Thread: Of Land & Sea { Penitency & Enigma_x }

Grayson hummed his words in response to her calling him an important person, Mmm, I guess you could say that. He was almost distant and apprehensive to even get close to disclose what he did for a living, or why he had so many awards hung up on the walls around them. Hell, even the bookshelf lining the far wall had additional trophies and placards for his achievements, which were used as book ends due to their abundant amount. Considering she didn't know what a dress what, Grayson enjoyed the anonymity of just being some guy with a lot of money to spend. She wasn't after him because he was Grayson Knight. Luna was still with him because she was dependent upon his generosity, and rather enjoyed his company. The dominant seated beside her loved their chemistry at the moment, and opted not to ruin anything by going into detail of his career. Remaining silent about finding his life boring, but laughing under his breath when she pointed toward him in a mocking gesture, Grayson instead directed her attention unto the tablet's screen as the duo examined their options. Well, the options that the billionaire placed before her. Lifting the table in front of his face, so it was more apparent to her, the brute then turned his eyes toward Luna and playfully commented, Hey, my little stowaway... focus! There was a certain comedy between the two as his sculpted arms tensed against the sleeves that were hugging to them in snug fashion before the tablet was dropped into his lap. Ah, the second one... which one was... that... His words were distant as he began to slide his finger through the options until landing upon the one she confirmed to be it. Okay hey, didn't I ..!? His words were cut short as he turned his head to look at her again upon feeling his rock hard body follow the ripple of the mattress. The smirk she displayed was met with a lick of his lips before a developing smile took hold of him. But... She could see he did not want to kick her out from sleeping in his room. Luna was already getting smart with the power she found herself wielding. Next time, I am going to show you the guest room has much less comfortable mattresses. Not as good as this one. There was some brief and low pitched laughter that escaped from under his breath before tossing aside the tablet across the bed casually. But yes, they all do have beds. They'd called bedrooms for that reason. Did your home not have one? Grayson couldn't believe he was detailing all of this to her. He would turn his head over toward his shoulder and watch her body stretch out across the comfortable surface of the mattress. He couldn't help but swallow hard with the view he was given, and it almost made Grayson think she was doing it on purpose despite sounding so innocent to the fact. She was given the view of his broad and defined back as he stood up from the edge of the bed now. The man reached up and clasped his hands together in a triangle before arching his back forwards. His sore and muscular back mashed to the fabrics of his shirt, and the lined definition between his shoulder blades nearly drew itself against the fabrics. Both of his appendages dropped to his side afterwards as the man lazily turned while standing at the foot of the bed to look down upon her laying on her side. Just seeing her hourglass body displayed in such a way had his heart pounding. He would continue to lock eyes with her as he pulled out his cell phone from his pocket, It's harder than you might think. I hate waking up... I need coffee or something to get me going. Holding the phone before his chest, his eyes lowered as his thumb dusted over the keys. He was sending the link of the dress to his assistant in town so that the girl could fetch it for Luna. Yeah... The man commented when she asked for a question, but his eyes were still on the phone. Her next comment had him laughing for a moment before his eyes lifted toward her with amusement filling his irises. Your chest? Hmm, well... Biting his bottom lip, the man hung his head and finished up the text before tossing his phone on the bed near the tablet. ... your chest is a mere bonus. I am helping you because I couldn't leave you back there. And now you have no where to go since I did. I feel responsible to... Casually footsteps lead him to the bed, where he then came to lay on his stomach next to her. His eyes peered into her own as he kept his voice to a bedroom pitch, ... protect and care for you. At least for as long as you want to be here with me. I am not going to hold you hostage. You're free to go whenever you want... but I'd rather you stay. His eyes narrowed some with want as they looked toward her. The sun from the windows poured over them as he rested upon his elbows while laying on his stomach. I've never seen a woman as beautiful as you. I'd be rather let down if you decided to stave on your own instead of being with me.
