Harem (of Men)- Chapter 2: Date With an Angel
Awakened by the awful white noise of her alarm clock, the brunette arose from her temporary slumber. She stretched with her arms above her head and yawned before glancing at the black alarm clock to shut it off. A minute ticked by as the illuminated green numbers changed from 9:59 to 10:00 a.m. It was then that Alyssa noticed the time and recalled the promised date with the white haired angel called Dante.
They had agreed to meet at 12 since neither had nothing special to do. This gave her plenty of time to eat breakfast, bathe, and still find an outfit for her date. Without a word, she dragged her thin tanned body out from beneath the blanket and made her way to the bathroom to do her daily things. Still in her black bra and panties, she raced down the stairs to the kitchen a little more energized than before.
In all honesty, she was really looking forward to spending time with him. It may have been seen as a little crush to some people. And to her it could be seen as that also, but it was refreshing to have a new romance. For two sorrowful months, Alyssa had been sulking over her ex lover, Chris. She believed it was a good enough time as any to move on. After all, she was the one who had initiated the end of the relationship they had.
After finishing up her meal, she washed her dish and cleaned up the kitchen before dashing back up the stairs to hear her cell phone going off. The number was unfamiliar to her eyes, but she answered anyway.
"Hey, babe. It's me. The 'Graceful' one." She could hear him chuckling on the other line.
It didn't take long for her to recognize the voice on the on the other end. Though it sounded a tad different from his voice face to face, she could tell by the hype in his voice that it was non other than Dante.
"H-Hello, Dante. I was just getting ready. What's up?" a pink tint spread across her cheeks as she plopped herself down onto her plush unmade bed.
"Well I'm not doing anything…Like literally sitting here doing nothing. So I was wondering if you would mind me coming early."
"Early? W-well if you don't mind waiting…I don't mind. Come on over." Alyssa was surprised and nervous. Even her speech pattern showed it.
"Be there in 5 minutes." With that, he ended the call.
She panicked and looked around for her robe for she was still only wearing her underwear. While she waited, instead of taking a shower she decided to pull out her clothing for today. She found a black cotton mini skirt that fit her figure quite nicely and a loose black cotton shirt with a panda face on the front and the back out. All she needed to find now were shoes. She had a lot of shoes…
She stood in her closet with her hand on her chin and her other on her waist thinking. Hearing the doorbell ring, she quickly made her way to the front door to buzz Dante in, nearly falling in the process. The door opened to the blinding light bounced off of his white tresses and his light was so bright it blinded Alyssa to the point she had to shield her eyes.
Dante wasn't sporting his usual red trench coat she saw him in. Instead, he was wearing a tight black v-neck with denim straight leg jeans. Though she liked the red trench coat for it let her eyes scan his upper bare torso, his skin tight top didn't leave much to the imagination either. Before she could catch her self eye raping him again she had to take in his facial features.
"Liking what you see, Alyssa?" He grinned with his hand in his front pockets.
A flustered Alyssa fumbled to open the door to allow him inside. She tightly tied her robe and invited him into the living room to wait. Though it seemed that Dante had no intention of waiting again.
"I didn't ask to come over early to sit and wait more. If that's what I intended to do I could have done that earlier."
Alyssa was at a loss for words. She didn't know what else to do. Though she had ideas, she was afraid to speak of them.
"Well what do you expect me to do?" She asked embarrassed.
"I'm pretty sure you know what to do." He smirked.
She quickly got the gist of what he wanted and allowed him to come upstairs to her bedroom. He sat on her bed as she grabbed her towel from a loveseat .
"Um…The remote to the television is over there. I'm going to take a quick shower and get ready."
As she explained this, Dante had already made himself comfortable as if it were his own home. He grabbed the remote and flipped on the television. Alyssa had closed the door behind her and soon running water was heard over the volume of soft moans, blocking out the sounds of a television program on a channel recently watched. Dante's blue eyes widened as he watched two busty females rubbing their body on a man with his privates exposed. He pressed the guide button to find that the channel was on a listing specifically made for hardcore porn.
"Pfft! Who'd have thought she'd be such an interesting girl. Watching porn. Naughty naughty." He chuckled as he flipped through the guide for something less provocative to watch.
Her shower only lasted for about 15 minutes and she stepped out of the steam filled shower dripping wet. She wrapped her towel around her petite body and looked around the bathroom for her clothes.
"Ugh…I left them in my bedroom…" She face palmed.
The voices of what resembled a animated cartoon made her eyes widen as she realized the last time she watched television was late last Friday night. Her stomach dropped and felt the need to cry. Not only did she have to face Dante in a towel, but she probably also had to face him ashamed of what he may have seen her watching.
"It's either now or later…" She sighed and cracked open the door a little.
Dante had been watching cartoons it seemed. She sighed from relief though was caught by his gaze. He smiled sweetly and beaconed her to come out.
"You left your clothes here." He told her.
"I-I know…"
"What's wrong? Don't be shy, silly. You're in a towel aren't you. Come out here."
Alyssa gathered up all of her courage and stepped onto the carpet of her bedroom out of the bathroom red faced. She walked over to her bed and reached for her clothes suddenly being pulled further onto the bed. A icy grasp pulled her onto the bed as she let out a yelp. The situation couldn't be anymore embarrassing with her lithe figure under his hard robust body.
"D-D-Dante! What are you-"
"Now now. I want you to answer a few questions for me~" Dante smiled.
"I won't do anything you don't want me to…" He slid his fingers through her hair as she slowly nodded with lust filled eyes.
"Tell me. Why is it that the television was turned on to a porn channel? Hmm?"
Alyssa gulped and was truthfully at a loss for words. The only thing she could do was tell him the truth. The awfully embarrassing truth. It wasn't something she did frequently. That night had just so happened to be one of those nights she…felt the need to pleasure herself.
"…T-Take a wild guess…" She said, averting her eyes from his crystals.
Tilt his heard with a mischievous grin, "Does it involve…touching yourself.~"
Alyssa could only nod her heard as her fantasies hovered over her. She could barely take it anymore and she could already feel herself getting moist despite the fact she had just taken a shower. As much as she would love for him to just devour her, her body- no…her heart wasn't ready. The beat in her chest was pounding like a drum. Could possibly heard from miles away.
"Alyssa can be a naughty girl? Who'd have thought?" He purred in her left ear.
"I-I'm not! I'm not like that." Her ears were tinted red as her bang covered her cheeks.
"It was a rare thing. J-Just because I masturbate doesn't mean I'm…you know…But you see, It's been a really long time since I've been held or touched like this. B-Before I met you, I pretty much had only myself. I just felt the need to be touched and held and kissed like in the romance novels. I-I'm not naughty. I'm just lonely…"
By this point, Alyssa had brought herself to nervous tears. She had no idea how Dante thought of her and it made her nervous. She didn't want to disappoint him with nonsense that wasn't true. Her trembling body was stilled by his sudden embrace.
"Don't cry. I was only asking. It wouldn't matter to me weather you did it often or not. It wasn't going to change my mind about me dating you. I only wished to know more about you." He shook his head and sat up. "There's no need to be embarrassed about it. From what I hear, it's a pretty normal thing."
Dante chuckled and helped her up from her position. "Who knows. Maybe someday we can try it together~?" The statement left Alyssa with dried tears and a hot body. She couldn't have her imagination going off onto that end now. She was naked, hot, and the one man she held an attraction to was sitting just inches away from her. It would be all too soon to lose control now.
"I'll wait for you down stairs and let you get dressed."
He left the room where Alyssa sat on her bet, her towel clinging to her now dry body for dear life. She curled into a ball and started rolling around on her bed, as giddy as a teenage school girl. The bed was only so big and of course not big enough for what she attempting, rolling right off the bed.
"Iiya!" She squealed, hitting the floor.
Bumps and bruises never stopped her before and she didn't plan on letting it stop her from today's events. She was up and ready within seconds and in the bathroom applying mascara and lip gloss. She bumped her hair quickly and was down the stairs within 16 minutes from the time Dante left the room.
"Ready?" He questioned, standing from the sofa.
Alyssa nodded her head. "What about your shoes? Going out barefoot today?" His question shocked her and she ran back upstairs, looking for something for her feet.
"Shoes. Shoes. Nope…No. Ew not with this outfit!" She looked through boxes and storage containers of shoes and boots. Just as she turned around she bumped into Dante face to broad chest. Rubbing her nose from the contact, she noticed the really hot pair of black cowboy boots. 'I had bought them a really long time ago back when I was shopping with Jill and Claire, my two best friends, in my home town. I had completely forgotten about them!' She remembered.
He gave her the boots and she slid them on her size 25.5 cm feet. "Okay. Now I'm ready!"
"Great. Let's ride." He said, tossing her a motorcycle helmet before he turned to leave the room. She followed closely behind him with her cell phone and house keys clipped onto her hip.
"W-Wait! A Motorcycle?" She shouted after him on their way out of the house.
Alyssa stood out front of her home next to a beautiful black motorcycle with gold on the handles that apparently belonged to Dante. On both sides of the bike there were blood red liquid like markings swiped across as if some sort of blood bending occurred. Then she took a closer look and realized that the markings weren't just scribbles, but was spelling something.
"Devil…May…-"
"Cry. Devil May Cry. It's the name of my business. Shop's not too far from here either." He said as he mounted the bike helmet less.
"You own a business? What kind?" Alyssa struggled to get the protective gear over her head, but eventually got it and jumped on behind Dante, hanging onto him.
"Nothing special really. Just demon hunting. I could honestly say the shop is suffering. Barely anybody calls for the help they need anymore. And I know there are more bastards out there waiting to be slaughtered by Dante's hands. Don't you think so, Alyssa?" He glanced behind him and though her face was covered, he could tell by her silence that it wasn't what she was expecting to hear.
Dante chuckled and revs up his vehicle, mentioning for Alyssa to hold on tight as he speeded off. Luckily, this wasn't the first time she had ridden a motorcycle. But the shock from earlier only increased the adrenaline coursing through her veins. With the sun beating down on the dry streets and the sweat practically filling the helmet with fog, it wasn't surprising that she was shivering from the cold wet touch on her skin.
What fills like they had been driving for 2 hours was really only 35 or so minutes. They pulled up to a cliff and grassy plain venue. Dante allowed Alyssa to slide off first and he followed, helping her out of the damp protection so she could see the lovely set up. There was nothing but trees and grass and the sun reaching it's evening arc. The sky' colors began to shift and change with clouds blending with the sky light paint.
The picnic set up didn't go unnoticed either. With it only a couple feet behind where they parked and a easy view of the waterfall in the distance, it brought a smile to her face. "Dante, you did all of this?" Alyssa asked.
"I had a little bit of help. I'm not the type to cook or fix things, but I did pick the place." He grinned happily, knowing he had the right mind set.
"How sweet of you. I didn't think you would go so far for some girl you just met. Honestly, I thought you would have just brought me to a restaurant or something easy. This is really cute!"
The two sat on the wide red and white picnic blanket. Dante pulled out drinks from the basket and asked Alyssa the flavor she would prefer. She grabbed the strawberry fruit drink and Dante pulled out containers that contained sandwiches and fruits and there was even cake!
"Wow. Trish sure did pack a lot- W-What is this! Is this some kind of joke?" Dante exclaimed shoving the basket away from him with red cheeks.
A curious Alyssa tilted her head and crawled over to the basket to look inside. She could hear as Dante began to object though it was a bit too late as she had already found the box of condoms. Her head tilted from side to side as she tried to figure out what they where.
"What is it?" She question, still staring at the box of Gro-man condoms.
"What. Never seen a box of condoms before?"
Alyssa's eyes widened and placed the box back into the basket, blood tainting her face a nice red from embarrassment. "Actually, I've never seen a condom before. Not that I can remember at least." Her eyes fluttered and she looked up to the sky in thought, trying to remember if she had ever seen a condom outside it's box before or even knew what they looked like.
"Whoa. So I'm guessing you've done it like That! You like it raw~? Or could it be that…" Dante stopped, biting his lip partway through his sentence not sure if he wanted to finish it.
"H-huh? N-Nooo! You've got it all wrong. I've never seen a condom before because I've never used them. I mean I don't NEED to use them! Ah Or rather I don't have to! Not now at least." After she finished speaking she turned and reached for a sandwich and nibbled nervously waiting for his reply. Dante had gotten awfully silent.
"Are you a virgin? Is that why?" He opened his drink to take a sip.
Alyssa nodded and even though her bangs shielded the view of her face, her ears were red. Dante wondered why she had such a hard time just saying so. It wasn't difficult to just say so when you're pretty much alone. Or was it. He never really understood those human feelings.
"There's no need to be so shy about it. Shouldn't you be proud? How old are you?"
"Twenty-three."
"Haha. You're still just a baby. Cute. It's interesting though. Not many women are virgins by the time they reach your age. You're a special one. Funny how the things that should bother you don't seem to at all. Not on the surface at least." He chugged down his drink after finishing off his sandwich.
"I'm not like everyone else. That much I already know." Alyssa' face had cooled off and felt full from her meal already.
"Why is it that a beautiful girl like yourself is still a virgin?"
Alyssa shrugged her shoulders, "Just haven't met the right guy to give it to. My virginity is something special. I don't want to be like those other girls and just toss it away to some guy I most likely won't be in a relationship with because of some petty little drama."
"Still…It's hard to believe. I mean with the rumors going around the town too."
"Rumors? What rumors?" Surprised and nervous eyes and ears were all focused on the snowy haired beauty.
"It's not just a rumor. It's a story. The one about young virgin females being a powerful boost to demons. Just having a pure girl as yourself around would probably boost my strength up 100x fold. Don't tell me you've never heard such stories."
"N-Now that I think about it, my father would tell me and my sister scary stories similar to that on Halloween. I always thought that was just a myth. Like the one about the Virgin Noelle who became the Venus of Grimilia Gaia. There is even the story that she is reincarnated 200 years after the death of the last."
"It's actually 100. And that story happens to be true. Believe it or not, I've met one of the reincarnations' spirits. Name was Danielle and whoo did she have a set o' knockers on her!" Dante laughed though pulled himself back together when he noticed that Alyssa was not amused.
"Her spirit…I've been meaning to ask you…This Demon Hunting business of yours. I know demon hunting is a pretty common thing here. I've actually been seeing more lately, coming out of the office for bounties. But what made you want to be demon hunter in the first place?" Alyssa went on and on about how dirty and tough killing demons could be and the risk of being cursed always hovering over your head, also the risk of death. It frightened her to think about it, but it could happen and she knew that all too well herself.
"Hmm…yeah you've told me a lot about yourself so I'll tell you a little secret. There may always be those risks and I happily take them 'cuz I damn sure love a challenge. Getting' my hands dirty ain't a problem either. Weather it be in black gruesome demons blood or the sins and hate that follow. I'm the fuckin' son of Sparda. Nothin' is going to take me down easily. They'd have to go to hell and back to even try and still even That won't get rid of me if you're just a weak ass human or a bitch ass mischievous sprite that can't keep a damned hand on reality. Hear this, I don't care if it's some stupid shit that has no business being messed with or taunted. If it's a demon from Hell, it's surely going back to where the fuck it came from." His voice had changed completely and parted speech became a lot more noticeable at his little outburst. He said a lot more than needed, but it seemed Alyssa didn't care. In fact, it looked as if it had just made her more attracted to him.
"So…You're the son of Sparda. The Demon knight, right? The one who went against a demon army? That Sparda?" Dante nodded with a little confident grin.
"…Daaayuuuuuummmmm…Wow So Then you're a demon. Not an angel. Haha-" The ground began to shake and rumbled, tipping over their empty bottles.
Dante stood and pulled the brunette up with him. His eyes narrowed, sensing Them nearby. The reapers began to appear simultaneously around the area, surrounding them. "Stay here. 'Gonna go handle some business!" He took out Ivory and Ebony and dashed into battle with the creatures, leaving Alyssa to gaze at his beauty in combat again.
Two demons attacked Dante, there sythe-like weapons swinging in motion towards his head. Catching them in time before they could make contact with whatever they aimed for, he held one and threw it with a boosted kick into another demon. The other in his other arm he simply took Ivory and shot the demon throwing away it's body. His acrobatic skills didn't disappoint Alyssa while she watch his muscles stretch and flex as he kicked and flipped and punch his way through the growing crowd.
It was then that Alyssa noticed that the ground was still shaking. Her date also started to disappear from her view, hidden inside the body of demons. Suddenly, all of the demons flew back and took damage from hitting one another in painful ways. She could see him again, but his black skintight shirt was no longer a shirt with the shreds limply peeling and flopping below his waist. It gave her the view of a lifetime. His abs. His Pecs. His biceps. She nearly fainted if not for the growing vibrations under her feet.
Still in battle, Dante has just nearly had enough. He didn't want to spend his date fighting off monsters with the benefit of showing her his upper body. He could happily do the later on his own time, though something hammered at his brain that this wasn't a coincidence.
"Kyaaaa!" Alyssa's scream shot through his ears, making him murder every demon in sight. It seemed never ending. The more he got rid of the more reappeared!
"Alyssa!" Grayish blue clay textured tentacles were wrapped around her waist as she hung in the air, struggling to escape. An even larger monster emerged from the depth of the grounded caves.
"Danteee! Help! AH! Watch it you perverted what-ever-you-are! I'm in a skirt you know!"
Sure enough, Dante had a full view of her pink lace underlings. He chuckled and a huge sword appeared before him allowing him to grab it and take stance before he went to attack. He ran as he dragged his blade at his side, running up the monsters' large body with it slicing him from the bottom up. The part of the body he had attacked started to slide down after Dante backflipped off. Noticing the side that the side Alyssa was captured in was that part of the body.
"Shit! Alyssa!" His blade vanished as he ran to capture the falling girl.
"A-Ah…Kyaaaa!" She soon stopped her screaming after being caught by the demon boy. Her heart pounding intensely from such fright and excitement. Her fear made her eyes swell with tears, but she tried to shake it off. She didn't want Dante to think she couldn't handle it, even though she couldn't.
"Ah! So the real bastard decides to come out and play, huh? How about we get a real party started this time!" He placed his date down next to him as a screeching creature with long claws came out from the much larger body to play.
He grabbed his two guns from their holsters and walked over to the edge of the cliff with a smirk as he shot his weapons. The monster shielded his attack with it's claws effortlessly still crying out the horrible notes. "What's wrong? Can't take the heat?" Dante mentioned with the realization that the demon was weak to the suns rays, explaining why it was hidden underground. Dante had figured that the demon sensed him nearby as he was hiding and didn't wan't to let his chance escape. Too bad for him though, he never had a chance in the first place.
"D-Dante be careful! Th-the ledge-" Alyssa began, but Dante waved his gun as he was still walking .
"I know. I know. Just watch your back, babe. I know what I'm doing."
The ground began to shake again and the cliff was splitting down. Alyssa had to take a few steps back and bumped into Dante' motorcycle in the process. The ground started to crumble beneath her feet as she ran, making her trip. It didn't look too good on her side of the cliff.
A/N: Hahaha see what I did there? I made a cliffhanger with Alyssa on a cliff. You get it? Yeah? No? Oh well whatever.
Thank you for reading. Please review and tell me what you think. any misspellings? I know there has to be something wrong in this
chapter that I didn't catch because I didn't use word check. (I think it's broken.) Also, don't worry. The next chapter will have some
kind of 'action' in it. ;)
