The Man Full of Wounds
Chapter 33

Lunch break, Alanna chose to eat in the office cafeteria. Feeling lonely at lunch alone. When he arrived in Jakarta he had not made any new friends, he was busy with work while at the hotel and went straight home when he came home from work. Slightly regretful about not getting along with the hotel staff.

"Alanna ate it herself ?" ask Mr. Ariel while sitting in the front seat of Alanna's desk.

"Sir Ariel Tumben ate here ?" ask Alanna wonder.

"Just want to eat here."

"O...so."

"Alanna has a boyfriend?" asked Ariel suddenly curious.

"Nothing." Alanna answered briefly and honestly because she did not have a boyfriend just a husband. "Why did Mr Ariel ask like that ?" Alanna asked, frowning in wonder.

"There's someone asking me to know you." Answer Mr. Ariel.

"I can't have a boyfriend for now." Refuse Alanna.

"Get acquainted first, make friends also does not matter if it turns out you are not suitable." Mr. Ariel persuaded Alanna.

Long Alanna thought before answering. "All right." Answered Alanna was finally followed with a relieved smile mixed with pleasure by Mr. Ariel.

"I call his man." Said Mr. Ariel standing up making Alanna surprised.

"Now ?" ask Alanna.

"Yes, wait here." Mr. Ariel said otherwise go. Not long after that appeared together with the man. "Alanna knew her name was Rudy Adam." Mr. Ariel introduced the man.

"Call me Rudy." Rudy introduced himself to a friendly smile, stalling his hands to shake hands.

Alanna welcomes a helping hand from Rudy. "Alanna." And smile back.

"I haven't seen you here in a while." Said Rudy. "I work at the HC Staff section."

"More precisely HC chief of staff." Says Mr. Ariel excited.

"Sorry, I'm new here so I don't know all the employees at the hotel." Alanna.

"It's okay, I'm glad Alanna wants to be friends with me."

"Then I go first, you guys continue your conversation." Mr. Ariel left.

"Alanna just moved into this hotel ?" asked Rudy while they were both staying.

"Yes, I just moved from Surabaya about two weeks more."

"Already adapted to the work environment here ?"

"Little." Alanna smiled wryly. "There are still some things that I don't understand so I still occasionally ask Mr. Ariel."

"Not even half a year."

"Great yes Alanna, not long ago work has become the head of the room section." Rudy was amazed.

"If Rudy's been how many years ?" ask Alanna.

"It's been five years."

"Over long ago." That's just Alanna's comment.

Long they were silent, Alanna spent her lunch while Rudy just stared at Alanna which made Alanna a little clumsy in her making. "Can you ask for your mobile number ? to meet and talk next time." Rudy asked a moment later, taking out his phone.

Long Alanna thought, thinking of all possibilities but would look arrogant if she did not give her mobile number, with the good intention of people want to make friends. Picking up Rudy's cell phone and pressing the number button on the phone screen then returning it to Rudy.

"That's my cell phone number." Alanna said when Rudy saw some numbers on his phone screen.

"Thank you, I'll keep it." Said Rudy and then typed his mobile phone screen to save Alanna's mobile number.

"I'm sorry I have to go back to my room, I still have a lot of work to do." Pamit Alanna standing up.

Rudy stood up. "Then next time we talk again." The one answered a nod by Alanna before turning away.

Routine as usual, when returning from the office Mr. Risno was waiting at the door of the hotel to take Alanna home.

Upon arriving home, Alanna headed straight for her room. Silence home today because Mama Rani and papa Arian went to visit the house of papa Arian's sister named Yapto who then became a witness to her marriage. Choosing to take a warm bath with aromatherapy soap to relieve the pain he felt. Almost half an hour Alanna soaked, finished because the water inside the bath began to cool then headed for the shower to shampoo her long hair. Wearing a bathrobe then walked open the bathroom door while looking down to wrap her wet hair in a thick towel so as not to realize the presence of someone in the corner of the room who was opening the suit that was used up in the put on.

Leisurely walk towards the special drawer of underwear, after her walk towards the mirror that is the size of a body. Untied her bathrobe and began to open the bathrobe, halted when she felt someone's gaze, looked back and was surprised by the presence of an unexpected Alanna. "Mas Zack !." Alanna was glued to her spot staring at Zack, still unaware of her open shoulders and upper back.

Zack walked up to Alanna with a gaze that made Alanna's hair stand up and stop right behind Alanna.

Unable to see Zack's gaze made Alanna look forward to looking at the mirror looking at Zack from the reflection of the mirror and only realized when she saw the reflection of herself in the mirror, her shoulders and back were open. Immediately pull the bathrobe to cover his body that is open but blocked by the hands of Zack who first hugged his body from behind.

"Are you free in this room when I'm not around ? wearing your interior in front of the mirror ?" zack asked in a hoarse voice, looking at Alanna through the mirror reflection.

"I didn't know Zack was home. When will I go home ? won't we go home tomorrow ?" Alanna answered and asked back. Zack's embrace, his gaze and the breath that hit his nape into one made Alanna's heart beat fast.

"I'm supposed to be home tomorrow, but I'm trying to get work done there until noon and hurry home because I miss someone. Deliberately not telling you to surprise me and like my decision was right." Zack replied, starting to give small kisses on Alanna's open shoulder.

Alanna felt a foreign sensation tickle her body when she felt Zack's lips touch her skin, making her reflexes away but couldn't because Zack tightened her embrace.

"I really like the smell of your body mixed with the smell of soap." Zack's raucous whisper, his lips now turned to Alanna's nape and neck making it hard for Alanna to breathe, feeling his legs that began to feel weak makes him involuntarily lean on Zack's body holding tightly to Zack's arm that hugged his body.

"Mas Zack." The whisper of Alanna closing her eyes began to drift away with the sensation she felt. As she was washed away by the cradle of Zack's lips on her body, Alanna suddenly felt Zack's embrace loosening a little away, making her open her eyes looking at Zack through the reflection of a mirror, looking at Zack with a questioning look.

Looking at her made Zack soft, peek at Alanna's shoulder last time before tidying up Alanna's bathrobe again. "I have promised not to ask for my rights as a husband according to our agreement when we are not married. If this goes on any longer I don't guarantee I can keep my promise." Zack explains making Alanna's face blush in embarrassment. "I'd better take a cold shower to relieve this desire." Zack said with a grim face before walking towards the bathroom leaving Alanna still standing in her place, embarrassed to be easily lulled by Zack's touch.
