Those eyes. Those fierce hazel eyes. They watched in silent contemplation as Cecilia graced the ballroom floor with her presence. She moved with a poise he found indisputable. As much as he wished to turn away, he could not. She was simply too beautiful to ignore. He wanted her, needed her, and hungered for her. Hungered to press his frame against hers in the moonlight. To kiss her and to envelop her within his libido. His soul felt selfish in the face of such exquisite beauty. He took a long sip of vodka from the frosted glass pinched between his index and middle finger.
Devon was of average height, though his frame carried a musculature rarely seen in his sedentary occupation. He was short and stocky, a Pitbull of a man, in description and personality. He wondered what Cecilia thought of him. They were two opposites in life. One seemed to care only for his own success while the other gave as much of herself to others as possible. He wondered if she hated him, hated him for his money and the way he accumulated it and hoarded it for himself like an angry dragon in fantasy stories of yore.
Devon tried his best to hide his shameful appetite. To ignore the lust in his soul, but no matter how much he tried to repress his feelings he was unable to. With one last sip of his cocktail, he marched towards Cecilia as she greeted guests for her reception. This ballroom was rented by one of the many charities she worked for.”Hello, Madam. Are you here alone tonight?” He already knew the answer. She was far too busy helping the less fortunate to find a suitable date for the night’s festivities.
