Hot & Enchanting (De La Cruz Saga) (13 page)

“Primos I want you to meet mi novia. Mi amor, Jessica Maria Cortez,” says Jose Enrique to his primos Ricky, Tony, Alex, and Bella with a huge feliz smile.

“Mi amor, this is Ricky, Tony, Alex, and Bella,” introduces Jose Enrique. “Alex is a doctor. Tony is our architect, he designs our buildings. You and Tony will be working together. Bella and Ricky manage different areas of la familia’s company. They’re both attorneys. Ricky handles the company’s contracts. Bella manages our employees and HR matters. Paty manages the supplies, interior decoration, as you know, and any other immediate needs that arise,” explains Jose Enrique extremely proud of his familia.

“Nice to meet you,” says Jessy smiling shyly. 

“Jessy, amiga, do you want to go to the ladies’ room with me?” asks Paty as she turns to her prima Bella. “Do you also want to go, prima?”

“Si, I need to go to the ladies’ room,” replies Bella nodding. She looks, at Jessy.

“Would you like me to order you something to drink?” asks Jose Enrique. “Do you want a margarita?” Jose Enrique remembers watching her drink a margarita at the club.

“Si, I will like that. I’ll be back in a few,” says Jessy smiling, standing up to follow her amigas Paty and Bella.

“I can see why you’re so in love, primo,” says Alex, watching as Jessy walks away.

“Tu novia is really bella,” says Tony nodding in agreement.

“I’m feliz for you,” says Ricky. “I think I remember her when she used to hang around tu casa, Jose Enrique. Paty and Jessy must have been in high school. I used to see her look at you with lots of amor, but you didn’t even know she was there.”

“Well, now I do know that she’s there and I also know that she is toda mia,” replies Jose Enrique with a possessive note in his voz.

“Primo, don’t get defensive. We know that Jessy is tu novia and tu future esposa. We can see that you’re serious,” says Tony, shaking his head.

“Jessy is in love with you, and I hope that you’re serious Jose Enrique,” says Alex, considering Jose Enrique.

“So Jessy is going to work at la familia’s company as the interior design manager. At first I thought it was a crazy idea. Then I changed my mind after thinking about it. I realized it will be a great new direction to take the company,” says Ricky taking a drink of his Corona.

“It does sound like it will work out. Jessy and I can collaborate as I design the buildings, and she can design the interior decoration as we go through the projects. I can see the benefit and the service that we can provide our clients,” says Tony nodding.

The waiter approaches the table. “Will you like something to drink, sir?” asks the waiter, looking at the group.

“Yes, please bring me a bottle of champagne, the best one.  El Patron tequila for some shots and a blended margarita,” says Jose Enrique looking at his primos with a raised eyebrow.

“It will be just a moment, sir,” says the waiter, taking the order.

“I can see that we’re celebrating our new manager and the future wedding,” says Ricky with some amusement. “I am so feliz it’s you and not me that’s getting married primo,” Ricky laughs drinking his Corona.

“Are we going to the club after dinner?” asks Tony.

“I want to spend some time with Jessy primos. You guys can go and have fun,” says Jose Enrique. He waits for their reactions.

“Great, you’re not even married yet, and you’re starting to pull away from us,” says Alex. “I know that you want to spend some time with Jessy, but you can spend time with Jessy at the club.”

“I can’t wait to see you locos fall, and I hope you fall hard,” says Jose Enrique. He turns around to see if the mujeres are coming back.

“I can see why you were stressing out last week,” says Alex. “I think that you have fallen hard.” Alex attempts to not laugh at his primo. 

“Okay, I’m ready. Let’s go back to the hombres,” says Jessy, adjusting her hair and dress. “Do I look okay?”

“Si, you look really bella and sexy. No wonder my poor hermano is all in love,” says Paty smiling. They walk out, returning to the table.

Jose Enrique stands to pull out her chair when they arrive at their table. Jessy sits down and looks around. Jose Enrique’s primos are looking at her with curiosity and amazement.

Once seated, Jose Enrique also pulls out the chairs of his hermana and prima before sitting down again reaching for Jessy’s mano.

“Welcome to la familia Jessy,” says Alex. He looks at her as he makes the toast.

“I second that,” says los primos in agreement. “We want to go to the club after dinner,” says Ricky. “Jose Enrique doesn’t want to go.”

“Stop whining Ricky,” says Paty. “You’re old enough to go without him.”

“You primos need to allow Jose Enrique to enjoy his engagement and su novia,” says Bella.

Jose Enrique squeezes Jessy’s mano. “Well, let’s order dinner because I’m starving,” says Jose Enrique. “Mi amor, what will you like to eat?”

“I’ll love some flautas,” says Jessy, smiling muy contenta.

“Oh, that sounds good,” says Bella. “I’m also going to get some.”

“I will have some carne asada,” says Jose Enrique.

“I think I’ll have that too,” respond los primos.

“You see mi amor, they will always do what I do,” says Jose Enrique grinning wickedly. “I bet they’ll get married right after I do.”

Jessy starts to laugh looking at los primos.

“I’ll get married right after you do primo, if I can get lucky like you,” says Ricky. “If I can get a novia as bella as yours, I’ll run to the altar.”  The primos laugh at Ricky.

“Jessy, we’ll be working together on the next new buildings that we’re building,” says Tony. “Paty tells us that you have grasped la familia’s concept for our buildings.”

“Si, and I am really feliz with Jessy’s interior designs,” says Jose Enrique. “I know that we’re taking the right step toward the right direction in providing this additional interior-decorating service for our clients.”

“Jessy will manage the interior designs department,” announces Paty, really feliz for her amiga.

“It’s great that Jessy is also going to work in la familia’s compania,” says Bella.

“I know that our padres will be feliz with this new service,” states Ricky, thinking about the whole package of new services that can be offered to the clients. “We’ll need to get together when you have some packages ready, so I can draw up some new contracts for it,” says Ricky taking a drink.

The waiter returns with their food and everybody starts to eat.
“Okay, this is a very nice dinner. Thanks for coming to celebrate Jessy’s new management position,” says Jose Enrique as he starts to stand. “We’re leaving now. It has been a long day for all of us. Adiós primos see ya mañana,” says Jose Enrique. “Don’t stay out too late. We have lots of work to do.”

“Yeah, yeah, we can see you’re already settling into married life,” says Ricky, laughing as he walks away.

Chapter Fourteen

He hasn’t looked for me
again,
thinks Jacki. Jacki goes to her desk and starts to work.
I need to stop thinking about our hot encounters. Oh yeah, all I do is dream of making love. I need to forget him. He makes me so wanton. No more dreams
.
Si, I need to remember this. Ricardo Emanuel De La Cruz is not for me, hmmm,
thinks Jacki turning on computer.

Later in the day Jack walks to the gym to work out. The gym is full of people and Ricky is there. He usually works out at lunch time, but today he didn’t. Ricky is on the treadmill and immediately sees Jacki walk in.

Damn yes, she’s here at the gym. I get to see her sweet ass and her work out,
contemplates
Ricky gazing into her eyes.
Hell yes, she’s remembering our erotic hot moments
. He continues to run observing her turn quickly away from him. She strides quickly into the women’s lockers room.

Oh dios mio, Ricky is here working out,
thinks Jacki blushing, gazing into his hermoso green eyes.
Si he remembers and I’m so embarrassed, I acted incredibly wanton.

Jacki changes into her work outfit and walks out into the gym. She goes to do some weights attempting to avoid turning to look at Ricky.

I’m going to die. I can’t believe that he’s focusing on me and my workout. I don’t want to meet his gaze.  I know that he’s also remembering our hot loving making. Oh I wish that I did have the rights to go into the shower with him. I want to touch him and lather his entire body with my hands. Then I want to taste every inch of him until he begs for more.  I better stop thinking about it, because I will get all worked up. It’s bad enough thinking of him at night, going crazy
with the need to feel him near me and inside me. I’m going crazy with this pasión that he has awaken,
thinks Jacki flushing.

Ricky observes Jacki work out with the weights the entire time that he’s finishing his workout.

Damn, she’s hot, and extremely sexy. I love her body. I know that she’s thinking about us. She’s flushed and not from the workout. I will never forget how she looks fully aroused with pasión. I can’t talk to her now, but I will. Eventually I will be able to talk to her and I will not let her go. Great, I’m done working out. I have to take a shower, because she has me all worked up.  I know that the employees will notice. All of the guys are done and gone. There are only a few women finishing their workout
, thinks Ricky getting off the treadmill.

He grabs his towel to wipe his face and the towel falls down covering his crotch. He then walks to the locker room to shower. 
Gracias dios mio, the men are all done. I have the locker room to myself.  I wonder if she will walk in, yeah right
, contemplates Ricky. He goes to his own private shower stall that’s only for la familia.

Ricky takes off his clothes and starts to shower remembering the hot erotic moments.  He closes his eyes picturing Jacki standing at the door, watching him. Her eyes are feverish and she’s flushed with need. She walks towards him, taking off her clothes, and joins him in the shower.

He grabs her small waist with both hands and lifts her up to give her hungry hot besos, plunging desperately into her hot heart. Wild with pasión he takes her fast and hard, enjoying her tight hot heart.  He feels her scratch his back with her long nails, going back up to bury them in his hair. She pulls him closer to devour his mouth with all of the hot pasión that she feels for him. 

Ricky reaches his hard jetted release crying out.  “Damn yes! She’s hot, this is hot” growls Ricky falling back onto the wall.

Wow, I can’t believe how incredibly hot and obsessive I am for her. I know it will be awesome when I do finally have her in my arms again. She’s mia, only mia. I have to have her,
thinks Ricky turning off the water.

Oh dios mio, Ricky is now taking a shower. I know what he’s doing, I can feel it. I want to watch him and touch him so desperately,
thinks Jacki. I need to get changed and leave before he comes out.

Jacki strides quickly to the women’s locker room and approaches the men’s locker room that’s located before the women’s.
Oh si, I can stand here and listen. The other mujers are still working out,
thinks Jacki smiling. She stops at the door, leans close to the entrance, and listens to Ricky moaning.

Si I know what he’s doing. He moaning from pleasure, he’s so hot
, thinks Jacki biting her lower lip.
He’s driving me loca with need. Oh si, he reached his release. Is he thinking of me
? I need to stop listening to him. I can be caught, he’s done. Jacki quickly strides down a few feet to enter the women’s locker room to take a cold shower and change.

What should I do? I can’t stop thinking of Ricky and wanting him. He makes me so hot and this is crazy. I should not have stopped to listen to him. He’s driving me loca
, ponders Jessy in the shower.
Thank you dios mio, the shower is cooling my body
.
I hope that he already left the gym. I can’t handle seeing him again. I don’t want to risk acting stupid. He is the boss. I don’t need to get fired. I have to remember that next time that I want to stop to listen to him. I’m acting very wanton.

Ricky walks out of the locker room striding out of the gym thinking about Jacki.
I know that she’s either in the women’s locker room or she’s already left. I need to figure out a way to see her and to love her. She’s in my blood, etched to my
alma
, and linked to my corazon. Damn this is so amazing and I don’t know her name. She’s driving me loco. I can’t even enjoy another mujer,
thinks Ricky walking towards his carro
