§ LOUIS §

I walked away from Chantelle so that I could go to the bar and get some drinks for us both. I got myself a whisky and her a vodka and tonic. As I made my way back to the private lounge, she had her back turned to me, and for the first time, I got a full view of her huge ass. She was so fucking sexy... It was hard for me not to stop looking at her.

"So, where are you from then b?" I asked as I joined her, trying my best to snap out of my trance again.

"I live about ten minutes away from this club," she said, with her hands on her hips. She reached up to take her drink from my hand, biting her lip as she lingered there before taking a sip out of it. I could feel my cheeks flush pink. "So, what do you do for a living?" she asked.

"I work, I dropped out of education," I said casually, like it was no big deal.

"Oh," she replied thoughtfully. "What do you do now then?"

"I own that massive retail business in Bullring," I shrugged. "Forest and Co." I obviously wasn't going to tell her about my other line of business. We'd only just met.

"Wow, no way," she said in disbelief. "You've done really well for yourself."

"I guess I have," I smiled.

She took steps closer to me, to the point that there was hardly any space between us. I could feel my breath catch in my throat. Her face was just inches away from mine, and it was taking all the self-restraint that I had left in me not to slam her against the wall and kiss her.

But she didn't even touch me. She took another sip of her drink, while staring directly into my eyes. "I'm a make-up artist," she said. "Not as good as what you've done, but..."

So she was really gonna tease me like that, and then carry on the conversation as normal? So she likes to play, huh. I couldn't help but smirk. I found it amusing, because this cat-and-mouse game just made me want her even more.

"Don't downplay yourself," I replied to her, a smile forming on the corner of my lip, as I took another sip of my drink. "You've done really well for yourself, too."

"Thank you," she said, rubbing her neck. Despite the sexual tension, I was really enjoying getting to know her. She was actually really interesting, and great fun to be around.
