Savage Unapologetic(25)

Let the music capture your body.

Let go.

Set your body free.

Just. Dance.

Like a river …  like a river …

Shut your mouth and run me like a river  …

The song beckoned, and my hypnotized form answered with unmitigated tenacity. I submitted to the seductive rhythm, letting it speak through my body, rocking through it, vibrating through it.

How do we fall in love? Harder than a bullet could hit you

How do we fall apart? Faster than a hairpin trigger

Don't say, don't you say it

Shifting positions, instead of following Carmen's choreography, I added my own flair by dropping on the floor and began to sensually crawl towards the camera. Provocative. Magnetic. Captivating.

Shut your mouth, baby, stand like a river

Holy hands, oh, they make me a sinner

Breaking the mold, I bounced on my heels then swiftly got on my back, chest arched, before carefully shifting, balancing on my head and made a quick air split. Then I got on my knees and reverted back to the original choreography.

Tales of an endless heart, cursed is the fool who's willing

Can't change the way we are, one kiss away from killing

Lips parting, I swayed, rolling my hips as I scantily touched the valley of my breasts, trailing it all the way south as I zeroed in on the camera. Freeing inhibitions, I performed as if my aches were nonexistent. And all I saw were those spellbinding dark eyes waiting to ravish me.

River.

When the song ended, a loud whistle echoed in the studio. "Damn, Disney, you sure you weren't a stripper or something?" Carmen applauded as she strolled towards me and tapped my butt cheek. "That was hawt as fuck!"

"I guess that's the closest thing I'll get to a compliment from you." I supposed my stripper moves impressed her. Ha. Those particular moves were exclusively for River's eyes only, but tonight  …  tonight demanded it of me.



       
         
       
        

"Do you mind if I upload the videos in my channel? My followers would love you."

Grinning at her, I shook my head. "Not at all. Go ahead." I hadn't expected to enjoy it as much as I did. It felt spontaneous, unleashed. Unbidden.

I stayed for another thirty minutes because Carmen insisted I watch the group dance-offs. The energy in the studio was intoxicating, one I could easily get addicted to.

Before I left, I promised Carmen we would do it again soon. Tonight's experience was enlightening.

The moment I reached River's home, I went out like a light. I barely had the strength to get out of my scraps of clothing before I launched myself into bed, naked.

I had no recollection of River coming home. The only imprint he left behind was the feel of him between my thighs. He sure knew how to make it known he ravished my body while I was out like a light. A privilege he savored every chance he got.

He had no limitations, no inhibitions, because in his mind, he owned my body as I owned his. It was within his right to take as much as he desired. Though I hadn't gone as far as he did. Then again, when it came to satisfying sexual needs, I let him take charge. In some ways, I was reserved, hesitant to initiate sex. River loved to dominate, anyway, so I figured he executed it better than I did. He never complained, so I believed this arrangement suited us both.

I pondered why that was. There was no doubt how much I wanted him, but I supposed it all came down to confidence. As seductions went, I hadn't gone out of my way to do anything in fear that I might seem silly in his eyes.

Confidence was key, and I hoped that someday I would brace my fears and champion any reservations I had. I was still evolving, as a woman, as an actress, as my own person. Hopefully, in the long run, I would be up to the challenge and take charge and dominate the way I envisioned it a thousand times.

It was thirty past ten in the morning, and I barely just shifted to my side when Anton's name pealed into my phone.

"Don't tell me you're calling 'cause you're hungry already?" I mumbled as I stifled a yawn.

"That, too, but no. Go to YouTube, babe. You've gone viral." Anton's last words hit me like a block of ice.

Viral? I stilled, scowling. "What the hell?"

"For real. But hot damn, you never said you got some sick moves. You're so fucking wicked."

A sick, twisted knot churned in my gut. "Please, please, please, don't say anything to River. I don't know how he'll react  … "

"That man is possessive as fuck; how else will that man react, I wonder?" Anton teased, making me dread some more.

"I know  … " Biting on my lip, I could already picture his pissed off face.
