Levy - Three
My Friday was going great. No Redfox around to ruin my thought process. My lunch with my coworkers was eventful. I was enjoying my gummy worms, that Droy gave to me, as I walked down the block to my job. My phone rang.
"Hello?"
"Levy? Baby I was so worried about you!" Marie exclaimed.
I sighed. "Hi mom. I completely forgot to call you. When did you get back?" I asked.
"We landed a few hours ago. Have you traveled much so far?" I rolled my eyes. She was always asking me about my whereabouts.
"I'm fine. And I've only been to a few restaurants and such. Did Macao tell you about Bora?"
"Yes! I think you'll love him. He's a very charming man." A rich man.
"So I've heard."
"I hope you are excited. He plans to take you around some of the nicer parts of Chicago. Well, not as dangerous, per say."
"Don't ruin it for me."
"What were you doing in Arlington Heights?" She asked in that curious tone. I frowned.
"Do you have someone trailing me?" I raised my voice as I looked around for one of my stepdad's drivers. The street was too busy.
"Hi, Levy." Macao's voice came on the line. He sounded stressed.
"How did she know where I was?" I snapped. He sighed.
"Tracking your phone."
I felt a stormy anger rocket through me. I wanted to break the phone.
"Thanks for telling me. Now I have to buy a new one."
"Don't act like that. She is still very upset about what happened. She wants to protect you."
"From what? I've let it go! She should too!"
"She still feels like she let you down."
"You are spoiling her and she's thinks it's okay. Time to lean her towards her own lane. This needs to stop." I grumbled.
"I'm working things out. Push come to shove, you can be escorted anywhere outside of Chicago through Sebastian." He was the army guy that used to drive me around in high school and the beginning of college. I'm not surprised Macao kept him.
"I'm a grown woman." I grumbled.
"Yes but she thinks that you are still doing immature things like club hopping with Lucy—"
"You told her!" I exclaimed. No one heard me in the bustling crowd.
"I didn't have a choice. I wasn't gonna lie to her."
"This is what makes me not want to tell you anything anymore. I'm at work now, so I'll talk to you later. You need to put a lid on your wife." I breathed. He would if he could.
"I just don't want her upset, but I'll try. See ya soon, Levs." I hung up and was instantly pissed. I was ahead of everyone since they stayed back to talk a little while longer, so I walked into the building and headed for the vacant elevator. I stress-ate more of my candy, trying to calm down.
I felt an electric charge in the air and I instantly knew my day was gonna keep on spiraling.
Gajeel Redfox wore an all black three piece suit with a tie that matched his eyes. His silk shirt was as dark as his raven hair. He was staring at me as several men stood in front of him with their backs to me, speaking to him. His eyes locked on my frown and he straightened.
"I'll be just a minute." He said to them. I rushed to the elevators at this point.
"Hold it, Levy." His voice was overpowering. He was a man with such animal prowess that left my gut curling. I wanted to crawl to him like a lost dog as emotions flowed through me. I settled for freezing as he caught my elbow. He pulled me onto an elevator. Stay strong.
"Mr. Redfox." I mumbled. I watched as he pressed the top floor and my floor.
"I thought I told you to call me Gajeel." His voice was closer. I could feel air brushing my ear. The air between us felt like it was resonating from his very presence. Why did me of all people have to catch his attention right now? I didn't need another male ticking me off by ruining my day.
"Don't care right now." He grasped my chin gently, touching my lips with his thumb.
"You're upset. What's wrong?"
I didn't want his gentleness. I was utterly pissed with men in my life and I suddenly wanted to take it out on him. I wanted to push him away and pull his hair at the same time. My temper got the best of me.
"You."
He raised a hotly pierced brow. "Me?"
I straightened up and glared at him. "I'm not in the mood for you right now, Mr. Redfox."
He hid a stupid smirk. "I can get you in the mood, Little Levy."
The doors opened at the eleventh floor and I darted to exit. I could go up one flight of stairs.
"Hold up, Levy. We need to talk." He grabbed me by my elbow. A group took our elevator while we waited for the next one.
"Talk." I said. He pulled me behind him and halted the next elevator that came for us with a black key card looking thing. Once inside, he faced me. We were alone. Uh oh.
"You are still upset and we haven't discussed why." he started and stepped closer.
"Don't act interested in me. I'm certainly not interested in you." I needed him to back away.
"I am a man that gets what he wants one way or another. Don't be foolish. Do you really think a few words like that will stop me from advancing towards you?" He growled in my ear. I kept my eyes off of him. One of his hands reached up to stroke my chin again.
"You sound like a pampered crybaby. I'm not looking for anything at this point, so there is nothing to share. So what you're attractive? Doesn't mean I'm gonna do anything about it."
"Attraction isn't the right word for what is between us." He stayed in my personal space. I tried my best to stay calm.
"I see air." I bit out. He rolled his eyes.
"Levy…"
"Here's a tip. I'd rather know who I am fucking around with rather than just doing a complete stranger."
His eyes darkened. "I don't have the means nor the time to date."
"That makes the two of us. Glad we got that settled. I have work to do. I'm sure you do too." I reached for his black card, but he grabbed my hand. My eyes widened as he took the tip of my index finger into his mouth, licking off sugar.
"You and sweets make a dangerous combination."
I felt heat flush my skin again. He nipped my finger tip and leaned in close. His red eyes were all I saw. His lips curved into a sexy smirk.
"Romance isn't my specialty, but finding thousands of ways to make you come are. Lemme show you." Surprise froze my body as need instantly melted it. He grasped my hip as my legs shook slightly at the deep, promising tone in his voice. Holy shit.
"I'm guessing any other girl would drop their panties after hearing that line." I shakily dismissed him.
"Is that what you think?" He asked. I shivered.
"Doesn't matter. Not interested."
"No lies, Levy. Never lie." His eyes darkened again.
"Are we done? I have work." I breathed. His scent was manly and heavy, filling my senses.
"The faster we work this out, the faster we both get back to our jobs." He grumbled while unbuttoning his vest. I blushed openly.
"And what are we working out?"
"Your denial. I need to know what I have to do to get you beneath me. You don't want to date, but recognize that we both are attracted to each other. What do you want from me? Seduction? Attention? Believe me, you got it." I sucked in a breath when the hand on my back went lower then to the side. His hand rested at my hip.
"This is a major turnoff. Sex isn't supposed to be planned like some major deal. It's a respectful and personal kind of thing." I mumbled, trying to shake off the buzz of his hands. Gajeel smirked.
"Plans this weekend?"
"Taken."
"By whom?" His voice dropped again. I looked up into his wine red eyes and saw the blazing lust there.
"None of your business." I snapped. He shifted his massive body as he placed his hands on either sides of my head. I turned away.
"I don't bite Levy. Not unless you want me to." His mouth brushed behind my ear. I could feel his sharp teeth grazing the soft skin there. I pushed against his stone chest and he inched away to stare me down.
"I find your whole idea and approach to this rude and inconsiderate." Yet increasingly a hot turn on. The way he moved around my body felt needed and natural.
"I've told you before. You don't seem to be the type to taking on bull shit." He reminded me.
"I'd rather be seen as more than an inflatable fuck doll." I snapped at him.
His pierced eyebrows shot up in surprise. "Well, then."
"Are we done?" I rushed exasperated.
"We'll never be done." His voice deepened.
I turned to face the wall, knowing I couldn't face him anymore. My will was breaking. I gripped the railing with both hands when his body became flush with mine. I became more aware of the large bulge pressed up against my lower back and ass. I bit back the whorish moan that threatened to reveal itself.
"Feel that? No woman has ever done this to me so wildly. A mere glance and I knew I had to have you. Let me." He growled.
"Go find some willing girl to play with, fuck her until you pass out, then you should be over it by then." I said. His snarl shook me to my bones.
"Don't insult me again, Levy." Gajeel kissed my neck after placing a light nip.
His dark tone did more than warn me. My blood burned, craving this dark and dangerous man. I clenched my eyes shut tight, trying hard to smother my fiery lust that built with each kiss he teased onto my neck.
"Kiss me, Levy. At least give me that." He said, his strong hands turning me. I was almost fading for breath as he towered me, his dark hair falling past his shoulders.
"No." I murmured. He raised a hand to my back and pressed me against him so I felt his hard and impressive erection against my stomach. His other hand went to the back of my neck.
"Kiss me." His grip tightened gently. I shook with emotions and gave up.
My hands found his collar as his mouth sealed over mine. My purse slid from my shoulder to the floor as he took my mouth with a such a deep softness, I crumbled. He tasted of coffee and peppermints, and his overwhelming scent filled my senses. I clutched his shirt in my hands as he moved a hand to touch the exposed skin of my stomach, carefully moving my shirt up. Gasping into his mouth, his tongue slid in, tasting me in teasing licks.
With one of his hands brushing the side of my breasts, I groaned into him, and he growled in response. The hand on my waist moved down to press in between my skirt, no doubt feeling my soaked underwear. He lifted me and held me between the elevator wall and his body, pressing his hips into mine, making us both moan into our heavy kiss.
A loud shrill broke us apart, us both gasping and staring wide eyed. It was his phone. He checked it and growled. Sliding it back into his pocket, he ran his hands through his tousled mane.
"God damn it. In a fucking elevator!" His cheeks were flushed red with lust and anger.
I gasped for breath, feeling embarrassed and idiotic. I had just broke my own rule. Don't fuck with Gajeel Redfox. I fixed my skirt as Gajeel came back to me with a stony gaze. He yanked my shirt back down and adjusted it.
I swatted at his hands as they moved to my skirt. "Don't touch me."
"Be quiet. Fix your hair." His tone wasn't nearly as cold as his face, but there was a thick lust that matched that of his eyes. He stepped back and started the elevator. We both took a moment to calm down.
"Are you okay?" He asked, touching my arm softly.
I was aroused, embarrassed, and angry. Those definitely didn't mix well on me.
"How do I look, Gajeel?" I snapped at him. His jaw tightened.
"Fucking beautiful. Like you want to be fucked. Perfectly ready. So much that I'm tempted to take you to my office and lick you till you lose your voice screaming my name." He growled.
I chuckled. "Not surprised to hear you're still flirty."
The elevator approached my floor quickly. He handed me my forgotten bag.
"I will pick you up after work. Say 5?"
"Monday. Lunch." I shot back. It was a limited time. He chuckled an irregular sound before touching my cheek. The elevator doors dinged, letting me off.
"It is only a matter of time, Ms. McGarden. We will happen." He called after me. I rushed to my desk. A few people glanced at my blushing face, but I seemed to get away with it. Besides, they missed the real show.
"Hey, Levy. How was work?" Lucy asked while watching some show on the TV.
I wanted to be honest and tell her that I was felt up in the elevator. And that it was by an incredibly sexy man.
"Long. Just long."
"Oooooh. Take a seat." She muted her show and turned back to me. I plopped down, laying my head on her shoulder.
"Speak, Levy." Lucy giggled while playing with my hair.
"Gajeel wants to fuck. And it's hard to deny him. He so straightforward. I tried nipping it in the bud, but it ended with us talking about boundaries and crap." I told her the whole elevator story.
"This man is a God. Was he big?" Lucy stroked her chin.
"Yes, but not helping, Lu. And to make matters worse, we are to meet up on Monday for Lunch."
"Stand him up."
"He doesn't exactly look like a man to take that."
"You're bending your will to hissed it is adding to his ego. Ya need to knock him down a few pegs. Try not to think about him so much."
"I'll try. I feel like a teenager all over again." I whined. Lucy held back her giggles.
"Gajeel seems preoccupied with you. If he ain't serious about you, he will grow tired."
"And say he is serious. How do I handle that?"
"I would tap that." She said blankly. I swatted her flat stomach and she shrugged.
"Tomorrow I want to find hot guys to dance with and get drunk so I will wake up late. I don't feel like bringing any guys home." I breathed while standing.
"Well, I picked up your outfit for tomorrow. It's in your bedroom on the dresser. And no promises about bringing anyone home. And Marie called."
"I figured." I pecked her cheek before I went to find some solace. I was in my bathtub when my phone rang.
"Hello."
"Are you proud about bombarding my fucking thoughts?" I rumbling voice growled out.
"Gajeel?" I said confused.
"I'm incredibly hard right now thinking about you. I can still taste you, see you, feel your warm body against mine. I have been hard since. Imagine me walking around my fucking building with a hard on." His ragged voice growled into the phone. I could easily imagine it.
I was utterly shellshocked. The raspy voice warmed my skin and the deep undertone made my private parts ache. He had the perfect sex phone voice. I shook my head as he continued.
"My thoughts were wild today because of you. I couldn't focus at all. Lily thinks I'm fucking sick."
"Sick?"
"I haven't been sick in years. You're driving me crazy."
"You have a very clever way with words."
"And my mouth. You should let me show you."
"Have you found some bimbo to start your weekend?" I changed the subject. I was tempted to touch myself at the sound of his deep voice, but I held back. Not that I am worried he would care.
"No. I'm currently too occupied with finding ways to deal with an have me by the damn neck, Levy. State your demands."
"Oh, I got one. Maybe just leave me alone. How did you get my number?"
"I own both the buildings you stay and work, Levy. I can get whatever I want." His second sentence came out aggressively, almost more like a threat than a promise. My body shook with expectations.
"Just because you tried to seduce me in the elevator doesn't change anything."
"Something was crackling between us when I kissed you."
"It doesn't mean anything to me."
"What did I tell you about lying?" He snapped.
"Gajeel, I would rather enjoy my weekend than worry about you and your primal desires."
"You are already looking forward to seeing me again, Levy. We are attracted to each other and we know it. Why stop what is destined to happen?" Gajeel growled. I closed my eyes. The water around me sloshed as I stood up. I was too aroused.
"You have a rather sexy phone voice Gajeel, but I have an emergency date with my B.O.B." I teased.
I smirked as I heard him suck in a tight breath. There was a creak of a chair on his end. I laid wrapped in a towel on my bed at this point.
"You want to break me down, Levy. What do I have to do to talk you into an adventurous night with you, me, and your B.O.B?" Gajeel growled.
"Not gonna happen. Me and B.O.B have been together a while now. It's a mutual relationship, something you don't do. And when I'm finished, I know who has really been used. Good night, Gajeel." I hung up. My head thudded in the pillows as I took a slow breath. This game with him was exhilarating.
