Hot & Enchanting (De La Cruz Saga) (5 page)

“I don’t usually come out to the clubs,” replies Jacki smiling up at him.
Hmmm he’s not very confident, but he’s not really bad. He’s sort of nice looking
.

The song ended and the Chico looks quickly at Jacki. “Do you want to dance the next song?” asks the Chico.

“Si that would be nice,” replies Jacki nodding. “What’s your name?”

“My name is Ruben Casas, what’s yours. What do you like to do?” asks Ruben gazing down.

“My name is Jacqueline Cortez. I usually like to read and work out at the gym,” replies Jacki smiling up at him. The song ends and the Chico escort her back to the bar. “Thanks for the dances,” says the Chico before leaving. 

She watches him leave and shrugs her shoulders. I think that we didn’t click and he knows it,
thinks Jacki.

Jacki takes a drink of her margarita watching Bella and Jessy dance. “So you didn’t like him?” asks Paty watching the Chico leave.

“He’s okay Paty, but we didn’t click. You know what I mean,” replies Jacki nodding.

“Si amiga, yeah I know. It happens all of the time. Sometimes I think why bother,” says Paty taking a drink of her margarita. “But I also know that our príncipe will not come to our casa and knock.”

“No he will not and that’s why I decided to start going out,” says Jacki watching another Chico approach her.  She dances with several chicos all night, but not one was able to catch her interest.

The next morning Jacki wakes up early with anxiety.
Oh dios mio. I need to get up. I need to see if Ricky is in his casa. I need to know if he stayed out all night
, ponders Jacki taking a quick shower.
It doesn’t matter that I stayed up late. I always have to wake up early to go see if he’s home.

Si, I’m always checking up on him. I have been doing this for years. I know that this doesn’t help me to let go. I don’t know when I will stop doing this. I need to let go. I know that he’s not for me
, thinks Jacki walking down the street.

She turns the corner and smiles.
Oh yeah, my baby is home. Uh, yeah, he’s not my baby. I only needed to know that he didn’t stay out all night. Gracias dios mio, now I can enjoy my day. I know that he goes to the club on Fridays. He goes out on Saturdays and usually with a chica. I know that he doesn’t stay all night. I know that he’s no saint, but it makes me feel better that he does return a casa.

Jacki returns to her casa to have breakfast and enjoys her day with her familia. Si I know that Ricky will have dinner with his familia,
thinks Jacki smiling.

The next day Ricky is parking his carro. He gets out and notices Jacki walking to the elevators
.

Damn it, there’s my hot chica. Wow look at her sweet ass. Hell yeah, she has awesome legs. Oh yeah, real sweet.  I’m going to die if I don’t get some. She has me hot as soon as I see her. Why haven’t I seen her before? I haven’t been able to talk to her at work. She’s driving me loco with need. This is too much,
contemplates Ricky observing her enter the elevator.

Damn it! I can’t follow her or talk to her at work. This is hell. Every time that I see her, my body responds instantly. Oh damn no, I can’t stand this,
thinks Ricky adjusting himself.

The elevator doors start closing as Jacki turns away from the panel after pushing the close button.
Damn it, there’s Ricky. He’s looking at me,
ponders Jacki moving quickly to the side.
Omg he’s so hot and muy cute, cute. Calm down my corazon. He’s not for us.

Jacki walks in a trance into her office putting her purse away, this is unbelievable
.

I’m encountering Ricky so often. I wonder why? I never ran into him in the last two years that I have been working here. I always saw him from afar and recognized that he is not for me.

Ricky appears to want to talk to me. His hermosos green eyes were seeking me out. Yeah, right Jacki! Stop dreaming and start working,
muses Jacki sighing as she turns on her computer to do some entries.

Later that day
Jacki is turning the corner in a hurry to leave.
I have to make it to my dentist appointment,
thinks Jacki.

Ohhhh! Wow
! Smash! All of the magazines and her purse went flying all over the hallway.

Oh dios mio,
thinks Jacki.  She recognizes who she ran into, with huge hazel eyes looking up into the incredible green eyes of the De La Cruz. 

Oh dios mio, this De La Cruz is the sexy, guapo, wicked playboy hunk. Ricardo Emmanuel De La Cruz. Ricky
, muses Jacki with intense anxiety.
He’s my red hot wicked enchantment, my amor.

Ricky quickly catches her, pulling her close to him, preventing her from falling onto the floor. He looks at Jacki, gazing into her huge hazel eyes.

Wow, damn yes. It’s my hot muñeca that has been driving me loco. I wonder why she’s in such a hurry. She feels warm, luscious, and purely incredible. Look at her precioso huge, hazel eyes,
contemplates Ricky with amazement
.

Ricky continues holding onto Jacki, he appears to be in a trance.
Si, I need her closer,
he thinks pulling her closer.

Hmmm, she smells amazing,
leaning in closer without thinking of what he’s doing.

I’m instantly feeling the familiar response in my shaft. Damn I’m reacting to her nearness with extreme hot
pasión
. Why only with her? Wow, this pasión and need is incredible. I have never, ever felt this strong attraction with any other mujer, except for this one. 

I have been trying to get close to talk to her. This chica is driving me loco. The one that has me all worked up every time that I see her walk, swaying her incredible sweet ass.

This feeling is incredible. She fits perfectly in my arms, she’s absolutely enchanting. I love her scent. Oh damn, I want her. I want some.
Ricky pulls her closer to him holding her tight.

Oh dios mio, is he for real? Why wouldn’t he let go?  I know he loves todas las chicas. I honestly don’t think he likes me? I’m just a simple chica. He never did notice me before, and I spent lots of days over his casa with las bebes.
Si las bebes, his hermanas Claudia and Verónica De La Cruz,
ponders Jacki gazing at him with
speculation.

Si, that was years ago. Las bebe’s and I were only in junior high when I started spending time at his casa.

I have buried that dream a long, long time ago. I try to bury my amor.  I have accepted the fact that I’m not the kind of
mujer that Ricky is attracted to. I would be a total nerd if it wasn’t for my hermana Jessy.

Of course Ricky would want to take advantage of this opportunity to play. Once a playboy, he’ll always be a wicked playboy.

Si, I will not acknowledge him. I’m not another one of his muñecas, that’s for sure.  I will make sure of that. It doesn’t matter that he’s hot, sexy, and a deliciously wicked enchantment. I saw him with that puta, reasons
Jacki
.

“So sorry, Señor De La Cruz, I wasn’t paying attention,” says Jacki pushing away from out of his embrace.  “I’ll pick up all of my things immediately. So, so, sorry if I have caused you any delays.”

Ricky feels like he’s barely waking up from a dream.
Why is she pushing me away? Do I repulse her? I have never had a chica react like this. What’s wrong? Que pasa, what’s wrong with my hot muñeca?
I don’t think that she dislikes me, thinks Ricky with bewilderment.

Ricky realizes that Jacki is quickly retrieving all of her magazines
. I need to assist this muñeca to retrieve her belongings. Si, maybe I can get my hot munecas name and number. I can still feel her warmth on my body.

Ricky rushes to aid her, bending, retrieving her purse, handing it to her. “Here’s your purse muñeca. What’s your name,” asks Ricky with urgency.

“Señor De La Cruz, I work in payroll. I’m an accountant. Si, I have been working here for almost two years,” replies Jacki with a polite smile. “I’m sorry and I’m in a hurry. I have an appointment. Thank you so much for assisting me in retrieving my purse.”

Jackie quickly strolls down the hall, turning the corner, walking into the elevators. 

Si, I made it without giving him my information
, thinks Jacki sighing with relief.

Gracias Dios mio, the elevator is dropping off other employees, and I don’t have to wait around. I really don’t need any complications at work.

I cannot believe him. He was holding me tighter and closer as time went on. I’m not one of his muñecas and never will be. He sure has some nerve. Si, I recognize that he’s scrumptious, hot, sexy, and electrifyingly wicked. I will always want him. My body burns with need.  Si, my corazon will not stop from loving him.  I also realize that todas las chicas want him. The entire media is always catching him with a different chica every week. I caught him with a chica a few days ago. That’s unreal.

It’s not like he would like me or stay around long enough to get to know me. Just forget that he held you in his arms, even if it was heavenly.

Jacki, uh, what’s wrong with you? I need to just forget it. He’s not for me. I have already buried him deep in my corazon once. I have to do it
again. He’s keeps slipping out.
Jacki is scolding herself as she opens her carro.

*  *  *

What happen? Where did she go? Why did my hot muñeca disappear before I was able to get her name? That’s extraordinarily odd, she appeared anxious to get away from me.
Que pasa con esta chica (What’s wrong with this chica.). Chicas don’t run away from me.
Damn no, las chicas chase after me.

I can’t look for my hot muñeca. This will cause issues for la familia’s company and the moral of all of the employees. That’s why I never attempted to meet any of the attractive mujeres that work here. Oh well, it’s not to be today. I can’t seek her out, not good policy,
ponders Ricky.
I will find a way to get her name and number. She will be mia, only mia
for eternity.

He shrugs his shoulders and continues to his office. Ricky forgets about her for a little while.

Damn I have to hurry
up. I want to get to the office early. I need to see the hot muñeca. She’s driving me insane. I can’t sleep, what’s up with that,
ponders Ricky exiting his carro.

He strides quickly to the elevator praying to see her.
Damn, she’s not here. This is the same time that I saw her yesterday. I need to see her and to talk to her. I need to get her name and number. This is the only way I can approach her, right before she goes into the building
, contemplates Ricky.

Hell, now I have to wait until lunch time.
Ricky goes to work on his new contracts having a difficulty concentrating.

Hmmm, I don’t have a novia and never had a novia. I haven’t dated any mujeres in the last few days. Wow this is incredible. It’s the longest time ever that I haven’t been with a mujer. I truly believe that I’m tired of messing with all of these viejas locas. I’m done with them.

My mujer needs to be sweet, hermosa, and hot. She has to be mia, only mia. Yeah I don’t want una loca mujer. I want una buena mujer with my traditional Mexican values and customs.

I wonder if any exists in today’s world. Yeah that will be a true reina for me. Si she’ll be my reina. She will be only mia, solo mia for eternity. Hell yeah, I need my hot chica,
considers Ricky smiling
.  

Ricky finishes the last contract, stands to take it to Jose Enrique for his review.
Well it’s time to give Jose Enrique these contracts,
ponders Ricky unhappily, walking out of his office.

I made it on time and Jose Enrique will not know that I was running behind. I don’t know why I’m not able to concentrate. All I do is think about my hot muñeca. I can’t get her out of my mind. I don’t know why.

Is it because I can’t talk to her? Is the fact that she keeps running away from me and not to me the enchantment. This is amazing. I have never had to chase las chicas. This is awesome. I need to talk to her,
contemplates Ricky striding down the hall.
