"What?!" Charis gasped stepping away from Sebastian but he only gave her a puzzled look.
"Sit down and I'll fix you, fix what is wrong with your thinking?"Sebastian repeated and Charis blinked at him, she could swear she heard a kiss, was she imagining that? His lips on hers in an erotic and passionate dance, his hands on her chest sending signals of passion from her most sensitive peaks to the most sensitive part of her body, his tongue stroking hers as he introduced her to a new and pleasurable heaven, her head pulled back by his rough hand in her hair as she left out a guttural moan that-
"Miss Sweeney?"
"Hmm?" Charis blinked, slowly taking her seat as red began to spread all over her face, thank goodness she was facing away from him. She opened her laptop and it displayed the window that had her stuck.
But her gratitude was short-lived, because soon he leaned forward, engulfing her in his body, his head on hers, his hand took hers and guided it to the computer. A moan left Charis' mouth as she shifted in her seat but she covered it quickly with a cough and tried to move away but he held her in place.
"Ahh, I see what has you in a bind," Sebastian said and Charis swallowed. He had her in a bind. Was he allowed to be this close to her? It wasn't at all a professional distance.
"You just need to" his hand stretched forward and Charis felt his breath on her neck, 'I would love it if you kissed me there' shaking her head vigorously, shocked by even her thoughts, tears came to her eyes. What the hell was this situation, she was already feeling damp!
How did she manage to escape this man and fall right back into his trap again, just like that!
**********************
ONE MONTH AGO.
Charis had never felt such a pressing urge to jump someone before, yes she was horny but this was normal. She was always horny when she ovulated and though every woman felt more strongly to copulate during this period she always felt that it was more intense for her. Was it because she never gave in? Perhaps the urge just built up over the years and now she felt like she was like a kettle pot that was boiling over with desire. And not just the random dirty thoughts that normally filled her mind but this time she wanted somebody. It was she was ready to just yank off her top and let him have his way with her naked peaks when he touched her. Jesus! Her crude thoughts shocked even her. She needed to get away from this man before she did something she would regret, she already had enough stuff that made her feel bad when she prayed she did not need this as well.
As Sebastian moved closer to her on the couch where she was currently seated with her eyes anywhere but him she took an equal but opposite move. Make sure to keep the distance between them decent. "Relax I'm not going to eat you" Sebastian laughed at her stiff straight back and the way she placed her hands on her knees and squeezed them.
'I wish you would' the thought popped into her head before she could control it and she found herself vigorously shaking off the thought. Dear Lord, what is this temptation? Silently praying Charis prayed desperately for self-control. 'Jesus you know how hard I've tried, okay I know I don't do the most each month, watching and reading all those dirty stories but you know I would never do anything physically. I mean I don't even masturbate, don't you think I am being overestimated right now? I mean this is not the first good-looking guy I've seen but why is he the first to make me feel like this?'
"What do you do?" Charis asked to break the intense silence.
Sebastian shrugged, "I'm involved in a lot of things I guess."
"Like what? Tech, investments? Real estate?"
"Umm… I guess you can say investments."
"Ahh… so do you do crypto and forex?"
Sebastian laughed, "well I do have some coins but who doesn't?" Nodding Charis looked away again causing her silky straight hair to fall over her shoulders.
She almost flinched when she felt his fingers feather-light touch as he pushed the hair back over her shoulder and tucked it securely behind her ear. "I want to see your face." He explained when she gave him a questioning look. Making sure his fingers made contact with her skin he savoured the touch as long as he could until it got unbearable for her and she pulled away.
"Why do you keep avoiding my touches? You flinch when I touch you." He couldn't help but ask, this was completely new for him.
Watching her soft lips open slightly he sighed at her reluctance, thinking about it for a bit she turned to face him again. "I don't like skin contact, it makes me uncomfortable," She lied.
But she wasn't fooling him, "but you didn't seem to mind when your friend held you earlier, I even noticed her playing with the hair by your ears."
laughing nervously Charis avoided his eyes, "really? I guess I must be uncomfortable since you are only a stranger."
Grabbing his chest he feigned hurt, "come now Charis, we aren't strangers anymore I mean does a stranger know that your name is biblical? That it means grace, and kindness and life?"
Covering her face with her hands in embarrassment she squealed "please can you forget I said that!"
"I will on one condition," he said in her ear and Charis almost jumped out of her skin by how close he sounded, turning to face him she gasped at the proximity. She could swear her nose almost touched his, instinctively she leaned backwards, placing both hands on either side of her body to pull her body away from him. Sebastian was right there with her, placing his own hands beside hers he leaned forward to maintain the proximity.
"Go out on a date with me" he whispered, his breath caressing her lips and cheek. Charis felt wet, heat pooled down at her belly and she was sure she was letting all that out. Pushing hard against his hard chest she got off the sit-in in a jiffy. Surprised by her panicked outburst Sebastian blinked at her as he looked up at her red face.
"Ba-bathroom!" She exclaimed dashing out of the room, watching her retreating figure Sebastian could help the smirk, this was new… she was the first woman to avoid him like this. And as much as it sounded cringy she intrigued him, like a starved beast he only wanted her.
