ogling at him. She felt a blush immediately spread across her face. Demetrius gave her lop side smile. He stood up off the bed and walked over to stand in front of Reina. He leaned down keeping a mere inch between them as their eyes locked on one another. She knew he wanted her to make the first move but her heart was threatening to beat out of her chest and heat flooded her center. Demetrius was testing her. Giving her the choice to either make the first move or step back. Reina was practically panting and he hadn't even touched her yet! Reina was determined that he would have to make the first move. Even though it hadn't even been a minute yet it felt like hours! Demetrius could take it anymore! He would either have her mouth or die! He grabbed her by the waist and pulled her roughly to him before he leaned down and kissed her, swallowing her gasp. He groaned as Reina opened her mouth, giving him entry. Demetrius knew she would be sweet but he didn't think she would be this sweet! Reina moaned as Demetrius's tongue shaped her lower lip. God this woman was exquisite! Demetrius thought, Reina had to grab Demetrius's sleeve to keep her balance. Demetrius pulled back and she realized that his usually sky blue eyes were now a dark blue. He stepped back and smiled down at Reina looking at her slightly swollen mouth and how beautiful she looked while blushing. "T-this shouldn't have happened" I stuttered. Which only made Demetrius's smile widen. "Quite the contrary, Rein. I enjoyed that quite a lot" he told her as he used his thumb to shape her lower lip which sent shivers through her. She stepped back. Demetrius grabbed her arm and pulled her back to him. "Going so soon, mi corazon?" he smiled as he felt Reina tense as he said that endearment. Reina's eyes widen as she stared at him. Demetrius and his family were Spanish but all the time he has known her he has never called her that before. "Reina. Breathe" he told her as he grinned feeling pretty proud of himself. "Don't ever call me that. And as for the kiss it never happened" I told him as I wiggled out of his grasp and went out the door. Demetrius stood there dumb founded. What the hell just happened?! He knew she was inexperienced but it was refreshing for once! He knew Reina wasn't after his money which made her even more desirable to him. He cursed as he combed his hand through his hair. Reina went downstairs and saw Antonio and Gertrude sitting down for breakfast. "Had a good night out?" Antonio asked. She knew that tone and knew that what came next was going to be a lecture for sure. "Before you read me the riot act, in my defense I thought I was drinking water!" I told him. "She is right, padre. It is Malik he is a scoundrel. The man has no honor, no value" Demetrius said as he took the seat beside me. "I warned you about him, hija. I told you he was a nasty piece of work" Gertrude said as she put her fork down. "I know" I said as I sank lower in my chair. "Your father called last night. He wanted to know if you were over here. I told him yes. He said you are to phone him as soon as you wake up" Antonio told me. "I'll call him after breakfast" I replied. "I don't know Reiny. He sounded angry" Antonio pressed. Reina was in the middle of putting a fork full of bacon into her mouth when she stopped short and looked at Antonio. The fork stopped mere inches away from her mouth. Why would he be upset? It made no sense! She knew her father wanted her to marry Malik so his business would flourish but would he really be angry if she didn't? And then there was the way he insisted upon Malik keeping her out all night if he wanted to. Was her father selling her to Malik just to get in good with Malik?! No that's not possible. Her father may be many things but he would never do that! Would he? He did beat the living daylight out of her the day he found out she turned down Malik's offer to take her to dinner. She couldn't walk for a day! Lorenzo and Gertrude had to help her. Demetrius realized that Reina was in deep thought by the blank look on her face. What he wouldn't give to find out what was going on in that pretty little head of hers. Her fork still hadn't moved from when she paused so whatever she was thinking about must be pretty intense. Reina got up abruptly and went to the phone. She didn't realize her hands were shaking until when she had trouble dialing the house phone. "Hello?" her father's voice made her heart start beating fast. "Uh... dad" was all she could say. "Reina? Why the hell didn't you think to call me?!" he sounded angry. "I-I just woke up" I threw back. "Antonio said you were sleeping when I called. Reina why the fuck aren't you with Malik?" her father asked. "I got drunk and your precious Malik didn't want to bring me home because he didn't want to risk me throwing up in his new Bugatti so he left me with Demetrius" I whispered the last part. "Demetrius?!" his voice boomed over phone. "Yes father. Demetrius. The man who didn't care if I threw up in his car because he cared only for MY well being" I tossed back at him. "This is not over Reina Elizabetha Cortes. When you get home we WILL talk about this. I expect you home by evening" he said as he hung up. "Ugh! You can't control my life! I am twenty-one!" I screamed into the dead receiver. I slammed the phone into the socket and walked back to the dining room. "I take it, it didn't go well?" Antonio said. "What gave it away? The screaming you heard or me practically fuming?" I smiled at him. "Don't let your father bring you down, hija. Your room is always here for you when you need it" Gertrude told me. I smiled at her. I could tell Demetrius was staring down at me but I refused to look at him. Demetrius had heard every word of what Reina's father had said. He hadn't meant to eavesdrop but it was eating him up that she wouldn't tell him what was wrong at home! Then she begged him not to take her to his home what was that all about? Rein had been to his mansion already but it was always in the company of her brother, Lorenzo. What was Rein hiding? It intrigued him that even though he probably knew her better than everyone else maybe even her own father she was still a puzzle. He was going to find out what she was hiding no matter what. At that moment Demetrius's cellphone rang. It was always his policy to never answer his phone during meals with his family but it was his executive manager. Why would he be calling so early? "Talk" he said. "Mr. Vassaliadas. There is a problem at the company. One of the jets had a malfunction and it crash landed. No one got badly hurt sir but the news reporters want you to give statement. It is in the company's best interest that you do a press release" he told Demetrius. "One minute" he told Rogers. He put his hand over the receiver. "Mama, I am sorry but I will be taking this call in my room" he said. He got up but not before leaning down and kissing Reina firmly on the mouth before he left. Reina gasped as he left. Antonio was fighting a grin and Gertrude gave her a knowing smile.
Never Thought That Would Happen
After breakfast Reina went back to her room and took a shower. She had ensured she always had a closet full of clothes over here. She put on her clothes and walked out of her room drying her damp hair with a towel. As she walked into the kitchen she saw Demetrius in the backyard with tousled hair and she realized that he had taken a shower because just like her he had damp hair. She realized he was on the phone. As if he sensed her looking at him he turned around and looked into her eyes. Reina gasped. She realized his shirt was hanging open. Reina didn't realized she was gaping at him until Demetrius gave her a knowing smile. Why was he the only man that could make her feel this way? Reina turned and walked back to find Gertrude, who was outside painting. She enjoyed doing this when she wasn't working at the mansion. She sighed as she sat down on the bench beside her. "What is wrong, hija?" she asked. "Nothing" I replied.. "You were always a horrible liar, Reina" she said as she put her paintbrush down and gave me her undivided attention. "How is it that a man can evoke such feelings in you that you didn't even know you had?!" I asked her. "This is about Demetrius is it not?" she asked. "He can be such a-a a MAN! Ugh!" Reina threw her hands up in frustration. Gertrude only laughed. "I see. Sure it isn't love talking?" Reina felt her face go through different shades of red until it settled on bright red. She could tell her face was extremely red by the smile that Gertrude gave her. She scrambled off the bench and was heading for her room when the object of her thoughts stepped through the back door. She couldn't face him not with his shirt hanging open and she seeing a hint of the hair trailing down his navel and into his pants. Reina looked up in Demetrius's eyes and realized that they had darkened. He reached out and grabbed her by the wrist and yanked her towards the bedrooms. "W-where are we going?" Reina stuttered. Demetrius smiled down at her. He pulled her into her room and closed the door behind him. He pushed Reina up against the door and kissed her. God she was driving him crazy. He has never wanted a woman the way he wants her. Reina moaned when he undid her top. He smiled as he trailed kisses down her neck to her breast. Reina had to grab the doorknob to keep her balance. Demetrius's scent was intoxicating and it was driving her crazy. "D-Demetrius... W-we shouldn't do this. It is wrong" I stuttered. He smiled at me. "How can this be wrong when it feels so right, bella?" he asked as he unhooked Reina's bra and pulled one of her breasts into his mouth. That drove Reina over the edge. She had to bite her tongue not to moan. She started tasting blood in her mouth. "D-Demetrius stop" I told him. He sucked even harder. Reina
