She never enjoyed parties. But she wanted to meet him. That's why she found herself stepping out of the taxi and walking up the steps to the grand house.
A doorman nodded at her and let her in. keeping his eye on her the whole time. Leering? Or simply admiring her outfit? She couldn't tell.
Her eyes were fixed ahead towards the the flashing strobe lights illuminating the Georgian mansion house whilst a scene of drug and alcohol fuelled chaos raged ahead. She felt herself being pulled in by the monotonous beat of the music. It was inescapable, this is what he had done to her, made her need him.
Navigating her way through the throng of revellers, lost in a trance to the destruction they were creating, she held her gaze forward intent on finding him.
A girl in front of her turned, her eyes were wide and she laughed through her chemical smile as she leaned forward, kissing her long and slow. Before flitting of, as a bird leaves a branch, into the fray. She tasted of champagne, she could almost feel the fizz in her mouth from their embrace.
She walked forward as the bass from the speakers vibrated the room, pulsing through her skin. Her eyes scanned the faces, they smiled and laughed, their eyes glazed over in ecstasy, but none were his.
Then she caught a glimpse of him. Through the swaying crowd she say him. It was like wind blowing a sea of grass. Through the moving limbs and bodies she saw little snippets of him. His stubbled jawline, his hair, his arms. He was sitting next to a woman, she was engrossed in him.
Lara knew the feeling. She moved round the edge of the mob catching attention in her lunging neckline dress, moving closer to him. A figure leaning against the wall moved across her way. He was dark and handsome, enough to make him jealous. She let him come close, making him feel as if she was interested.
She let him touch her waist as he moved behind her. They moved in rhythm to the music. She pushed her ass back in to him letting him feel her, whilst she danced touching his hands on her waist, putting her hand up and over the back of his head. Looking at Sam, demanding his attention. It didn't take long.
As the figure whispered in her ear and she grinded into him she locked eyes with her real prey. He had to do a double take before he realised who she really was. He watched her dancing, staring at him, whilst another man felt her body from behind. Her dress tantalisingly revealed her curves, he could feel himself almost salivating. Wanting to be the one grinding up behind her right now.
