MASTER OF TEASE

"I didn't mean to get mad." Krystal says as pull open the door to my room. I blink slowly to take in her appearance. She was still dressed in her running clothes, either she got back few minutes before I opened the door or she has been standing in front of my room debating the right time to open the door.

"Its okay. I actually forgot about it. All is fine now." I tell her honestly.

I was not one to keep things in the pages of my mind, waiting for the right opportunity to strike with it. I let them go easily, especially when it is about Krystal.

"Really?" Her eyes were wide and innocent as she watched me.

I nod in affirmation.

"I actually came to borrow the hair curler."

Levi liked beach waves, full beach waves, it took effort but it was worth it. More than half my bills have been paid just because I curled my hair.

Her eyes took in my attire slowly. I was dressed in a bath robe, fresh from the shower. I blinked at her innocently. She does not want to start a fight when she just came to apologize, so she mutely led me to her room. We were alike in the sense that we were very organizational. He things were organized in the same way mine was, in alphabetical order.

"Going somewhere?" She asked, testing the waters.

I perch at the edge of her dressing table.

"Yup, a birthday party. Remember Levi? Levi Left?"

She doesn't remember. I smile to myself. Good. She doesn't remember therefore she does not know.

"One of our customers. He invited me to his birthday party."

She nods and hands me the curler.

"When do you think you will be back?"

I don't know how to say, I might spend the night and come back tomorrow morning. So I say,

"Later I guess, why?"

She shrugged,

"It's been a while we did something together, just the two of us. I was wondering if we could go out."

I let a huge grin over take my features.

"Like what?" I dare her.

She blushes. She would never admit she wants to go out to clubbing until I say so. Never, her morals were too tight for that.

"Wherever you want."

"I will hold you to that. Maybe we can do it tomorrow, I have no idea how tiring this party might be."

"On a Monday?"

"Exactly. Don't wait up for me. I might come back really late. He is sending his driver to come pick me, he might tell him to drop me off as well."

I don't hear what she says next. I only start dressing up. I said an hour, if there is anything older guys are obsessed with is time keeping. He won't be a minute late in picking me up, I know from experience.

By the time my one hour is up, the girl in the mirror is the kind of hot that you will want to spend your life savings on. I was wearing this slip dress with a low neck, my cleavage was out in the open, for the cherry on top, I did not bother with a bra underneath.

The driver picks me up a block away from my apartment. I didn't want him to know my house, lest he shows up unexpected.

"You look amazing." Krystal compliments me just before I leave. I blow her a kiss with the hand not holding my clutch bag that contained my keys and phone, I contemplated bringing the ring, but I lock it up in my safe box, right where I keep everything I snatched before I sold them off, and walk down to the house I claimed was mine. Walking in heels was second nature as Gideon would bleed from every hole in his body if we didn't wear heels.

The drive to his house was short. Mostly because the driver drove like his tail was on fire, and the distance between my apartment and his huge mansion was about thirty minutes.

"Wow, every time I see you.. you manage to blow me away." Levi greeted me at the front door.

I smile at him. He was hot, he worked out a lot more than he left his home. He was handsome too but the ring guy was ten times hotter. Yup. I am in need of the distraction Levi should provide.

"Happy birthday."

He shakes his arm around my waist and pulled me close to him. His male scent stirred something inside me.

"Now I wish my birthday was everyday." He says into my ear, causing me to shiver in delight.

"Why?"

"Because you willingly agreed to come to my house."

He was right. I didn't like coming all the way out here. It made me sick with jealousy. Him and the property belonged to another woman. She owned all of it, I would only just stare wistfully, and leave before she can catch me on her property.

"Levi! You are hogging her to yourself again." One of his friend's, Abel, the sleaziest one of them all says.

Levi breathed hard.

"I only want to see you like this."

He was possessive. Too possessive intact. When he knows we will never fully belong to each other. Since he will not divorce his wife, for the fear if losing half of his properties.

"You know I'm only yours Levi. They can look. But they won't ever know how it feels." I whisper seductively.

He looks smug. Yup, let him continue to think that. I can already see my fat bank account balance. It makes everything worth it.

"Besides, I have something for you.. Later." I say with a wink. Then I sashay out of there. The key is to be a master of tease. And teasing was my forte.

Three of his friends were already sitting down, eating and laughing. They let out hoots after seeing me. I smile easily. They had easily replaced their chains and rings. With the number of beer cans on the table.. They won't even know when they disappear.
