The dark-haired girl couldn't help smiling when she saw that familiar look light up his intense blue eyes - the look that always made her smile - the unspoken thought: 'You're beautiful...you're mine'. It was a look that stirred her to her soul, as it did without fail, each single time she undressed for him, and took her seat at his ornate, highly-polished table. She warmed to feel the intensity of his male gaze - the man's obvious pleasure in having her sitting with such marvelous poise, half-naked, at his table.
By now she moved without thinking, instinctively taking up the pose he had specified: shoulders back, chin up, lithe body held perfectly erect. Her painted lips tightened into a single, unsmiling line, chin high, almost insolent. Dark eyes that looked out upon the world with superior disdain, capturing once more the regal bearing that had so struck him to find in one so young when he first spied her sitting alone, sampling the coffee at that little cafe on the rue d'Angles, while an overly solicitous waiter hovered nearby.
Now, the quiet thrill rippled through her, caused her to twitch, squirming in growing excitement. Straightening imperceptibly, Nathalie drew back her bare shoulders, deepening the curve of her arched spine, preening as if to offer the man her proudly naked breasts. She might have been some ancient Egyptian goddess - small, taut breasts brazenly exposed, left on open display; sitting at a rich man's elegantly set table with such a stately demeanor, aloof, with that air of supreme unconcern, that she alone, of all the women he knew, managed to carry off.
