Thread: Bitter Sweet Rivals (Lady Bloody Ava & Fates.Gamble)

Devon could only smile, watching Gabriella intently as she talked. He couldnt have agreed more, thoughts of his frustrating day vanishing with every passing second he spent with her. It was strange that she had that effect. He hardly knew anything more than her name, but the attraction was palpable, and he hungered to know more about her. So many questions swirled in his mind that it was impossible to pick one out of them. All were swept aside though, as her words hung upon the open air. When she finally asked her question, he gave a light-hearted laugh. Most guys of his stature would be turned off by her hesitation, even Devon had been there, but the fact that the possibility was still lingering only made him burn even hotter for her. The answer was simple, Absolutely, he said confidently, honestly, I think I would regret anything less. At least she was about as far away from the idea of an honest commitment as him, which made it a lot easier to accept what was being propositioned. If he was being honest, he really didnt take her for the kind of woman that he could get enough of from one quick hook up. Everything about her was perfect, hitting a self-same 10 on his own scale. Every moment was a battle between gazing into her stunning eyes, and looking down her succulent body. Her whispered compliments stole what was left of his senses, and his eyes were heavy with lust as he listened. A sly grin crept across his lips as went on. On any other day, she might have inflated his ego to the point of the other board members plotting murder, but right now his thoughts could extend to nothing beyond her. Im just honest, Darlin, he replied, setting his glass down after another healthy drink, And right now youre everything Im looking for. Her next words practically had him throbbing, heightened only by the teasing hesitation that followed. This girl was perhaps even more charming than he was. He couldnt be certain if her hesitation was genuine, or if she was teasing and testing him. All he knew was that the ball was in her court right now, not usually the way he liked it, but this challenge was driving him wild. It would be a disappointment if we didnt, he said, pausing to take another drink before leaning in close to her, I can tell just by looking at you that wed wake the god damn world. He wore a sexy smile as his thoughts drained further down the gutter, Something like that is worth waiting for. If you want to take your time and do it right, Im not going anywhere His words faded off as his eyes drifted down her body, soaking in the lovely vision of her perfect chest and everything beyond, before traveling up. He could see in her face that she was getting just as turned on, and for the first time he felt the ball was coming into his court a little. Though I have to say, he started, and leaned in boldly close, to the point where his lips were a breath away from her ear, You look like youre having a little trouble deciding. His words were a tantalizing whisper, soft and seductive. Its your choice, of course, but maybe this will help you make up your mind. His lips playfully squeezed the tip of her ear-lobe before he ghosted back, and found her sweet, soft lips before she could stop to think what he was planning. It was a light, but very promising kiss, his tongue a soft but experienced intruder if she opened up to him. Kissing was one of Devons best qualities, he knew how to tease with his mouth very well, almost always pulling away with a woman wanting deeper, or more. This one he broke away from shortly, eyes bright and curious to how she would react as he relaxed back into his barstool. Her lips were as delicious as he imagined, it felt to be deprived of oxygen just thinking he could not ravage her here and now. His eyes were deep with desire as he watched her battle with the decision, but he teased her with his own words all the while, By all means, take your time. But I have to warn you, the longer I have to wait the more Im going to want you and the more insatiable Ill be when you finally give in. And believe me you will. e
