Rule number 1: Know your prey.
I eye him as he enters the bar. He looks good tonight; like any other night. Tight white jeans, black leather belt, two chains hanging down his thigh, pink top with the face of a roaring tiger, a vest in some sort of golden and red brocade, several necklaces decorating his chest, snakebite, eyes heavily lined with thick, black eyeliner and hot pink eyelids, shiny black hair to down past his shoulders, with streaks of green. Beautiful. He is so sure of himself that the arrogance he exudes is almost palpable. My favourite kind. They are so much fun to break.
He's chatting with his friends as they head for the bar, passing me on the way. He knows I want him, I haven't tried to hide it and he winks at me as he walks past. Tease. I nod and smirk in reply, no words necessary.
I have wanted him from the first moment I saw him and I have wasted no time beating around the bush. He didn't fall for it though, just laughed at me and told me to forget it. Forget it? No way. I am a hunter and I
always
fell my prey, sooner or later.
I have been working on him for almost five months now and I know that the time has finally come; he's gonna give in very soon, all the sign are there. Oh the thrill, it will be sweeter than any of my previous victories; I can feel it. While I have been waiting for this day to come around I have seen him here almost every week and I have watched as he has seduced several of the other guests. There is no doubt that he considers himself a hunter as well, and a pretty successful one at that, but he doesn't know what a real hunter is like. He will learn though, he will learn.
Rule number 2: Always attack when they are alone.
I give him one hour before I make my first move of the evening. I see him get up from the table he's sharing with his friends and go towards the men's room. I move to follow him.
He sees me enter but says nothing, just continues with his business. I wait until the only other man has left before I speak.
"So.... You're not even gonna say hi tonight?" I cross my arms and lean against the door; effectively making sure no one else enters before I am done. He smirks at me.
"Hi"
"Good boy, so well behaved. Tell me, what are your plans for the evening?"
"Having fun with my friends, as always" he smiles as he zips his jeans and goes to wash his hands. "And sadly, that doesn't involve you," he adds with a cheeky smile in the mirror.
"Uh baby, such harsh words!" I mock him. "You have no idea what fun I could show you!"
He laughs and waves his hands in front of him to dry them. "I'm sure it would be interesting alright but my answer is still no. Now, are you gonna let me out?"
He's standing right in front of me, mimicking my pose and the side of his mouth just slightly curled into a smile, staring me right in the eye. He thinks he's in control, he's feeling powerful because I'm the one pursuing him like a lovesick puppy but he doesn't know the first thing. He doesn't know that I read him like an open book, that I know exactly when he is gonna break and surrender. He will learn though, he will learn.
"Not yet." I let my eyes wander over his body. "You look very good tonight kid, the green a new thing?"
"Thank you, and yes."
"You're welcome." I lock his eyes in a stare. He doesn't avert his gaze and he doesn't wipe off that semi-smile; he thinks it some game we're playing. It is, I suppose, but he doesn't know that he's the prize. And that I will win no matter what.
Rule number 3: Run them tired.
"So are you having fun? With your friends?"
"Very much so."
"What kind of fun are you having?
"The relaxed kind."
"I see," I nod, "not really my kind of fun."
"How sad."
"Yes, isn't it?"
"So what's your kind of fun then?"
"My kind of fun?" I pretend to think about the question. "It's the... sweaty kind... the shivering kind... the lustful kind..." I lick my lips, imagining for the hmpth time having that kind of fun with him.
"Seems like you won't be having much fun tonight then."
"Don't be so sure of it, kid."
"Whatever you say," he giggles and shakes his head.
"Can I buy you a drink?"
"You know you have asked me that question every time we have been here for the last five months?"
"Yes."
"And have I at any point said yes?"
"No."
"So what makes you think my answer is gonna be any different tonight?"
"Two reasons: You are flattered that I have not yet relented, plus you are secretly wondering what will happen WHEN you allow me to buy you a drink and your curiosity commands you to find out soon."
He laughs me right in my face, cocky bastard. "You think you've got me all figured out, huh?"
"Are you telling me I'm wrong?" I challenge him.
"I'm telling you that your little assumptions are somewhat far-fetched." He smugly replies.
"Ah, but see, you are not dismissing them completely then." My turn to be smug.
He chuckles and rolls his eyes. "Man, you don't give up, do you?"
"Never."
"Well, maybe one day I will change my mind. Now, will you let me out?"
"Of course" I answer politely and step aside. One day, he says? No kid, TOday.
As he slips out, he pauses for a second with a "enjoy the night" and a wink before the door shuts closed behind him. I snort; it won't be long until he loses some of that self-assuredness.
Rule number 4: Let them think there is no real danger.
Back outside I take a seat by the bar so that I can see him clearly and if he wishes he will be able to look at me as well. And he does. I feel him looking at me several times but for the longest time I ignore it; I let him take in the sight of me. My burgundy leather pants are worn to fit perfectly and together with my black top and heavy jewellery I know that I look good.
For a while I let him think that he can get away with looking at me that blatantly, let him feel safe that I don't notice his eyes. Then I turn my head and catch him by surprise. At least now he has the decency to look away but I don't care; I keep staring at him and it doesn't take long until he looks up to meet my eyes again. Of course he does, he can't help it. He's getting weaker by the second.
Without taking my eyes from his, I motion for the bartender to bring him a drink of whatever it is he's drinking.
When the waitress walks over and puts the poisonous red liquid in front of him he looks confused at first but then he tilts his head back and laughs before once again looking at me and shaking his head. He eyes the glass for a moment before raising it to a toast and I raise my glass in response. He drinks. Hook, line, sinker. I've got him.
I am almost trembling; I am so close to finally catching him, I can practically taste him on my lips. I take a deep breath and compose myself. Patience, I mustn't blow it now... in my head I go over what is about to happen and the mere thought is enough to excite me. Feeling him give in, his body move with mine, touching his warm skin, making him shiver from lust...
I see him go to the dance floor along with a group of his friends. This time I don't follow him but never for a second do I take my eyes from him; I know exactly where he is all the time and who he is dancing with.
First it's the cute blonde -- he's pretty but he is trying too hard to be like the others and that turns me off. The two of them together do look quite enticing though, I must admit. Maybe I'll go for him when he's grown up a little. Or if I just feel lazily horny one night.
Then it's the tall blonde. He is quite interesting too but he's taller than me and that disqualifies him automatically.
After him my beautiful boy dances with the Goth kid -- I have never been into Goths, they require too much attention for my liking and even though he sure knows how to move, and move my prey with him, I don't find him interesting.
I catch him looking at me as he's dancing; he wants me to see him as he's swaying to the music but I nonchalantly look away the times he tries too hard.
After a few songs I see him move towards the edge of the dance floor, alone. It's time.
I make sure he doesn't see me as I move closer until I am standing right behind him and breathe into his ear: "Now that you have let me buy you a drink I bet you are wondering what will happen next, right?"
