"I was threatened."
Anzu sucked in a sharp breath when she caught his frigid stare. Her heart was pounding frantically in her chest at the thought of what he might do. His face was contorted in anger and she visibly gulped when he growled lowly in his throat. Throughout her years of knowing him she was never afraid, but at that moment, she witnessed a rage bubbling deep beneath his seething exterior and it had her terrified.
"Who was it?" He asked in a deadly whisper and a chill ran down her spine.
Anzu stared at her trembling hands. "I don't know. It was an anonymous phone call." She jumped when he slammed his clenched fist on her wooden caramel-colored coffee table. The force of his blow had it quivering pitifully.
"Why didn't you tell me?!" She flinched at the icy viciousness in his voice.
"You were away on business."
"That's no excuse! You should have contacted me regardless." His tone hadn't changed and she suppressed the urge to scream in frustration.
"We both know how important that merger was to you." Seto frowned, she should have known that she was more important to him than some worthless merger. He couldn't decided who he was angry at; Anzu or himself for being oblivious to their current predicament. He berated himself for not figuring it out sooner and his only thought was how terrifying it was for her to endure alone.
"That's not the point." Anzu groaned and threw her hands in the air. He was being so damn difficult! She could feel her eyes burn and she wanted to just curl up in a ball and cry her eyes out.
"What do you want Seto?!" It was an anguished cry straight from her bleeding heart and he clenched his jaw staring at her possessively.
"You. Only you." Her tear filled eyes and shaky smile didn't go unnoticed and he took her hand in his, but Anzu pulled away abrubtly and stood. No matter how much she wanted to feel his arms around her, lips capturing hers in a passionate kiss and the sound of his beating heart lulling her to sleep, she couldn't risk putting anyone in danger.
"Don't you understand that if we reconciled the people who threatened me will follow through with their plan?" The trepidation in her voice had him quiet for a minute and she thought she had finally won this battle. Hindsight should have warned her that wasn't the case.
"You forget that you're my girlfriend."
"Ex-girlfriend." She corrected stiffly and saw the muscles in his jaw contract.
"Given the current circumstances and your foolish decision, we never really broke up." He walked over to her and framed her face with his hands. "Which means my sweet, you're still my girlfriend."
Seto leaned down and brushed his lips over hers, begging her, tempting her to respond. He flickered his tongue over her sealed lips and something inside of Anzu snapped. After three agonizing weeks of being alone, her mind and body were craving the comfort and love he readily gave her. She groaned and gripped his biceps, pushing her lips forcefully against his, pleading for the warmth she knew trapped inside of him.
Seto smiled into their heated kiss and held her firmly against his muscled chest. He knew this was the only way to show her how much she meant to him. He trailed wet kisses down her neck laving it with his tongue while his hand disappeared under her blouse, touching the creamy skin the fabric concealed.
Anzu arched her back and thrust her hands in his incredibly soft hair wordlessly urging him for more. Seto groaned huskily and released her moist swollen lips and stared into her eyes with barely contained passion.
"Where is the bedroom?" Anzu blinked owlishly and the sensual fog lifted from her eyes.
"What?" She inquired breathlessly. Her head was still spinning from his kisses and she had to grab onto his arm to keep from falling to the ground.
"I want to make love to you." Seto ground out roughly and she stepped away from his overwhelmingly hot body. Her fears were creeping up in the back of her mind and she shook her head firmly.
"No we can't." She felt like a fool for saying no after she'd dreamt about being with him every night whilst lying in her cold empty bed.
"Explain 'no' to me?" He inched forward to hold her and she let him. Her traitorous body had a mind of its own and she inwardly frowned at her wanton behavior.
"It's just...I can't..."
"Do you want me to make love to you?"
"Yes." It was such a simple honest answer and she was rewarded with a deep kiss.
"Then why don't we?" Seto pulled her flush against his body and resumed the torment on her lips and neck. Anzu moaned loudly and all doubts and worries fled from her mind. She felt weightless as he pushed her against the nearest wall, her left leg instinctively coming to wrap around his hip and he brought the other there as well. He groaned into her neck when she tightened her legs and looked at her darkly.
"Bedroom." He grunted and Anzu smiled pointing to the door on the other side of the room. Seto nodded and practically ran across the floor, wrenching the door open and kicking it shut. He didn't bother to observe his surroundings, there would be time for that later. Right now the only thing occupying his mind was getting her out of those restricting clothes and giving her what they've both been craving for the last few weeks..
Seto threw her onto the bed and crawled on top and Anzu deftly put her hands on his chest in an attempt to stop him from kissing her senseless. "Can you forgive me for lying to you?" He smirked and blinded her face with moist kisses.
"Of course." She smiled and pulled him down for a series of passionate kisses of her own.
"Thank you."
Hours later, they were both lying on her bed completely satiated. She had fallen asleep briefly in his arms and was happy to see him lying next to her when she awoke. The pain and hurt of being alone for the past three weeks seemed almost worth it. Almost. Anzu sighed contentedly as Seto played with her long brown hair. She was suddenly thankful she'd let it grow. Her head was perched comfortably on his chest and her hand brushed his taut muscles teasingly.
"Go any lower and I won't be held responsible for my actions." Seto whispered huskily as her hand slid past his navel. Anzu smiled, moving her body to hover over his, planting a soft kiss on his lips. It was a sweet tender moment before things turned sour.
"What about the threat Seto?" He frowned and brushed her bare arm.
"Don't worry about that. I've already dealt with it." She gasped in surprise and his expression darkened into absolute fury. "It appears one of my business rivals made a foolish decision in threatening you. While you were sleeping I contacted my associate and he dealt with the minor problem. It wasn't difficult figuring out which idiot decided to do something rather stupid. I don't expect him or anyone else threatening you in the near future."
She nodded briefly and resumed her previous position. "How did you find me?" It had been a question plaguing her mind ever since he'd stepped foot in her apartment.
"Private investigator." Seto replied nonchalantly.
"What!" Anzu sat up and glared at him disapprovingly and he shrugged looking her straight in the eye. She could see the anger, irritation and lingering hurt in those ice blue orbs and she knew she was the cause for his inner turmoil.
"You left me no address nor phone number to get into contact with you, leaving me no other option."
Anzu kept staring at him. Her anger was waning and she decided to drop it. It wasn't entirely his fault and they both knew it. "I guess I could let it go." She said sighing heavily and Seto chuckled.
"So I'm in the clear?" Anzu smiled and kissed his neck, then his ear and finally his cheek before ghosting her lips over his.
"You could say that." She watched as the corner of his lips quirked and she kissed it. Seto sighed and flipped her under him, his body pressing against her in all the right places and she could feel his desire for her.
"Are you going to come live with me again?" He murmured while placing small bites on the tops of her breasts before going lower, making her squirm in his arms.
"What do you think?" She whispered between breaths as his hand found its way to her inner thigh, hers sliding past his stomach reaching out to touch his virility.
"I thinks that's a definite yes."
