YOLANDA'S POV
Torrent of emotions flood through me but one remains prominent. HAPPINESS.
Life is sure treating me like I'm its favorite child and dayummmm, It feels mindblowing.
I woke up feeling happy, no thought of Chen or the fears he left me with.
It's 7pm with him Sitting beside me, his fingers interlocked with mine. He told me how his twin sister was the one who suggested he take me on dates instead.
His other plan was to search out my hotel room, bang on my door daily begging me to date him. I laughed so hard at that thought, it sounds improbable but I know it's something he is capable of, he is that confident.
I take a look at him & a thought strike me: His confidence is seeping into me. His stare makes me feel beautiful & powerful compared to Chen's s****l demands & frustration.
I rest my head on his shoulder
"Why are you interested in me?"
I ask but all I want is to see Myself through his mind.
I'm still blown away by his performance yesterday. That first date tops every date I have ever had.
The way he rowed the boat with so much finesse. The transition from boat ride to yacht dinner. His attention on me each time I speak. I have never seen a man with so much authority and confidence look at me like my existence birthed his, I felt adorned.
"Standing by the beach, you looked both scary & harmless. Then you jumping to save me showed your selflessness, most of all when you spoke" I see his lips curve up in smile
"You were fierce, weak but still fierce. I thought you harbour drama that I want"
Now it's my turn to scrunch up my face. I lift my head to face him
"What does that even mean?" He rubs my finger
"You're captivating Yolanda. Pretty, soft & fierce"
Energy received. I know he reserved some words from his eyes sizing me up. My phone says 8pm.
Today is our second date, which involved him teaching me how to play volleyball. I was so bad at it I'm surprised by his patience
"Your sisters sound like fun. Are you identical twins?"
"A bit" I quirk my brows up
"If I shave, we look alike but with my beards, not really"
"Understandable"
He didn't stop gazing at me neither did he give up playing with my fingers locked with his. I know every breathe I take after tonight, will remind me someone worships me.
"Let's take a walk" He takes my hand and we roam around the beach
"Tell me about your ex. Each time you spoke about him he sounded like piece of work"
Now it's my turn to gulp.
"Chen is a broad topic"
"We have time"
"I'll summarize. We met in China after my nursing school. Helped me get my first teaching job in china, asked me out & we started dating. A week into it I found out I don't like how obsessed he is, his s****l bugging & the subtle ways he grips me hard" His gaze finds me and I don't take a stop.
" A week later I broke up with him but he stalked my phone, house. Any man that asked me out or I'm close to, He sent me a part of their body."
He rubs his hand down my spine to soothe me
" Even my private tutoring friend got his face battered by him. The stalking continued for months.Reported him then I flew back to Nigeria in hopes he doesn't find me here"
"I'm sorry you had to go through that. Is that why you don't want to date me?"
"Short answer, Yes. He's a fighter & computer skilled. He's ruthless."
"Date me. I'm not afraid. Let's handle him" His voice resolute but with no hint of surprise. I on the other hand,
I'm happy about his willingness to help, but
"I've had enough men's blood on my hands, I want no more"
"Yolanda.." He drawls out my name but I drag him to the party I saw earlier
"Let's join them" I drag him along, not waiting for his reply
"I don't do party"
"Watch me, I'll do it for both of us"
I lead us there, imagining what it would feel like pressed against him while we dance. The thought crossed me at the yacht but I was afraid it will be too forward considering I got rejected earlier.
'He wanted more. A proper date' My lady moral drills to me but what I want is s*x from him, not dating. Chen won't allow me have that
I heard there are rules for first dates.
I intend to follow it considering my carefree self attracted a crazy and psychopathic lover. I will follow every rules if it won't make me repeat that costly mistake. But with Ovie, I want to be who I was. Carefree
We arrive at the party & I finally have my moment of dance with him. He didn't say anything or hesitate, he just followed me like obedient puppy.
The party is in full blast.
Feeling free, I go to the bar for few whiskey & champagne, to assist my feet on the dance floor.
I do most of the drinking while he gawks at me as I twist my body.
I don't know how to dance like a pro but his gaze & confidence in me, makes me bold & pretty. He bites his lips anytime I raise up my gown
I dance facing him, while he leans against a table. His full height, towering over everyone.
His gaze follows my moves and his jaw clenches anytime I shake my ass or t**s.
The front shows little cleavage & the side reveal my curves before flowing to a short length.
I find his restraint lovely. Like I set him on fire & left him dangling for water to douse off.
There are many ladies on skimpy outfits but his eyes remains on me.
Suddenly I feel a body press to my back, fear grip me as thought of it being Chen surface.. Before I could move or show my panic. I hear him growl out
"She's mine. Leave!" The command in his voice reverberates through the pulsing music, chasing man away.
My body relaxes. God. So it can be like this? I don't have to be panicked always? Chen isn't here, I can relax.
I smile, taking a step closer to him, I lift up the hem of my dress, my gaze locked on him as he tongues his bottom lip
I make another move that requires me turning 360,on facing him again, I see a lady walk up to him, he's still staring at me, ignoring the goddess walking up to him with seductive eyes. She's well endowned & my head heats up as I watch her hand try to touch his bulged out arm.
In one step, I hold back her hand
"He's mine. Leave" I reiterate his earlier words & authority, earning me a blinding smile from him as the lady scoffs off.
But why am I jealous
"Possessive of me Miss Yolanda?"
Possessive? This is part of what Chen did that made me run
'NO YOLANDA! Chen yells at you & blame you for the men's action' I bite down to inhale my Lady moral words & focus on now
"Never, just trying to feed you your own medicine. Is it bitter?"
His palm goes to my waist & pull me into him. He leans in & I wait for him to kiss me, but he whispers into my ear instead
"It tastes very sweet baby. I like you possessive of me."
'I think you'll need oxygen' Yes lady moral, please bring loads of it.
He has eased back onto the desk but my heart hammers on, his voice lingering in my head,it is the most erotic voice ever.
Legs crosed & arms folded together on his chest. He's glorious. He stands so commanding I couldn't help but let my gaze roam his body before zooming on his below.
I look back up at him, crazy bastard. I gulp & look away after seeing his smug grin.
He stops a waiter who returns with a vape later
"Why are you not drinking?"
"You're doing that for the both of us Yolz. I will become a beast if something happens to you and I can't help because I'm inebriated"
Wow
My hand find his neck. I whisper to his ear
"Okay big daddy" His jaw clench, and I hear his teeth grind. I lit up, but as expected, he fights his reaction to me,but his body already betrayed him. I can feel his hardness.
I have had way too many drinks, which I let anchor my next move. I turn my ass to his groin, and dance against him. This feels dangerous,a territory I've abandoned for a while
I feel heat coat around my wetness just as he sucks a breathe in.
"p*****s are stronger than you trying to hide your reaction to me. You're so hard"
He really is. Each grind gets him harder
"Y.O.L.AN.DA" My name comes out strained & clipped. Like a seal of control
"What? You can't f**k me against this table for everyone to see?" I tell him, moving my palm to fist his length. He feels so good
"Voyeurism was never my thing, but if it's yours, I'll have to kill over 50 people afterwards"
"Scary much" I grind faster while rubbing his length. His hiss & controlled breath a hard drug than the vape on his lips.
My n*****s harden & cunt throbs
"f**k me" I whisper then I feel his precum. I circle it
"s**t! Stop" His palm holds my wrist & he ease me out of him. I face him, exhaling my frustration & horniness out loud
"Try this again when you're not drunk, and you won't be able to Walk for two weeks"
Tired of the rejections, I stop dancing. He leads us to sit on a bench but I walk off
"Come back here Yolanda"
"No can do" I yell back to match his earlier growl.
He can go f**k himself, I'm not Ugly.
Close to a year of celibacy, Self love can only do so much..
If not for Chen mutilating men that date me, I'll have a partner to satisfy my needs.
Lost in my thoughts, I didn't hear him approach till I feel his arms around my waist
"You'll hate me For this tomorrow"
My back pressed to him, I reply
"I'm a big girl & Donald Trump is still US president.... See, I'm not drunk"
He turns me to face him, and I jump on him, wrapping my feet around his torso.
In a beat, Heat and Electricity soreads through the walls of my mouth and body...
My lady moral dance in triumph as his palm rest on my ass, pulling me closer to him while his mouth explores mine.
I get lost in total bliss, Till I notice someone's presence... Like we're being stared at.
