"Thirty One Days "

Chapter 5: Tango (Holiday Bonus Chapter)

She is spun to the right and her breath catches when the hand on her back slips incrementally lower, the tips of Treize’s fingers spreading across the top of her backside. She steps back at his prompt and he follows without missing a beat, his eyes like blue fire, rivaling the hottest star. The only thing that’s missing is the rose between his teeth.

The people around them are hushed, watching through eyes that shine with admiration, though she knows that admiration is directed at her dance partner, not her. She knows what they see when they look at her. Cold, callous, ruthless…psychotic. A shrew who chose her career over marriage and a family. She wants to tell them that isn’t who she really is. Wants to scream and shout that she would have all those things if only the man who is holding her like a lover, would actually be her lover.

He dips her back and she bends smoothly beneath his artiste manipulation, her hair brushing across the floor. She’s dizzy when she is righted again, though whether from the blood rushing to her head, or from the passionate way he sweeps her across the room, she isn’t sure. Perhaps that’s how he sees her, too. Perhaps that’s why he is not her lover. If only she could lay to rest the war within her, perhaps he would see her as the woman she desperately wants to be for him. Until then, she will gratefully offer herself in whichever way he’ll have her. Perhaps this tango will lead to another…and another. Perhaps, one day, their tango will be the beginning of something beautiful.
