Wavering Mollisher

A Passionate Encounter

“Ya are doin' wonderfully, dear.” Angie compliments Della as they get ready for the evening. “I believe Daniel is quite fond of you. Joe certainly has no qualms in spilling his society’s secrets.”

Della is deciding what jewelry to wear this evening. She had gotten quite accustomed to her new role. Angie had proven to be quite an excellent mentor. Thanks to Angie, Della was learning much about the thoughts of men and the hard task ladies of the evenings had to endure. 

“Thank you. I rather not sleep with him.” Della chooses a pair of gold earrings.

“I have a plan.” Angie spritzes perfume on her wrists.

“Angie, I have been meaning to ask, why are you helping me?” Della moves behind to help adjust the woman’s dress.

“Ya can say I owe Lucas Clarke.” Angie hands Della a delicate necklace. “A couple of years ago, I was a girl on the street. Lucas saw me one evenin', helpe' me clean up. He offere' a job off the streets, but I thou'gt I could money here. It started out as wanting to help Lucas, then I grew quite fond of ya.” Angie smiles at Della.

“In just a few days?” Della doubtfully asks.

“Yes, ya quite the spunk. Ya are welcome to stay  as long as need'.” Angie squeezes Della’s wrist. “Let us go; we mustn’t keep the gentleman waitin'.” Angie moves Della’s sleeves off her shoulders. “Perfect.”

“Della! There is my favorite girl!” Daniel’s voice booms through the hall. Della plasters her best flirty smile.

“Daniel! It is such a pleasure to see you.” Della holds out her hand, letting the man kiss her knuckles.

“Come, sit.” Daniel pats the spot next to him.

“I thank you, sir, but I much prefer you as a chair.” Della giggles.

“I can’t deny a woman’s request! Come, my dear!” Daniel turns his legs towards her. Della squeals as his arms reach out and drag her on him. “What a delightful sound!” Daniel chuckles.

“Where is your friend?” Della meets his hazel eyes.

“He shall be here soon. Where is yours?” Daniel drags his knuckles up Della’s arm.

“She is getting us drinks. A girl can’t be too careful about what she accepts from gentlemen.” Della laughs.

“You are wise, my dear. We men can be quite animalistic at times.” Daniel jokes by releasing a mock growl. The sound he releases is met by an authentic laugh from Della. 

“Even you, Daniel?” Her hands play with the shirt buttons near his chest.

“Especially me, my dear.” His voice gets deeper as her fingertips scrape against his chest.

“Why, hello, ya two! Della, I brought yer drink!” Angie sits a glass concoction in front of Della.

“Why if it isn’t Angie!” Joe’s hands creep around Angie’s torso. His mouth finds her throat, and the two spend a couple of moments in their embrace. 

“Joe! I must keep my friend company.” Angie drags the older man down on the booth with her.

“Alright, I can perform with an audience.” Joe laughs as he pulls Angie in his lap.

 Angie pulls his lips on hers as his hands cup her ass. 

 Ignoring them, Della turns towards Daniel. “So, Daniel, you look tense! Rough day?” Her lips ghost his jawbone.  He releases a content sigh.

“You have no idea. Joe is dragging me into community affairs, my fiancee is a right priss. She is obsessed with framing an ex-member of our community. It's probably her ex-boyfriend that left."

“A woman scorned; I see.” Della plants a small kiss on Daniel's neck 

“She is a jealous one.” Daniel chuckles. His hands move to her curls, combing through them. He pulls on them gently, bringing her mouth to his. Della follows his lips, wrapping her arms around his shoulders.

Della enjoys the kiss. She feels no attraction or affection for the man, but she can't help but like the attention of a man's lips. Daniel’s arms wrap around her waist as her hands come to rest on his chest. Suddenly, Della hears a whoosh, and a rough hand pulls her off Daniel’s lab.

“The bloody hell!” Daniel screams. At the back of the booth, Angie and Joe lift their gazes at the commotion. “Oi, I am paying her for the evening!”

“Well, she must have overbooked because I am supposed to have her company. “ A familiar deep voice fills Della’s ears. Della shivers. She knows that voice anywhere.

Angie jumps to her feet. “Why Della, you little tease! Did you get your nights mixed up? Forgive her, Daniel, she was so excited to see you she forgot about her new client.” Angie whirls and raises her eyebrows at Della.

Della follows Angie's lead. “I’m so sorry, Daniel. Can I make it up to you another night? No charge.”

Daniel melts at Della's seductive smile. “For you, I will let this slide. Don’t do it again.” He winks as Della giggles.

“I suppose I’ll see you at home?” Angie asks, giving Della little time to answer before Lucas is dragging her from the group. The two move through the room until Lucas leads her into a private room. As soon as he closes the door, he throws Della against the wall, caging her in between his arms.

“Della, you want to tell me what you’re doing here?” Lucas demands.
