-Chapter 4- Loyalty

{Rosalia}

The way his lips moved against mine was fast and hot with need. I couldn't pull away. His hands cupped my face and forced me to not stop. Every inch of my body was pressed between him and the pillar. His hard muscles beneath his black button up was incredibly sexy and made me even more hot for him.

The kiss went to a slow stop and he pulled away an inch from my face. His deep blue eyes were now a dark stormy grey. I was pulling the monster out of him, both literally and metaphorically.

I licked my lips in anticipation that he would swoop down and capture my lips again. But his eyes only flickered to my lips then my eyes.

"We should be meeting Joseph in a few minutes at the Venus Majestic Hotel." he cleared his throat and backed away. "Shall we?" he motioned with his hand to follow.

I stumbled along behind me as he called for the valet to bring his car. I made sure to wipe away any lip gloss that might've smeared and patted my hair down. My skirt had risen up to the top of my thighs so I quickly yanked the damn thing down since the valet seemed quite interested in the color of my panties.

Dirty old perv.

A sleek black Aston Martin Vanquish (sexy car btw) pulled up to the curb. The valet rushed to open the passenger door for me and I scoffed at his eagerness.

If he thinks I'm panty flashing, he's so wrong.

I had a tight smile on my face as I gracefully slid in the leather seat. As he tried to close the door, I grabbed the door and opened it, only to hit him in the shins then closed my door again. As he bent down in pain, I twinkled my fingers and blew him a kiss.

"Was that necessary?" Nathan asked as he got in the car.

"I don't know what you're talking about." I replied innocently.

He smirked in the direction of the valet. Then he looked at me. "You really are something, Rosalia."

"Whatever. Just drive."

He mock saluted and started the car. A soft pur rang through the lot as we made our way to Venus Majestic.

There was no talk of what just happened between us. It was just silence enveloping the air.

I noticed Joseph right away. His stiff posture and his platinum blonde hair was hard to miss. He looked ready to jump at anyone that even waved. As my heels clacked on the cement floor of the hotel, Joseph turned towards us in a way only a graceful vampire could. He straightened his tie and met us halfway.

"Rosalia, thank goodness you're safe. I knew I shouldn't have let you come alone." he said as he checked to make sure I wasn't hurt.

His eyebrows raised as he saw the remnants of my scraped knee. "And what is that?"

"Everything was going great till King Kong here tackled me to the ground." I said.

Joseph straightened and turned to Nathan, his lips pursed.

"Nathan."

"Joseph."

I looked between the two and noticed how deftly attractive both of them were. Jospeh stood tall and proud as if he were the King of England himself. His blonde hair coiffed to perfection and his light blue eyes sharp. He wore a grey suit that complimented his overall facial features with a black vest beneath his coat. The crisp white of his shirt was impecably bright. Not bad for a man in his thirties...or what looks to be anyway.
