色悠悠影院

Something flashed in Sebastian's eyes at Elle's question. But she did not manage to read whatever it was that was in his eyes, as he had already led her to take a reverse turn immediately after that, followed by cross steps. The turn was just perfect… just as perfect as him. r

And before she could even realize it, she was smiling in awe at him, her eyes sparkled as they looked up into his own grey ones. She could not quite believe how their bodies were moving in such harmony. It was as if this was not the first time that they were dancing but the hundredth time. There seemed to be a tacit understanding every time either she or he looked at the other and their next move just flowed as though it had been done hundreds of times before.r

She could not believe how smooth every glide was. How graceful every movement they took and how natural and effortless every step and turns were. Perfection. That was the only word she could think about if one would ask her to describe it. They were pure perfection.r

Everyone who were present at the party except for the two of them, had long since disappeared. The question that was torn from her mouth earlier had been long forgotten. Abandoned in favor of experiencing more of this magical moment she was sharing with Sebastian. r

There was just the two of them dancing in the dark, under the stary night sky. r

Elle could not take her eyes off his. She had been effectively caught again by his gaze. She had underestimated the intimacy a dance could bring. She had so wrongly thought that this dance would be no different from the one she had shared with Elijah. r

But here she was now, caught under his spell. Though knowing, she was somehow not wanting to get out of it. She knew she would not be able to break free until he deemed that the dance was over. And the worse thing was that she did not want the dance to end yet. She was reluctant.r

The restrained dark emotions in his eyes seemed to be completely gone now. He was staring at her like nothing else in the world mattered but her. And as the seconds passed, his gaze just kept intensifying as it continued focusing on her. His grey eyes had taken on a luster so bright that it was impossible for her to draw her eyes away. The occasional touch of his breath against her cheek, and the closeness of their bodies brushing up against each other so intimately, all of it were only making her face and entire body heat up way beyond what she was expecting to. And suddenly, she was reminded of his touch when he had held her that night. r

"My… my question… you're not going to answer it?" she stammered out, forcing herself to ask him that question again. She wanted to erase the erotic scene that had just flashed in her mind. r

Another graceful turn before he drew her even closer, she was now literally pressed right up against him. r

Her eyes widened as she blushed harder, her heart skipping a beat. "Sebastian…" she called out. "Uhm… I think… people might…"r

"Might what?" he whispered so close in her ear. "Did you forget that I'm your husband, huh? Izabelle?" r

Oh Lord… why would you need to talk so huskily like that? That ticklish and velvety feeling brushing over the insides on her ears was just…r

"It seems as though leaving you on your own for a few days turned out to be a bad idea, isn't it? To think you'd even forget –" Sebastian's deep mellow voice continuously rumbled into her ears as he spoke. Elle was thrown for a loop as she felt as though he was suddenly being so relaxed around her, going as far as to tease her.r

"W-what are you saying? Who would forget someone like…" she stammered out, not realizing what she had revealed at first. But when she did, her voice had trailed off, blushing extra hard at the intoxicating and irresistible sight of that dimple that had flashed into being, gracing his face. r

"Someone like me?" he supplied, finishing her incomplete statement. The tone of voice somehow communicated to her the feeling of him being extremely pleased and satisfied with something. Narrowing her eyes just a fraction as she looked at him, she noticed that he now looked genuinely amused as his grey eyes appeared to be like they were gleaming. Why was he… no… he must just be acting right now, isn't he? It must be because people were still watching them. He must be doing all these just for the sake of keeping up the pretenses. Sebastian was amusedly teasing her and being so intimate with her like this, all because everyone's eyes were on them. r

Elle had somehow convinced herself. She understood and nodded, knowing that as husband and wife who had just gotten married not too long ago, he must have felt the need to keep up the fantasy that they were madly in love with each other.r

"You, cocky prince." She rode with the flow, chuckling quietly, but she had also really wanted to say that because she honestly thought that he really was. "You are actually right. I had almost forgotten that I am actually married for the last three days." r

His pleased smile immediately faded, causing her to blink in surprise at the sudden change in facial expressions. She had even felt a sudden cold breeze that sent a tiny shiver down her back. Err… Huh? What was with his current expression? Oh… wait! Is this another act that he was putting on? If so, she needed to be quick on the uptake and go with the flow. It would not be good for the both of them to be on different pages.r

"But it's a good thing that you came back tonight," she continued the teasing, grinning at him with a bright and wide smile. "Because if you had not, I might have even forgotten your name when I wake up tomorrow." r

Elle was expecting a cocky or arrogant retort from him, but surprisingly, it did not come even after she waited the normal time for him to respond. His expression had actually darkened, shocking and confusing her for real now. r

Oh dear… could it be that she had gone too far? But there was no way, right? She had not said anything wrong…r

Sebastian led her to another graceful turn and then suddenly the dance seemed to become even sexier. Like something incredibly sensual had suddenly sparked between them both.r

And then he finally spoke. "How naughty of you Izabelle… to say such a thing right into your husband's very face. You better prepare yourself well because from here on out I am going to…" he paused for a moment and when he continued, his voice was so deep and raspy, "…stick with you all night… and day until you will never be able to forget about the existence of your husband ever again. Be it awake or asleep."r
