Chapter 123: My first kiss

Roxy excused others on behalf of Rian and pulled him out towards her green room.

Rian didn't want to create a scene hence he kept his tone low, "Ms.Stephen, Leave my hand. Where are you taking me?"

Before her response, he was pulled into her room and she locked the door making Rian's face turn dark.

Roxy spoke, "Rian Morgan, why is it hard to meet you in B city?" She was an admirer of his arts.

Rian glared at her for a few seconds, "Ms.Stephen, What's the meaning of this?"

Roxy removed her leather jacket as she responded, "I want you."

She was standing in crop top showing her curves in akimbo.

Rian smirked, "In your dreams."

He turned to leave but Roxy rolled her eyes before pinning him on the wall stopping him to reach the door.

Rian couldn't believe he was pinned by a girl and he realized her strength was too much and he wasn't able to push her aside easily.

'What the freaking hell is going on here?' He thought to himself.

Roxy spoke, "Being an artist, can't you help another artist?"

'Help what?' He forgot to voice and thought to himself.

Roxy left his arms in confusion and dabbed a tissue on his forehead, "Why are you sweating so much? I just asked you to help me with my doubt in my paintings."

Rian breathed a sigh of relief and flung her hand away. "Who says 'I want you' for that?"

Roxy gave him an indifferent look, "So Mr. Morgan has a dirty mind too."

She went aside and arranged her three paintings as she heard Rian's annoyed tone.

"Dirty? Ms. Stephen, For your better knowledge, you dragged me here and locked the door. By removing the jacket and pinning me on the wall, what else were you directing? That's not the way to ask help."

Roxy tied her hair up and pulled him near her paintings. "I feel like these paintings aren't good. It looks completed but I am not getting the feel from it."

Rian shrugged her hand and went through the painting for quite a long without seeing Roxy gazing his serious face.

She could see his flawless skin without pores. Even she became envious of his glossy skin. She felt his occasionally batting eyelids were inviting her. His chiseled jawline added masculine touch but it didn't diminish his beauty.

Rian spoke after checking her painting style, "Ms.Stephen when you sit to paint, have a proper mood leaving other distracting emotions. You have used different brush strokes in the wrong place... This part,..."

Roxy who heard him jolted back to senses and heard him intently for more than half an hour.

After finishing, Rian grabbed a water bottle from aside and drank it as he turned to her.

"Will you take any disciplines?"

Pfft-

Roxy froze.

Rian didn't care about her who he had spat mouthful of water. He dabbed his chin and lips before composing.

"What discipline? Am I looking like an old experienced hag?"

He rolled his eyes and was leaving but Roxy held him and rubbed her face on his chest leaving him dumbstruck.

Roxy grimly spoke, "Don't you have manners?"

Rian's lips twitched hearing her, "Ms. Stephen, You are the one who is mannerless. Am I looking like your father or brother to wipe your face on my cloth? Disgusting."

Roxy was at a loss of words. She wanted to stop him leave and she didn't want to face him with water on her face so she felt it was easier that way.

She kicked his leg which made him fall on the floor.

"Sh*t, What's f*cking wrong with your brain?" He hadn't expected that.

Roxy pulled him up and made him sit on the couch before facing him scanning his face, "Who wants to be your sister or daughter? You are such a rare beauty."

Rian's lips twitched. When Aria teased him saying him 'Beauty' looking or pinching his skin, he hadn't felt anything but he couldn't understand why his heartbeats were high seeing Roxy getting nearer each second.

Her skin looked very tender. Her makeup was very light and her soft lips were in bold red color. Realizing he was looking at her lips, he quickly diverted his attention to her eyes to avoid giving her the wrong idea.

He hated that he couldn't kick her off and his hands were held by her.

Roxy who was just a few inches away asked, "Do you have a girlfriend?"

Rian unthinkingly answered like a puppet hearing her, "No!"

He saw her lips tilt up before pressing on his lips and leave him. "Then who is the girl who you paint her back or half-face in many of your paintings which gets sold so quickly?"

Rian gritted his teeth. 'Was that considered a kiss? Crap. My first kiss.'

Since he was already forced upon, seething in rage, he forcefully turned her who was untying her hair.

Roxy was surprised then her eyes widened as soon as their lips touched. The toughness and boldness she had melted instantly under Rian's domineering kiss as she requited.

Rian broke after a long time but he glared at her flushed face, "Ms.Stephen, you sure are daring to get boy inside and even kiss him."

Then his hand moved from her back to her lower back grazing her bare skin as he smiled devilishly, "Aren't you scared to be taken advantage?"

Hearing no response and seeing the terrific face, he stopped scaring her, "Know your limits."

He was leaving when he heard Roxy, "Hey, who will take responsibility for taking my first kiss?"

Rian paused for less than a second before replying, "Prove me it was your first kiss then I'll take responsibility."

Seeing her proactive, he didn't think it was her first kiss too. He left licking his lips.

Other artists bombarded him with questions to ask about Roxy Stephen as he heard them tell about her.

He got to know she was a mixed-blood child who was living alone in the capital. Her father was a businessman in a different country where she didn't like to go. Her mother was in another country who was a professor at a top college. They hardly meet once or maximum twice a year.

Rian didn't think too much because he thought she was a spoiled heir.

He joined his parents and other three for dinner before returning to the hotel which was under the company of the woods.

Noah wanted to go to club hence the other three joined them leaving Amelia and Rowan in their suite.

They were enjoying music when Roxy pulled Rian aside leaving the other three at the utter shock.

Eva and Aria tortured Noah to know about the girl who had cornered Rian on the couch. But Noah had no idea.

Three intently watched them without diverting their gaze...
