Daddy's New Associate

Chapter 7

"Wow, this is nice" she said looking around, Alexander saw the restaurant's manager who gave him an awkward squint, and he mouthed 'Alexander' to him from behind her since most of the staff called him Mr.Hunter,

"Alexander" Eddie greeted him, "Long time no see" he played along with Alexander's game,

"Yea man. How things?" he asked casually,

"Things good man and who might this lovely lady be?" She chuckled as the man ogled her,

"This is Anabella" she gave her brightest smile as she man drank her down slowly, Alexander felt a pang of jealously as she blushed,

"Alright alright. We'll like a bottle of wine" he said quickly drawing closer to her,

"Coming up" Eddie said leaving them as Alexander lead her to a square table pulling out the chair for her, she gave him a quick 'thank you' before taking her seat and he sat opposite her.

Anabella could hear the thumping music from the party below them, but she was actually having a great time with him, even though she'll probably be killed later. Eddie brought a bottle of red wine and 2 glasses for them.

"Alexander can I talk to you for a minute?" Eddie asked

"I'll be right back you can help yourself" he said before leaving, "Yea?"

"Mr.Hunter the restaurant usually closes at 12 so I'll be leaving but I'll put up the reserved barrier so no one would bother you two" Eddie explained with his bag over his shoulder,

"Oh thank you" Alexander said helping him put the barrier in place,

"You have a good night sir" Eddie smirked and Alexander ignored what his smirk could imply, he returned to her she had already drank and glass of wine. He took a deep breath trying to remind himself this was all a part of a plan, and he couldn't feel anything for her even though her personality and the way she looked at him wasn't really making it easy, his brow creased and she looked back to see him frowning,

"Is everything ok?" she asked at his expression and his expression brighten,

"Yea everything is fine" he approached her taking his seat next to her. He poured him a glass before letting it flow down his throat quickly, Alexander was beginning to regret what he was getting himself involved in,

"It's so beautiful here" she said quietly into the silence between them,

"It's not as beautiful as you" he stated and Anabella wasn't sure if the wine was affecting her already or did her stomach actually have butterflies. "So Miss Anabella tell me what you do other than bump into strangers and throw their drinks on them" he asked filling up her glass,

"I'm so sorry about that I swear it wasn't on purpose" she apologized again making that a grand total of 3 times, he chuckled as she took sip, "That was all Lynn" he nodded but then he remembered he shouldn't know who Lynn was,

"Lynn? The girl you were with?" he asked casually,

"Yea that's Lynn my best friend. To answer your question I'm a model, the face of Crown Majesty Hotel"

"The face of Crown Majesty sounds like an important job while I'm just a bartender" he chuckled and she giggled,

"A bartender? So you're trying to get me drunk?" she coyly asked biting her lip, Alexander assumed the wine was getting to her but she had to be a light-weight since she didn't drink that much,

"I wouldn't think of doing such a thing" he replied and she giggled once more,

"I think you did a good job" she grinned and he laughed at her expression she looked really adorable even in her drunken state, she swayed slowly listening to the music.

She stood up walking on the cemented floor, rocking her body smoothly as the jazz played, her movements were silky as she shimmered in the fiery light provided by tiki torches, twirled keeping her eyes on him, he smiled as he watched her, seductively sway as her curves, she taunted him, she called him with her index finger,

"Dance with me" she called to him,

"I don't dance" he confessed running his fingers through his dark brown hair, she pouted,

"Come on it isn't that hard" she dragged him by his wrists pulling him to his feet,

"I'm serious I really don't dance" he remained in one position as she shimmied around him,

"Kick those shoes off and show me what you got" she wiggled dragging her fingers along her hips invitingly, he sighed kicking off his shoes matching her swaying movements.

She giggled at how timid he was, but the tune changed into a slower song and he extended his hand towards her. She took it, leaving a wide space between, he danced her around the open area under the stars, she looked up at him through her eyelashes and his eyes were on her, Anabella couldn't shake the warm feeling she felt at her center. She squeezed her legs together trying to contain herself, Alexander was bringing out all of her hidden desires with just a simple dance.

He spun her around and when she returned to him her body pressed against his, with her bosom resting gently on his chest, the fact that she wasn't wearing a bra he could feel her every movement, her body fit into his perfectly as she rest her head against his chest. She could hear every thump of his heart as they danced, it seemed to get louder with every step, his hand slid slowly down to the small of her back pulling her closer, she sighed as his hand pressed her body into his, her body seemed to seep more as his grip around her waist became tighter, Anabella's throat felt tight as she breathed deeply trying to get as much oxygen up to her brain as she found her hips rolling against him gently.

She looked up once again and her dark brown eyes met his once again, it was like they weren't even dancing to the song anymore but just dancing to the sound of each other's heartbeat,

"Alexander" she breathed out, it was almost inaudible,

"Yea Ana?"

"I thought you said you can't dance" she smirked up at him and he returned a similar smirk,

"I said I don't not can't" he said she blinked slowly at him, her lips tilted closer to him, he lower his face closer to her and her eyes drifted slowly close, his lips brushed against hers softly and it felt like all her nerve endings were tingling, his nose nuzzled her cheek,

"Ana"

She hummed her response, their lips brushed once again, "It's getting late" he informed and she smiled licking her lips,

"I know"

"You're not worried someone hasn't come looking for you" he whispered into her ear causing her to jolt,

"No. Are you?" she asked as his hand lower once again to right above the round of her bottom,

"I'm not but maybe we should get you back to the party" he said racking his nose down to her neckline,

"As long as we share one more dance" she requested savouring the moment,

"Your wish is my command."

***

As she wished she did get one more dance with Alexander before he helped her put back on her shoes, and practically carried her to the elevator as she giggled at everything possible including him struggling to get control of her,

"I'm fine I can walk the rest" she said confidently,

"Are you sure?" he cocked a confused eyebrow at her,

"I'm sure. Imma be in trouble" she grinned and he laughed,

"Good night Ana" he said kissing her cheek gently,

"Good night Alex The Bartender"
