The Primus Daughter

CHAPTER TWO

"I am sure it will be the end of you soon," she replied, pulling her hand away from his grip.

"Well, if it is by your hands I am sure it is a befitting end." He returned with a straight face, keeping his eyes on her face as he brought his now empty hand to his side.

Selene's eyes nearly popped out of her sockets. What the f**k was this? Her mind yelled. Was this flirting? "Yeah, whatever." She replied and made to leave again. She was never good with mushy stuff, she didn't know how to handle them.

"You were dancing before I came, don't leave the dance floor on my account."

"Well, you ruined it." She turned to look at him as she spoke and she thought he looked sad.

She didn't wait for a reply, rather she made her way through the cluster of people and headed back to the bar. She hoped Vance or whatever he called himself would take the hint and not follow her even though a part of her hoped he might.

The bartender had a look of recognition on his face when she returned, she guessed she must have left a mark. "The usual," she muttered. He was probably new here, she didn't think he looked familiar.

"Are you a regular?" She heard his voice again behind her ear.

"f**k!" She almost screamed. She couldn't comprehend how she couldn't sense him until he was ridiculously close and then when she did, he was all she could sense. Her thoughts must really be clouding her senses.

"Scared you again," he muttered, taking the seat right next to her. "This is fun, you know." He giggled.

Her lips curled at the sound but not out of disgust, more like she would never have guessed he giggled. "Would you stop following me?" What was his deal? She wondered, she hated the fact that he had made her jumpy, twice in a freaking roll.

"Following?" He frowned. "Don't flatter yourself, you are not the only one who enjoys a little drink every now and then." He smirked long and hard as if daring her to counter him.

She rolled her eyes, fully determined to ignore him even though her body wanted her to do otherwise. "Thank you," she muttered to the bartender as he brought her drink, she immediately picked the glass and took a sip.

Her plan was to forget all her sorrows, Vance or whatever the heck he called himself was not going to ruin that for her. She took another sip and swallowed but the drink did not go down as smoothly as the rest and that was because she could literally feel Vance's eyes on her.

It felt like his eyes had hands and they were slowly taking off her clothes. She didn't find it alarming, which was alarming, and the fact that she wanted him to really take them off annoyed her. She turned towards him in a jerk. "What?" She yelled.

"What what?" He asked with a frown, acting oblivious. "Thanks," he said to the bartender as he handed him his drink and Vance drank the whole glass in a gulp, he immediately requested another.

She shook her head and asked for another drink too. This was childish and she wasn't about to play this weird game with a stranger. "What is your name?" He suddenly asked, interrupting her thoughts.

She glanced in his direction and was about to give a witty reply when two tiny girls who didn't look a day over twenty-two appeared at Vance's side giggling like teenagers. Well, it didn't take long for that to happen.

She sighed and picked up her refilled glass. She wasn't surprised, he looked like a movie star of course he would stand out. She glanced towards their direction and quickly averted her eyes, the last thing she wanted to be caught doing was staring. It didn't bother her, she told herself.

Sure, he was handsome with at least half a foot on her and she liked to think she was pretty tall but it didn't stop him from being a d**k. Besides, she liked to stay away from the handsome ones. The kind with black hair and gray eyes, it was almost comical.

It was like he just stepped out of a typical vampire movie and to top it off the doofus was dressed in black. She rolled her eyes. Why was she always unlucky? Today wasn't going so well, not that she had expected better, considering how it started. She shook the thoughts away, she was here to forget all that.

However, she couldn't deny the fact that she wanted him. She sighed, she couldn't remember the last time she was ever aware of another male presence and it annoyed her considering this was someone she just met.

She downed the rest of the drink and a crazy thought popped into her head. She didn't want to leave, there was nothing to go home to but it looked like she had no choice. However, she wanted to try something out.

Selene rose from her chair slowly and walked towards Vance while staring at him. He noticed her approach and immediately turned in her direction, moving his whole body to face her.

Selene didn't miss a beat, she walked right between his spread legs much to the shock of the teenage girls and with a bright smile on her face, she leaned forward towards his face until her face was barely inches from his own.

She watched in amazement as his pupils dilated and his lips parted. She held that for about a second before smirking as she got a nose full of the scent of his arousal. She smirked, telling him that she could smell his scent, and then she pulled away completely standing to her full height.

She felt better, she was glad to know she had an equal amount of effect on him, maybe even more. Her smirk changed to a full grin and while still staring at him, she took a step back in an attempt to walk away but Vance held her hand and before she could react, he pulled her downwards with just enough force to make their lips touch.

The instant their lips touched, Vance covered hers with his, crushing them. Selene was stunned at first but her lips took control of her and before she could think about it, she was already kissing him.

Selene felt her insides turned to jelly as Vance kissed her. He pushed his tongue into the recess of her mouth and an almost inaudible sound escaped from her lips. Vance smiled against her lips and Selene felt the spell break and she pulled her head away.

The maniac couldn't even hide his knowing smile but her only consolation was, he wanted to kiss her just as much. She immediately noticed the teenage girls were no longer there. She suspected they took the hint and left.

"Come home with me," he whispered and Selene noticed he was still holding her hand.

"Now, why would I do that?" She asked, rolling her eyes at him. He shouldn't dare get cocky, it was just a kiss. It didn't mean she wanted to take her pants off for him.

"Because you want to," he said, tugging on her hand.

Ugh! She hated that it was obvious. "What makes you think so?" She asked and he stared at her with an expression that said Really? "But I don't need to follow you home for that." She blurted, finally admitting.

He frowned, squinting his eyes a little. "You think I would want to take you in one of the bathroom stalls?"

"You seem eager," she replied but couldn't help but admit to herself that she did want to follow him. Maybe the alcohol was working or she was just trying to forget about earlier when her father broke the horrible news to her but there was no doubt that she rather followed this random stranger than go home where she would be stuck with nothing but her thoughts.

Maybe s*x with a random stranger was what she needed to feel better even though she wouldn't mind more but she wasn't the mate kind of girl. Didn't believe in that s**t. Her parents had it and see where it got them.

"Yeah but that doesn't mean I can't wait. So, would you come with me?" He asked slowly getting to his feet without breaking contact with her.

She stared intensely at him, feeling tension at the fact that he was just a foot away. She tried to read his expression but she couldn't sense anything off from him. She could easily blame that on the fact that she was pretty excited around her lower region and would prefer he had a face full of her, at least that would shut him up.

She pulled her hand out of his grip and started to walk away. Vance's face fell as he watched her leave. She stopped suddenly and turned to face him. "Well, are you not coming?" She asked. He was by her side in seconds.
