Will Love Ever Come?

Chapter 45

FOR THE PAST FIFTEEN minutes, Deuce has been trying to get Salacious next door in the bedroom.

"Nah, stop!" she says, leaning off Deuce's shoulder.

"Ah, babes, man, why you going on like that for?"

She pulls his hand from behind her. "Just give me some space, man."

He wants to suck his teeth and disrespect her, but instead, he smiles and whispers, "You need a drink before anything goes down, innit?"

She twiddles her hair. "I'm not saying that, but it would be nice to have a drink, yes."

He looks over at Eschewal and grins. "Oi, blood, I beg you a favor, go shop for me, please?"

For a moment, Eschewal does not respond or take his eyes off the TV. He slides his hands down his legs as he stretches them out. "Alright, give me the money then," he says with an even tone. He wants Deuce and Salacious out of his house as quickly as possible.

Deuce gets up. "Buy a half-a-bottle of brandy and a bottle of coke, yeah," he mouths, "and a box of condoms."

Eschewal nods. "Alright, man, I'll be back in a minute," he leaves the room.

Salacious looks at the time on her phone. She had hoped her boyfriend would have called back, deterring her from what she is about to do.

Under her breath, she says, "Bastard," then switches off her phone. She turns to Deuce close enough to kiss him and says, "Are you upset with me, babes?"

For a moment, he does not answer and wonders, 'Why do girls love to play games?' He shakes his head and smiles. "Nah, I'm not upset, babes, but you're going on cold, innit?"

She licks her lips. "I just got something on my mind," she says while pushing her body onto him.

Instantly he gets an erection.

"Yeah, well, let me try and take that off your mind." He gropes her up and down.

She lifts her head, revealing her neck.

He bites down on it, and she moans.

He sucks and licks. She moans some more.

His hand wanders towards her crotch. He unzips her jeans halfway and says, "Oi, come, let's go next door to the bedroom?"

"Nah, I'm not ready." She zips up her jeans.

"What?" he responds, sounding confused and upset because The Dog's urge is upon him and needs to be unleashed.

"Nah, not yet," she pleads as she moves away.

He sucks his teeth. Thoughts of getting ruff with her come and go because Eschewal could come back at any minute.
