False allies

Chapter 6

The back of Lily's grey cotton bodycon dress had moved about while they were travelling, so she straightened it out. It hung down to her midthigh, showing off her contours even when she wasn't wearing pantyhose. Her breasts were subtly defined by the clinging fabric, and the neckline was designed to be modest.

After taking a deep breath and a long sigh, she paid the taxi driver, gathered her luggage, and then entered the structure that would serve as her residence for the next two years. She experienced a quaking sensation all throughout her body as uneasiness began to spread. She was at a loss to explain why the mere presence of her best friend might bring on such intense feelings of unease in her.

As the elevator ascended to the third floor, she noticed that her heart was racing and that she was beginning to sweat. While she was climbing, she anxiously fussed over her appearance, making sure that her dress was in the correct position and that her hair was in its proper place. As the doors chimed open, a man with dark, wavy hair and hazel eyes came dangerously close to colliding with her. It appeared as though his eyelids were red, which is a classic sign of a hangover.

Oh, I'm so sorry to hear that. Obviously, I was thinking about you. He smiled at her to reassure her, and then stepped back to give her space to leave.

The response to that question was "It's OK." She gave a soft giggle and smiled back at him in reply.

He gave the impression that he was about to elaborate, but the elevator doors started closing before he could complete what he was saying. After placing his palm in front of the door, he entered the building.

"I'll see you later." He acknowledged her intelligence with a nod.

She couldn't help but smile a little more broadly, and her cheeks started to flush a little bit. It's likely that she appeared to be a complete moron with that crooked grin plastered across her face.

As Lily made her way back into the hallway, her nerves began to act up once more. Cameron is in room 307. She drew a long breath in and then continued her search until she found what she was looking for at the very bottom. She may have only been there for thirty seconds, but it seemed like she had been there for fifteen minutes as she stood there and stared at the door. When she finally reached the entrance, she thrust her hand forward and began to pound on the door.

It opened in an instant, and she looked into the blue eyes that she had always treasured but that were now beginning to fade. She had a little halt in her breathing and, as a result, forgot how to breathe in the correct way.

Even though Cameron was already taller than she was, it looked like he had put on a few more inches recently. Even though he had bulked out with some lean muscle, he maintained his slim build. He shaved off much of his hair and groomed it in an unconventional fashion.

"Hi." As her smile warmed her cheeks, they became flushed with colour.

After a momentary space between his lips, he quickly brought them back together in a tight seal. She noticed that his belly button was sticking out. Maybe he was experiencing the same level of nervousness as she was.

"Hey." He finally broke his silence and uttered some words as he cleared a path for her to enter the room.

As Lily entered the apartment, she was dragging her bag behind her as she took in the surroundings of the kitchen and living room. After the door closed with a satisfying click, she turned her attention to Cameron. While she was being hauled up against his chest, her mouth was forcefully closed. While he did this, his lips were firmly pressed up against hers, and his hand was entangled in her long hair.

He had one arm draped across her back, and it was sliding down her side to her behind, where he had a firm grasp on one of her cheeks. He was holding her in this position. She moaned into his lips, and in response, he inserted his tongue into the space between her mouth and his.

"Cameron!" Between each of their syllables, she expelled a short, piercing breath.

He did not stop moving forward. Instead, he slammed her up against the nearest wall and lifted her off the ground with both of his hands. She let out a groan as her legs became entangled with his and his firmness pressed against the slit in her dress.

"No underwear?" Cameron gave a sneaky grin while pursing her lips into a pout.

After giving her a peck on the cheek, he moved on to her chin and then her neck to give her a passionate kiss. She knelt down and helped him take off his underwear by unbuttoning it for him. He was able to extricate himself from the situation and charge her, successfully completing the mission. Both partners simultaneously let out yells of joy as their bodies mashed together in the throes of passion.

She dug her claws into his back as his fangs softly nipped at her neck, yet he continued to advance. He stopped a few inches above her collarbone, and then he began licking and sucking very softly on her flesh. He suctioned her more forcefully and more quickly than anyone else, leaving a permanent scar on her flesh.

Almost immediately, fissures manifested themselves in every single one of them. Cameron was completely engulfed by Lily, and Lily was clinging to Cameron for dear life on his shoulders. Their bodies did not make a single move, and their breathing was laboured the entire time. He laid his head on her shoulder as she relaxed against the wall and did the same thing.

I am so sorry for my absence. He lowered his voice and talked in a manner that was directed right at her throat.
