Finding Essence

Chapter 4

"Oh my God Essy you look so beautiful tonight!" I rolled my eyes at the only friend I had made in this city and balanced myself after her bone-crushing hug. She was a little thing too but man was she stoute, guess it makes sense with the ridgit work-out she does every day with Hooper. "Can you please stop calling me Essy? Seriously I'm strange enough as it is without people thinking I'm related to the lockness monster." That was all it took for her to go into a fit of giggles with me following her shortly after. "OK ok but you have to get out and dance with me! Hooper isn't off for another hour and he won't let me go dancing by myself." I glanced at him and he just shrugged his shoulders. I loved how relaxed this club was with Hooper being Katrina's boyfriend she got to dance and drink as much as she wanted because his brother was the owner. I had never met him but from what Katrina told me he was hot. He was 50 and she said he didn't look a day over 30 so I was let's say intrigued. Built and light-skinned like his brother; they were Italian so that was a little shocker since my mother's best friend was Italian and she was only 5'0. But I wouldn't get the chance to meet him tonight or ever so I just let myself go and have fun. Honestly here lately I think ive been having an issue I don't know if it's because im now in my 30s or what but older men have a heavy s*x appeal that I would love to try out and my toys were not doing me justice. It was weird coming from me to be like this, I'm quiet and low key but the last few days that has not been me at all. "Come on lets go dance,." Katrina said after the 5th shot of tequila and limes. I was already feeling woozy but they put this beat on and it was to die for. Katrina and I got to dance and swaying on each other letting the world fall apart so we could just have fun. After a bit I was feeling a little off, I was sweaty, hot, and buzzed but when I looked around I swore I felt eyes on my and presence. I could feel the energy coming towards me and it felt amazing. I wanted more of it but couldn't find the source. Closing my eyes I just bathed in the energy and let it flow to me. That when I felt a pair of hands come around my waist, opening my eyes I saw that Hooper had taken Katrina into his arms and was giving whoever it was a smirk over my shoulder; he looked down at me winked, and walked off with Katrina. Twirliing around I saw the hottest man I've ever seen in my life, he had to be over six feet since I was looking up at him. Dark hair with a little gray at the sideburns that benefit him rather than diminish his looks, Dark blue eyes, and square features. This man was trouble and he was holding me while looking into my soul, Like I was an open book for him to browse his sexy rough fingers through. I had to catch myself from letting out a moan just thinking about what his fingers could do. He smirked as if he knew exactly what I was thinking. "You must be Essence, Katrina talks about you all the time, but I must say she didn't say how stunning you were." He knelt down close to my ear and said, "Nor did she say how much of a great dancer you are. Im Elliot." He all but purred in my ear, and with that I could feel a hotness pooling in my new underwear and my n*****s tighten. Geez if that's all it took for this man to get me hot and bothered what the hell could he do in bed? "Hello it's nice to meet you." I even sounded raspy to myself and the smirk he gave me told me he heard it too. "Wana get a drink?" I just nodded and then stopped him, "Hold up I have to use the ladies' room." Smiling he nodded and walked me over to it, "I'll be over by the bar." He winked at me and walked away. on wobbly legs, I went into the bathroom to do my business. "See girl didn't I tell you he was to die for!" Katrina popped into the bathroom, "That's an understatement, Wait a second! Do you mean that Hooper's brother the one that owns this place? your boss?" She giggled at my face which i was sure looked like I had been hit by a bus. "Yes he's the oldest of the brothers is single, has no kids, and has his own business. are you sure you want to move away from Nevada now?" Laughing and shaking my head yes, "Yep but kinda wish I had met him first." Katrina winked at me, "Well I love ya girl call me when you get to Oklahoma and settled we are heading out," she gave me a huge hug kissed my cheek, and went to walk out before stopping, turning around to say, "And Please f**k the hell out of that man! Blow his mind have fun and don't do anything I wouldn't do!" I threw my head back and laughed at that, "Girl that isn't much!" "I know" was all she said as she walked out. Oh, I was gonna miss her she was one of a kind.
