understood him because he also does this sometimes, especially when he plans on going back to work after an event.

After several introductions and meeting unfamiliar faces Lucas was finally given some reprieve by his father. He headed straight for where Jen was standing with Hellen. He found them surrounded by a group of women. Unsurprisingly Jen stood out since she was pretty tall. When he reached them he said a few pleasantries and his mother attempted to pull him in before he politely rejected her.

"I'm sorry mom, but can I borrow Jen from you?" Lucas said but was not really asking because he was already ushering Jen away from the group. His mother could only nod as she smiled in amusement.

Jen did not even understand how she was already walking away with Lucas from how smoothly he had escaped.

He led her towards a door at the back of the hall that she had not noticed since it was closed. When the doorman saw Lucas he opened the door. There was a garden beyond that door. It was filled with lush green trees and perfectly trimmed grass.

There were pavements that subtly intersected in the garden so that people would not step on the grass. When the two of them stepped outside they both seemed to have removed the masks that they were wearing.

Jen tugged on Lucas' arm leading him to a bench that was close by. Lucas followed her without resistance, and when she ungracefully sat down Lucas was tempted to laugh. He sat down next to her and watched her as she removed her shoes.

"Oh, thank god you came, my feet were killing me," Jen said as she started massaging her feet. Lucas smiled and bent down and pulled her legs across his lap and started massaging them. His fingers pressed down on the soles of her feet with just the right amount of pressure. The sensation felt so good that Jen unconsciously moaned. She froze after she heard herself and immediately blushed from embarrassment.

Lucas, however, was very amused and his thoughts admittedly had already gone to the gutter. He smiled and pressed the same area again and watched Jen close her eyes as she relaxed.

"Am I uncovering a new fetish?" Lucas teased. If he wasn't doing such a good job she would have kicked him. She knew if she said anything he would tease her so she kept quiet.

"How was it? Hanging out with my mother?" Lucas asked curiously.

"Your mother is amazing," Jen said for lack of a better word. She had hit it off with Hellen and that came as a surprise to her

"It's good you two got along, I'm sorry I couldn't accompany you today," Lucas said as his hands moved higher and started massaging her calves. Jen's eyebrows furrowed when she felt his hands higher up her legs but decided to stay quiet since it was so relaxing. If anyone saw them they would wonder if these two were in the wrong place. Shouldn't they be doing this at home?

"It's okay, it's for work isn't it?"Jen comforted, "Besides, your mom makes great company," Jen said as she smiled brightly at him.

Lucas' gaze changed all of a sudden and Jen noticed this. She sat a bit straighter and when she was about to ask him what was wrong he pulled her to sit across his lap. He had done it so smoothly she was not sure of what exactly happened. She was instantly surrounded by the scent of sandalwood and mint. They were so close to each other that their noses almost touched.

"Lucas, what's wrong?" Jen asked nervously, there was a little tremor in her voice. She was not expecting Lucas to do that and their proximity made her heartbeat speed up. He leaned over and kissed just below her which made Jen tremble.

"Lucas," said breathlessly. It was the only thing Jen was able to say her hands were holding on to the lapels of his jacket and her breathing picked up.

He was completely charmed by her when she said his name like that. Lucas lifted her chin and pressed his lips against her. They were both very enthusiastic about the kiss since it had been some time since they had last had a proper kiss. Jen tugged on his bottom lip and sucked it into her mouth. Lucas' mind became a bit hazy after this action of hers.

She was teasing him with her bold kisses and she felt the arms around her tightened. The hand that was behind her was tracing circles along her bare back and she couldn't help the tremors that ran through her body. Their kiss had deepened and Lucas was already exploring her mouth with his tongue, he could taste the wine that she had been drinking during the evening and if possible he felt intoxicated by it.

Jen could feel his hand trace the exposed space between her breasts with his thumb as the rest of his fingers fondled her. He lightly pinched her nipple and if Jen was standing at that moment she would have become weak-kneed.

The different sensations on her body were driving her crazy and they had both forgotten that they were at a party. Jen couldn't even muster the strength to continue kissing him and slightly pulled back, her luscious lips still open, her breathing had become heavy and as Lucas' hazel eyes met hers she really wished they were at home
