The Seductress

Chapter 3

I sat on my couch slurping noodles and watched as a couple fucked each other like feral animals on the TV .
My sex life was pretty non-existent considering how I caved in and let Jeff in my panties.

I grimaced and wondered if I should be seeing my gynaecologist for a check up so I don't get surprised by any STD's even though we used condoms when Jeff and I slept together.

My eyes were glued to the screen ,these people are crazy I laughed,maybe if I was more confident I would have game.For all we know I would've got Marcus in my bed by now.

My eyes glossed over the unopened envelopes on the coffee table in front of the couch,they were probably house bills i hadn't yet gotten around to paying.

I didn't have any crazy debt since this three bedroom,2 bathroom cozy house was fully payed for by my parents before they had met their untimely end.

I tore my gaze away from the table ,and focused hard on the romcom , trying to not think about my loss today.

It was hard not to ,but I don't want today to be one of those days.

I took in a deep breath and exhaled shakingly.

I jumped suddenly registering the sound of faint knocking on the front door.

I panicked,"who the fuck would be looking for me at this time?",i muttered annoyingly to myself.And besides ,apart from Mr.Buge ,no one else was willingly invited to knock on my doors without prior knowledge.

I could silently feel the pulse at the side of my head ,I was scared shitless as I got up and made my way to the door.

I took a knife from the kitchen just in case ,I got to the door and looked into the peephole and there was Marcus?.Why would he be knocking at my door at this time,i looked hideous right now .

Clad in a worn out T-shirt with nothing underneath.I know lol,I was scandalous like that.

I thought of running away to my room and acting like no one was at home but at the same time my lips were pulsing and we all know I didn't mean the ones on my face.

I breathed in and gently opened the door ,"Umm can I help you?",I asked in one breath.

How embarrassing.You have him Infront of your doorstep and this is all what you could say?,I mentally facepalmed myself.

He just smiled .Goshhhhhhh

"I-",he stopped

"I know this is weird but I brought you food",he finished raising the package in his right hand ,I was so lost in his eyes I didn't even realize he had brought anything else.

"How did you U-Um",I said trying to look tough,"How did you get here?",i asked feigning disinterest.

"Mr .Buge?",he responded,it sounded more like a question than an answer to be honest.

I just shook my head .That sneaky old man ,out here playing matchmaker.How dare he?.Not like I had anything to say anyway.

I unshered him inside the house and I could somehow tell he was surprised that a bar tender had a house like this,he looked around discreetly and I could tell he wasn't trying to judge either,so I answered it for him.

"It belonged to my parents,they left it to me in their will after they died from a car accident 3 years ago".His face softened.

"I don't need the pity ",I added and he straightened up and coughed into his sleeve .

I chuckled.

"So you've been living here alone since you were 18?",he asking looking at me.

"Yeah ,not pretty eventful",I replied

He breezed past me and placed the food on the kitchen counter.I forgot we were still Infront of the door even though I had closed it.

"Umm so do you want to eat now or later,it's lasagna ", he asked whiles removing his coat and dropping it on the edge of the couch .

I loved lasagna but this would have to wait .

"Later",I responded,glancing at him for a minute before unwrapping the food and placing it in the fridge to eat later on and placing the knife back in it's holder .

I made my way towards the couch and joined him on it .

He had made himself home pretty fast and I couldn't complain about it.I wouldn't either.

He was looking at the movie playing on the TV and I took that at my chance to fully observe him from my peripheral.He still had on his work clothes consisting of a plain shirt and fitted trousers.
The shirt fit him perfectly,his sleeves were rolled up and the muscles peeking through were just making me wet again.
I kicked my lips unconsciously.

"Are you okay,you were holding a knife earlier on ",he asked, knocking me right out.

I stuttered.

"Yes I'm fine,I wasn't expecting visitors"
"I-I wanted to thank you as well for the food",I said looking at him thoughtfully.

He nodded once and turned to look at me .

"So what were you up to ,before I showed up ?", he asked looking around.

"N-nothing",I answered,my face was flushed and my ears felt hot.

I think he noticed because he gently touched my face and made me stare straight at him ,since I was trying so hard to find interest in everything else but him.

"I can smell you",he said with a strange look in his eyes

I gulped

"What do you me-",I was cut off by his mouth suddenly slamming on mine .

He kissed me egearly and yet softly at the same time .

He caressed my face whiles being rough simultaneously.It was quite exhuberating and I was soaked .
I'd never had anyone kiss me like this before.But at the same time my mind was screaming for me to stop,I barely knew this man yet I was kissing him like my life depended on it.

Somehow in our hot make out session I had ended up straddling him and his hands inturn explored my whole body.It felt amazing,more than that.

We pulled apart breathless.

"I t-think we shouldn't",I said breathlessly.

"Shouldn't do what?",he asked knowingly,with a mischievous glint in his eye

My eyes were as wide as saucers.

"I want you Alexis , I've wanted you since I walked in that bar yesterday",he said pushing some of my hair behind my ears.
