Lady Red

* 8 *

"That color compliments you well miss"

Davion took LADY RED's hand and spun her around to get a better look.

"This ol' thing... You like?"

LADY RED teased as she danced around Davion, showing off her dress a little more.

He rubbed the back of his necking, smiling.

"You know I do. Now why don't you join me for some lunch. I hope you have an appetite"

Davion motioned to the table adorned with the finest china he had imported in from his trip travelling across East Asia. LADY RED didn't hesitate to take a seat at the Bosses table. The gold accented upholstered chair cushioned her thick frame as she sat down. Davion pushed in her chair and took his seat at the head of the table right next to her- as he should. He wore a white buttoned down shirt with slightly fitted khaki pants, some classic white leather low top sneakers, diamond earrings and a simple gold watch.

He's a little over dressed for lunch at home. I wonder if he's going somewhere...

LADY RED thought to herself as she studied Davion's attire. But she had no complaints watching this fine specimen of a man before her.

"What's on the menu for today?"

LADY RED asked, low key hoping that Davion was the lunch special for the day.

"Whatever your heart desires miss. I'm having my usual"

And like clockwork, Lady Hanna appeared from the kitchen pushing a rolling table filled with delicious food, drinks, sweets & more. LADY RED's face lit up as she watched Lady Hanna serve Davion an amazing spread of food. After she was done, she poured some hot ginger tea in his cup and took a step back.

Davion slowly sipped the steaming cup of tea, being careful not to burn himself.

"Mhm. Perfect. As always, thank you Hanna"

Davion raised his cup in Lady Hanna's direction.

"My pleasure Mr. Masters."

She nodded and turned her attention to LADY RED.

"Good afternoon again Miss. Chasity. Have you decided on what you would like to eat yet for today?"

Lady Hanna smiled as she waited for a response but LADY RED on the other hand, was taken aback.

Is this real life right now? I can have whatever I want, whenever I want and I don't have to spend a dime... I must be dreaming.

LADY RED was trying to process everything that was happening. It's just now hitting her that she's here having lunch at a strangers house... A VERY rich stranger might she add.

Lady Hanna had a puzzled look on her face when LADY RED never returned a response. She glanced over at Davion for an answer. He nodded his head as if to say "Don't worry, I got this from here" because she quickly excused herself and wheeled the now empty rolling table back in the kitchen.

"Would you like to try some of my dish beautiful?"

Davion pointed at his plate.

LADY RED leaned in to get a better look at the array of unfamiliar food laid out in front of her.

"I'm not too sure what it is that you're eating... and please. You don't always have to be so proper. You know you can call me Chasity."

LADY RED batted her long eyelash extensions at Davion, once again unleashing her flirtatious side.

One could say that somebody was finally warming up to Davion... slow and steady.

Davion cleared his throat.

"My apologies... Chasity. I just wanted to be polite. How about you try this"

Davion scooped up some food, placing it in between his fingers and outstretched his hand towards her mouth.

"Um... What are you doing?"

LADY RED questioned, staring at Davion's hand in her face.

Davion lowered his hand and laughed.

"This is a traditional dish from Africa, where my family is from. It's normal for people to eat with their hands there. Trust me. I washed my hands before I sat down. Plus... I never have a bowl of water too far away. Here"

Davion outstretched his hand once again.

LADY RED side eyed him but she eventually gave in. She opened her mouth and allowed him to feed her with his hands.

"Mmmm" the sound of satisfaction escaped her lips.

Whatever it was she just tried, it was amazing and she wanted more.

Before he could pull away, she placed both of her hands around his and sucked off any excess food that was left behind on his fingers. Something about being fed by hand turned this kind gesture into an unexpected intimate moment.

Davion dipped his fingers in the bowl of water and dried his hands off with a table napkin. He covered his lap hoping that the now growing bulge in his pants would go unnoticed.

"Well I take it you enjoyed it"

"I definitely did Davion..." LADY RED purred.

"I think I'll have some more of whatever that is. I'm really feeling the international vibes"

Davion smiled.

"Good. Hanna, could you please prepare a bowl of Fufu and egusi soup for Miss- I mean- the beautiful Chasity."

He glanced over at LADY RED who was watching him intensely. She was enjoying being taken care of for once.

Lady Hanna appeared from the kitchen.

"Yes Mr. Masters"

"And can I have a glass of champagne please!" LADY RED added.

Lady Hanna peered over her glasses.

"How would you like a bottle of BLUMOND™ Blue bubbly on ice?"

"Sounds good to me. Thank you"

"My pleasure Miss. Chasity. I will bring that right out to you"

Lady Hanna disappeared behind the kitchen doors and got to work preparing her lunch.

Now that they were alone, their food wasn't the only thing heating up.
