If he is resisting or getting actively involved, I can't tell, but I see her pull away, a huge smile on her face like she had just won a vicious battle.
She flashes me a quick smile before looking back at him; his shoulders keep moving, evidenced by his hard breaths.
She leans in and whispers something to him, and I see him still. Then, she relaxes before starting her devilish giggle; it irritates me.
‘Can you just move!' I beg my legs; they are willing to move this time, but my brain wouldn't permit them to.
I suddenly want to know how this will play out, the desperation to hear whatever it is she whispered to him.
Her hands roam on his body and I hear him grunt. A grunt I recognize, my heart deflates.
‘You have a mate Moon!' I warn myself, and in doing that, an image flashes in my mind, and my eyes open in horror.
What if Liam had his fill waiting at our usual spot and decided to come to the gate like he had done once?
What if he had seen Aiden place that dirty lips of his on mine?
Oh no, no. This can't be, it can't. Right?
I am brought back to the present when she leans in again and whispers something to him. She leans back and laughs like she heard the greatest joke watching his face.
Her hand went downwards slowly, before reaching that place I already knew it was heading to. His shaft. She touched it, looking at me, and I paused my lips at her shamelessness.
He shifted in his feet and bent, probably to hide his excitement.
'What are you doing girl?" I got startled, falling backward only to roughly get pushed away.
'Easy there, Li; we don't want her disfigured when it's only the first day." Amira caught me before I fell on my face.
What did she mean by when it's only the first day? How do you explain feeling dread? Let's start with my tongue, it feels like my body secretes something I can't explain because my mouth suddenly starts feeling weird and bitter.
A strong grip on my left shoulder and I had a hiccup. Why were they so strong? Did they train so hard to be this strong or it's a natural gift?
'You want to watch a man and a woman get together?" Lilian asked me in a low voice not to interrupt what was going on between Aiden and Diana.
I shook my head vigorously; I felt my brain shake. I wouldn't dare, not after knowing what they were capable of.
'Who would say yes? Nobody, so I'd take your ‘no' for a ‘yes'. Get ready."
'Let's leave," Becky said occasionally placing her weight on different feet, her eyes looking at everything but the occupant of the hallway.
'You are always in a hurry." Lilian turns to Becky.
For a fraction of a second, I thought she had wanted to turn on her, maybe whack her across the face or something, seeing the intensity of her stare and action.
'No…"
'You can leave," Lilian told Becky to which she gave a small wave before leaving.
'You, follow me," Lilian said, taking a grip of my hand.
'No," I whispered at first, my eyes wide with horror.
Amira started laughing, 'Come on, it won't hurt. It's not like you don't want to see it."
The horror in me seems to interest them even more.
'Please, I found myself begging."
'Tsk tsk." I heard someone suck their teeth.
Looking up, I see Diana looking down at me.
'You are no fun at all." She said sneering at me.
'Leave her be."
Lilian dropped my hand and I staggered to a fall to be held again by Amira. By this time, I had already developed a post-traumatic stress disorder for the floor with the number of falls and near falls I had had in just a day.
'You had to come in and interrupt a sweet moment huh?" She asked me, and I shook my head again.
'You selfish thing." She made it as if to touch me but stopped midway, blowing off the imaginary speck of dirt in her hand.
I looked in the direction of Aiden and saw him gape like a fish just drawn out of the water, not knowing what else to do to survive.
His eyes were wide; he was in shock. His ears and neck were red; he was probably embarrassed, and I wondered why. Is he embarrassed because he was caught by me, or is he embarrassed because others saw him, too? He was enjoying whatever things had been done to him a few minutes before now.
I stared at him, and he opened his mouth as if to say something, but no words came out. Enough of him, I look back at Diana who has an amused smile on her lips.
'You had better stop whatever is going on between you two before it gets crazy." She said and moved ahead.
Willing to disappear, I made a move only to see her stop, turn, and walk towards me.
What in Selene's name does she want?
She stops a few inches from me and bends herself to get to my ears before whispering.
'Your man looks beautiful by the way." She drew back to study my expression.
If there was a bigger word for confusion, I would have used it, I can't seem to grasp what she meant.
Leaning in again, she said, 'Short dark hair, muscular with a commanding presence that makes me weak on my knees, and most especially his piercing yellow orbs."
Drawing back this time, she had a look of satisfaction as I began breathing hard, my body quaking.
'Where…"
'Where I saw him right?" She showed me her teeth with her eyes almost closed.
'Figure it out yourself."
