Crimson Seduction

Episode 9: Frustrations

Two weeks

It’s been two weeks since that evening spent with Dario and her body still remembered how he had made her feel, how his touch felt against her skin, how his lips felt on hers, the way their bodies molded together so easily and so perfectly. But it wasn’t surprising that she hadn’t heard from him nor did she attempt to make contact with him, however that didn’t mean they didn’t see each other. The way he smirked every time he saw her had her wanting to wipe it right off his face. It was like he was teasing her because of what they did because he knew her body still craved him. Once an a*shole, always an a*shole.

It was when he showed up at her fashion show with a blonde by his side as she clung to his arm that she felt her annoyance. How dare he. He’s not yours, nor will he ever be she reminded herself. However it didn’t stop their eyes from meeting or seeing the way his eyes swirled or even the way he smirked like he was hoping it antagonized her. He wanted her jealous and frustrated. Aviana shot him a glare before growling under her breath before turning on her heel to head back into the back area but more towards the dressing rooms. It was then she felt a pair of muscular arms grab her and pull her into a room just to pin her up against the wall.

“Jealous Kitten?” Dario drawled in his thick Italian accent which had goosebumps forming onto her skin. Why did he have to make her feel this way? However her eyes rolled before narrowing her eyes at him “Shouldn’t you be playing with your blonde bimbo instead of harassing me?” She snapped which had him chuckle while pulling her body into him having her wrists pinned above her head “Now now kitten, is that any way to speak to your elder?” He taunted which had her roll her eyes before tugging on her wrists despite his grip on them “Bite me.” She growled which only had him smirk before dipping his head to her neck to have his fangs graze her skin. It had her breath hitch while her body instantly pressed into his “You’d enjoy that wouldn’t you kitten.” He teased, pressing his lips to her neck.

The knock on the door had them pull apart while Dario growled lowly under his breath for being disturbed only for her to roll her eyes “Aviana? Are you in there?” She could hear her assistant Caitlin through the door “If you are, your father is looking for you. He also doesn’t appear happy.” She added before there was silence. Of course Dario had her wrists pinned still while amusement crossed his features “Looks like daddy is looking for his little girl. Until next time kitten.” He winked before pressing his lips briefly against hers then he was gone.

Aviana rolled her eyes before taking a small calming breath while cursing that man for everything. How dare he. She tugged the door open quickly with a growl before leaving the room only to find her father not too far away. Of course she was used to his particular moodiness that surrounded him lately yet there seemed to be something more to his features. Especially since his vampires metallic blue eyes were partially out.

“Daddy.” She greeted sweetly before giving him a smile as she walked closer. Her brow arched as her arms folded just under her bre*sts “To what do I owe this visit?” She questioned. When he stepped closer she bit her lip.

“Do I need a reason to visit my baby girl? After all I am your father and should be allowed to come see you whenever. Besides Ziri wanted to come see your show.” Saxon responded before quirking his brow as her looked over her features “Unless you have something to hide.” There it was the start of the inquisition. Unfortunately for her she was usually an open book for him, but then again he was a mind reader. However she got used to blocking certain things out so he wouldn’t find out.

“No of course not daddy, I’m just surprised to see you. Though I figured you’d be spending time with Ziri alone. But I’m glad to see you both, hopefully she’s enjoying the show.” She responded with a smile before rolling her eyes at her father “Nothing to hide at all daddy.” She answered.

However by the look on her fathers features he didn’t believe her. Saxon moved a piece of hair from her face before looking down at her “Are you sure about that Aviana? Why do you smell like Dario then?” He questioned with an arched brow.

Aviana blinked before looking up at him only to make a face of annoyance “I’m positive daddy. As for why I smell like Dario, we ran into each other and I almost fell over which he grabbed me before I could. That’s all.” She responded then shook her head before looking over at the entrance “Ziri is waiting for you daddy, thank you for your concern however it isn’t necessary. I appreciate you for coming to my show.” She smiled. Her father nodded then kissed her head before saying his goodbyes. It was nice to see her father happy again after her mother.

However she knew one thing and that was she hated lying to him not to mention she couldn’t stay away from Dario forever.
