with tattoos.
His gaze flicked to me, starting at my bare feet and moving delectably slowly up my body. When he finally reached my face, I thought I saw a moment of shock cross his bold features. I touched Charlie's arm lightly, surprising him. He quickly turned towards me and his face softened slightly.
"Baby, go back to bed. I'm just dealing with some business." He said, bringing my hand to his mouth and kissing it gently. I couldn't tear my eyes away from the man standing before us, Lincoln. I knew that there was something important about him. His body called out to me, and if I had met him when I first was taken by Charlie I'm sure I would have screamed at him to take me, to save me. But I had learnt to be a lot smarter than that, I knew how to get what I wanted from Charlie, and now was one of those times I had to play the part, to get this guy out of here and safe.
I pouted up at Charlie.
"But I was looking for you and you weren't in bed." I'm not sure whether it was confusion or surprise that crossed his face but I quickly continued, hoping to use it to my advantage. "Please come to bed with me."
I pulled his hand towards me and his body followed, an arm snaking softly around my waist.
"I'll finish this, then come straight there. Go and wait for me."
I shook my head, to Charlie it was me saying no, but in reality it was simply because I couldn't believe what was about to come out my mouth. I tip toed up and placed my mouth close to his ear. My eyes stayed focused on Lincoln who looked surprisingly agitated at my show of affection, fisting his hands tightly. Charlie pulled me in tighter. I placed a hand on his chest and fiddled with the buttons on his white collared shirt.
"Throw him out the door now," I nodded towards Lincoln, "and I will let you have anything, and do anything with me that you want."
He pulled back and searched my eyes, I kept them as innocent as possible. My stomach was turning, wishing for him to give in to my advances. I just knew I needed to get this guy out the door and Charlie away from him quickly.
He gripped my hip so tightly I just about cringed in pain, but I noticed the hunger that shot through his eyes and I held his gaze without falter.
He didn't move to look at the man as he spoke.
"Mr Davids, I'd like to introduce you to my partner, Samantha Ashley." Charlie turned me so my back was pressed to his chest, he pulled slowly at the tie that was wrapped around my waist, holding my silk gown together. I shuffled nervously as it fell open at the front, exposing my black silk thong and matching lace bra which were both trimmed with red stitching. Lincoln folded his arms tightly across his chest causing his muscles to stretch against his tshirt but held his eyes only on my face. His body was stiff and he was clearly annoyed at this turn of events.
"Isn't she beautiful?” Charlie said, dropping his mouth to my neck and grazing his lips gently over the sensitive space below my ear causing my body to shudder involuntarily. Lincoln's lips pursed and his eyes narrowed. I dipped my eyes; ashamed of the way Charlie was obviously using me to provoke a response.
"She's stunning." My eyes shot back up as Lincoln's voice resonated in the large space. A dimple slowly formed in his cheek as his mouth turned up on one side. "Don't suppose you'd let me take her off your hands?" He said eying Charlie with a smug look, showing he was unintimidated by this show of arrogance. I suppressed the smile that tugged at my mouth. I was impressed and deeply intrigued by this mysterious man who stood confidently in front of me. Charlie's grip on my waist tightened and I cringed waiting for his anger to take over and for him to give the order to destroy this cocky and defiant stranger.
"Seems today is your lucky day, Lincoln." My eyes widened in surprise and in my head I sighed in relief.
"It would seem I have more important things to do than putting a bullet in you for sticking your nose where it’s not
