jealous Lena

Julian's POV

She doesn't trust me enough to confront me. It's obvious she's angry with me. Her kiss seems like a plea or a test and I'm not taking it from her so I pull away from the kiss while she blinks her lashes at my untimely move. I think I saw hurt reflect on her face and damn it breaks my heart to know I'm the cause of it.

" Babe, Are you okay? Please talk to me" I ask, cupping her cheeks even though I'm upset. I know she was dealing with Maximilian's death but this wasn't about him. She definitely has something against me. Did she get the photos too?

Even if she did, we should talk about it besides I'm curious to know what he sent her.

" you stopped kissing me. Wow" she accuses tending to get off my lap but I stopped her. She's not moving her ass until I know what is going on with her.

It foolish of me to think I love the jealous Lena. This is just stupid. I might have been cruel to her but I never cheated on her. That's not me. One woman at a time.

" So? You were expecting it " I fire back and by the shocked look on her face, I was right. She expected me to reject her advances. To prove what, that I'm cheating. I might be many things definitely not a lascivious man.

" Why start what you can't finish? You fucking kissed me with the same lips you used in kissing her. How dare you?" She asks then smiles. I fail to see the humor in this but I'll go along with it until she asks the right questions.

" You're mine. Who is her? Who kissed her?" She blinks severally then quickly drops her hands from my shoulder like she just realized she was still holding me. I lock my gaze on her to make sure she doesn't try dodging the question.

" I .... Julian, forget I said that. I don't know what's wrong with me" oh yeah. She's joking if she thinks I'm letting her go without an explanation. She literally just called me a fuckboy and she's not going to confront me. I was given the same pictures and I knew she could never do that, I had hoped she had the same faith in me but here she is crucifying me.

"Explain it to me. I'm tired of going in a circle with you. I shouldn't have come. If you want to be alone then be alone. I have deals to close" I snapped causing her to jerk cos I have had enough of her. I removed my hands from her waist letting her know she was free to leave but she didn't move.

" Jules... I'm... I don't.. what did I do now? Can we just forget about this? You came here to see me not to fight with me right? There's nothing mature about fighting a sick person " she says and I raise a brow at her. Sick? Anyway, she can do as she pleases. I need to take care of Trevor maybe she'll find the courage to confront me. Here I was running home to her not knowing she doesn't want me. Somehow I feel like I'm a fool in love for giving her another chance but again I can't resist her. She's unique in every way.

" I suppose that's true" she smiles as soon as I said that almost jumping on my lap making me hard which I think she noticed as she stopped moving to look at it and damn I like the desire in her eyes when she did so. Let me rephrase my words, she wanted me but is trying to resist me.

That makes the two of us.

" Is that... Are you... it's .." she's mumbling like a child because she knows she wants it. Let's see how long she can restrain herself though cos I think I have more restraint than Lena when it comes to the bedroom of course.

" Hard, yes. It's a part of my body you know. It has its own way of reacting to feelings and yes, it's yours " she licks her lips and then meets my eyes scooting away from my crotch.

"Why don't I feel that way?" Her innocent question stunned me thus reminding me of the reason I wasn't groping her. I declare myself hers and she still thinks I'm unfaithful so forgive me if I took things too far as I reached for her phone before she could stop me.

" Julian, I need my phone. You're invading my privacy. Give it back. Julian" she says struggling to get the phone from my grasp still straddling me but my long hands are making it impossible for her to reach. I pass her security system hacking her codes alas I had full access to her phone.

One of the reasons I made it so early In life is that I'm a hacker. I didn't study it, it's a gift. An unusual gift. Getting past her security system was easy and Lena has the worst passwords.

"I can sue you for this. Julian????" she keeps screaming at me hereby getting off my lap to get it but I stood up as well farther away from the bed she was about to stand on.

I scroll through her phone not bothering to check her messages or emails then I saw it.

Photos.

Photos of me and Iona in Ireland. I furrow my brows stupefied when I saw the next picture of us kissing. I look at the photo thoroughly then at Lena who is staring at me with disdain in a defensive pose. The photo shoot was spectacular but a blind man would know it wasn't real. Not Lena though cos she sees the worse in people. So I drop her phone on the desk close to her bed and walked out of the room.

" Julian???" I can hear her voice calling for me behind the door but I keep moving. She didn't even see me in bed with Iona yet she resents me. If only she knew I had received the same thing yet I respected her innocence maybe that's where the problem is, she thinks I still love Iona. She thinks she was my first love.

The truth is Iona wasn't my first love. She wasn't one to forget because of her betrayal.

Why is Lena making her reappearance in my life a big deal unless she's scared of losing me?

There's something about those photos. How did Trevor know I was in Ireland? Mom wouldn't connive with an amateur like Trevor beside Iona's appearance, I think she's unto something.
