I followed this man I barely knew downstairs, he was beyond good looking. I was both curious about him and cautious I sensed something in him that sang to me. His emerald green eyes drank me in like a predator, it was both thrilling and intimidating.
We sat down on some couches next to couple of drunk girls. One noticed him sit down next to her. Turning she glanced at me then whispered to the other girl, both of them laughed at whatever she had said. Ignoring them I returned my attention to Dantalis.
"So dantalis what's the story?"
"It was a long time ago."
"That doesn't answer my question."
His smile seemed to reach his eyes making them light up.
"I try not to dwel in the past Reece."
"That still doesn't answer my question"
"No it doesn't."
I sighed he clearly was not going to answer me, it made me uneasy.
Instead I tried a new approach.
"Cam and Bree seem very much alike."
"You don't disapprove of their tactics?"
I knew what he meant by his words, Cam was clearly one of those guys that knew what he wanted and didn't hesitate to get it. Bree was much the same they were both for the one night stand scene.
"To each their own, just because I'm not the type to indulge in just any one doesn't mean everyone has to."
I watched as his eyes seemed to bore into mine, reading my very soul. It made me feel extremely venerable under his gaze. No longer being able to stand it I broke the contact looking instead at the girls behind him that seemed to be trying to get Dantalis's attention.
Then one of them put her hand on his shoulder,
"Hey honey wanna ditch the blonde and come back to our place…"
She whispered the last part into his ears.
Not looking at me he said
"Just a second Reece."
He began to start whispering into the girl's ear, I watched her eyes as they widened in delight. Then changed just as fast as fear replaced lust, looking to me her fear ran deeper. Once Dantalis was finished he waited for the girl to react, she seemed frozen in place. Before I could question what he had said someone behind me spoke.
"There you guys are."
Startled I turned to see Bree standing behind me with Cam attached to her back.
"Come on Reece we're going back to the apartment for some after drinks."
Bree winked at me indicating I was to keep Dantalis Company while she and Cam indulged in each other's lust. I looked to Dantalis.
"Are you coming?"
He nodded.
"Sure."
All of us left the club and headed towards our apartment, Bree and Cam taking the lead. I watched as They couldn't seem to keeps their hands of each other. Bree was such a free spirit, she never seemed to get self-conscious. I mean why would she? she was gorgeous and she knew it.
"Penny for your thoughts."
Pulled out of my own head I turned to face Dantalis.
"I was just thinking I'm not going to get much sleep tonight."
He chuckled.
"Knowing Cam you won't be getting any sleep at all."
His words made me remember the girl at the club.
"What did you say to that girl?"
"What she wanted to hear."
"That doesn't answer my question."
"Doesn't it?"
"Are you deliberately being obtuse?"
He chuckled again but remained silent, I shook my head suddenly feeling uncomfortable around him. I couldn't put my finger on it there was just something about him, well about both of them really. Why us? I mean out of all the girls in that club why did they pick us?
I didn't have much time to dwell on these questions though as our building was coming into view. Dantalis and I followed as Bree and Cam entered the elevator taking us to the third story.
There wasn't much chatter in the elevator mainly because Bree and Cam were kissing the whole time. They didn't stop even when the elevator opened to admit us. Once in our apartment Cam and Bree went straight for her room not even pretending any more that we were coming back for drinks. I sighed while Dantalis did make me uncomfortable he was hot as fuck, might as well make the most of the situation.
"So what will it be? we have rum, buorbon, whisky?"
"Rum's fine."
I left him in the lounge room to grab drinks, as I was mixing the rum and coke however he entered the kitchen behind me.
"Nice place you've got here, been here long?"
I smiled.
"Not long just moved in recently when I enrolled at the uni a few streets away. Bree and I always wanted to live in the city. How about you? Wasn't Kail saying that you were from up north?"
"Yeah I am I don't come down here very often, not my type of scene."
I leaned against the bench.
"And what is your scene?"
"The complete opposite to Kail's."
I frowned at that he had a way of answering questions without answering anything, though something about him drew me in. It was like he was a puzzle that my very being had to solve, his voice pulled me out of my revere.
"Do you mind if we take our drinks to the balcony, I have a feeling it's going to get very loud in here?"
As if on cue a moan could be heard from Bree's room.
"That's probably a good idea."
I lead the way to the balcony closing the door behind me so that all we could hear was the noise of the city below us.
"I love it out here, looking out over the city, it's like I'm flying."
Dantalis stood next to me staring out at the same view of the city, I laughed nervously.
"I probably sound stupid saying that."
"Not at all, where I come from it's as if you really are flying."
"I would ask where that was but we both know you're not going to answer."
He turned to sit down on one of the outdoor chairs we had when it was like a bolt of electricity hit the air in the space between us. The same thing happened at the club we weren't even touching yet I felt it as if we were, it was the most exhilarating feeling I had ever felt.
"Did you feel that?"
He froze, turning to face me.
"Feel what?"
His words might have implied he didn't know what I was talking about but his face said he did.
"You did feel it didn't you?"
"I think you've had too much to drink."
Oh he was so frustrating, how was is that a man I had only just met could make me feel so many feelings in such a short time. Who was he? What was he? I just didn't know what to think or how to act around him. Giving up I answered.
"Maybe I have had a little too much."
He reached out and took my glass off me, our hands touched and instantly I could feel the heat between my thighs boil up. He put the glass down on the table smiling, it was as if he could sense my arousal but that was impossible I must be imagining it.
He stood before me his face bare inch's from mine I couldn't look anywhere but his eyes. I shivered as his hand reached out to touch my side. I stepped closer his hand moved further up my back to my shoulder blade I moaned at the feel of them. How did he know? Only Kail knew that for some reason my shoulder blades were sensitive to a man's touch, it was not your everyday arousal spot he couldn't have known. It was like he was in my head reading my very soul.
He continued to caress my back as he dipped his head to the nape of my neck, whispering quietly.
"I can't wait to see what colour they become."
Confused but very much aroused I whispered shakily back.
"Colour of what?."
He chuckled into my neck.
"You will see."
I pulled away to look into his eyes there was something in them that called to my very soul.
From the moment I set eyes on him there was something drawing me in that I couldn't explain.
"I don't understand."
Dantalis didn't answer only stepped forward closeing the distance between us until there was no space separating our bodies. Wrapping one arm around my waist my heart began to beat wildly in my chest unable to move still staring into his eyes, as he reached up to cup my face with his other hand caressing my cheek.
Our mouths inching closer caught in his spell my breath came heavier. His eyes met mine as his hand on my waist moved towards the hem of my dress. I had already said I hated one night stands but staring into his eyes I knew with him I could make an exception.
His wondering hand found its way to what lay beneath my dress. Already wet and waiting his smile widened at finding my arousal, just as a fire entered his eyes he inched his lips towards mine inches from my lips my phone rang.
That was all it took for the moment to be broken and my mind to return to its senses. I forced him back with all my might, he flew a few steps away from me. I looked at my hands I wasn't that strong was I? Quickly hiding my surprise I looked back at him, better that he thought I knew how strong I was.
"What was that for?"
"Firstly you think because you clearly know how to touch a woman you'll get into my pants well then you've got another thing coming. Secondly, why would I sleep with someone who frustrates me to no end? I've only just met you yet you infuriate me with every word you speak."
Turning I went back inside grabing my phone and left the apartment, on the way down I dialled Kail's number.
"What's happened?"
"Can u come get me please you were right Dantalis is a dick."
"I'll be there in two seconds."
With that he hang up just as Dantalis came running out of the building.
"Reece-"
"Just leave me alone Dantalis."
I couldn't believe it this night had just gone from strange to impossibly surreal I barely knew the guy and already we were out the front having what could only be described as a lovers tif. I started to walk away when he grabbed my arm stopping me.
"Reece please."
Suddenly he was ripped off me by strong arms.
"Get your claws off her!"
Dantalis recovered quickly as Kail stood between us shielding me from Dantalis.
"Face it Danni boy you scared her off."
"Mind your own business Kail."
"Reece is my business."
Kail turned his back on Dantalis.
"Why don't you go back upstairs babe and I'll deal with this."
I nodded and went to go inside however last minute I hid behind the door to the building leaving it ajar just enough to see what was happening.
"So Dantalis I see you haven't changed, I've already cleaned up your handy work once tonight now I have to do it again? Bad form Danni what would your bosses say?"
"I'm not doing this with you Kail she is not yours to take."
I watched as Kail shook his head smiling.
"You have no idea what you're dealing with do you?"
"I know all I need to know."
"Of course ever the faithful Danni, well you'll fail just like you did last time. Go home Danni you should've learnt from last time everything you touch turns to shit."
Dantalis did not move to stop Kail as he began to follow me inside. Just before Dantalis turned to walk away I saw the look in his eyes, one of loneliness and loss.
I didn't even try to hide the fact that I was listening in as Kail re-entered the building.
"Come on babe let's get some sleep."
I smiled.
"Thank you Kail."
"Hey what are friends with benefits for."
I wrapped my arms around him in a big hug, he moved his hand up my back to touch my most sensitive part. However what would usually have me curling my toes in excitement just felt wrong, very wrong with him. My mind drifted to when Kail had touched me there other time's it had felt awesome yes but not like when Dantalis touched me. with him it felt more intimate, more special. When Dantalis had put his hands on me it was as if a fire burned in me that had been screaming all my life to be lit.
Kail felt my hesitation and stopped.
"What's wrong babe?"
I shook my head.
"I guess I'm still a little shaken."
He cupped my face in his hands.
"Let's get you to bed eh?"
I nodded.
"That sounds like an awesome idea."
Upstairs Bree was in the kitchen making coffee while Cam was leaning against the bench beside her.
"Hey guys where have you be-"
Bree started to say but stopped when she realized it was Kail beside me and not Dantalis.
"Oh it's you."
"And hello to you too."
Looking to me Bree demanded.
"What's he doing here? I thought you got rid of him at the club?"
"I called him."
"Where's Dantalis?"
Cam asked trying not to sound to interested.
"He had to leave."
I didn't want to get into too much detail while Kail was there it was likely he would go look for Dantalis if he knew he'd touched me the way he had.
"Maybe you should go after your boyfriend."
Kail stabbed at Cam.
"Go fuck yourself."
Cam stabbed back.
"God Reece put him on a shorter leash would you."
Bree grabbed Cam's arm and dragged him out onto the balcony, turning to Kail I asked.
"Was that really called for?"
"Come on babe I was only joking, besides what kind of a guy hangs out with a dick like Dantalis."
I punched him playfully in the arm, he laughed.
"Your words not mine."
I decided it was better not to say I didn't really think Dantalis was a dick in front of Kail, so I just shook my head.
"Come on I think it's time for bed."
At the word bed I started to yawn, it had been a long night. I let Kail lead me towards my room. As soon as the door closed Kail pulled me into his arms. His hands reached behind me to undo the zipper of my dress. They felt warm against my skin as he did.
He lifted the dress over my head even as I undid his jeans pushing them to the floor. Hoisting me up to gently lay me on the bed as he started to kiss my neck slowly working his way down to my breast. His breath driving me wild with lust.
Going further still he pulled down my underwear exposing the heat between my thighs as he took me in his mouth. I moaned with pleasure, as I became wetter relishing every bit. His tongue worked in circles as my back arched in pleasure.
It was then that I had this strange feeling of being watched I turned my head to face the window but only saw darkness. I figured I must be imagining it distracted I just couldn't shake the feeling.
Kails mouth worked like magic to keep my mind off the sense of it though as I closed the distance ever so slowly into climax. Finally after coming so close so many times it was like torture I went over the edge.
He looked up smiling in satisfaction roughly I pulled him up and mounted him plunging him into my now sensitive heat. Even then with him stretching every part of me all I could think of was Dantalis and the way it felt when he touched me. The rest was a blur as thoughts of Dantalis would not stop plaguing me. Even as I again climaxed at the same moment Kail did I still could not stop thinking about those emerald eyes as they bore into my own.
Afterwards Kail lay next to me asleep while I stared at the ceiling thinking about the man I barely knew and knowing I had made a mistake by calling Kail.
