The Traps of the Black Swan

Lisa smiled hearing her voice without opening his eyes, 'It is so pleasant to wake up to her voice.' He thought to himself and opened his eyes to see her mute, looking at him in confusion sitting on his bed in black satin slip top and shorts.

His room glass wall faces east, the early morning rays were falling on her snowy skin giving her added glow making him hard to distract his gaze. He asked himself, 'Why is she seducing me early in the morning?'

Ruby Jane gently smacked his head receiving no response, "Are you dreaming? Why are you smiling like an idiot?"

Lisa leaned on the headboard of the bed looking away from her. He calmed himself first with her weird way of saying good morning then taught her, "Start your day with a smile, now smile for me..."

Ruby Jane controlled her jaws from dropping down hearing his soft groggy tone which was actually dreamy but she wasn't in the mood to admire it. 'What the hell does he mean by smile for me?' She grabbed a water glass from the bedside table.

Lisa was thinking she might drink before smiling but she poured a little to her cupped palm and sprinkled it on his face leaving him at utter speechlessness. He had forgotten his current cupcake is completely offbeat, she doesn't care about what she didn't want to pay attention to.

Ruby Jane asked seriously ignoring his expression, "Did you wake up now?" She didn't let him speak and continued hurriedly in anxious blaming herself and him too, "I had brought Blue Crocus for you, didn't you get it? They are hard to find, my people searched those for two days. Somebody might have taken it away, ahh, why were you so late yesterday? I was sleepy and it didn't get to my mind. I wanted..."

Lisa realized why she was overworking her brain, he watched her making all sorts of hands actions while speaking. Her changes were very apparent with him, from Ruby Jane that she behaved hiding her emotions to the normal girl with every kind of emotion.

His real cupcake used to make all kinds of faces to bring his smile and to let her help him in the café. He might not get the same version yet he is happy to see all versions of her. Even if she becomes a haughty queen, he would still indulge and spoil her.

Hearing her going on and on without checking the other side of the bed, he slowly moved nearer and pecked on her lips corner catching her off guard. Her skin felt very soft on his lips that gave him an urge to kiss again.

Ruby Jane froze, unknowingly stiffening her body, widening her eyes at Lisa. She also came to her senses how shamelessly she left her room in just satin slip top and shorts. She wanted to bang her head for forgetting her sheath robe. Her current feelings were similar to sitting in front of him wearing nothing.

Lisa sighed internally seeing her cautious and stiffness. He knew he had to slowly make her emotionally and physically intimate, otherwise, her psychological barrier doesn't let her move ahead. He might have crossed the first highest wall she had built around herself but he knows it wasn't enough.

She sealed her lips thinking she might have sounded nonsense and he might not even like flowers or it might not matter to him. She completely changed the topic as she got off the bed, "Do you want to come to cult fit?"

The merriment and the attention had in her tone changed to plain carrying no sentiments. Lisa didn't let her walk away, he grabbed her hand and pulled her to his arms effortlessly.

"Lisa..."

Ruby Jane first time felt like cursing herself for her dressing because she wasn't wearing lingerie and satin clothes were too thin. She could feel his warm arm around her waist and her chest pressing on his facing him.
