STAY AWAY FROM ZAC

Ava looked out the window after the car screeched to a halt. Needless to say, they had just arrived at their destination.

Throughout the journey, Ava barely looked at him as her eyes were outside on the road most of the time, ignoring the broad man. But his overwhelming presence wasn’t an easy thing to ignore.

Zac unfastened his seatbelt and then got down and went to open the door for Ava.

Ava gently took out a foot and the other followed. All this while, her eyes were busy raking around the gorgeous modern villa.

The next moment, Zac secured her hand in his and then started for the entrance.

Through the lobby, to the elevator, and going up, they arrived at an apartment and it was at that moment Ava knew that it was one of his penthouses.

“I thought you said we were going on a date,” Ava blurted her mind as her eyes found his.

Slowly, she was pulled against his hard frame, his flaming stare set upon her revealing cleavage.

“I can’t stand another man stealing a glance at this, Tinkerbell,” he drawled, his arms wrapping around her possessively.

Ava bit her lips as flutters erupted in her tummy. Of course, she had understood what he meant with his words.

A groan reverberated into Zac’s chest as he pulled out her lower lip with his thumb and touched it sensually.

“Stop doing that, Snow white. It makes me wanna do many things to you right now,” he said, his tone soft with emotions as his eyes raked over her face with such tenderness.

The intensity of his eyes held Ava speechless as she would like to ask him a particular question, which is; why does he take fancy to her?

And like that, the words tore from her lips openly, “What exactly do you like about me, Zac?”

“There are various kinds of women in your world and most of which are of your own class. I don’t know why_”

“I don’t know what I like so much about you, sweetheart,” Zac halted her in the mid-sentence, his one arm tight around her waist and another on her nape.

“But I just like you,” his husky whisper had her squirming in place as blood rushed to her cheeks and ran through her veins.

His nose brushing hers, his forehead pressed against hers, noses touching.

“It’s fine if you don’t like me as much as I do but please let me like you…only you and just you, Ava,”

Having that said, he lifted her chin with his finger and then pressed his lips against hers.

He’d kissed her before of course, but always with an element of self-control. This kiss had none of that, it was even a little clumsy as though it mattered terribly to him, as though he was investing everything in it.

Enthralled, Ava wound her arms around his neck and matched his passion.

In a swift movement, Zac lifted her up, all this while keeping his lips on hers as headed for the bedroom.

Reaching the room, he put her down on her feet.

The storm in his eyes had turned wild with his smoldering eyes roaming over her features. They watched her as if they had waited too long while his Adam's apple kept bobbling.

Overwhelmed by his overbearing temperament, Ava leaned over and covered her lips with his.

Zac took over immediately, gripping the back of her neck hard and plunging his tongue into her mouth. He guards her on the bed, his hands tight on her hips as they edged closer to the mattress.

Plunking onto the bed, his lips graze her neck and then found her ear. He pressed his forehead to her temple, sucking on her skin while his hands kneaded her breasts.

At this rate, Ava couldn’t help the muffled moan that escaped her lips, shutting her eyes.

He lifted her leg around his hip but kept the other on the bed and then took her dress over her head.

“I haven’t done it before,” she tumbled out, her chest heaving violently.

Surprise and something close to disappointment flashed across his face as he stared deeply into her eyes.

Thus, he proceeded to get off her but she stopped him by holding his elbow.

“As much as I want to do this with you right now, Tinker, I don’t want to do it without your consent,” his husky low voice took her breath.

“I want to do this with you, Zac,” bringing her hand to hold his cheek. “Just you,”

Right then, a brush of warm fingers glided down her bareback, erupting goosebumps across her skin as his mouth went to take hers again in a hot passionate kiss.

His fingers ran through her soft hair and his mouth sucked on her nipple, his tongue swirling around while she bucked against him.

For a long moment, he pressed kisses down the delicate line of her neck, pressing a kiss to the upper slopes of her breasts.

Furthermore, he slipped a finger to her clit-pushing her lacey panties for an entrance, and continued sucking her gently, gritting his teeth along-loving the sound that fell out of from her mouth.

Ava bite her lips to keep a mewl of exquisite agony from erupting, drowning in a sea of more pleasure than she could ever imagine existed.

Her hands flew to his neck holding him so close to her as she hummed out, wanting to feel his hardness already.

After a long moment of teasing, she heard the whisper of his zip being drawn down, his eyes never leaving hers.

His eyes glistened as he pulled her panties down and off her legs completely, dropping them to somewhere out of sight. She was utterly naked now.

After undoing his buttons, he took off his long sleeves and then reached for the drawer and grabbed a pack of condoms.

He had gotten them since the moment he had set his eyes on Ava.

Again, he kissed Ava. At some point, he was brutal, seeming to demand the very breath from her lungs.

In what felt like seconds, her breathing grew labored when a shaft of hot arousal went straight through her body.

The first thrust prompted a yelp from her mouth.

“Do you want me to stop?” his deep voice met her ear.

“No. Please, don’t,” she said in a ragged breath.

Slipping in and out gently and slowly, she succumbed to his hardness and gripped his bare back for support.

A romantic atmosphere settled in the room as they continued their lovemaking.

Ava woke up to the soft beams of morning glow that fell into the room.

Yawning softly, she rolled into the hard frame lying next to her and seeing this sleeping beauty, a wide grin spread across her face as she slowly sat upright and winced a little at the pain down there.

Staring at his impeccable face affectionately, she admired the way his eyelashes were thick and curly as if butterflies staying on them.

Prominent chin, strong chiseled jaws, and firm desirable lips. She slowly tugged away the strands of hair that were dancing around on his forehead and then plunge closer to press a wet peck there.

Getting off the bed and strolled to the closet, she opened it and inhaled the fragrance of his body in his clothes before grabbing a white shirt and wore it.

She had loved his shirt on her since the last time he offered it to her.

Moments later, she was in the kitchen, preparing a cocoa coffee since that was the only thing she could find in the kitchen.

She was almost done when she suddenly felt a strong presence in the doorway; she turned around with a smile touching her face, thinking that it was Zac but seeing this unfamiliar face, her smile faded away immediately.

“So, it is you. College girl,”

She watched the man glided into the kitchen with his arms crossed over his chest.

She stood there unmoved and watched his face closely as it dawned on her that she had once seen the face in Zac’s mansion.

He was also among those men who stood behind Zac that day- that same day the only lady among them challenged her of dining with Aurora.

Thinking of that lady, she would have to ask Zac about her later.

But what was this man doing here? How was he related to Zac?

“One thing I know for sure is that you’re only after Zac’s money and nothing more, isn’t it?” his nose scrunched up in disgust as his eyes raked around every inch of Ava’s body.

A frown set between Ava’s eyebrows, “Excuse me, Mister. I don’t know who you are and I don’t understand what you’re talking about,”

“Who I am doesn’t matter, you lowlife bitch. Stay away from Zac,” he said in a majestic manner, glaring coldly at her.

Ava’s hands balled into fists as she struggled to bring her temper under control.

She would understand if it was a woman sending her away but a man? Did he by chance have feelings for Zac?

“What are you doing here, Reid?”

His deep voice floated to where they were standing from the doorway.
