Haley had three on and off serious ones, but it all ended badly. She had learned the hard way that they all only wanted one thing from her, money and power. They only used her love to get what they wanted. But that was then when she was still naive and foolish.

“Wait,” Gerald suddenly pulled back, holding her face in the palms of his hands. Then, he stared at her as if demanding her attention. He kissed her one more time before letting her lips go. “I got to get this.”

She did not even notice that his phone rang. Or maybe it was in silent mode. But she sat and waited for him to get back as he moved to the window to talk in private. It did not take long.

When he got back, he assisted her off the couch and let her stand beside him as he reached for the remote. Then, soft music echoed in the room. He started dancing with her, leading her to the gentle sound.

When the song ended, he stopped. “Do you want something to drink?” He offered, moving to the side of the room, grabbing two glasses and a wine bottle.

All of this seemed familiar to her. It was a classic move before proceeding to the next phase. She had seen it countless times before, in movies and in real life. It was nothing new.

.....

“Yes, please.” After a few seconds, he was back at her side. She accepted a glass of wine and took a sip, allowing the alcoholic beverage to add to her courage.

She might not be innocent, but she doubted she was in the same league as him. She did not doubt that he was an expert in seducing a woman. She was not that naive to realize that.

His hands returned to caress her cheeks before he lowered his head and whispered something in her ears. “Take off your clothes for me.” It was such a hoarse request that sent tingles on her bones.

Instead of alarming bells, thrill sent waves of excitement throughout her body, only wanting to please by obeying his order. She knew she should be wary and run. However, she would rather stay and see through this new challenge.

Besides, nobody had ever tried to order her around before. All her past relationships only wished to show her what they thought would advance their agenda.

All her ex-boyfriends appeared like true gentlemen who could not hurt a fly, showing only their good sides. But inside, they were monsters, hiding behind their cute smiles and masquerades.

“Why?” Of course, she was a bit hesitant. She was not as bold when it came to sex. She was not that experienced.

She stood in the middle of his room, debating whether she should undress before him. It was different when he was the one doing it compared to her, giving him a show.

“It would prove that you want this and not just me. Besides, I want to see what lays under that beautiful dress.” Gerald returned to the sofa and sat comfortably, sipping his wine as if he could not wait for her performance.

Suddenly, she wondered if he was trying to scare her away. Then, she remembered the constant question of whether she wanted this. It was as if he was giving her a chance to back out. But it was only fueling her curiosity about him.

It seemed Gerald was different. He was not afraid to show her who he was and what he wanted from her. He was willing to point out that he was in command in this situation.

He was a contrast to all the boys she had dated. He was a complete badass, and he was not hiding it. “What about you? Are you not going to take your clothes off” She dared to ask as she let her fingers touch the zipper of her dress.

“I will but ladies first.” His eyes followed her fingers as they glided down on her side, loosening the dress she was wearing. Fortunately, the zipper worked this time.

Soon, her dress ended up on a pool at her feet as she stood in her new lingerie before him. She stepped aside and picked up her gown, placing it neatly on the armrest of a chair before standing straight before him.

She slightly felt uncomfortable, but the appreciation reflected in his eyes ignited burning confidence inside her. Then, he reached for her hand and tugged her until she sat on his lap.

Then, there was no more time to think as his lips claimed hers in a possessive kiss, demanding for her to surrender to his control. He took the lead in the kiss, not giving her an inch to resist. This time there was no turning back.

“I want your clothes off, too.” She breathily said, but her hands started working on his shirt, unbuttoning them until she could feel his skin against the palm of her hands.

Then, it was a fight for control as both wanted something from the other. An intense need that both desire to be fulfilled. Still, both minds debated whether they were doing the right thing.

But, of course, pleasure took over all reasoning as both indulged their need for the flesh. But as the saying went, regret always came after the deed was over and not before.

Not that she had any plan to regret this night. She came here sober, in her right mind, not coerced in any way. She had decided that, after a long time, she would like to take a risk with this man.

“You are perfect.” He huskily said in his low voice as he pulled her on top of him on the long sofa.

She doubted that. She never had a stellar life in contrast to what everyone thought. A girl who had everything, that was what she always heard. To others, it seemed she was living a dream, but to her, it was a curse.

Now, she hoped to break that curse and feel normal again. She wished to try again with a man who seemed to desire her. Not because of her money or power, but simply because of her.

But was he the right man? She had no clue.

But one thing was for sure she ought to try.

No guts. No glory.
