Untamed

Chapter 5

Emily's POV

"Calm down, Feisty." He said, smirking as he placed his hands into his pockets.

"Don't call me feisty!" I snapped, annoyed.

I hated when he called me feisty. I warned him about stopping calling me like this, but of course, he didn't listen to me.

"What should I call you? Cutie pie?" He asked, giving me a mischievous smirk.

Ugh! I hate you, Cody Sullivan!

"Cody!" I exclaimed in frustration.

"Alright, calm down." He sighed, raising his hands in surrender. "I could not come early because.... Umm... I forgot to set my alarm on." He mumbled.

I rolled my eyes. "Don't lie to me." I warned and tapped his name on my phone. I found his photo kissing a model at the nightclub from last night and showed it to him.

"Umm..." He bit his lower lip, rubbing his neck. "I am sorry." He gave me a boyish smile. I frowned and walked towards the door without waiting for him.

The interior designer was showing us his design. It looked so beautiful and luxurious, but there were some details that needed to change.

"Cody, what do you think about the stairs? Maybe we should change its place as Mr. Scott suggested." I asked as I turned my gaze to him.

I frowned, annoyed as I caught him staring at the girl's legs who was sitting next to our table.

"Cody!" I exclaimed between gritted teeth, trying to control my anger.

"Umm...Yes?" He asked, finally, focusing his attention on me.

I sighed and repeated my question.

As soon as Mr. Scott left, I turned towards Cody who was still gawking at the same girl. His signature smirk plastered on his face. I wanted to smash his smirk right off his face.

"Pervert!" I exclaimed without managing to control my anger.

"What?" He asked, confused as he looked at me.

"You look at her like you are ready to eat her with your eyes." I commented. "You are such a pervert." I added, shaking my head in disapproval.

"No, baby. I am just a man." He said, giving me a boyish grin and winked at me. I shook my head without saying anything.

How can someone be cute, sexy and annoying at the same time?

What the hell are you talking about, Emily?! Don't call him cute nor sexy!

Cody's POV

I walked into the nightclub. Tristan and I were hanging out tonight.

I waved at him and approached him. After giving him a man hug, I ordered a glass of whiskey.

"How is it going on with Emily? Did she slap you again?" He asked, amused.

"No. I will not let her slap me again. That night I was drunk. So I couldn't react in time and catch her hand, but I will not let her again." I stated firmly.

"Ok. Calm down, Cody." Tristan said, grinning. "As I guessed, both of you still want to strangle each other." He commented.

"She acts like a jealous wife." I confessed and took a sip from my whiskey.

"Hmm." Tristan smirked in amusement.

"Don't dare to say what you think." I warned him. "I hate her. She always scolds me like I am a child. Even my mother hasn't scolded me this much like she does." I pouted, annoyed.

"Great loves start with a fight." He commented, smirking.

"Hell no! Never! I hate her." I protested hotly.

Emily and I. Never!

"If you say so." I gave me a wide grin and sipped his whiskey. Then he checked his wristwatch and said. "It is good to listen to your complaints about your Emily..."

"Tristan!" I warned him.

He grinned and continued. "But I need to go home."

I looked at my wristwatch and commented. "But it is early."

"Not for a married man. Mila and I have plans for tonight." He winked at me playfully.

"Oh." I smirked mischievously.

"I wish you to find a woman and start your family. I hope someday you say this sentence too. Being married to the woman who you love is bliss." He confessed, full of affection and love in his voice.

I grimaced, shaking my head. "Bro, if you cursed me in another way, I would be more appreciated." I admitted in horror.

Tristan chuckled and shook his head. "You are hopeless."

***

I grabbed my suitcase and left my penthouse. Today I was going to Italy for a meeting. Actually, Tristan should attend the meeting, but he asked me to go instead of him because Tristan and Mila were going to celebrate their wedding anniversary tomorrow. My assistant, Hailey, was accompanying me.

As soon as the jet landed in Italy, we went to the hotel. I felt tired. After settling down in my suite, I decided to take a shower. I pulled my shirt over my head and threw it onto the couch and went to the bathroom.

After taking a shower, I wrapped a towel around my waist and walked out of the shower. Then I went to the bedroom while drying my hair with another towel. I grabbed my phone and sent a message to Tristan informing him about my arrival. Suddenly, someone knocked on the door. I placed my phone on the bedside table and went to open the door.

When I opened the door, I saw Hailey with a seductive smile on her face. She still wore her camel coat.

"Isn't it hot in your coat?" I asked, smirking.

"Yes, it is so hot. If you invite me inside, I will take it off." She replied seductively and roamed my bare chest with lustful eyes, biting her lower lip.

I smirked arrogantly and took a step back, letting her in. As soon as I closed the door, she took her coat off without taking her eyes off me. The coat slid down her body, falling into the floor, and revealed her bare body. My jaw dropped in surprise.

Fuck!

"You are right it is so hot." She commented in a provocative tone and grinned.

"Yes, it is hot." I agreed, my voice husky while roaming her sexy body. "But I want to make it hotter." I added as I approached her without taking my eyes off her body.

She grinned as I wrapped my arms around her waist and pulled her into my chest. In a flash, I smashed my lips against hers. She pulled back, smirking mischievously.

"No, we will play with my rules." She said in a seductive voice as she grabbed my hand and led me towards the bedroom. I smirked arrogantly and followed her.
