At that moment, joan felt her breath get caught in her throat and all the hunger she felt vanished and was replaced by the feeling of butterflies in her belly.

Slowly Joan's eyes winded up as she took in the full appearance of Damien, from his feet which was cladded with expensive looking shoes up to his well tailored black suit and then his face which was partly enclosed with a mask that covered only from his forehead down to the top of his nose, so the other parts of his face were left bare.

Eventually Joan's eyes met Damien's own and she noticed that they were a shade of dark brown, almost similar to her's .

Joan couldn't hold his stare for long as she quickly adverted her eyes and looked anywhere else but at him.

Damien sensing her uneasiness decided to step forward and when he got near her he took her hand in his and led her down to the dinning table.

Meanwhile Joan didn't realise what was happening until she felt the sparks going through her hand and then spreading round her body, she then looked at their hands which were entwined together.

All of a sudden Damien stopped in his tracks causing joan to also stop and then he turned around and looked at her,  he then moved his hands towards her hair and pulled down the band which was holding her hair up making Joan's hair yo fall down and spread all over her shoulders, he then used his hands to smoothen out her hair, after he was done he rested his hands on both side of her face while caressing her cheeks and then he made her to look up at him.

All this while Joan's feet were just glued to the floor anticipating Damien's next move while her heart was beating rapidly  in her chest.

After Damien made sure Joan's eyes were fixed on him, he then slowly started leaning down until his face was directly in front of Joan's own and he could feel her breath fanning his face.

He knew she was feeling uneasy because of the way her breathing pattern was, it was uneven.

He smiled inwardly knowing that atleast he could make her feel this way and he was almost certainly sure that her heart would also be racing wildly in her chest.

He smiled the more knowing all these things.

He then looked at joan again but this time he looked deeply into her eyes and just admired their beauty and down to her pointed cute nose which was one of the features he admired about her and then finally down to her luscious full pink lips, which drew him in like a magnet and also one of the beautiful features that also complimented her equally beautiful face and one of the things that damien loves the most about her face. 

Damien then adverted his eyes back to Joan's own and then leaned down the more and planted a kiss on her lips while maintaining eye contact with her and then he saw how her eyes widened when their lips came in contact and how she stood frozen on the spot and became stiff.
