My Unique Goddess: AZALEA

Azalea came back to the living room after washing herself. She noticed the three were seriously silent and they were looking at something. She slowly walks behind them and her eyes grew big in shocked.

"No, no, no, no". She was screaming and jumped behind Jack. She was trying to snatched her sketch pad.

Jack with his fast reflexes raised his arm avoiding Azalea's grasp. He was smiling widely.

Azalea climb the couch to reach Jack's hand but he stands up and raised it even higher. With his height she found it difficult to reach her sketch book. But she's persistent she is jumping on the couch.

Jack is laughing so hard it echoed in the whole room. She looks like a cute rabbit jumping just to reach her sketch pad. He really loves to tease her.

"Give it back, give it back please!". She is pleading now.

"Nope". He said while grinning.

Azalea is getting mad. She is pouting. She puts her arms in Jack's shoulders and hugs his neck then jump at him and rest her legs on his waist. Jack foresees what she's going to do. He catch her after she jumps at him and he gently hold her waist.

"Now you look like a monkey holding to a tree". And he burst out laughing more.

He was holding her like a child in one hand and his another hand is hanging in the air.

Azalea is a little irritated. She have no any other idea how to get her sketches. Without a thought she just bit Jack in the shoulder.

"Hey no biting!". He said to her but he still feels her teeth sank into his shoulder. "If you don't stop I'll kiss you". He said it between his laughter.

Azalea stopped but her face is wrinkled with annoyance. She sigh and hugged his husband tightly. Her arms are both touching his nape. Her chin is resting in his shoulder and her cheek is touching his.

"Please give it back". She whispered gently to his ears.

Jack felt her warm breath in his ear and a sudden burst of heat covers his body. His hand's that holding the sketch pad up came down and went to Azalea's back. Their position right now is giving him an immediate increase of desire.

Trey cleard his throat in a very loud way and the two shift their gaze to him.

Azalea forgot about the two other guests she have in her living room. She's so embarrassed with their situation.

"Put me down". She ordered him.

"No!". He refused and hold her tighter.

"Jack, I'm serious!". She is wiggling her body trying to free herself.

"If you keep moving, we will going to end up in your room". He said softly to her ear.

"I'm not moving!". She quickly said to him.

She was stiffened. She knows what Jack meant about ending in her room. They did that in Luis Mullen's party.

With that thought in her mind she felt a heat automatically surge in her body. Her cheeks start to burn red again and her throat starts to dry.

Jack can feel her body is heating up. He is grinning at her.

"What are you thinking?.... Is it the night at Luis party". Jack is asking her while his lips is touching the corner of Azalea's lips.

Azalea breath heavily. She can almost taste Jack's lips. She can feel the warmth of his body and she wants to absorb it all. In her thought this man can easily drive her crazy. She feels like she's losing her control.

"Aren't we going to eat now?". Trey asked them while scrolling in his phone.

Azalea snap out of her daze.

"Let her go she needs to cook, we are all starving here". He said lazily.

Jack feels like killing his cousin any minute now. His plan on seducing his wife and kicking them out blew up.

"Corbin". He called for his assistant.

"On it". He replied. He already anticipated what he wants him to do.

A knock on the door came after a couple of minutes. Cori's voice is on the other side.

"Let me go now, Cori's here". She was worried while asking him.

Jack's eyebrows furrowed and a hint of anger is emitting in his face.

"Why are you so worried about him seeing us like this?". His tone is a bit hard.

Azalea got confused of his behavior. He suddenly got angry and she don't know why.

"Because I don't want him to tease me to death after. That's so annoying". She explained candidly.

Jack accepted her reason and let her go. He don't want any other man to tease her except him. That right is for him alone.

"Thank you". She said when he puts her down.

Then she tried to snatched her sketches again but Jack is faster. He already hide it in his back.

"You really don't know how to back down, do you?". He was smiling again.

Azalea was amazed how fast this man can changed his moods. She was sure he was angry a minute ago then smiling again after.

Corbin opened the door. Cori and two of their bodyguards came in. Jack handed Azalea's sketch pad to him and he gently put it inside the briefcase of one of the guard. They closed the briefcase and handle it with care. They left after.

Cori was dumbfounded by the scene. He can't understand why they are treating his Boss' sketch pad like an expensive thing. He remembered that his Boss just throws it on the floor after she's done.

He is just scratching his head in disbelief.

"Yo, Boss!..... The boys are asking if you're going to cook?". Cori ask her.

"Yes I will, tell them I'll make a chicken stew". She answered him. She needs to cook fast and that's the first recipe pop up in her mind.

Cori looked at Jack and made a two finger salute. He just nod at him then he left.

"You're cooking for your employees?". Jack ask her in a confound tone.

"Yup, but not always". She replied smiling.

"Do you need help?". He asked her even though he doesn't have any knowledge in cooking.

"Aahhh, that's so sweet. But I can handle this. I will only make a chicken stew and grilled some meets and veggies. Just give me an hour". She was smiling ear to ear and wink at him.

Jack smiled when she wink at him. He watched his wife with adoration while doing a housewife's chores. He is loving the moment of being married.

He was thinking of what to do for an hour. He looks at the oil paintings in her walls and decided to study them one by one.

"You paint?". Jack asked her. Because on the lower right part of the portrait there's a signature. (Love Azalea) just like what it's written in her sketch pad.

"A little". She said humbly.

Jack chuckles. She have a lot of talent he thought.

He starts with a beautiful woman's portrait. She have an amethyst pair of eyes and a heart shaped face. Her hair looks very soft with natural curls.

She looks like Azalea.

"Is this your mother?". He curiously asked her.

"Yup, her name is Celestine Sherriman". She answered him without giving a glance at the portrait.

Jack just nod while looking at the portrait. He feels like his wife just introduced him to her mother. He thought she is as beautiful as her.

Another oil painting that hangs in her wall is a portrait of an old man.

"That's my gramps". Azalea told him even though he's not asking yet.

Jack chuckles . She knows he's going to ask her again. But she beat him to it.

Jack's face becomes serious when he looked at the third painting. It was a portrait of a boy.

"Azalea, do you know this boy?". He asked with full of curiosity.

Azalea stopped for a moment and took a glance at the portrait.

"Not really,.... I mean, I remember his face but I don't know his name". She said honestly.

"But you painted him". Jack knows it's Azalea's oil painting because of the signature on the lower right of the portrait.

"Yes I did, because he's always in my dreams lately". She confessed.

"You dream of him?".

"Yup".

"But why?".

"I'm not sure, I guessed because he's the first person who proposed to me when I was five". She suddenly remembered him. Telling her that he will marry her when she grows up.

"Someone already proposed to you and did you accept it?". Trey can't help himself he's overhearing their conversation and was stupefied.

"Yes I did!. Back then kids bullied me for being different and they told me no one will going to marry me but he came and said he will marry me. I was very happy that time to tell my grandfather so I left without asking his name, when I come back he's gone". She explained to him in details.

Trey was just nodding repeatedly while brushing his finger on his chin. This painting has a story he thought.

Corbin walks beside Jack. He noticed he's silence and he is anticipating for his order.

"Do you want me to find him?". He asked already so he can start the job.

Jack sigh.

"No need, he is already standing beside you".
