1920 Words
Prologue “f**k…He’s hot!” Riley found herself muttering out loud as she stared at the gentleman sitting a couple of bar stools away from her in the noisy bar she’d been sitting for over an hour. The guy probably noticed her eyes since she just can’t seem to pull them away from him. Dressed in an ash button-down shirt with a couple of buttons undone and sleeves folded almost to his elbows exposing his veiny and strong muscular arms for the world to gawk but his deep and properly outlined facial structure seemed rather focused on the almost empty tumbler glass he was sipping from. As though the man had heard her comment, slowly turned in her direction with his jaw-dropping sapphire blue eyes that anyone would claim were contacts, maybe there were contacts, Riley thought as she subconsciously concluded that those pair of gorgeous eyes were the bluest eyes she’d come across in her 25years of existence. “Am I finally drunk?” Riley mumbled to herself after the man flashed her a billion-dollar smile that had her heart beating drums in her chest. He’s definitely a model, that’s gotta be it, there’s no other explanation. ‘I haven’t seen a Greek god before but he’s gotta be their incarnation’ Riley thought as the man raised his cup up to her in greeting while she just sat with a dumbfounded expression on her face. Riley only wanted to forget her sorrows, she only wanted to forget her troubles as she stepped into Plaisir, a bar that wasn’t so far from her office which had become her previous working place in the blink of an eye. She enjoyed the half-drunk talks and half-hearted laughter that boom from every table away from the bar stand she was seated at, after all, they all sounded like a proper distraction she so desperately needed at that moment while every other thing in the bar didn’t pass her expectation, from the low music playing in the background to the smell of booze and sweats from the masculine body roaming around her, but she never expected to meet someone so gorgeous while mulling over her recent terminated employment. She gulped and turned her flaming face away trying not to get carried away by the strange man whose mere face was like a magnet drawing her close. “Sorry, can I get another one of this?” Riley shifted her empty cocktail glass to the bartender who for a moment wore a worried look for Riley. After all, she’s had one too many drinks. Well, she needed it, Riley figured the best way to drown her sorrows was after her manager wrongfully terminated her employment just because one of the big shots of her company requested it because she wouldn’t sleep with him. Riley realised the best place to be at after escaping her co-workers' pitiful looks and sympathetic glances as she cleared her desk, was the bar not far from the place. “Okay, give me a minute” The bartender’s teenage voice despite having a fully grown adult body soothed Riley, but then she start to wonder, what would the voice of the stranger sounds like, would it be as rough and strong as he looks or will his voice contradicts his appearance. I’m staring again, Riley thought after her bright hazel eyes met the guy’s blue ones. Riley turned away from him almost immediately knowing she’d been caught. “I think I’m drunk” Riley muttered feeling woozy all of a sudden but her dizziness was seized after he looked up to see the man standing right next to her. “Holy s**t!” She cussed under her breath as he towered her in her seat. I get that I’m sitting down but I’m probably feeling what exactly David felt when facing Goliath, don’t get me wrong, he’s not a giant or anything I’m just awkwardly tiny in front of him, I’m guessing he’s over 6ft, damn he’s tall. Riley thought before the man lowered herself to the closest stool to her. “Hey,” And there goes her fragile heart as the man’s masculine voice rumbles into her ear and seems to have taken that route straight to her heart or maybe down between her legs. All these reactions seem to be hyped, she thought as her fragile heart continue to pound aimlessly in her chest. “What the f**k is going on?” She mumbled while she seems like she was losing all reason to the sound of the man’s voice. Her brain was fuzzy and her body seems to be defying all rules she’d laid out for them but Riley blamed everything on the alcohol hitting her system harder than she could imagine. “I think…I should go” She stuttered as she shoot to her feet afraid she’ll make a mess of herself in front of the devilishly handsome man that was doing things to her with just his voice. “Easy” The man’s voice came again as she tried to stabilise her on her feet since she wouldn’t stop swaying like the drunk ass she was. “If you touch me like that…” Riley opened her mouth staring at those eyes that felt like a vast ocean that would drown her in a second. “I’ll get turned on” She hiccuped while the man stared at her in shock. Then she suddenly laughed. “I can believe you smell good too. How can you be so handsome and still smell so good” Riley slurred taking a long sniff at the man who at first was taken aback by her actions. “I gotta say…you have such cute drunken antics” He whispered in her ear and Riley felt shivers travel down her spine or probably straight to her panties which seems to have been soaked within seconds of the stranger’s proximity. “And now, I’m turned on” She confessed with a chuckle while the guy smiled in response. “I’m honoured” The guy smiled at Riley who found her whole face burning from receiving another smile from him. “Has anyone ever told you…you have such a beautiful smile” The man blinked in surprise and then chuckled. His actions had Riley subconsciously licking her lower lip, while lewdly staring at the man. “Nope, my first time hearing it” The stranger replied while faking a surprised look. “Honestly, your smile should be a national treasure” She pointed and moved even closer to the stranger that seems to be enjoying her honest comments but the moment their skin touched after Riley seems to have closed all the proximity between them, the vibrant smile on the beautiful man disappeared and Riley wondered what she did wrong for the man to keep his smile all of a sudden. “I’ll pay for this woman” He turned to the bartender briefly then continue with Riley “And you’re drunk, I should get you a taxi” The man suddenly suggested flashing his gold card to the bartender who doesn’t look so surprised but Riley…was quite shocked. “Wow, you’re quite Rich” She commented while the guy tried to get her out of the bar and help her to a taxi but Riley clung to him. “Hey” If you continue hanging unto me like that, I’m afraid, I’ll get turned on too” Riley didn’t expect to sober up that quickly but she couldn’t help it, the man’s declaration seems to have snapped her right back to reality. “That’s impossible- “Why not? You’re beautiful…sexy, and maybe one of the most daring women I’ve ever met” Those eyes, Riley thought as the stranger's eyes burrowed deep into her in a way that had her tingling all over. Sexy? Beautiful? She can’t say, being a woman of a small petite figure, height that struggled to peak 5’2, light auburn hair she’d slicked back into a neat ponytail that had turned messy from brushing it back too much and an average nose that supported her small facial structure, and though she had such small stature she was aware of her hour-glass figure, her B-sized boobs that were poorly supported by her bra but she still wondered how those boring features could be considered sexy? No one had ever called her that… “It’s been a while since I’ve felt like this…it’s strange, which is why you need to get as far away from me as possible sugar,” His expression was dangerous, everything he gives off screamed dangerous and while her brain was wailing for her to turn and take to her heels, she was drawn to this stranger, she couldn’t put a finger on it, she wanted the beautiful stranger, all of him or maybe she’s still drunk, Riley couldn’t say. “You should get in the car” The man pointed to the taxi that seems to be waiting for her with its side door open. Here’s her chance, she could leave, this stranger whose eyes were glowing with lust, she could leave it and go straight home she could have that hot shower her body was desperately craving but something in her had her holding him back. “You don’t listen do you?” His expression? Riley thought as she felt like prey about to be devoured after he turned abruptly to face her, the ground seems to be moving rather slowly and her body got even heavier and before she knew it, she had herself pinned against the wall, her mouth rampaged by the stranger’s tongue, he tastes like whisky she thought battling the stranger's tongue as both their hands got busy in getting each other naked, where am I? A question Riley’s brain was posing but was too busy to answer, her hands were all over the stranger she doesn’t even know his name. “My name’s Winter,” the man said ridding her of her jacket before her blouse followed in the blink of an eye, “Were you reading my mind?” Riley found herself asking while the man lowered and moved down to get rid of her pretty black short office skirt she had shopped for two weeks prior. “You mumbled it,” Winter replied as Riley tackled hastily and ferociously with his shirt buttons. “Really? Well, the name’s Riley, doesn’t really matter does it?” Riley knew better than anyone, it’s probably the last time she was ever gonna get laid by such a handsome guy, I might as well make the best of it, she thought as she finally got him off his shirt and gave herself a minute to take in the beautiful image of the Winter’s artistic body. God did take his time on this, she thought as she find herself travelling his muscular body with peach-painted fingers. “Like what you see?” Winter asked before her hand settled on his V-line right on his belt. “Yeah…it’s impressive” She smiled before allowing Winter to claim her mouth again and there, she was, naked before a man she’s never met before but Riley wasn’t ready to reason, she just wanted to forget, everything, even if it’s for a moment, and then she allowed the man to guide her to the bed as he slowly follows, setting herself lose in his embrace, and getting lost in the pleasure he’s got to offer. -----------
