The Billion Dollar Break-Up!

Chapter 9

Ashton

Ashton was growing a bit bored at this shin dig. But it would all be worth the wait once SHE got there. Hopefully she was going to be there. Or this was all going to be a waste of his time. A pretty blond caught his eye. She was well dressed. Had a short little red dress on. Her cleavage was about ready to pop out of the dress at any given moment.

"Hello there" Ashton says to her as he hands her an extra glass of wine.

"Hi handsome" she replies feeding into his ego.

"How do you know Leo?" he makes small talk.

"Leo? We went to fashion school together" she informs him.

"Fashion?" he asks. She nods.

"You know making clothing" she explains.

"I see" he replies as he leans closer to her. She smelled nice, like sugar or vanilla. Her hair was long, hanging a bit covering her pretty blue green eyes.

"I made this dress myself. Do you like it?" she wonders as she shows of her legs witch were long. He swallows some wine down his Adam's apple.

"Yes, it is nice" he tells her. She beams a smile at him.

"Ashton Maxford...we meet again I see" he hears HER say! She was there!

"Hey! Hi there Violet" he greets her hello. He tries to engage her in a friendly hug. She ignores the gesture.

"What are you doing in my crowd these days Mr. Maxford? Twice this week we met up" she mentions.

"Well three times the charm huh?" he jokes. The blond looks curious to what was going on.

"Are you not going to introduce me to your little friend?" asks Violet. Why was she being so nice to him?

"Um, Violet Harris this is...is" he stammers. He did not know the girls' name he had been flirting with, Violet probably knew this already. She smiles as she sips her wine looking amused to be messing with him.

"My name is Bambi" replies the girl as she sticks her hand out to Violet. They shake hands.

"Pleasure, to meet you Bambi. Are you Mr. Maxford's unfortunate date for the evening?" she asks.

"Date? No! I am solo. I like the ladies actually" laughs Bambi making poor Violet's face turn red. Ashton stifles back a laugh from escaping his lips.

"Oh nice. Nothing wrong with...ah that" stammers a shaken up Violet.

"Well if you care to dance with me come find me" Bambi hits on Violet. She touches Violets arm before walking away.

"That was an unexpected turn of events" Ashton bursts out laughing at last. He could no longer hold that in.

"You ASS!" she snaps. She heads to walk away.

"Hot under the collar are we" he stops her from leaving his side.

"Oh shut up!" she grumbles.

"Dance with me" he demands as a nice slow song comes on over-head.

"Never" she laughs.

"You have that I want to look in your eyes" he teases. "Unless you of course want to dance with Bambi. She is looking lonely over there" he jokes.

"Fine you fool" she grumbles. They set their drinks down. She grabs his hand and leads him out on the dance floor. He notices she smelled like vanilla and violets again. Her sent makes him hunger to be closer to her. She keeps him at bay during the dance. She holds his hands. Her palms were getting sweaty. She plastered an uncomfortable smile across her face. He grins her way. He touches her back with the palm of his hand. He pulls her closer to his body making her let out a surprised gasp escape from her pretty lips.

"You are a good dancer Mr. Maxford" she says at last. Trying to cut the s****l tension that was starting to form between their bodies.

"Thank you" he says softly as he moves her body in time to the beat.

"How are you doing these days?" she says trying to make small talk between them. He touches her lips with one of his index fingers.

"Shh, let the music do all the talking shall we?" he questions her. She nods yes. He gazes into her eyes. No word had to be spoken. Her beautiful face was still hard to read for him, he wanted to get to know this ice princess a little better. He felt the heat from her body sink into his own. They did make a stunning pair together.

He held her hand. He linked their fingers together as he held her back with the other hand. His palm began to feel sweaty as he felt the heat of her body radiate from her. Sparks began to pop off of her. He smiled feeling pleased he could tell she was attracted to him.

He felt his groin in his pants start to tighten up as she rubbed up nicely along his body. Normally by the time the song had to end he would have had the girl making out with him, some place in a closet or a bed. But this was not any girl. Well woman. He looks down at those plump pink lips of hers again, is were just aching for a taste of them. He was not used to being patient.

"Mmm" he whispers seductively to her. Her eyes look up at him like a doe who was about to get shot by a hunter. She knew he wanted her. She wanted him. He could feel it. Excitement pumped in his veins. He was calling the shots tonight. She was going to be his by the end of this night. He turned her back dipping her to the time of the beat, he pulls her back up against his chest.

"You are a very good dancer" she whispers to him as he pulls back a little after he nearly plants a little kiss on her lips.

"Shhh" he whispers to her again. He rocks with her body. Grinding along hers. She was breathing heavily. Becoming breathless at his actions. He had waited long enough. He was going to kiss those lips before the song was over with. He leans in for the kill, his lips fall to hers.

They dance their own dance now, teasing her, tasting her, moving along those sweet pink lips of hers, he could feel in each kiss she was hiding secrets' from him. She wanted him just as badly as he was wanting her. His tongue opens her lips for him. He takes his tongue to her own, he sucks on her tongue, and her lips hungrily keep up with his. He feels her legs tremble as he kisses her faster. Deeper. Harder. He holds her up as her body weakens for him.

"Mmm" she murmurs' in between kisses. The slow song had ended. A fast one had started up now, but that did not phase them at all, they were to into one another as the dance kept moving faster.

"Happy Birthday Dear Leo! Happy Birthday, to you!" a song suddenly breaks out. The lights had been lowered. They were bringing a cake out for Leo. Violet breaks the spell between them to focus on her friend. She looked shaken up by those kisses. Just as he was. He regained his composure. What was she thinking now? They cheer and clapped for Leo as he blew out all his candles.

"And many more!" someone in the crowd cheered for Leo.

"Violet wait!" Ashton begs her not to go as she was going to run from him. He grabs her by her arm.

"Thanks for...for the dance" she stammers.

"Don't go. You know you don't want to. We will BOTH regret it if you walk away now" he demands to her. She looks surprised at his bold move to seek her out.

"Alright what do you want? I know what you want, my father's company. It is not for grabs Mr. Maxford. And frankly neither am I" she states coolly. Damn the girl knew what was just going on with him. She called him out on it!

"Violet wait!" he begs as she disappears into the crowd.
