General POV
As the dining went on, Adonis noticed a few eyes still darting his way, namely Veronica and Michael. Veronica's reason was obvious, but as for Michael, he didn't even know why, he just couldn't look away. Daniel did look Adonis's way too, but it was more out of surprise that a man can be this perfect, charming, and exude so much power while still being so young.
He didn't find anything wrong with his staring. He believed it was because he had been dealing with a lot of powerful men ever since he took over, and this was the first time he was seeing a specimen that had all the charms in one person; the more he looked, the more he believed he needed to make friends with such a man no matter what. Daniel had always held a very high standard for people who could come close to him. He was one of those who believed the saying, "If it's not business, then we have nothing to talk about."
"What are you studying, Adonis?" Daniel found himself asking. Adonis just glanced at him and looked away, not bothering with him at all, which shot a wave of embarrassment across his face, but the rejection made him want to talk to this male all the more.
"So, Ian, are you planning on expanding? I have been thinking, how about the two of us join hands to build a massive industry that will shock the country?" Jake suddenly spoke up. "I have had a similar idea as well, but for it to reach that level, it must be profitable too, a product that can affect or even influence the economy to a certain extent. So far, I have not been able to come up with anything with such potential," Ian replied.
Adonis rose from his seat and headed towards the kitchen to mix his favorite drink, as enjoying different flavors mixed together had always been his thing. He couldn't even remember the last time he drank normal wine straight from its bottle without mixing it.
It hadn't been a minute since he left the dining room when he heard footsteps heading his way, and upon turning around, it was the pretty jock Michael, Mia's boyfriend. He ignored him at first and went on with his thing, but the male took a bottle of wine from the fridge, popped it open, and started downing it right there. "Hey, f**k off back to the dining room," Adonis's deep voice calmly stated, trying his best to ignore his irritation. He did not have any problem with being near people; he just didn't like the guy. For the obvious reason, he was dating Mia, his Mia. How could he tolerate him?
"Hey kid, mind how you talk to me! I'm way older than you!" Michael shot back with a glare, and that response was like a knife cutting Adonis's thin patience in two, making him immediately head the doctor's way. "Did you just talk to me? In that way?" His voice rumbled out, but the hidden anger could be felt from a distance away. It was the first time someone had talked to him like that, older or not.
He hadn't even reached Michael, yet Michael felt towered over, which was a strange feeling as he was not only older, but also a six-foot-tall guy himself. By the time Adonis reached him, he was already feeling suffocated, but he still stood his ground only at that moment, something wafted into his nose, making his mouth feel so sweet and watery. That was when he realized what was happening, as his eyes shot to Adonis's armpit, though he looked away immediately. He wanted to leave there as soon as possible, but he felt caged even when no one was touching him. The manly scent wafted into his nose, followed by that unique scent he had found out a year ago that he loved so much. His eyes glanced at the armpit once again, his knuckles tightening around the bottle of wine he was holding.
'Leave, leave, leave,' his mind kept screaming, warning him to just disappear from there, to just run off, but for some reason, he couldn't move his feet. It then hit him that he had taken in the smell so much that he really didn't want to leave anymore. All he wanted at that moment was to bury his nose in there and inhale to his lungs' content. His eyes, unlike earlier, started to dart towards the irresistible kid's armpit more and more. "Fuck..." he said, barely audible, but Adonis's eyes had already flickered as he caught what was happening. His anger was slowly turning to amusement.
With his expertise in things like this, he didn't need to be told twice what was happening. "So you are one, too? And here I was thinking you would be a difficult one to separate from Mia. I never thought..." He chuckled and stepped closer to the pretty male, who shook his head frantically. "No, no, no... just stay back... I am sorry, okay?... I take back my words earlier..." Michael spoke without breathing. He wanted to step back, but his back was already pressed against the counter, leaving him nowhere to go.
As Adonis got closer, the scent got so intense that he didn't even realize his mouth was already parted while his eyes couldn't look away from Adonis's armpit anymore. "You want it, right? You want to bury your nose in it? Your whole body is already pushing for you to just give in." Adonis's voice was like Michael's deepest desire coming to life and leading him into eternal damnation. "No, no, no, no..." Michael kept muttering, but he wasn't moving. His eyes were steady on the younger male's pits as if they were the only things that mattered in the world.
Adonis raised his muscled arm. "Come here. Come take a dip." The moment his arm was raised, Michael physically lost it and couldn't resist bending over closer to the armpit, his lips parted, his eyes fuzzy. Without waiting, Adonis's other hand took hold of the back of the older man's neck and easily led him in.
Michael's nose got buried deep into his armpit. A shuddering moan gasped out from the doctor while he totally opened himself up and gave in to his cravings...
