It was down to her waist but I was not sure because she was lying flat on the floor and I was on top of her. Her soft slender hand gripped my forearm, my muscles rippled at her contact.
She was more beautiful than the description of Aphrodite and Psyche. She parted her soft luscious lips when my sculpted chest shifted against her soft feminine front. I smirked at her.
Fuck! I want to have her. I want to feel the taste of those plum little petals which were her lips.
She must have been sculpted by those heavenly beings themself to possess this beautiful art that was her face.
My smirk must awaken her from her trance because she let out an earth-splattering scream and I immediately muffled her voice with my rough yet smooth hand. I was startled by her sudden response.
She thrashed and squirmed under me which made me hard as a rock.
"Stop moving!" I ordered her but she didn't give a damn about me and kept on squirming under me.
I didn't take a glimpse of her nakedness. Even though I liked her, I was not going to invade her privacy without her consent.
I groaned and she might have felt my bulge on her stomach, which made her stop abruptly. She was breathing hard, her chest raised up and down pressing harder against my masculine chest. The only thing stopping me from fucking her was the fabric of my pants.
I had met many beautiful women in my life but there was something in those ocean blue orbs of her that calls to my soul.

Adeline's POV~
My heart raced when I felt his arousal against my stomach. My heart pounded wildly, adrenaline ran like a river across my system. I kneed him where the sun doesn't shine and he abruptly let me go and clutched his precious package and groaned in pain. I dashed to the bathroom door and wore my bathrobe and tied it securely around my tiny waist.
He recovered fast from his pain and made his way to me. He was completely soaked and the shower was still on, his blond hair was sticking to the front of his forehead.
Damn! He was a sexy burglar, indeed!
I rushed out of the bathroom. I would think about my water bill later and I could sense him trailing behind me. As soon as I reached the kitchen, I grabbed a knife from my kitchen counter and pointed it at him.
"Who the fuck are you?" I yelled at him. I was shaking so badly, and my heart, felt like it was going to fail any minute but my adrenaline was fierce.
He pointed his finger at me and jerked in my direction. I looked at him with my raised eyebrows still pointing the knife at him.
"You've got to be kidding me," he muttered under his breath.
"Okay, dude, if you're done with your, self rambling I asked you a question," I asked him with sass. He looked in my direction and those emerald green eyes of his shone with amusement.
"I'm Arsenio, the prince of Lympia and I'm a blessing from the God of love," he answered me with pride glistening in that gorgeous face of his. I snapped out of my ungodly thoughts about him.
What the hell was he talking about? What prince, there was no prince in America and I never heard a place like that. Was he a lunatic or was he pretending to be one?
"Don't you think your imagination is a bit too much?" I asked him with my raised eyebrows.
"I'm not imagining it is the truth." His tone sounded that he was offended by my question.
"Then what the hell are you doing in my place?" I demanded him and I don't have time for his childish tales.
"I was pushed into this realm and its entrance happens to be in your home," he shrugged casually like it was a normal thing to explain. I opened my mouth in utter disbelief.
Was he even for real? What the hell did he take me for, a kid?
"I'm not a kid to belief your silly lies," I groaned in frustration.
"Do not talk to me like that female, I'm a prince and I do not tolerate disrespect. Just think then how in the hell I appeared in front of you all of a sudden," he yelled at me.
"Your front door is still locked," he pointed out, and yeah, he was right, it was locked and my bathroom door was also locked when I rushed out of it when I tried to escape him. I frowned and thought about the events that took place earlier.
He appeared all of a sudden and landed on top of me from my front where there was a wall.
The more I think, the more puzzled I became of this entire situation but it was not possible, right?
The thought of his shirtless body against my naked one sent a chill down my spine. I gazed at his form in my front. He was slender and tall with a lean muscular body. His body looked like one of those warriors from some historical movies.
Water was dripping down from his hair and trailed down that hard chest and softly traced his defined abs and disappeared under the waistband of his pants. His pants hung low, making his V line visible. I could see the bulge in his front and I looked up at his face.
He gave me a lopsided grin and his eyes held mischief like he could know what I was thinking.
I shook my head to clear my dirty thoughts about him. I licked my lips suddenly feeling my mouth dry. My action drew his attention to my lips. He gulped down, making his lickable Adam's apple bob up and down.
He slowly made his way to me like a predator hunting its prey. His emerald green eyes were darkened with lust. He looked so hungry not for food but for me.
I snapped out of my trance, "Stop where you are!" I stuttered and pointed my knife at him.
He was a stranger and I don't have the habit of hooking up with anyone after my dreadful breakup.
"I want you to get out of my apartment or else I'll be calling the cops." I threatened him.
"I don't know about whom you're talking about but I have no place to go. I'm not familiar with this realm and my powers were not working here." He whispered with an adorable frown.
He was a homeless man! I ignored his latter part which made no sense at all.
I knew the things he told me were surreal but something deep inside me believes him and his words were genuine. He sounded like he belonged to a different world but I couldn't risk my safety, I barely knew the guy.
"That's not my problem dude! I want you out of my apartment now!" I snapped at him. His face fell but soon he puffed out his chest and glared at me.
"Fine! I'm leaving," he told me and held his head high like he was royalty.
I opened the front door and he made his way out without a word. To be honest, I kind of felt bad for him.
I changed into my pajamas and ate my dinner. My thoughts were drifted away to that sexy intruder, did he ate anything?
Was he starving? The weather was very cold out there.
Was he dying out in this cold?
I must have offered him some money but I was not thinking straight while dealing with him
I shook my conscience and shoved my spaghetti into my mouth.
Why should I care?
It was half-past eleven and I couldn't sleep. I kept on tossing and turning on my bed.
Something in me, made my feet carry me to my front door. I was just going to check near my apartment to make sure that he was gone, nothing more and nothing less. I reminded my subconscious firmly.
I walked out of my apartment and made my way downstairs. I exited out of my building and gazed at the street.
God, it was so cold! I must have bought my sweater with me. I shifted from one foot to another, seeking desperately for some warmth.
I saw no one near my building so I turned around to walk back to my apartment but suddenly a movement at my peripheral got my attention. I turned and froze on my spot. My sexy intruder was sitting near a dumpster and he was shaking terribly in cold.
Arsenio's POV~
"That's not my problem dude! I want you out of my apartment, now!" she snapped at me.
I was furious, how dare she talk to me like that? I glared at her and stormed out of her home. Her home was so small and it contains some weird-looking things. The furniture was brown.
And it looked polished. There was a big, flat, black box in her sitting room.I stormed out of her home without a word and noticed that there were similar homes in this building and I descended the stairs and looked around my surrounding.There were tall buildings and some buildings made up of glasses and a woman was talking on a big flat screen that hung on that building.Oh, God! What was this place?I narrowed around my weird surrounding in bewilderment.The temperature was cold unlike Lympia and I was dripping wet and shirtless was not helping me either. I think the needle the oracle used to poke me had something to do with my inability to use my powers here.I spread my mighty wings and took off a flight. My wings were a part of my body; it was like an organ, so no one could control my wings. I was starving but I could hold on to my hunger it was not a big deal.When there was a war between Lympia and Rinosa, I and my soldiers fo
Adeline's POV~He was moving from one foot to another and rubbing the back of his neck in awkwardness."Um… you're staring at me," he pointed out."Pardon?" I blinked once, twice and I came back to my reality. I was zoning out since I saw that news, maybe it was someone else with a similar physique as Arsenios'."You're staring. I asked you if you have anything to eat." He scrutinized his gaze at me like he was dealing with a toddler who couldn't understand his words."Sorry, I do have some leftover spaghetti from last night. I'll heat it for you." I told him and made my way to the kitchen. I took the spaghetti from the fridge and put it in the oven and set the timer."You look so dazed." He declared, "Is something bothering you?" he frowned."Nope!" I told him by popping the 'P'"Let's talk about you, who are you?" I asked him, cutting the chase for which he raised his eyebrows at me."I told you
Arsenio's pov~ Was that a paper? These people were so weird we use copper, silver, and gold to buy something but here they use paper. I carried all her bags as she was so jumpy. "Relax! You look so anxious" I tried to calm her. As we tried to make our way out of the building a voice stopped us. "Adeline! Is that you?" "Fuck!" she cursed under her breath. We both turned around to face the same guy as she pointed at the aisle as her ex-lover. "Yes, I am!" she turned around and stood straight in front of him. She tried to look confident but I could see that she was shivering. "What are you doing here?" he asked her while eyeing me like I was a threat. "Grocery shopping, duh!" she answered him with a sass, he clenched his jaw at her answer. "Who is this guy?" he grunted. "That's none of your business," she snapped and motioned me to walk with her, we tried to get away from him. The keyword was tried
"Now, stop being indolent and help me set the table," I ordered him playfully. "Yes, your majesty." He gave me a mock salute and followed me into the kitchen. We set the table on our terrace and had our lunch there. "Damn! It's good." He grunted with approval after taking a bite of the pizza. "I told you so," I chirped. He was savoring the pizza like anything. He was already on his fifth slice, I was nibbling at my third slice while gawking at him in disbelief. "What?" he raised his eyebrows at my inquisitive eyes. "Nothing," I remarked and looked away. It was a bit chilly but pleasant. The way the wind caresses my hair and cheeks gives me a serene feeling. A phone call broke me from my little bubble. I checked the caller's id to see my senior journalist's number flashing. I took the call and cleared my throat. "Mr. Graham," "Ms. Sandros, there is a rumor about Jedrick, he is here for a month for his upcoming pr
Adeline's Pov~ I didn't know how I arrived home. I didn't remember when I had my dinner with Arsenio. The entire evening was a blur. "Adeline!" someone waved their hand in front of my face. I snapped out of my daze and focused on the person in front of me. "Are you listening?" Arsenio asked me with a frown, as if, trying to read my mind. I didn't even remember what I was thinking about. Maybe, I was thinking about a particular blue-eyed man. "Sorry," I probably looked dumb in front of him. "I asked you, is there is an extra bed or a blanket with you?" he repeated as if talking to a toddler. "Yeah… Yeah, yeah I do." I nodded my head and walked to my closet to retrieve an extra bed. That I have with me whenever I have a sleepover with Lisa, my college mate, now she lives in New York. Good old days! "Are you okay? You look very much dosed off the entire evening." He pointed out. "I'm fine.
I turned around to come, face to chest with Arsenio. My mouth dropped to the floor, my eyes widened at the sight in front of me. He was Arsenio but he had this huge white feather behind his back. He looked like an angel from heaven. Oh my god! He wasn't lying all this time. He was indeed from a different realm. The thing that I saw on television was him after all. What the hell was going on in my life? *************** Arsenio's Pov~ We were going dress shopping for me, after Adeline's work here. I really appreciate the way she provides for me even though I was a complete, stranger to her. But I couldn't rely on her. I must find a job during my stay in this realm. I met a middle-aged man today, while I had my early morning run in the same park that I visited yesterday. He told me that they were looking for a security guard in his office. He thought that I'll be fit for the position due t
The other gang members had discussed something about, supplying something to Jedrick. I thought back to their conversation, I think the bald guy told him something along the line of supplying it in the upcoming week. What it might be? Were they trafficking people? Or was it drugs? Let us wait and watch. After buying for Arsenio, we bought some men's suits and clothes for me. He raised his eyebrows at me in question. I gave him a wink and paid for our things. I made up my mind, whether the devil likes me or not he was going to take me as his secretary. ************ The very next week I was standing in front of Jedrick & co, it was a sixty-seven-floor building. It looked so posh and intimidating. I was wearing a suit and my hair was tucked inside my front lace wig. It almost looked like real hair. Thanks to modern technology. I thank everything holy because I was not interviewed by Jedrick. I had an i
This woman was entirely different from the woman I saw for the past two days. I could see that she adores her daughter more than anything in this world. Maybe she was not all that she let people see. "I won't be taking her next weekend, I'll be busy." The guy informed my lady boss, nodding at the little girl in her arms. "No problem," she tried to remain expressionless but I could see right through her eyes that she was pleased about it. "Bye, bye, daddy." The little girl waved at the guy. He must be my boss' husband. **************** Adeline's Pov~ Without Arsenio, my apartment looked dreary and forlorn. I didn't realize that his presence was the closest to having a family since my granny's death. I think I would be missing his tease, laughter, and companionship from my boring, everyday life. I was standing in front of the devil's hell. Today I'll be officially taking the position of J
