I never imagined I'd fall in love at first sight with a stranger I'd met in a bar, but I was immediately seduced by Julian's green eyes, his magnetic aura and the burning gaze he cast over me. After a crazy night of passion with him, I was already imagining myself living a beautiful love story. The cold look he gave me when I woke up was like taking a cold shower in winter... So that's all it was for him, a one-night stand? I was naive to think that a billionaire CEO would be interested in an ordinary girl like me. Is being pretty enough to retain this golden boy such as Christopher Kole? I don't think so, my goodgirl style must have put him off. I could have recovered easily from this affair but, unfortunately, it left consequences.
It was a warm summer evening and Amanda had reluctantly agreed to go to a bar with her best friend Emily, who wanted to try a new place "The ONE". Amanda didn't really like bars, but Emily, her friend, had insisted that it should be fun and that they should meet people there.
"Come on girl, let's have a drink," Emily said, leading Amanda to the bar. "You need to relax a little."
Amanda burst out laughing, letting herself be carried away. As they reached the bar, she noticed a man standing nearby, his back to them. He was tall and broad shouldered, his black hair neatly styled. There was something about him that caught her attention, a magnetic attraction that she couldn't quite explain.
Emily ordered their drinks "Two glasses of red wine", and while Amanda waited, the man turned around. Their eyes met, and Amanda felt an electric jolt. He was surprisingly handsome, with piercing green eyes that seemed to see through her. He smiled, and Amanda's heart skipped a beat.
"Hi," he said, in a soft, confident voice. "I am Christopher."
"Amanda," she replied, her voice barely above a whisper. "This is my friend, Emily".
"Nice to meet you, both," Christopher said, his smile widening. "It's your first time here, Amanda?"
Amanda nodded, suddenly feeling shy. "How did you guess?".
"You didn't seem to like the place".
Emily noticed that Amanda and Christopher seemed attracted to each other and decided to leave them alone. She sent a text to Amanda: "Girl, you better accept this gorgeous man's offer :) It's time to move on and forget about your stupid ex. I'm going to try and find a sexy man for tonight, xoxo."
Amanda laughed. "Anything you want to tell me?" He asked her. "No, Emily just sent me a joke".
She spent hours discussing with Christopher. Amanda found herself opening to Christopher in a way she hadn't had with anyone in years. There was something about him that made her feel safe, understood. As the night wore on, the bond between them deepened and Amanda found herself falling in love with him.
"I'm taking you home," Christopher said. Amanda agreed, wanting to spend more time with him, and they walked out. Christopher typed something on his cell phone. Suddenly, a sleek black Tesla parked in front of them, its headlights illuminating the street like a beacon. It was as if he had been summoned by magic. Christopher opened the car door for her with a flourish, his gaze lingering on her for a moment longer than necessary.
They settled into the soft leather seats of the Tesla, the silence punctuated only by the soft hum of the engine. Christopher asked her for her address, in a low and intimate voice. He leaned forward, his head close to the driver's window, and relayed the instructions, then rolled up the window.
"Champagne, love ?" he offered, taking a chilled bottle out of the car's small refrigerator.
Amanda, feeling a touch of vertigo because of the unexpected turn of events, agreed. She took a sip, the excitement tickling her throat. But she drank too fast, the champagne catching her off guard. She started coughing and spitting slightly.
Christopher walked closer, his arm instinctively wrapper around her, gently patting her back. "Easy, Love," he whispered, his voice being a low growl that made her shiver.
As she calmed down, she felt lifted, like she was floating in the air. His closeness was intoxicating, the scent of his cologne, a mixture of sandalwood and something musky and undeniably masculine, swirling around her. She looked up at him, her eyes meeting his, and felt herself melting under the intensity of his gaze.
He leaned closer, his breath fanning her cheek. "I'm gonna kiss you" he whispered. And then, before she could even answer, his lips captured hers.
Christopher began by caressing Amanda's lips with the tip of his tongue, then nibbling her lower lip. She had expected him to give her an imperious kiss, but he seemed more intent on playing with her to arouse her desire. He inserted his tongue into her mouth and caressed hers so gently that she thought she had never experienced a real kiss before. They exchanged a series of endless kisses, each one more intense than the last. Amanda felt an insidious warmth at the heart of her femininity. Her hands roamed over Christopher's chest, then down to his trousers, which were deformed by a bulge. He was horny.
Christopher stepped back, his eyes burning in hers. "I want you tonight", he said. "Come with me."
Amanda felt a dizzying mixture of fear and elation. It was dangerous territory, a path she knew she shouldn't take but the attraction to him was undeniable, a force that threatened to consume her.
"I'm not used to one-night stands", she says.
"Amanda, I know this sounds crazy, but I feel a connection with you. I don't want this evening to end. Maybe it's the beginning of something".
Amanda's heart raced. "I feel it too, Christopher."
He approached, his eyes searching hers. "Will you come to my house, love ? I'll give you a wonderful time, I promise."
Amanda hesitated, her mind racing. She knew what he was asking for, and a part of her was terrified. But another part of herself, the one who had been alone for so long, wanted to say yes. She nodded, and Christopher's face lit up with a smile.
Christopher leaned forward, his voice low and firm, "To my house", he ordered the driver. The car slowly changed direction, entering a long, tree-lined driveway that seemed to stretch endlessly.
As they approached, Amanda gasped. The house was a masterpiece, a stunning blend of modern architecture and classic elegance. Towering glass walls offered stunning views of the surrounding landscape, while intricate stonework and meticulously manicured gardens gave an air of timeless grandeur. It was a beautiful house, the kind of house you only see in movies.
