Taken By A Vampire Playboy

Chapter Five :

As soon as his eyes met mine, I froze.

Well, this is definitely inconvenient.

"I, uh, sorry .." I looked down and felt an intense blush work its way over my cheeks.

Way to go genius.

I began to make my way around him, but felt something stop me. Looking downwards yet again, I saw his rather large hand encircling my wrist.

"Um, I have to go .. My friend is waiting for me .." I swiftly pulled free from his grasp and felt the blush I was trying to hide intensify.

He chuckled lowly causing my insides to flutter in a rather unsettling manner.

"You mean the lively red head? Coincidentally enough, she's with one of my friends in the V.I.P. area. Would you care to accompany me?"

I looked up and found his eyes trained on me, a hand held out in my direction.

This is probably a bad idea .. but if Kat is up there, might as well ..

"Uh, sure?" It came out more like a question, but cautiously, I placed my hand in his and jumped when his shockingly cold hand closed around mine.

Amusement crossed his features, revealing two adorable dimples.

Bad Iris, the dimples may be aodrable, but don't think those things! He's a stranger.

Seeing my very apparent unease, he chuckled again and leaned in, "Don't worry, I don't bite .. Hard."

Oooooh, boy ..

I felt myself tense up and, once again, blushed profusely.

This made him let out another round of amazingly sexy laughter.

"Come on, our friends are probably wondering where we are." He gently tugged on my hand, millions of little sparks ran up my arm as he did so.

We wove through the still growing crowd of people until we came to a staircase guarded by two large, scary bouncers. He flashed what looked like some sort of pass and we were allowed through.

As we were walking up the stairs, he turned to me, "That reminds me, I never caught your name."

For a minute I forgot how to speak, but quickly regained some semblance of composure. "It's, uh, Iris."

He gave me an award winning smile and we continued up the staircase. "A very pretty name befitting a very pretty girl. My name's Micah."

If he gets any closer I may combust.

I fanned myself with my free hand.

We stopped walking and he let go of my hand. Looking up in confusion, I realized we'd finally reached our destination.

Yeah, you didn't realize right away because you were too busy checking out that glorious ass of his.

I mentally scolded myself and surveyed the place.

The V.I.P. area was surprisingly small. Only a few people were seated at various groupings of couches. I spotted Kat a short distance away and sighed in relief before a voice broke me from my reverie.

"Are you going to stand there all night?" I turned to my left to see a grinning Micah surrounded by his mini harem.

He patted the space next to him earning me dirty looks from most, if not all, of the girls.

Seeing my clear reluctance, he shooed them away, leaving just us. "Better?"

I nodded, slowly making my way over to him. I made sure to sit at the very edge of the couch.

As soon as I sat down, an arm encircled my waist and pulled me very close. I turned my head and was met by Micah's face a mere inch or two away from mine.

"I already told you, I don't bite very hard."

I instantly tensed when his cool breath ran over my face and was hit hard with his intoxicating scent : Mint, cologne, & something else I couldn't quite put my finger on.

Gosh you smell amazing .. wait, stop it! BAD IRIS!

Before I had time to react, my train of thought was yet again broken when I felt a hand tilt my chin up, and a pair of soft lips were smashed against mine.

Oddly enough though, I didn't care. Instead, I found myself immersed in the kiss and was HIGHLY disappointed when it abruptly ended.

When I opened my eyes, a very smug, satisfied, and slightly flustered Micah was nose to nose with me.

"Ooooh, you get it girl!" Kat's voice sounded a short ways away from us, causing me to pull away and blush for the hundredth time tonight.

Realization hit me quickly.

I just gave my first kiss away to some stranger at a club and don't even care. What the hell is wrong with me!?
