The Naughty

Raw Cravings

Lark::

I couldn't believe that Mom and Dad engaged me to some kind of heiress, and it pisses me off that I have to go and meet her. I don't like when someone meddles in my life, making me feel a bit sick to my stomach because there is just no way that I'm going to be able to accept it. I hate how this has turned out and I don't know why they are engaging me to someone who probably is power hungry and only wants me for the title.

Unfortunately, I have known too many people like that and there's no way that I'm going to be able to hold back for much longer. It makes me feel like shit when someone uses me because of my name and position, and it is partially the reason why I haven't been able to find a woman. I am very picky as well and there's no way that I'm going to just accept anyone, and I hope that they know this as well.

Sighing, I run my fingers through my hair as I wait for her to show up, seeing how she is already twenty minutes late. We're supposed to meet for dinner tonight to get to know one another and she just hasn't shown up. It did make me feel a little annoyed because there's no reason that she should have been annoyed about this. I don't know what to do about it, feeling a bit annoyed about what is going to happen next, but I couldn't be sure.

"Why is she so late?" I grumble to myself, looking at my phone since I had been given her number, "I hope she is okay."

I heard a murmur echo throughout the restaurant, and I looked up, wondering what had caught their attention. I go incredibly still when the most beautiful woman I have ever seen walks into the restaurant, handing her coat to the host. She is wearing a skin-tight red dress that clings to her body in every perfect way. Her long, straight brown hair falls straight down to her waist, and it looks like she has pretty blue eyes. She has sharp features, but she is very curvy, especially in the breast and hip area. I can't help but let my eyes roam her up and down, wondering how a beautiful woman like herself could be out here alone.

She looks over and I notice how her eyes lock with mine. I see a flash in her eyes, one that I'm not a hundred percent sure about but I couldn't be sure who she is coming for. She walks towards me, making my heart almost skip a beat as I stare at her, wondering what is going through her head right now. I couldn't be certain, but something was telling me that she was going to be mine one way or another. I guess it's fine since my ‘betrothed' didn't have the decency to even show up. I might as well have a little bit of fun.

"I'm guessing you are Lark." She murmurs in a sweet tone, making me realize that she knows precisely who I am, "Sorry, I just wasn't interested in coming at all so I'm not really sorry that I am late."

She settles across from me and I'm more than just a little surprised. I realized then who she is and I'm not disappointed, but it is pretty obvious that she doesn't want to be here. She crosses her leg over the other, giving me a glimpse of her long legs and silky thighs as she folds her arms across her chest. Just the sight of her is making my heart skip a beat and I couldn't be certain, but I just knew that she has to be mine.
