[Excerpt]: "Does it bother you?" He asked, after an incisive moment of silence. "Does...what bother me?" I immediately returned, unable to decipher the objective behind the closed-ended question. "The way I stare. At you." He pondered, as his dark gaze studied my flushed appearance. Glowering down at me from a modest distance above, I was sure he could uncover every last one of my veiled secrets with one of his enigmatic looks. The way his midnight gaze steadily roamed across my unassuming frame had caused my body to ignite from within, but it also spawned me to wonder what about the man aroused such pronounced feelings from me. "Yes." I finally responded in a fragile voice I barely recognized as my own. Rather than acknowledge the closeted remark, he smoothly strutted forward until his body was crouched directly in front of mine. Our faces were now jarringly closer than they'd been mere seconds ago, allowing me to analyze the perfectly smooth ridges of his unblemished features. "Good." He concluded, as his melancholy orbs drifted to my stilted lips. **Contains mature/adult content

"Where is it?" I grit, looking down at him. When he doesn't respond, I stand in front of the screen to block his view and force him to look at me. "You're so childish, you know that?" I analyse with a squint. My eyes trail behind him, to the centre of his sheets on the bed and my phone lights up with a notification. He must've caught it too because he reaches back before I can even react and pushes the phone into the waistband of his shorts. "I was actually gonna give it back to you at the door then you cursed at me, so now I changed my mind." I release the biggest self controlling sigh, step forward and grab at the neck of his shirt, threateningly. "Leo do not play with me, I will reach in and take it. No hesitation." His eyes meet mine and he chuckles before grabbing my wrists with his large hands and speedily flipping me so I land with my back flat against the bed with him now towering over me, his knees beside my thighs on the mattress. "Go on then," He smirks. "Take it." •~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~• Leonardo Blanc and Noémie Moreau have known each other longer than they can both remember.

𝐏𝐀𝐓𝐈𝐄𝐍𝐓. is one word to describe aiden johnson. I prop my elbows on top of the kitchen counter, leaning forward as I continue sucking on my cherry red lollipop. Glancing up, I stare directly into his eyes as I unhook my lips from the treat making a pop sound that echoed throughout the kitchen. He stared intensely at me as my tongue ran across the tip of the lollipop. I hear him groan roughly, desperate which causes me to wickedly smirk. The color in his eyes suddenly drains. He rounds the counter, stopping directly in front of me. "You're playing with fire," He mumbles dangerously low, looking down at me. His drained-colored eyes watch my mouth in awe as my tongue rounds the entire treat seductively. He narrows his eyes at me. "Then burn me," I whisper, taunting him, challenging him as I now stand chest to chest with him. In a fast motion, Aiden snatched the lollipop from my mouth, dropping it onto the ground before gripping my chin and forcing my head up. "Fire makes smoke, baby. You know that right?" My cool lips kiss his thumb which makes him tug my red lip. Staring directly into his eyes, I pull out another lollipop from my pocket, unraveling the wrapper. "The question is, can fire handle all of this smoke?" I whisper, bringing myself to his height to lightly brush my lips against his which makes him groan again. I suck on my new lollipop and turn around walking away, his gaze lingering on me until I was out of sight. I smile, knowing he was coming to find out for himself.
