She didn't go directly to her house.
She kept wandering around the city, with her feast on the car stereo, that would be able to crash an iron, Her heart pounding against her ribs like a party drum.
She drove pass different occasions that night, street lights blurred her vision, darkness elope her, and still, all she could see was him.
The way his fingers brushed through hers, his smile, the stories he told.
She thought to her self,
“he was supposed to be the monster”
“Why the hell does he feel..real ”
Dominic POV
At his office, Dominic stood by his window, collar undone, A glass of wine in his hand remained untouched.
He called the name, SELENE, as if giving a warning, asking a question or a prayer point.
She had this confident identity,look very strong, timid, and intimidating aura.
But tonight...he saw something different, he looked through the cracks, there was pain behind those beautiful, charming eyes of hers, Fire for revenge, something darker, something more personal.
Dominic thinking
What are you hiding ,beautiful stranger ? and why does my body want to know, even if it means killing me.
NEXT DAY
At Dominic Estate, he organized a small party .
He invited her, Surprisedly to her, she came .
Low-key party, exclusive, not like the last one they did, just few trusted business associates, and her ,She wore white this time, very clean, spotless, looking like Angel of vengeance .
Dominic at the sight of her went Lost,
“He thought to himself if dying for you is what it takes then you're worth it ”.
He barely took his eyes off her all through the time being .
Then there came Enzo, Dominic's oldest friend and his right hand man, he stared at selene for a little bit of time .
Enzo with a low voice whisper into Dominic's ear, Where did you say she's from ?
Dominic with a tensed jaw replied,
“Does it matter” ?
“It does if she's playing you” Enzo said.
Dominic's silence said enough.
Even as the warning echoes deeply in his mind, he still moved forward to her like a lost sheep anyway, as if there's a force more stronger than him that's driving him, Stronger than survival.
PRIVATE ROOM
The party began to fade, music were toned low, Dominic and Selene sneak into a quieter room, warm, distance from the noise coming from the party.
They stood too close, like two drunk people, having a mutual understanding, That's it, Too close.
Dominic
I could have anyone in this city, but my thoughts are lost in you, I keep drowning back to you.
She looked up, her breath slow,
“That's Dangerous ” .
He leaned forward
“I don't care”
Her lips parted, in a form of warning, want, or maybe something else, even she don't know.
He grabbed her by the waist, grab her jaw, their lips almost kissed each other .
Her wolf disagreed in her chest “NO”
Selene moved backward, barely .
You are playing a game you know nothing about, “Dominic”
He came closer.
“Then teach me”.
She walked out of the room without altering another word.
He didn't hold her back, he let her leave.
But the damage was already caused, and the line was crossed.
Neither of them would come back the same way.
SELENE POV
I came here on a mission, which is to “Kill Him” not to desire him, crave for his touch, nor feel comfortable in his presence, he isn't supposed to feel at home, she thought deeply.
And, why does every lie i tell him, feels like am telling the truth.
