Author's note:
Well, I'm back. It's been a while and I'm very rusty; I haven't written in a long time, and the few pieces I started here and there I didn't like, but here's a little something that I hope everyone likes.
I suck at proofreading because once I finish a chapter, I just want to post it, so excuse the typos and errors. Also, I appreciate and welcome all feedback as I realize how rusty I've gotten and can use any insight readers are willing to offer.
Always, thank you for reading!
*****
I can veritably feel him when he enters my space. A literal tingling heat rushes through my veins, and I imagine it must be what a vampire would feel naked out at sunrise. Tortured but full of wonder, the glow burning every sane thought turning the pain to pleasure as the vampire surrenders to its brilliant executioner.
"Shahrazad!" his voice rang as if to confirm my presentiment "Sorry you've waited long; I had to go to FedEx and got stuck in traffic on 59."
Was he my executioner?
I wondered watching him look me up and down, a smile widening on his lips and reaching his eyes. The tingling heat was rising in temperature. He started digging in his blazer pockets for his keys and I said "The concierge remembers my name." because I didn't know what else to say.
He paused too look at me again, his smile returning in full force "He'd be crazy not to."
"It's a difficult name."
"I don't think so. Shahrazad." He rumbled dropping his suitcase on the ground and taking a step that killed the space between us, "
Shahrazad
," he said again rolling his
r
pronouncedly "I like it when you wear those eastern colors; the green looks great with the gold jewelry, like my own Arabian Nights princess."
He was so close I could feel his breath on my face and smell a hint of mint in his breath like he chewed on a couple pieces of Altoids right before getting in the building. So close that I could see his dark lashes touching when he blinked accentuating the blue in his irises, light in the middle and framed by deep blue circles. Even if he weren't my executioner, I had definitely surrendered myself to him. He grabbed me by the hips and leaned even closer, his lips almost touching mine and, keeping his eyes gazing into mine he hummed "
Arabian Nights, like Arabian days, more often than not are hotter than hot, in a lot of good ways,"
"Adam," I breathed perplexed by my need for him, but he kept singing and maneuvering my hips with his hands in a dance until I closed my eyes and swallowed.
That's when he kissed me.
He had it right then; an eruption of need that took over me. I wanted to claw his face as his mouth moved expertly against mine the way I've been fantasizing about all day. Firm lips spelling seduction against mine. It made me so angry how good it felt to taste his lips again, how good his cheek felt against my hand, and how greedy I had gotten for him. Then just like that, he pulled back licking his lips as though he can taste me on them, making me want to slap him soundly and kiss him again.
"Adam," I winced, and he cupped my chin with his hand staring at my lips for a lengthy couple of seconds before merely gliding his thumb on them, "You taste delicious." He commented, "I need to get you inside."
He lowered his head to kiss me again but I interrupted, "It's not green; it's sage." I muttered "...my dress is."
"Ah
sage
," he chuckled unlocking the apartment door "spicy and...even more exotic," he canted his head to the side ushering me in.
I don't know what it was, but I couldn't think straight, I couldn't even do my funny shtick around him most of the time, which disarmed me. I had forgotten how to be sexy, but he brought it back when he came into my life, and it scared me. The alluring woman in me who took over to rage wars and win them, I had forgotten her, forgotten that I
was
her, and being that woman again had powers that I'd unlearned against my will. He revived that inside me again, all of it; everything, and having had it extracted from me so pitilessly for years made the return of it so overwhelming. So overwhelming I was drunk with it, I put a sway in my hips knowing full well my dress hugged my ass that he loved so much, then looked over my shoulder at him just to feed off of the hunger I saw in his eyes when they watched me.
He closed the door then cursed and opened it getting his briefcase that was still on the ground.
He peeled off his jacket then pulled his shirt from his trousers and started to unbutton it "I'm so glad you decided to come see me instead of going to-"
I had worn a matching duster with my dress, and I slid it off my shoulder dropping it in a pool around my heels before crossing my arms and giving him a one-cocked-eyebrow perusal.
"Oh, what did I do?" he seemed like he was fighting back a grin, "Whatever it is, can I treat you to dinner and make up for it?" he made a show of grabbing his crotch in invitation.
Now I'm not a girl that skirts around subjects of importance like, well,
dinner -wink wink-
and I'd gotten too impatient for talk and preliminaries, I dropped to my knees in front of him and attacked his belt and zipper.
"Whoa baby," he breathed threading his right hand's fingers into my hair while his left still grasped on to the second to last shirt button he'd opened, "you don't have to-- let me take you...bedroom..." he stammered in a struggle of indecisiveness as his thick cock that was already thickening started growing under my touch, "your knees...baby...the floor...last time we-"
I couldn't look at him, I had to get to his penis, and his double tongue fancy belt buckle was a pain to release that I almost whimpered opening it. He kept his hand in my hair pulling a little to make me look up and listen to him try to be a gentleman, but I got the zipper down and his boxers were an easy peel-down. His fat cock bounced up and hit me on the chin and the cheek, so hard it pointed up and I had to grasp and drag it lower to my face. I still couldn't look at him, that was the thing about how handsome he was and how I didn't want to lose my intrepidity by facing him and acknowledging his male beauty. I was still getting back to myself, and I didn't trust my daring not to slip.
