Love’n’Lust

The car had become silent after Ben started to drive again. Still resting her head on the window glass, Belle noticed that the buildings by the road sides weren’t the ones she usually saw on her way home.

“Where are we going?” She decided to ask.

“My apartment.”

“Your apartment?” She asked, not just because he was taking her to his apartment and didn’t mention it earlier but because he said ‘his apartment’. “You stay in an apartment?”

“Sometimes, yes.”

“Why?”

“It’s quiet.” She heard him say.”I want to be with you alone, no disturbances.” He took a turn on the road and reeled into a block where all the buildings looked the same.

“Here?” She asked if the apartment was around.

“Yes.” He stopped the car in front of one of the similar buildings and got down. Belle was still looking around so she didn’t see him walk over to her side. He opened the door with a smile.

Belle got down from the car, still looking around. The environment was beautiful with the flower bushes lined up in equal distances across each house. It was a quiet place unlike where she stayed with her cousin Brie and Cherry, that place was only quiet at night.

“Come,” he took her hand and headed inside.

“Why does every house look the same?” Belle asked just out of cheer curiousness.”Is it government owned? The government usually build housing estates like these.”© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

“No, it’s mine.” She heard him say.

“This building?” She asked if he owned the building they just entered. They were about to get into an elevator, her shared apartment with Brie and Cherry didn’t have an elevator.

“The whole place,” he led her into the empty elevator and watched it’s door close.

“The whole place, like the whole uniform building?”

“Yes.” He looked at her wondering if she was surprised because he didn’t expect her to be.”You are not surprised, are you?” He asked her.

“You are right, I shouldn’t be surprised, I mean… it’s you, it’s you; Ben Larkson, of course you can own this whole place.” She said, chuckling at how unbelieving and skeptical she was just now.

“Do you like this place?” He stood next to her with both his hands in his pocket while she clutched on to the strap of her handbag.

“Yeah, it’s beautiful.” She replied her honest thought.

“Do you want to live here?” Belle turned to him when he asked that.

“What are you asking?”

“Do you want to stay here? It’s closer to your workplace.” He told her before taking her hand, the elevator door had opened.

“With you?” She asked him as they walked out the elevator because he had earlier said he stayed in one of the apartments.

“No, just by yourself, I don’t stay here much, I only come here when I want to be alone.”

“Oh … but you are here with me, not alone.” She said and noticed a smile creep up his face.

He didn’t say anything more till they got to one of the spaced doors. Still holding her hand with his left hand, he took out a card from his pocket with his right hand.

“I come here when I want to be alone Belle and only when I’m in a sour mood, do I want to be alone.”He swiped the card over the door.

“So why am I here with you then?”

“For some reason, I believe you will make me calm Belle. Your presence takes me to another world, I want to feel your skin against mine.” His every words that fell on Belle’s ears gave her chills.  She wasn’t scared, it was a good kind of chill, one that came with excitement but also anxiousness.

When they had both entered the apartment, Belle’s eyes quickly swept around her. The place was simple, there was a glass table situated in the middle of a group of three sofas in the living room where she stood.

She looked left and there was a dining room with a similar glass table but it was higher to fit with the four tall dining chairs around it. She thought there must be a kitchen through the door she could see in the dining room.

It was very noticable that Ben didn’t stay here much like he said. The place had no welcoming feeling. She heard Ben close the door and it brought her out of her thoughts.

He walked past her and towards the right one of the two doors which adjoined the rooms to the living room. She didn’t know if to go with him or not so she just stood there but after a while she went to the room.

She didn’t see him there but she saw his watch and ring arranged on the bedside table like the first time she met him in that hotel room. He walked out of the bathroom with a towel around his waist only, every other part of him wet.

Belle bit her lips unconsciously the moment she set her eyes on him. His hair was wet but there wasn’t a drop of water falling from the end of his dark hair. His broad torso, hairless as they were, also had some humidness.

He came up to her and took her handbag from her, keeping it where he left his watch and ring. Her eyes were down to his towel when he came back to where she stood, so he said;

“Do you want it?” Belle looked up when he asked that, realizing that she had been staring directly at his dick which was noticable even behind the towel he had around his waist.

“Belle,” he called when she didn’t give him an answer,”do you want it?” He asked her again and watched her nod slowly, he loved how shy she became in the bedroom.

He shortened the distance between them, lifting her face by her chin to look into her eyes. A mischievous smirk took over his lips.

“Do you want me to fuck you?” He asked again, playing with her soft lips.
