The Traps of Black Swan

'A condition?' Aarvi thought what could it be that Aaron would ask against teaching her to tie the tie, "To tie you the tie every day?"

Aaron brushed their nose hearing her guess so effortlessly, "My girlfriend reads my mind now." He kissed her forehead before pulling her to sit on the bed facing each other.

Seeing her disappointment quickly turn eagerness to learn, he couldn't help but smile at her happiness at the silliest things.

He held the tie and started narrating while she wobbled her head hearing him, "There are many types of tie knots but I will teach you which I wear. Windsor and half Windsor knots..."

Aarvi watched and asked him to repeat the second time before she tried it. Aaron knows she is smart and could learn quickly but didn't expect her to excel at her first try and heard her exclaim, "This is a piece of cake."

He watched her unknot and made the half Windsor tie knot for the day before pulling him up to stand. She tucked the tie in his vest making sure there were no creases in it and artfully folded the tie under his collar with all her focus on grooming him without caring about their distance or his gaze.

"Now, I want to kiss you more."

'I should forget about the peace now.' Aarvi thought looking at him blatantly and repeatedly messing her mind.

Aarvi forced herself to think straight and asked to know what he was up to, "That's it?"

'I can do it and get over it, right? Then I will be able to focus on my work.' She thought to herself.

'That's it?' It definitely sounded provoking for him. His arm wrapped around her slim waist and pulled against his body. Her eyes slightly widened and went mute without knowing how to react.

His thumb gently caressed her cheek as his low yet hypnotic voice sounded gazing at her in the eyes as he responded to her, "No."

'No? Then why did he say he wanted to kiss me? Aargh, this is so confusing.' Aarvi thought ready to get out of his embrace but he continued after the pause.

"I want to kiss those delicious lips of yours, nibble them, bite them, hear you moan against my lips trying to push me while I soothe the pain caressing with my tongue before sliding in to taste your sweet mouth, fight and tangle with your tongue while you go weak on your knees and cling on to me, overwhelmed by new sensations you never felt yet you couldn't get away but yearn for more and pull me closer to feel the warmth and try to match, then completely breathless in my arms clutching my shirt, you ask me to let you breathe."

Aarvi: ?

Did he try to seduce her with his magnetic tone and words? If yes, he so damn won it.

Her toes had curled in her black pumps, she might fall if he unwraps his arm from her waist, she felt butterflies in her stomach tingling her whole body, her heart wanted to pound out of her chest while her hand clutched his vest so tight it started crease forgetting she has to breathe, her face was burning bright red yet stared at him in the eyes having no ability to think what to do or how to react.

She had thought she wasn't naive and was stone-hearted for following her plans without mercy on those people. But here he was standing right before her, kicking her sanity out of the window just by his words or maybe his voice or maybe his appealing eyes, she couldn't even decide that.

Aaron leaned closer to her and whispered in her ear, "That's the kiss I want."

Aarvi finally blinked and took a deep breath through her mouth while he pushed his head back to look at her and indifferently raised his brows despite knowing how much he could affect her.

She slowly got out of his arms and turned around before sitting on the bed confusing him. The little bird soon composed to her tigress form before lifting her head to glare at him.

Aaron wasn't expecting her reaction so he patiently waited, saw her furious, and… also confused?

Aarvi's voice sounded with a mixture of anger and confusion, "Aaron Rivas, you are doing it on purpose, don't you?"

Aaron really wanted to ask what he did but he kept mum so that she could speak out why she was so confused. 'Did I say too much?' He asked himself but shrugged it off as it was anyway going to happen sooner.

Aarvi stomped her feet standing in front of him, "I am going to kick some today, instead of thinking and improvising my plan and to keep my guard up against that stupid asshole, here I am thinking about you and the kiss. There you go continue to mess my thoughts. Do I look invincible to you?..."

Aaron controlled laughing hearing his Cupcake's weird way of confessing everything out without caring about hiding it. Even he was thinking about her, their kiss but she is overwhelmed with too much on her mind.

He took a step closer and tidied her frizzy hair while she continued to rant out without pushing him away. "I am not alone this time, Shawn wants to join me. I can't stop him and make him sad so I don't have a chance to make any mistake due to distraction and put his life in danger. Holy, you are such a distraction. Now I doubt I might sit there, think of you and idiotically smile instead of making them cry. I don't want to go easy on them. At this rate, I might go crazy, ruin my own plans, and get caught to that psycho."

Aaron quickly held her hands before she could tousle her hair and make it a bird's nest. Well, he still loved her confused state blurting all out but he knew she was troubled by thinking she might be distracted even after leaving his side. 

He closed the distance and coiled his arms around to give her a much-needed hug seeing her pout in displease. He was happy to know he stays on her mind but of course, he didn't want to be her distraction when she has to be focused. 

He kissed her crown and gently caressed her back head while she relaxed wrapping her arms around him. He asked to clear her thoughts, "Why do you think you will be distracted?"

Aarvi gave a thought before responding, "Because whenever I was in action, I used to be calm thinking about it as on... last Saturday. But now you are dancing in my mind tossing other thoughts out."

Aaron lightly hummed in response before asking, "Are you the same with all?"

Aarvi realized what she was missing, "Nope, I am only soft-hearted with you. I won't be the same, especially in front of those scums."

Aaron smiled resignedly seeing her turning grim remembering them but the girl announced mischievously, "Not bad, oxytocin is still helpful."

Her oxytocin battery pulled her ear and asked, "Doubting yourself?"

Aarvi shook her head realizing he asked her regarding her plan for today.

He left her ear and she again hugged him to cuddle more, "I will be careful next time. Don't stress out."

"Heh?" Aarvi raised her head to face him thinking what will he be careful before realizing she had called him a distraction, "No, no, I didn't mean that. It's like work and my life. I don't want to collide both. I will decide when to be distracted and when to be focused. This distraction is good to stay away from the stress."

Aarvi Evans, who has control over everything, with an exception of love and Aaron. He petted her head proudly, "The romance is inevitable. I..."

Aarvi quickly pressed her palm on his lips hearing romance thinking he might again seduce her and said frantically, "Don't, don't… I will go crazy again." 

She quickly looked around to spot her handbag, softly yet rapidly pecked on his cheek, lifted her hand from his lips, then she swiftly grabbed her handbag and ran out in a hurry while he silently chuckled.

'Doozy!' He thought and smiled to himself. He likes how she openly accepts her feelings instead of putting on a front.

He didn't doubt her capabilities but had more confidence than she had in herself. It was just her presumption of 'I am not a little girl.' that hit her a little hard when she is new to a romantic relationship.

Knowing he will be alone for breakfast, he didn't hurry downstairs leisurely thinking about her.

Her plan for the day - Payback to the Hays family, monitor the plan to destroy five officers, and making one go insane.

---

At Hays family villa.

President Hays, the grandfather of Vance Hays, was getting ready for the office. He was hoping the project plan Vance is going to present to be successfully accepted and they could form an alliance with Evans Industries.

He hoped the day would be the beginning of creating a new milestone in the business history of Hays International.

Soon his mobile went off on the dressing table. He glanced at the screen which was displaying, 'Secretary.' At his nod of the head, the servant who was helping him, answered the call on the speaker.

[President Hays, hurry to the office immediately.]

President Hays was confused why his secretary was panicked and his voice was anxious. "What happened, Harper?" President Hays calmly asked.

The secretary on the other end behaved like he was seeing the ghost and stammered, "P- President Hays, y-you won't believe me i-if I say it. President Hays, please hurry up." He almost cried to plead with him.

President Hays frowned and stood up in a jerk. He instructed the servant, "Ask the driver to pull the car."

The servant ran out quickly while President Hays thought of every possibility while leaving the villa. He didn't know he was going to be more shocked than his secretary.
