Love At Carnal

Chapter 1 -

"Hurry up Laila, we leave in 5 minutes girl". 

Benji is my very best friend of 20 years. Annoying and the total opposite of me and would not change him for the world. Once he starts on something, it's just easier to go along with it. I had no intention of going out to the new club that had just opened, that really is not my scene, I'd rather stay home, have a few drinks and then dance on the tables where no one is watching.

Before I have time to reply, Ben is standing in the doorway, tapping his watch. "I'm coming now, keep your panties on" 

He says "Bitch please, I aint wearing any panties", we laugh and I chuck my pillow at him. "Drew is gonna meet us there with his new 'friend' too so hurry the hell up babe."

This new club Carnal club was not a place I would usually go. The atmosphere was completely different to our usual haunts. It was dark, smokey and completely crammed with people, shoulder to shoulder. The stench in there was vile. I couldn't hear myself think let alone talk to anyone. I just wanted to turn and head in the opposite direction of the 'Enter'.

"Stay close to me Laila, it'll get a lot worse when the VIPS arrive!" Drew called to me, as Benji led us further into the club. The noise was too much and I thought my ears were gonna pop. Then the atmosphere changed and everyone and everything went silent for a few seconds and bowed their heads. I was the only one who's head was up and looking around for the source of the blessed hush!

 Towards the back and left of the club stood a group of deliciously hot men all in the VIP section and as I was the only one not bowed, I caught the eye of the main man I believe. As he stared at me with a odd look on his face, his head tilted to the side. 

I had a brief moment of fear and then a feeling I had never experienced before. I knew I should break eye contact but was fixated on the man staring back at me. 

"Begin", he shouted and the music and everyone around came to life again. I on the other hand felt ill, I was hot, shaking, and was ready to pass out.

Benji noticed my discomfort and grabbed my arm and led me right to bar. We stood for ages waiting to be served then some guy a few paces down asked the bartender for the usual and got served right away. Ben starts to kick off as he does!

 " Oh hell no, we've been waiting ages to get a bloody drink, so take a step back" 

I slap his arm to calm him and the guy makes his way over to us, "I'm so very sorry, I thought your order had been taken care of, please allow me to buy you a round of drinks to apologise"

 I tell him that's kind but really no need, we would be leaving now anyway.

He moves closer to me and I'm suddenly engulfed with the sweet smell of marshmallows. I stare at the floor, feeling dizzy all of a sudden. A pair of large shit kickers, faded ripped jeans, a tight white t-shirt and a black biker jacket appear right in front of me. I can't look past his chest, muscles, very big, I know I should look away but I am rooted to the spot. A thumb brings my head up to meet the most beautiful face I have ever seen with dark hair styled Classic Pompadour, the perfect amount of stubble framing his strong jaw, white teeth and deep dark eyes. He towers over my short height and I crane my neck to glance over the 6ft + god. My mouth drops open and the smell overtakes me and I start to feel overwhelmed and dizzy.

"AHH, Benji, I can't..." I feel the floor coming up to smack me in the face and then I black out.

I come around a short while later in the VIP section, surrounded by about 20 men, the group of hot men from earlier I might add staring down at me with shocked looks on their faces. Wide eyed and feeling a little intimidated, I search around for Ben. 

"Oh my god babe, are you OK? , what the hell was that?" 

A young men kneels down beside me with a glass of water, I thank him and down the water in no time, still surrounded I try to get up too quickly and nearly end up knocked out again on the floor but 2 strong arms behind me stop me from falling. I know who it is by the smell, after all, he is the reason why I'm laid out anyway!

A couple minutes go by and I'm ready to get up and tell Ben I'm going home. The young man ushers us over to a booth to enjoy a round of drinks that I missed earlier. Ben scoots across from me and the 'marshmallow' sits next to me. I sat there taking deep breathes and staring wide eyed into space not having anything to say whilst Ben sat there chatting away and probably embarrassing me with old stories of us.

Ben asks me something but I'm still not aware of anyone or anything until I feel fingers running up and down my leg. My eyes widen even more than I thought possible and I stare at the stranger beside me, without looking at me, he smirks, rude and arrogant! I excuse myself to go to the bathroom and make a quick exit.

In the bathroom, I can finally breathe and focus on something, since meeting these guys I feel like I'm not even breathing and totally intoxicated. My phone starts to ring, and Ben's hollering down the phone if I have I left already, I laugh and tell him I met someone from years ago in there, I will be back in a minute. I try to compose myself and prepare for joining the guys again. The second i open the door a fraction, I am back to being completely out of it and I start to back away from the door, I sit in a cubicle with the door closed, but then the door slam open and hit the wall and footsteps nearing me. 

I swallow hard and stare at the floor. The door swings open and once again, I'm staring at the same large shit-kickers as before, he grabs my hand and pulls me up to him, pulling me close, one hand in my hair and the other on my waist, he takes a deep breathe and whispers something in another language and I know if he was not holding me up right now, my knees would have just buckled!

I exit the bathroom quickly and join Ben and the other at the table, they look at me funny and laugh. Hot Stuff takes his place next to me again and he places his hand on my leg, I should be telling him to get his hands off me but it feels nice and stupidly I feel safe. He won't hurt me

"So beaut, we should go and start packing if the guys are coming tomorrow night, you know how much crap I will have to pack!" 

Must have missed this conversation earlier, "Pack? What are you going on about, are you high!?, "You haven't been listening to anything we've talked about, what's up with you tonight? The guys here have offered to take us on their private plane and stay with them for a few days, hello girl, wake up!!" 

With a confused look on my face I reply "You are crazy, I can't just up and leave, I have a job to go to and this is crazy, you can go and have a great time, I'll see you when you get back."

The table starts to chuckle at me and I questioningly look to the hot guy beside me who seems to be laughing the loudest, "You misunderstand my love, we will be picking you up as soon as the sun goes down. Do not be late".
