Convincing her (Jen and Lucas)

Chapter 32: Giving it a try



Chapter 32: Giving it a try

Lucas could feel her warm breath blow against his lips. His hand had don't stopped teasing her breast and as much as he wished that there were no clothes between them, Lucas could not bring himself to go so far with her.

He knew that no one would come to the garden because it was restricted for this event since it was going through some renovations that is why he was not hesitant to do this with her here.

Lucas pecked her chin and went further to kiss along her jawline. Jen had thrown back her head to give him access to her neck. Lucas looked at her smooth and clear neck and was tempted to leave a few marks on it. Jen felt the tip of his tongue against her skin followed by the sensation of his teeth grazing her neck and she couldn't stop the tremor that passed through her body.

If anyone looked at her skin closely enough they would notice the goosebumps that had surfaced. Lucas, however, stopped himself from agitating her skin too much, he did not want to embarrass her by leaving a hickey on her neck.

She was very responsive to Lucas' touch and he felt like he was being bewitched by her.

"Jen" Lucas whispered her name close to her ear making her shiver once more.

"Mmmh" was all Jen could muster.

"When will you give me my answer?" Lucas asked as his tongue licked at the back of her ear.

"Lucas" Jen said breathlessly, she was really trying to answer him but he was torturing her.

"Hmmm?" he responded.

"Let's give a try" she finally said in a whisper. Lucas pulled back suddenly, not sure if he heard her correctly.

"Really?" He asked, his voice hoarse from arousal. Jen's eyes were also glazed over with arousal. She nodded as she looked at Lucas with heavy-lidded eyes. Lucas was ecstatic when he heard this he could only kiss her again.

They stayed that way for a short while before finally stopping. Jen was still sitting on Lucas' lap being held between his strong arms her head against his chest.

She calmed down as she listened to his strong heartbeat. When she was calm she felt slightly embarrassed for acting so wantonly in such a public area. It seems whenever Lucas was involved she would act out of the norm. She looked up at him and saw his warm gaze staring back at her. It made her feel at a loss so she avoided it.

"We should get back, we've been missing for quite some time now," Lucas said as he put some of her stray hairs back in place.

Jen could only nod before she got off his lap. Lucas got up and helped her put her shoes back on. She took out her phone and lipstick from her clutch, thanking God that she brought it along and reapplied it while using her phone as a mirror.

She cleaned up the smudged areas with her handkerchief and she was good to go. People would never know what happened unless they noticed that her lips looked slightly more swollen. After standing up and fixing up her dress, she looked at Lucas and noticed that he had some smudged lipstick on his face.

With a giggle, she helped him clean up and they both headed towards the door that would bring them back to the party. They paused for a while taking finally stock of each other. Jen fixed his tie and the lapels of his jacket before she looked at him with approval.

He smiled at her and knocked twice on the door before the doorman inside opened the door for them. Jen's arm was hooked into Lucas' when they entered, some people noticed their return and since they looked the same as how they did before they left they did not think too much of their disappearance.

Lucas' parents, however, noticed that their son had a faint smile on his face that was hard to catch unless you knew him well enough. Jen's eyes also had a mysterious glint in them. Hellen bit her lips to stop herself from saying anything but from the looks of it, it looked like the matters between the two of them had at least progressed a bit and she was so happy about it that she carried a smile on her face throughout the night.

Lucas manoeuvred himself in the crowd with Jen as he went around talking to some acquaintances and making introductions. He was glad to see how Jen was able to hold her own during the conversations and didn't just stay quietly by his side like a pretty vase.

It would be a lie if he said that he did not feel tensed at all during the party because he noticed that there were some men who looked at Jen very suggestively and as per usual, Jen did not even notice.

Even if she noticed she would not care because she was the type of person who gave her all in relationships, that is why she is very cautious because if they end, she feels greater loss, so now that she is with Lucas, there won't be anyone besides him in her eyes. As they were walking together Jen noticed that Lucas' mood was off.

"What's wrong?" Jen asked feeling puzzled. Everything was fine a minute ago.

"It's nothing," Lucas said but continued to glare at some of the people who looked at Jen with lewd eyes. Jen looked at the direction he was staring at and finally realised what was going on. It would be a lie if Jen said she was not happy that he was being protective of her.

"Hey, don't bother with them you'll just tire yourself out," Jen said as she rested her palm on his chest to calm him down. Lucas looked at Jen with a smile and held the hand that was on his chest with his.

They heard the ringing sound of a glass being hit by a spoon to call for people's attention. Noah said a few words of thanks to the guests and introduced Lucas who went on to give a short speech. Lucas was supposed to do the opening dance so he walked towards Jen and held her hand with a slight gentlemanly bow.

"Would you care for a dance?" Lucas asked a smile playing on his lips. Jen was very amused by his action and couldn't help but smile radiantly. The couple had already drawn a lot of attention that night.

One of the paparazzi that was at the event took a picture of this scene, with Lucas slightly bowing and looking at Jen with a smile and Jen looking at Lucas with eyes sparkling with mirth and a radiant smile on her lips.
