Music Recommendation – Driver’s license – Lewis Capaldi

“God, this is what I need,” Elijah moaned as soon as his back hit the mattress and had his eyes closed.

They were back at his place and though Adele hadn’t moved in officially, they had been cohabitating for a while now. Some of her things were loitered around his place and she doesn’t need to stop at her place first to change before leaving for work in case she spends the night over.

Feeling a dip on the bed, a small smile curled his lips and Elijah reached for Adele knowing instinctively that she was beside him. His hand touched the small of her back before he opened his eyes and wrapped his arm securely around her waist.

Sitting up on the bed, Elijah pulled Adele closer to his side before leaning in to bury his face into her hair, sniffing her sensual and lush fragrance, it was addictive. His fingers raked into her hair, feeling the softness of her silky black hair and he kissed down her neck while Adele tilted her neck to give him better access.

Elijah nuzzled her neck, running his nose up and down her slender throat tenderly. He kissed down her collarbone while his hand moved to her breast and the other slipped beneath her blouse.

However, the moment he touched her bare stomach, Adele jerked away from him as if he hurt her when he didn’t. She stood right up to her feet while he frowned, trying to comprehend what just happened.

“Did I do something wrong?” Elijah lifted a brow, surprised at her reaction. His instinct was telling him that Adele was not telling him something. Recently, he couldn’t really explain, but it seems like Adele was detaching from him. She was here with him, but not with him at the same time.

.....

“No, it’s not you, it’s me...” Adele sighed heavily, running her hands through her hair and dishevelling it in the process, “Aziz, I’m so stressed lately I’m a mess.” She lied.

The moment he touched her stomach, Adele felt like he would discover her secret and she just reacted. Moreover, she couldn’t have sex with him yet. After the news of her pregnancy? She was not ready for one.

“Stressed?” He lifted a brow, “Did Marcel assign to you a new assignment that I have no idea of?” He questioned her.

“Kind of,”

He threw his hand up, “And you didn’t care to tell me?”

“Excuse me?” Adele huffed, “I didn’t realize that I was entitled to tell you of my every work. I told you, Aziz, just because the both of us are together doesn’t mean I mix business with pleasure.” She reminded him sternly.

“Fine, I’m sorry,” Elijah pushed off the bed and went over to her. Her face was tight with a frown, but he took her hand in his and explained to her, “I didn’t mean that way. It’s just that we have worked on some cases together and it turned out well, so I just assumed -”

“That I should lean on your shoulder just because you’re the man of the house?” She gave him attitude, her head tilted to the side, waiting for him to counter that.

“I just wanted to help you. Just like you complained right now, you’re stressed up and I’m here to take the load off your shoulder. But since you don’t want my help, you’re good to go. Go and break a leg, and I’ll be here, the man of the house, offering massages to your tired muscles,” He sassed back and she was unable to answer back.

Adele felt guilty inside knowing that she was merely transferring her anger to him. Not that Aziz was completely innocent,but he still contributed to her problem, and she would have to bear the consequences alone.

“What happened when we left? What did you and Arianna discuss while we were away that she even fainted in the end?” She decided to change the topic instead.

Aziz straightened up, his hands hanging by his side uselessly as he explained, “I’m not responsible for Arianna fainting, that one is on her. However, if you want to know what Arianna and I were discussing so badly? Then you should know that It was about you. Your beloved cousin’s woman doesn’t think that I deserve you. She says I’m bad for you.” Elijah twisted the story around because there was no way on earth he was telling her the truth. Even while they were together as a couple, Adele was still fiercely loyal to Marcel. It was not like this relationship meant much to her.

“And perhaps, she’s right,” Adele said all of a sudden, and his gaze narrowed at her.

“What do you mean by that?”

Adele looked him straight in the eyes,

“I think it’s high time we ended things, Aziz.”

It was strange.

Aziz could swear that this was the opportunity he had been waiting for and suddenly she was serving it up on a platter of gold for him to accept. He should be over the moon knowing this was what he wanted, a clean break just before he finished his mission and she finds out that he was Elijah all along. Yet he was reluctant to accept it. He didn’t want it.

It was too soon.

Not that they had much time in the first place. However, Elijah wanted to savor his last time with her. And yes, it was cruel knowing that she would be the one most affected when everything comes crashing down. Yes, he was a selfish bastard.

“Why?” Elijah asked, his throat suddenly dry, “Why should we break up now? Is it because of the incident today? Are you afraid that Marcel would come back for me and you’d be caught in the crossfire? Because if that’s the case, then you have nothing to worry about, I would accept whatever punishment Marcel gives me without protest. I would pacify his anger and we would be good to go. ” He was practically begging her.
