5 Sea of ecstasy (1/2)

Chapter 5

Joslyn had waited patiently all night for hot surfer boy (as Raven had called him) to leave his booth. Guilty as it made her feel she had looked forward to getting to know him better. She had even returned several times throughout the night for refills, mostly because Russ kept stealing her cups and drinking them himself, but he hadn't even tried leaving the booth once. Instead, he had stayed busy with various partygoers, checking ID's and explaining services his shop would offer. Eventually Raven had left to go dance with a guy she had known from work. Shelly had remained glued to the stage the entire night, leaving her alone with Russ. Typically spending time with him wasn't a big, out of the ordinary event but he had been aggressively making passes at her all night. The drunker he got the more forceful he became.

She replayed it in her mind.

”Russ, damnit stop!” she pushed him away as he tried taking yet another one of her cups of beer. ”You are already drunk enough…” Before the last word could fully come out of her mouth he's lips came crashing down on her, almost painfully.

She pushed his face away and tried turning away from him, but he grabbed her arm. ”Jos, please quit fighting this. I know you want me too. I can feel it with every thread of my body!” He pulled her closer, pressing her hand into his chest and pushing it down his abdomen.

She pulled away with more force this time, ”Russ, stop it! This!” she pointed indicating them both. ”It's never going to happen! You know that I know that! Let's for a minute forget the age difference and any consideration for others around us. If you were to become serious with anyone other than a full-blooded werewolf, your family and the council would literally shit bricks!” She began to leave but decided to add on one last blow before running as far away from him as she could. ”I have changed your diapers before if anything you're like a little brother to me.”

At that Russ snarled up his nose, ”Say what you want, I know you want me. I can see it every time I'm near you and I can SMELL your desire!” he took several drunken steps to close in the distance between them, before finally coming full force at her and trying to land a kiss yet again.

Joslyn threw her hand up to block is lips from her mouth. ”Yea, you may be right. I am attracted to you. You've always been beautiful, and you've truly grown into a man in the last year or so. But that doesn't change the fact that you are 18 years old, just turned 18 literally 2 MONTHS ago, and I've been like a guardian to you up until 2 months ago?!” She let her voice soften again as she continued knowing good and well these next words would drive him away for sure. ”I'm sorry but in the end, you will always be just a child to me.”

Russ grabbed ahold of her hand again and pressed her palm against the front of his shorts. ”Does this feel like a child to you?” He forced her fingers to cup him as he grew hard in her hand. ”Look at me in the face right here, right now and tell me you think of me as only some child… Like a brother!” He leaned in closer to her, his hot breath tickling the tender flesh of her neck and shoulder. He pushed himself against her palm as he held her hand in place causing shocked moan to escape her lips. He whispered against her ear, ”You can't hide it, so why try?”

Joslyn couldn't handle it any longer she jerked her hand away and quickly turned away from him. She began pushing through the crowd of people who had begun watching them.

”Fine, say what you will. Run away, throw yourself on the first piece of shit you come across. But know, at the end of the day I will be the one you come home to and I will not give up!” Russ yelled after her.

Joslyn shook her head without responding and started walking away from the crowd and lights. She found herself alone and away from all the other party guests before she even realized it. As she stared out over the water she decided to give in to the temptation offered by the calm waves and jumped in. In no time she had completely lost track of the time and of all the stresses from just a short time ago.
