As Zen spoke he glanced down at Lithe's chest, he was sure of it.
Then the warmth in those searing eyes lingered on Lithe's neck.
Even though they were in a private alcove, it was still in full view of the bar.
A waiter could come at any moment to take their order.
Lithe was inexperienced in picking up a guy at the bar and it weighed heavily on his mind.
What was even worse was that Lithe's body seemed to be responding to the unusual attention.
Feeling lightheaded though he hadn't had much to drink yet.
Lithe bit his lips and shifted his purse to hide his arousal.
"Do you have a mate, Lithe?"
Lithe's jaw dropped, how did Zen know that he had Lycanthrope heritage?
Had they met before?
This was not a question a regular human would ask a stranger off the bat.
Only Lycans were this direct.
The way Zen phrased the sensitive question had Lithe sitting up straight in his seat.
Zen's voice was hypnotic while his eyes stared intently at Lithe's face as he awaited his response.
This made Lithe even more self conscious as his cheeks warmed.
For Lithe the fact that he had been labeled a recessive omega from birth had little to no impact on his life.
He had never had a heat and Lithe lived his life like a normal human.
Up to this point he had almost forgotten he was of mixed blood.
"No. I don't. I'm not exactly in the market for one right now."
"I see. So what exactly are we doing here?"
"I'm turning twenty one soon and I want to lose it before my next birthday."
That wasn't a lie, if he wanted to sound believable Lithe had to sprinkle a little truth here and there if he had any hopes of snagging this alpha.
Saying those words out loud felt shocking and humiliating.
Lithe was so used to being straight laced and orthodox that he never found the time to really sit down and contemplate his sexuality.
In the space of a few minutes talking to Zen, the alpha had already managed to turn the omega's world upside down.
"Well that dress fits you like a second skin. You are bound to get lucky tonight," laughed Zen provocatively.
The sound of laughter was unexpected but certainly not unwelcome.
Did the alpha think he was repressed?
That certainly wasn't the case, a workaholic Lithe simply didn't have the time to date.
Lithe simply hadn't felt a connection to any man that crossed his path since leaving his hometown.
Not until today, that is, this was nothing to be embarrassed about.
Simply put, Lithe wanted what his parents had, he wanted to settle down with someone he could love.
Lips sealed, Lithe kept his mouth shut none of this was the alpha's business.
Still it didn't help that Zen must have noticed how Lithe was reacting.
As his skin was flushed, even Lithe's cheeks got hotter as he ignored the urge to explain himself to the alpha.
Zen reached for a flask of brandy that was still on the table.
Then silently offered Lithe some again but the little omega politely refused like before.
He poured the golden liquor into a clear glass which he put his lips on and drank thirstily from.
His expression was thoughtful as he considered Lithe's proposal.
The longer they lingered here the less time he would have to seduce the omega.
Pausing to swirl the liquor his rich dark eyes focused on Lithe's luscious pink lips as he drank more of the liquor.
Had he not heard what Lithe said, why was he not making a move?
Zen's nonchalance was frustrating Lithe and spoke to the difference of worldly experience between them.
Lithe's anger boiled over as he gripped the arms on the chair.
He was this close to walking off and leaving the arrogant alpha behind.
"I can smell that you're impatient, let me just finish this before we go."
Finally they were getting somewhere, he could see that there was no uncertainty in Zen's eyes.
His trust would be his downfall since he was leaving the bar with a stranger at his own risk.
Any thoughts of feeling guilty were erased when Zen said, "has anyone told you how beautiful you look tonight?"
Lithe blushed prettily in response but on the inside he was thinking how corny.
The sooner he got Zen out of the POSH BAR the better.
"Thank you," whispered Lithe tenderly.
Confident in his charms, Lithe moved, close enough that Zen could feel his warm breath next to his face.
"Let's take this party to my place, I'll feel more comfortable getting drunk with you there."
Excitement swelled deep within Lithe, there was a painful throb to feel Zen's body wrapped around him.
Lithe wanted him now.
"That's fine with me," replied Zen.
Since he was not from Allerdyce Continent, he didn't have a residence in this location.
He wouldn't have felt comfortable taking his one night stand to Morgan's place either.
Zen was actually thinking of taking Lithe to a boutique hotel but Lithe blew his mind by being so forward.
He leaned over to seal the deal with a kiss.
Lithe responded eagerly, pressing his mouth against Zen's.
This kissing felt different from anything he ever experienced before as the wetness of Zen's tongue wrapped around his own.
Opening his mouth to allow Zen's probing tongue to push past all barriers and fill Lithe with hot passion and urgent need.
The taste of the brandy overwhelmed Lithe's senses.
"The waitress is watching," interrupted Zen.
He had signaled to the waitress to collect tonight's payment before they left
"Good evening, pretty lady. Want to join us?"
The waitress laughed while she placed Zen's card on the machine.
She handed the card back to him after it was approved while thanking him for his patronage at the POSH BAR.
The whole time Lithe wished he could crawl under the table.
When had he landed on Zen's lap?
It was like Lithe lost all sense of reality the moment they swapped spit.
"Are you ready?"
"Yes," answered Lithe shyly.
Lithe got up first and Zen followed suit but not a moment after he stole Lithe's breath for yet another kiss.
Somehow they managed to make it outside, while still kissing and Zen fanned down a taxi.
Lithe hastily rattled off the address to the Maximillian's residence while Zen pounced on him once more.
In the taxi Zen hauled Lithe onto his lap again.
This time around the black latex dress was hiked up.
The shiny dress clinging to his small, rounded ass that Zen's hands kneaded.
Lithe needed to cool Zen down for fear the alpha would ruin his plans before it came to fruition.
