Free Destructively Alluring by N. Isabelle Blanco

saw. One look around warped those plans. Too many people were in the lobby. In other words, too many men . Too many pairs of eyes that turned to stare at what was mine. When I saw the guy who lived below me and how his eyes raked my girl from head to toe…
    “Dorian,” Demi gasped, obviously surprised that I’d wrapped my arm around her waist and pulled her in tight.
    I raised my eyebrows, throwing her an ‘innocent’ look.
    “Oh my God,” Demi laughed under her breath, shaking her head at me.
    We stepped out of the building. It wasn’t lost on me that Demi hadn’t pulled away and when she slowly reached her arm around me, something warm shot through me. Something that made me feel oddly lightheaded.
    It could just be all the blood not in your head right now.
    This is true…
    “We’re going to have to do something about this reaction you keep having when a guy looks my way,” Demi suggested playfully as we entered the huge, air-conditioned ‘pharmacy.’
    “You’re right,” I mused, pursing my lips. “We need to get you lots of long-sleeve turtlenecks and loose pants.”
    Demi stared up at me with an unamused look. I shrugged my shoulders. “Then you’re just going to have to be more understanding of the fact that I don’t like other guys looking at you that way, aren’t you?”
    She just shook her head at me again. She wasn’t really looking at me but I could still tell she was fighting back a smile. Several people turned to look at us as we walked by. I knew it was most likely because of the way we were dressed. That and how hot my girl was. I managed to ignore them and lead Demi towards the aisle that had the condoms. I took one look at what they had, finding the lambskin ones and grabbing a box of three.
    Then, I thought better of it. Put it back and grabbed the box of twelve.
    Nah, fuck that. I put that back, kneeled slightly and there you go. Thirty six condoms, nearly eighty dollars, but of course price wasn’t an issue and I didn’t give a damn about that.
    Latex was annoying. I refused to wear that shit. Besides, these came the closest to feeling like nothing and I needed to feel as much of Demi as I could now that we were going to do this. I straightened up and saw her squinting at the box I was holding.
    She caught me staring at her and blushed again. “What?” I asked, looking between the box and her.
    “Aside from the size of that box compared to the other two you picked out first…nothing. I’d heard of those and was curious, that’s all.” She shrugged after that, cheeks still pink.
    I walked up to her and pulled her back into my side, fighting the urge to nibble on her cheek. “You heard about them?”
    “More like read.”
    “Where?” I asked as we walked towards the cashier.
    “Cosmo.”
    “Cosmo? Wait, the magazine? The one always advertising sex tips on the cover and shit?”
    Demi blushed harder, her face nearing red.
    “Demi,” I all but growled, my imagination running wild. “What have you been reading?”
    “What? Just ‘cause I haven’t had someone to try out those things on, it doesn’t mean I haven’t been curious,” she said in a small, defensive voice.
    “Me,” I pretty much grunted, sounding like an ape.
    “What?”
    “You’re going to try out all those things with me ,” I clarified, staring hungrily at her. Needing to feel her closer, I pulled her all the way up against my chest. Not even the clothes between us could bar the electric heat we ignited from leaking through.
    I knew her nipples were hard for me. Her facial expression said it all, I didn’t need to see anything else. The way she nodded her head made that urge come back. The one that had me licking at my teeth from behind tense lips. The one that had me salivating, the mere thought of that skin in the grip of my teeth nearly turning me into a beast.
    I took advantage of the fact that we were waiting in line and took her mouth. Took it as much as I could considering people were
