Faded Love [Mature Content]

C .10-Sneaky

“What?” She rasped out, taking in a deep breath to level her breathing.

“The name’s Dimitri Duncan.” He lifted his weight from her body. “Nice to meet you, Mr. Duncan, I’m Juliette Stryker.” They both chuckled at their backward behavior.

“I would like to see you again.”

“You realize this was a onetime thing, right?” She motioned between them, getting up from the bed. “So, you’re gonna just use me and toss me aside? I feel so cheap!” He exclaimed with a hand over his heart. Dimitri sat up on one arm, eyeing the beauty in front of him as she searches for her clothing.

“And you’re telling me it wasn’t the same thing you were planning on doing?” She glowered at the naked man covered in the white linen. “Have you seen my underwear?”

Juliette can blame the alcohol she had consumed for her actions, though it wouldn’t change the fact that she slept with a complete stranger. Handsome and a good lay, yet still a stranger.

Retrieving her lace knickers, she pulled them on, along with her shorts.

“So that’s it? I can’t get your number or ask to see you again. Maybe even take you out on a proper date?” He got up from the bed and drew his pants from the floor, stepping into it, one leg at a time. The man cared little about his concubines, but there was something about the woman he just shared his bed with that sparked his interest.

Maybe it was her fire or her freewill to life. He couldn’t quite put a finger on the matter. Still captured by her beauty. However, he didn’t like that she was dismissing the idea of seeing him again.

“I need to go.” Juliette stood close to the door as she looked at the man. She had no intentions on seeing him again. It was a one off and that’s that. At least that’s what she tried to convince herself.

“Can I at least call you a ride?” He picked his phone before she replied. “It was just s*x, Dimitri, don’t get the wrong idea.” She walked out of the bedroom, and he followed her down the small hallway and into the sitting area.

For the first time since she got to his place, she was seeing the layout of his home. Or what she imagined was his home. It was beautiful. Dark for her taste, but expected for a man. Decorated with black suede furniture, a fireplace with a painting of a gorgeous woman above.

The dining table, big enough to seat six persons, sat between the kitchen; which was also elegantly furnished with dark wood and the sitting room.

“I’ll get a ride.” She muttered as she put on one shoe, hopping around seeking the other foot, that found its way under a table at the entrance of the room; during their stripping of clothes.

“Looking for this?” Dimitri swung the shoe on his finger. “Hand it over Dimitri.” She stepped to him.

“Not until you agree to go out with me or give me your number, so I can see you again.” He bargained. Dimitri took a seat on one of the stools, placing the shoe on the counter.

Juliette didn’t think about it. There was no way she was going to agree to his bribe. The last thing she wanted was to get attached to a man, especially this man. With his chiseled jawline, his wash board abs. Not even the desire of him buried deep within her walls.

He pleasured her, no lie, but it didn’t mean there can be more between them.

“Dimitri, I don’t have time for this, just give me the shoe and I’ll be out of here.” She pleaded.

But he liked it. He liked the sound of her begging, though he wished it was for him to be inside her again. “Okay coffee, that’s it.”

Juliette sighed with a heavy heart. “That’s how it starts. First it’s coffee, then I’m back in your bed and the next thing I know, I’m developing feelings for you.” She folded her arms across her chest. She was getting furious of his childish behavior. “I’ll be the one with the broken heart. So, how about we skip to the end where we just don’t let it get to the beginning?”

She took another step towards him.

Dimitri didn’t see her intentions. Yet, Juliette was rubbing his crotch and nuzzling her nose in his neck. He was lost in a trance in the way her hands groped his c**k. The way she lightly brushed her soft pink lips against his. The tenderness of her slender fingers running up her arms.

Juliette had realized how he closed his eyes at her touch. At that moment, she tugged the shoe from his grasp and stepped away. “Sneaky!” He applauded her with a breathtaking smile. “If you weren’t so adamant about leaving, I’d take you back to the bedroom and punish you for that.”

Matter of fact, he stood from the stool and walked over to her, pushing her against the cold wall of his home. He had a sense of purpose and that was to have his way with her once more. With both hands firmly constrained above her head trapping her, he grinded his hips at her front.

Juliette inhaled deeply and stared into his eyes. Mesmerized by the pools of brown and the hints of green. He was about to crash his lips on hers when she connected her knee to his groin. Dimitri fell to the floor, clutching his jewels with both hands.

Juliette bent over his crouched form and whispered, “I’m not so easily distracted.” She bent and grasped his cheeks with both hands, capturing his mouth in a warning kiss. She tugged on his bottom lip and bit down hard.

Dimitri groaned into her mouth. Her temptation left him with a hard on, but he loved it. Practically hated women who threw themselves at him. However, the chase of a beautiful woman always piqued his interest because in the end, no matter how far he chased her, he knew nothing would stop him from getting his way.

The woman intrigued him and that don’t happen too often.

“Well, Dimitri, thanks for um-- the s*x. Don’t seek me out or contact me and I mean it.” With pursed lips, Juliette regained her stance. She blew him a kiss and turned on her heel and left.

The vibration of her small black clutch made her heart skip a beat. After the way she left Dimitri, she feared it would’ve been him texting or calling her. Luckily, when she pulled out the phone, it was a text from Rebecca.

Her thumping heart settled in her chest, and she released a breath of relief.

Hey babe, way u @? [Rebecca]

On my way home [Juliette]

U slept with a man, didn't u? [Rebecca]

[Juliette]

At least I hope it was good!!! [Rebecca]

[Juliette]

It was….wasn’t it???? [ Rebecca]

“I’ll text u when I get home.” [Juliette]

When Rebecca didn’t reply, she pushed her cell back into her clutch and hit the button with the L. For the lobby. The doors closed behind her, and she slouched against the metal box for support. Dread rose in her mind of the day if or when she will ever see the man again. She felt bad about what she did, yet at the time she didn’t know what else to do to get away from him.

Juliette wiped her face on the shoulder of her blouse.

Eventually, the doors opened into the lobby of the luxurious hotel, and she walked out with her head held high. She didn’t care the fact that people were staring at her outfit. All she wanted was to get back to her home and grab a nice warm shower and forget about the night she had. The wonderful night with the handsome and muscular defined Dimitri Duncan.

“What the hell have I done?”
