“And that’s what you’ve been trying to do?” Danielle hesitantly asked, swallowing at the lump that seemed to forming her throat.

Gareth nodded his head, “Yes, but very unsuccessfully.”

Danielle’s head dropped again, her gaze taking in the contents of her glass, before mumbling, “Sorry.”

“Don’t be,” Gareth quickly replied placing his one hand on hers, causing her gaze to lift again. “I can understand how someone as beautiful could be weary of attention, there are lots of jerks out there who would not appreciate the person below the surface.” He continued lightly stroking the back of hr palm with his thumb, his attentions sensing tingles up her arm. Danielle felt her heart speed up at that, she had rarely been called beautiful.

She smiled slightly, “Now you’re just being nice.”

“Not in the least, I was taken the moment I saw you.” Gareth professed.

“And now you’re going to claim that unlike the other here you are not just out to bed me.” Danielle returned, tilting her head slightly.

“All men are like that, and I’m no different. When I see a desirable woman I am also stirred, but unlike the others here, I’m not out to score, or keep score.”

“But you want to sleep with me?” Danielle stated rather than asked.

She watched as he remained silent for a moment, before finally nodding his head slightly, “I’ll be honest in stating that yes I do want to.”

“And afterwards?” Danielle demanded.

“In all likelihood I would want to again.” he professed, closing his hand over hers, squeezing it slightly. Then tilted his head before nodding it, smiling slightly. “I think I know why you’re as reluctant.”

“Oh really?” She challenged him.

“Some idiot broadcast to the world what happened in the bedroom, he might even have embellished it some, and with you being a private person, you did not appreciate it.”

Danielle’s eyes enlarged slightly at that, before nodding her head slightly.

“We’re not all like that you know,” he added lowly, picking up her hand from where it rested on the bar, turning it over to trace his fingers over the reachable, delicate skin of her inner forearm, his gentle touch causing gooseflesh to rise on her skin.

“I know.” She whispered lowly in return.

“So why are you here?’ He lowly asked,

“Alondra is getting over her recent break up.” Danielle whispered his attentions awaking her body’s response, as she looked at him, his eyes already darkening with desire. His fingers moving to her palm, then brushing over her fingers. 

“She came to the right place if she’s not looking for anything serious, there is at least half a dozen guys here that wouldn’t mind getting a piece of her.” Gareth softly returned,

“And you?” she softly asked

“I want you.” he husked before lacing their fingers, there’s something about you that intrigues me.”

“Really?” Danielle uncertainly gasped, he warm palm pushing against hers, their fingers intimately entwined, she could already picture them similarly entwined in bed.

“Yes,” he replied, lifting her hand to place a soft kiss on it.

“Why not just be obvious and say you want to take me to bed?” she asked looking at him again, swallowing when he licked his lips.

“And that would work?” He husked in return.

“Better than trying to be nice about it or saying things you don’t really mean.” She returned pulling her hand from his, causing him to pull back slightly.

“So you would go to bed with me if I blatantly asked you to, but being nice about it you’ll resist?” he asked shaking his head slightly.

“I prefer honest men. That way I know where I stand.” Danielle returned lifting her glass to her lips.  

“Ah! And another secret is revealed.” Gareth said lifting his own glass, his words caused Danielle to look at him in question. “Not only was he inconsiderate, he was a liar as well.” Gareth professed, then noted her look, before returning his glass on the bar top. “Okay I’ll be honest with you.” He said turning towards her once again taking her hand, “I want to take you to bed, and I won’t talk about it to anyone else. However, I do want to wrap it up in sensuality, because I want you to enjoy it not just lie there for God and Country.”

Danielle looked at him for a moment before moving from her seat. Gareth let go of her hand, and looked at her in surprise when she reached for his, “Come.”

“Now?” Gareth questioned in surprise, “You would do that?” he added stunned when she pulled him along.

“I like you.” She flatly stated, and watched him signal something to Lucas, then demanding, “What was that for?”

“To tell him your friend is available.” Gareth answered, turning his attention back to her, “I handle rejection a lot better than he does.”

Danielle led Gareth to their room, opening the door and switching on the light, before making for the bed and dropping the keys on the bedside table. 

Gareth looked about the room, his gaze landing on the queen size bed, then looked at her in question, hesitation in his voice evident. “You two share a bed?”

“Yes,” Danielle returned shrugging her shoulders, “why is that so strange?” before looking at him.

“So the rumor’s true?” he asked for a moment, shifting slightly on his feet.

“What rumor?” Danielle asked, sitting down on the bed.

Gareth looked about the room for a moment, before clearing his throat. “Two beautiful people on holiday sharing a room and a bed,” he started, halting for a moment to gauge her response, before continuing, ”You sure she won’t mind that I’m here?”

Danielle tipped her head and looked at him before realization struck her causing her to bolt up from the bed, “Oh God! No! Its nothing like that,” she exclaimed before rambling, “we’re not that kind of friends, the holiday was booked before her and Andrew split up, they were supposed to come together.”

Gareth visibly relaxed at that, “So she’s not going to come storming in here demanding explanations.”

“No.” Danielle replied shaking her head, “but she might enjoy watching.”

“Okay.” Gareth carefully replied, then moved closer to her, coming to stand in front of her. Danielle’s heart started racing, her stomach churning, unable to believe that she was actually going to do this.

“Just relax, I’ve got you.” He softly said reaching out to take her hand.

“You got any?” She awkwardly asked.

“This lodge stocks plenty, there should be in the drawer.” he answered lifting her hand to his lips. “And I have no aversion to using it.” Danielle simply nodded her head in response as he stepped closer.

“Now just relax and close your eyes,” he whispered against her lips. His hands reached up to take hold of the sides of her neck, his thumbs gently stroking the skin, as he lowered his lips to hers, lightly brushing them.

Danielle felt her legs quake at the tenderness of his actions, having expected the frenzied tugging at clothes. His tongue lightly traced her lips and she opened in response, allowing him to deepen their kiss. Her knees for a moment weakening as his hands moved down and around her waist, pulling her to him. His other hand capturing the back of her neck as he deepened the kiss, and where in the past she had found passionate kisses overwhelming, his seemed to coax something from deep inside her.

Her hands moved of their own accord, her fingers threading through his hair as their kiss progressed, before finally jerking apart, both breathing hard. His hand started wandering over her body, “God you feel even better than I imagined,” he husked into her neck as his hand slipped under her sweater, rubbing against the fabric of her top. He pushed their lower bodies closer, thrusting into her slightly, letting her to feel his already burgeoning erection. “I want to get you out of these,” he husked, tugging slightly at her clothes, “But I’m not sure I’ll manage without ripping them all off,” he husked against her neck.

Danielle moved her hands to his chest, breathing in deeply before looking at him, “Why don’t you sit down.” she said, pushing him slightly towards the bed.

“And let go of you,” he moaned, “Could you ask something less difficult.” he husked making to pull her closer.

“Step back and loose some clothes,” she firmly commanded.

Her words, the firmness in her voice had him pull back slightly, to look at her. “You a Dom in disguise?” he asked

“I might be.” She retuned pulling back slightly.

“Oh God I’m gonna die a happy man tonight.” Gareth huskily replied, pulling back slightly.

“Oh quit the dramatics!” Danielle commanded, allowing this new and foreign part of her to take control. Watching as he stepped back and started stripping his clothes.

“How far?” Hh asked when he had shrugged his outer clothes.

“All of it.” Danielle commanded, taking in the sight of his well-toned body, the dusting of hair on his chest.

“Yes ma-am.” He answered stripping down, causing Danielle to gasp when she saw the entirety of him. “Where do you want me?” he asked once done, his erection rising proudly from his loins.

“Right there will do.” she replied as she approached him, brushing her hand over her chest. The heat of his skin almost scorching her fingertips. A sense of power filled her, the sight of a man so aroused, wanting her, gave her fortitude, liberating her, allowing her to live out a long suppressed fantasy.

She walked around him, slowly, her hand brushing along his chest over his arm and around to his back, as she looked him over, noting how he clenched his fists at her action, before she gripped his buttocks with both hands squeezing them. “Hmm, well developed, nice and firm with good hips.” she appraised him massaging his buttocks slightly, before continued around him, coming to a standstill in front of him. Her hand traced down his chest towards his hardened manhood, his breath hitched as her hand wrapped around it, whilst she looked into his eyes. Watching as his closed and a low moan came from his lips. Leaving her feeling heady with power, that familiar warm sensation between her legs building as she stoked him. “Nice and hard, I could find use for this.” she husked, before letting go of it, her hands slipping even lower cupping his testis. “A good size,” she said as he practically whimpered, “They’ll do nicely.” She concluded before stepping back from him. Gareth's eyes shot open and he looked at her, almost in distress, his hands reaching towards her.

“Ah-Uh,” She firmly spoke up causing him to drop his hands, “Touch yourself.” She commanded, smiling slightly shocked expression. He looked at her for a moment, “Do I need to repeat myself?” she asked, firmly. He reached for his manhood, his hand wrapping around it, griping it. A gasping moan escaped his lips, as his hand started moving, she looked at him as he tried to keep his eyes for closing completely, his head falling back slightly as his hand started moving more vigorously. 

“No!” she commanded, causing his head to jerk, his eyes jolting open to look at her. “Softly, tease it.” she commanded as she started taking off her clothes, the warming sensations between her legs having built up to a throbbing, the heat intensifying. His grip loosened slightly, as he looked at her. It was when she drew off her top, exposing her lace-encased breasts to him that she saw him once again tighten his grip on himself.

“Oh God, lace, I love a woman in lace.” he husked.

“Stop!” Danielle commanded when he started increasing his pace.

“Can’t… you’re… oh god… Could come right here and be happy.” He gasped.

“Stop now or leave.” She firmly commanded. She watched his eyes enlarge moments before his hand let go of his manhood. His jaw and hands clenching as he hissed in frustration.

“Good.” she encouraged nodding her head, “Now lie on the bed.” she firmly commanded said whilst unfastening her denims, making a show of removing them, remaining only in her lace underwear. Before slowly approaching the bed, cupping her breasts, watching his response to her approach, seeing the jolt of his manhood as she crawled onto the bed, her hand pressing against his chest when he rose to reach for her. “What do you want?” She asked huskily, “and remember, honesty is best.”

“I want you.” He croakily replied.

Danielle looked at his body, then shook her head, before firmly stating, her voice husky, “That’s not what your body’s telling me.”

“What!” Gareth exclaimed, moaning as her hand moved down his chest, her fingers playing slightly with the hair there. 

She moved closer to him, before whispering in he ear, “Your body wants to fuck.” Then pulled back slightly at his grunt, “so don’t lie to me.”

Gareth’s eyes enlarged at that, groaning slightly as he nodded his head.

“Although I don’t want that quite yet.” She continued her hands capturing his hen they reached for her. His voice strained when he grunted, “what do you want?”

“For you to touch
me.
” she returned bringing his hands to her breast, the skin under his hands immediately tingling, the throbbing in her core intensifying.

“Oh God Please.” he almost begged as he cupped her breasts, still encased in their lace confines, brushing his thumbs over her already hardened nipples. Rising from his prone position, his hand slipped behind her neck, puling her closer claiming her lips in a hard kiss. Danielle stroked her hands dawn his body purposely missing his manhood smiling into his kiss as he groaned in frustration. Then before she knew what happened, she found herself flipped onto her back, his hands tugging the lace from her breasts, moments before his lips latching onto the one nipple, sucking it hard, drawing a gasp from her as a sharp sensation resulted in a tugging low in her groin. Her hands grasped his head, holding him in place as her back arched up and into him, moaning her appreciation. His one hand pushed behind her, unclasping her bra, working it off as he changed sides, tossing it into the distance. His hands ran fervently over her skin, appraisingly as he nuzzled her breast.
