Charming The Warriors (The Charmer) (7 page)

             
“Yeah you know all sniffy. When Den came up stairs to see if I was ok, he was sniffing the room like you were just doing.”

             
“Really, your room.” He says, but not as a question, and for some unknown reason it has him fuming, I can tell by the growling he is desperately trying to suppress.

             
Sallack changes the subject quickly. The more I relax and just talk to him as if he is not a sex God, the more confident I became. I notice several discreet eyes on Sallack and me throughout the evening.

A group of
men starts raising their voice at another small group of men that are seated across the bar; Sallack’s head whips round with speed, as he releases a growl. The men shouting lock eyes with Sallack and go dead quiet, casting their eyes to the floor, afraid! He turns to meet my gaze, taking my hand in his giving me a stunning smile. What was that about?

             
At around 11:30 Ruk walks into the bar, Sallack’s good friend, and my new co-boss along with Julian. He comes to the table to greet us with a charming smile.

             
“Zara, how are you? You look gorgeous,” He says light-heartedly. His remark gets a sneer from Sallack and a laugh from me.

             
“Hi Ruk, I’m good thanks. It’s good to see you.”

I can see that Ruk wants to speak in private so I help him out,

              “Sallack thank you for the drinks and company, it’s getting late so I’m going to see Den for a Minute then get to bed.”

I stand up from the chair, just as Sallack stands wi
th me. I kiss his cheek tenderly. He takes my chin in his hand, moving his lips to my ear whispering,

             
“I enjoyed being alone with you, will you see me tomorrow?” The hunger in his voice, makes it hard for me to stand, Sallack is perfection. I need to be careful; I could fall in love with him, if I haven’t already! I’d never believed in love at first sight until finding Sallack.

             
“Definitely, I would love that. Bye Sallack,” I turn to face Ruk, “It was nice to see you again Ruk.”

             
As I make my way to Den, a man turns around accidentally bumping into me, his face drops when he looks at me.

             
“Shit, I’m sorry. I wasn’t looking where I was going,” He tells me a little nervously with his eyes searching behind my back. I automatically look behind me, my gaze landing on Sallack and Ruk, staring daggers at the man! I frown at them and turn back to the man

             
“No that’s ok, it was an accident.” I say smiling at him. He gives me a confused look in return.

Why is everyone so scared of Sallack!
The only scary he is, is scarily sexy, no one should be this hot!

             
“What are you doing?” Sallack asks the man in front of me making me jump.

W
here did he come from and how could he have moved so fast?

             
“Im sorry Sallack I didn’t see her,” The man says almost desperately.

             
“Open your fucking eyes next time!”

             
The man walks back across the bar to his table of friends who also look scared.

             
“That was harsh. He was right, it was an accident!”

             
“I was worried for you.” He tells me still looking angry as he runs his hands through his hair while looking around the room nervously as if someone is about to jump me. Wow I feel guilty he obviously thought I was in some kind of trouble.

             
“No I’m sorry, thank you for looking out for me but honestly it was an accident.”

He nods his head to me in acknowledgment. He
is looking around at the men who have stopped to watch the whole drama. He lets a growl escape as his arm laces around my waist and gives the men a killer look; the men quickly bow down their heads away from his glare.

             
“Are you ok Sallack?” I ask worried. For some reason I feel like I need to take care of him, let him know I am safe, just like I have had to do many times before with Den.

             
“Yeah,” He tells me, but I do not believe him, I also don’t understand why he is so noticeably angry. I pull him to my body as I hold him close to me, leaning up and placing a tender kiss on his lips automatically relaxing him. He stops looking at the men and looks down at me with a stunning smile, making me smile in return.

             
“Beautiful.” He tells me stroking the back of his fingers down my cheek. I squeeze him a little tighter, feeling so much desire towards him. He is everything I could ever want in a man, and I want this man.

             
“Everything ok?” Ruk asks me as he stands beside us.

Sallack growls at him as if he is annoyed he interrupted
us.

             
“Yes thanks Ruk, see you soon Sallack,” I tell him gazing into his stunning eyes. He puts a hand behind my head and kisses me properly how I have wanted him to all night. I don’t even care that we are in a bar full of people, because I have never shared a kiss with a man that I find so attractive.

             
“Very soon beautiful” He says on my lips.

              I find Den at a table close to the bar. He is with a group of the men from earlier and two girls, who look like they are in heaven surrounded by such handsome men.

             
“Den I’m to bed I’ll see you in a bit ok?”

He looks up at me and pulls me in to his lap, making me
scream, as I wasn’t expecting it.

             
“Hey are you drunk?” I ask him through a laugh.

The look in his eyes is saying yes but he is shaking his head ‘no’.

              “Umm of course you’re not.”

He is so
cute; I love him when he’s drunk.

             
“Hey have a drink with us? I have been telling the guys about our little adventure,” He asks me.

I nod
my head while taking the chair of one of the men who just left to go to the bar. Den introduces me to his friends by pointing, saying their names starting by the man next to me

             
“Bear, Trent, Sam, Dom you already met, Kim, Michel and Candy,” He winks at Candy but she misses it as she is too busy killing me with her eyes.

             
“Guys this is my girl Zara,” He tells them with pride.

The men give me ‘Hello’ and nodding
their heads all with friendly smiles, whilst the girls stick up their noses, charming! I raise an eyebrow at the one on Den’s arm, which she returns with attitude.

             
“Nice to meet you all, I’m not good with names like Den, so sorry if I forget” The man next to me, Bear speaks,             

             
“That’s ok sweetheart, we’re just happy to meet you. You staying for a drink?” He asks with a devilish smile.

I
recognize some of these men as Sallack’s friends from earlier; they are like models for a dark and dangerous magazine, now that, I would definitely buy.

             
“I'll join you for one; I’m just going to the ladies quickly,”

I leave the table with the feel of a few pairs of eyes on my bottom.

             
Once I have used the bathroom, I go to open the restroom door to head back to the table, when I hear Sallack and Ruk’s hushed voices.

             
“…Zara, it was definitely around her. There no way around it.” That was Sallack’s sexy deep growl.

             
“We need to go keep our eyes and ears open. What’s going on? This is the second time in 2 nights that the prick has been sniffing round,” Ruk replies.

             
“If I find out it was anything to do with …”

Sallack stops talking, sniffs the
air, and spins around facing the restroom door.
Shit,
they caught me! I do what any other woman would do in this situation and run back into the toilet shutting the door. What was all that about what was around me the smell! Moreover, what was he going to say? Oh and then there’s the ‘Prick’, who is a prick?

             
I decide it is time to get it together, I wash my hands again before I open the door so I can wipe them on my jeans to keep my hands busy as I’m nervous as anything. Shit still there! I keep my head down and give a glance in their direction.

             
“Hey,” I say, speaking lowly, not wanting to draw to much attention.

             
“Zara can I have a word please?”

Oh, crap this is where he asks me to stop snooping.

              “Yeah.”

We are in the hall way where the men’s and woman’s toilets are, so he guilds me to
his office taking my hand in his.

             
“Everything ok,” I ask as he is frowning.

             
“Ok I’m going. See you Zara,” Ruk says walking away, taking Sallack’s glare as a hint and Shutting the door behind him.

             
“I have got to go away for a few days, I wanted to let you know I’d be leaving in the morning, and want to wish you luck for the move into your new home. Ruk and Julian will be around if you need them for anything.”

Oh, I wasn’t expecting that, I
can’t help but feel sad at the thought of not seeing him for a while. I need to get a grip I have only known the man 2 days.

             
“Oh ok, well I’ll see you when you get back then…well if I see you in the bar or whatever.”

Oh Jesus
I’m letting my mouth run without thinking. His gaze turns hungry; the look in his eyes makes my heart skip a beat. He laces his arms around my waist pulling me into him. He is sitting on the edge of his desk as he opens his legs for me, pulling me in so we are chest to chest. My heart is thundering, as his glorious eyes seem to look straight into my soul.

             
“Zara when I get back I would like to spend more time with you? I like you
allot
,” He growls out the last word.

I would reply if my mind and eyes were
not so fixated on his plump lips.

I lean into him slowly to give him time to pull away. He puts his strong hand around my neck and pulls my face to
his; I wrap my arms around his body as our lips touch. Excitement spiking my senses. Sallack’s other hand glides to my backside, lightly caressing me as I let a moan slip, just as Sallack growls. Our tongues are making love and I lose all control to the burning passion I feel for him. I climb up onto his lap straddling him, that’s when I feel how hard he is, for me! A moan slips my lips again as he stands up with me still attached to him, sitting me on the table still kissing me. Sallack pulls his top over his head, barely breaking the kiss. Oh my God, he has the body of a warrior.

Sallack leans on me so that
I’m lying on his desk as I wrap my legs around his waist, while he presses himself into me.

             
Bang bang bang

No!
Who the hell is that? Opening my eyes, I’m met by brilliant glowing gold ones. I inhale a deep breath, taking in the beauty of this man on top of me, that I want so desperately.

             
Bang bang bang

             
“
Fuck off,” Sallack shouts and smiles down at me. I start laughing and he joins in with me.

             
“Sallack come on we have things to do!”

             
“Ruk I'll be out in a Minute!”

Sallack slowly slides of
f me, taking my hand to help me to stand.

             
“I’m sorry Zara, I couldn’t help myself. You are truly stunning.”

             
“Don’t be sorry, I want you to, but I want you to know this is not something I do.”

It really isn’t, but when
his eyes touch upon me I lose all control. I want to be with him in every way. What a strange feeling it is too, I have never felt this strongly to another man, bar Den.

             
“Ah beautiful, never would I think badly of you for showing me your desire.”

Here comes
the blush! I divert my gaze from his intense eyes, looking at his chest instead. Oh, he has got the most perfect body I have ever seen. His abs are so pronounced, ahh kill me now! I’m in trouble. I nod my head to him as he takes my chin in his big warm hand.

             
“I have to go, I wish I didn’t. Please say your see me as soon as I’m back?” He places a sweet loving kiss on my lips.
