BXBX NOVEL Chapter 347 - Training, Day 1
~ Los Angeles ~
Steve ended up working late with Jeff, in order to prepare for Jeff\'s two day absence from office. Usually Steve would accompany Jeff on business trips, but this trip was not for the company, so Jeff decided to leave Steve behind at White corp. to manage things that he can handle while Jeff is not available.
Bridgette was disappointed that she didn\'t get to see Steve that evening. At the same time, she was relieved, because she didn\'t end up in a situation where she needs to decide if it\'s right time or not for them to go all the way.
That evening, Bridgette was in her bed, ready for sleep and thinking things through for hundredth time.
When Bridgette thought that Steve will not have much time for her until Friday, she felt dejected. No matter how much she fears that step of going all the way, Bridgette can\'t deny that she likes Steve, and his company, and his kisses, and his touch. When she is in his embrace it does not take more than minute for her to get fired up and to forget about everything. \'Maybe that is the way it happens. People don\'t think but they get pulled into this need to feel someone…\'
The more Bridgette thought about that afternoon in Steve\'s office, the more her heart rate increased. She caught herself remembering Steve\'s touch, the electrifying one, which combined with his kisses made her mind spin. Bridgette felt her lower abdomen heat up, and her hand slipped inside her panties, touching between her legs. \'Oh, I think that I am ready for that all-the-way step.\', she didn\'t realize how wet she was. She was surprised by realization how much thinking about Steve and what they did excited her. Her mind started imagining what all they could do. How good it would be to feel his skin on hers. How it would feel if his kisses travel all over her body... While Bridgette was consumed in her thoughts, fingers in her panties moved on their own. Within minutes, Bridgette was panting and calling Steve\'s name as waves of pleasure washed over her.
~ Seattle area, Cabin ~
Tuesday morning, Sarah woke up early next to Aiden in a two story cabin-style luxury villa up in the mountain, nearby Seattle.
She put on a black biker shorts and a gray tank-top. When she pulled up tightly her hair into a ponytail, she was ready to go for her training.
Sarah looked at Aiden who was still sleeping. She didn\'t want to wake him up. Sarah leaned in and placed a gentle kiss on his cheek. In next instant, Aiden pulled her down on the bed and his arms wrapped around her, "Did you think of going without saying goodbye?"
"You are awake..." Sarah hugged him and rubbed her face on his chest while inhaling his scent.
She lifted her head and looked him in the eyes, "Why didn\'t you say something?"
"I was watching you get ready." Aiden caressed her cheek.
She enjoyed his touch, "Hmm, I like that. Do you want to join for breakfast?"
"Sure. Give me a minute." Aiden got out of the bed and shortly after came out of the bathroom freshened up and ready for the day.
After breakfast, Sarah went to meet with Stella on the obstacle course, and Aiden went back to the room to work.
So far, Aiden observed that the cabin has much more staff than when they visited last time. Weber sisters are still here, but there are other maids and maintenance workers as well.
…
Sarah came back to the cabin for lunch with Stella.
Sarah headed upstairs to shower and to call Aiden to join them for lunch. Aiden was surprised to see her completely drenched in sweat. "Did you fall into the river?"
"No." She smiled. "Day 1, mom measures speed and accuracy. She will do measurements again at the end of each week."
When she closed the bathroom door behind her, Aiden was trying to remember if he ever saw her that sweaty. \'It seems that her mom is scarier than I thought, if she makes Sarah work this much only for measurements.\'
His resolve not to join them for training, was firmer.
…
Late afternoon Sarah returned from training and went straight for shower. Only when she came out, Aiden noticed that she has number of cuts and bruises on her body. "Your mom is really taking this seriously, isn\'t she?"
"How can you improve if you don\'t work hard?" Sarah used phone next to the bed to make a call and spoke in Russian. Two minutes later, one maid came in with a first aid kit. She cleaned Sarah\'s cuts, applied some ointments on cuts and bruises and put bandages where needed. Aiden observed silently. All was done in few minutes, and the maid left.
"This is better." Sarah smiled. "Ready for dinner?"
Aiden felt his heart ache seeing Sarah like that and pulled her into an embrace. "Are you sure you need to do this?"
Sarah nodded. "Mom is serious, and she must have a good reason."
"Are you not curious what the reason is?"
"Of course, I am... but I feel that it\'s better not to ask. Just how there is a reason for this training, there must be a reason why she is not talking about it. She helped me out many times without asking questions. The right thing to do is not to ask questions."
…
During dinner, three of them casually chatted.
At some point, Stella asked Aiden how is his work going.
"No problems there. All is under control.", Aiden responded without much thought.
Stella smiled. "If it\'s all under control, you can join us for training tomorrow."
Aiden felt chills down his spine looking at Stella\'s sinister smile, but how can he decline? He already said that work is fine, and she is Sarah\'s mother, and she is scary. Aiden faintly smiled and gave a small nod.
"Great!" Stella exclaimed. "I will see you in the morning with Sarah."
Aiden lost his appetite.. He is not sure why, but he has a bad feeling about this.
