Heart of Ice (4 page)

“Professor, I really enjoyed this class.
You’re a great teacher.”

“No problem Joshua,” she said glancing up
into his into his honey colored eyes. White teeth gleamed back at
her and his hair was cropped closely to his head in a fade fashion.
He was quite handsome, the girls all had their eyes on him, and
strangely she never heard of him dating anyone. Oh well, not her
business. He was an A student and that was all that mattered to
her, he was graduating from the university with honors and as a
valedictorian. Handsome and smart. Good for him.

“Well there was something else I wanted to
talk about.”

“And that is?” she asked putting her things
into her purse.

“You.” He said inching closer to her.

“What are you talking about Josh?” She said
running behind the desk to keep it between them.

“C’mon professor, you got to live a
little.”

“What I do in my free time doesn’t concern
you,” she huffed out. Persistent little brat. Why wouldn’t he go
away?

“I know that you’re only twenty-one, and
that makes you my junior.” He said sliding over the desk and
trapping her between the wall and him. What was up with all these
men attacking her? Did she have a sign stamped to her forehead that
screamed prey?

“I’m the professor here, I suggest you back
away.” She said trying to keep the blush from forming and her voice
firm. Obviously, she was failing miserably.

“Really?”

“How did you get such information? That
information isn’t privy to students.”

“I guess being the heir to a million dollar
industry helps.” Christina’s heart raced as he inched closer. He
wasn’t her green eyes. Luckily, her phone rang interrupting the
conversation. She picked up the phone on instinct, she didn’t care
who was on the other end.

“Hello?” she said casting a wary eye at
Joshua.

“Christina,” the voice replied. Hearing the
voice, she instantly blush. It was Matt.

“Matt,” she whispered into the phone.

“What are you doing?” he asked.

“Wrapping up my last class of the day.”

Joshua looked at the woman who held him
captive with her beauty for the last year. He always saw her
rushing hurriedly through the halls, on to teach the next class. It
was when he finally enrolled in her class that he really got a
chance to see her beauty firsthand. Her hair was always pulled back
in a bun making her look slightly older. He was so interested in
her that he had a friend pull her profile. Discovering that she was
only twenty-one, he figured he stood a chance. He would watch from
a far and wait. Watching her blush while she talked to another man
riled him up.

Christina looked up as Josh moved in,
“Joshua, you’re dismissed.”

“Who are you talking to?”

“That is none of your concern,” she told him
frowning.

“Is he your boyfriend,” Josh persisted.

“Joshua you are a student, please go.” Her
anxiety was rising. She had no idea that he could be so pushy.

“Are you okay?” Matt asked.

“Yes I’m fine,” she replied. If Josh didn’t
leave she was going to push the panic button. She’d be damn if she
let some hot headed student bully her.

Joshua looked at her; he wanted to apologize
but was angry. Who was she talking to? He watched her carefully,
and it didn’t look like she’d been dating anyone. What changed?

Christina gave a relieved sigh as Josh
finally exited the class room.

“Look Matt I have to go.”

“Is he gone?”

“Yes.”

“Okay, call me if you have any more trouble.
I’ll see you Friday, nine am sharp.”

“Bye.”

Matt Dallas sat in his office gazing at the
New York City skyline. Christina had been on his mind since their
last encounter. He’d been disappointed when she hadn’t called him.
Looking at the reply to the text she sent him, gave him hope.
Wrapping up all his tasks, he decided to give her a call. Her
breathy voice answered him. He wondered whether or not she always
sounded like a siren on phone. His blood immediately rushed south.
He adjusted his pants. He frowned when he realized her voice was
strained. He wondered what was wrong. Hearing her say that a
student, a male one at that was harassing her almost sent him over
the edge. He was ready to pack up and take a jet straight to
Nashville. She was his and he didn’t like sharing. Once she ended
the call with him, Matt cancelled whatever appointments he had for
the day. He’d let Collum deal with them. He called his private
pilot and told him to have the jet ready in two hours. He was going
to Nashville.

***

Christina sighed, as she made it home. She
had an eventful day. Joshua cornering her like that really
surprised her. She wondered if she was going to have to start
carrying pepper spray around. She wasn’t the tallest person in the
world. She looked for signs of Sarah. It seemed she hadn’t stopped
by. Christina didn’t mind Sarah dropping by after all she was her
best friend. She suspected that she would make an appearance
tonight to talk about how her exams went. Ordering a large supreme
pizza and grabbing a bottle of pink moscato champagne, she sat down
on the couch and indulged in her favorite TV station, ID
investigation channel. What did you people expect? She had a degree
in criminal justice. The story was getting good when Sarah made her
presence known, coming through the door loud as usual. Christina
shook her head and giggled. They were practically polar
opposites.

“Pizza! Feed me woman!” she said dropping
her things off and making a beeline for the food. Once settled on
the sofa, she gave Christina a smirk.

“What?”

“What exactly transpired between you and
that major hunk of a man?” Christina blushed furiously as Sara
wiggled her eyebrows at her.

“Nothing, I’m mean we kissed,” she said
hiding her face behind the pillow.

“Hmm, what else.” Sarah asked leaning in
closer.

“Well, I’m going with him to the cabin in
the mountains.”

“What?!” Sarah squealed. Christina hurriedly
poured herself a glass of champagne. She was going to turn into an
alcoholic if she kept downing the drinks.

“I knew you had it in you! So that means
you’re prepared to lose it.”

“Ugh, Sarah I hate when you say it like
that.”

“You have to tell me, how it is with an
older man.”

“Kill me now.”

“Oh, we have got to go shopping to pick out
some little hot negligees for you.”

“I will die. Can’t we just order them
online? I’ll pay for overnight shipping,” she said trying to deter
Sarah.

“No! Get your visa ready honey. I know what
we’re doing tonight.” Christina looked at Sarah in fear. She was in
deep trouble, once Sarah got her mind on something, it was
impossible to stop her. Her shoulders sagged in defeat.

“Very well.”

***

Matt laughed as Collum’s voice screeched at
him from the phone. He was on his private jet heading to
Nashville.

“You dirty bastard! You could’ve warned me!
Leaving me here to fend for myself against these savages. You owe
me Matt, and believe me I am going to collect.” Matt smiled as he
had a shot of tequila to relax.

“Aw, it couldn’t have been that bad. You’re
just pissed that you wouldn’t be able to spend time with that
blonde. Don’t think I didn’t see the way you were eyeing her. I am
going to have to warn you to stay away from her, until I get
Christina to be mine.”

“Dude, you’re serious about her.”

“Yes, I am. She didn’t recognize me; which
mean she couldn’t be in it for the money. I like her vulnerability,
that ass, and those large tits.”

“Alright man. I got it. You two have fun.”
Collum said disconnecting the call. Now he knew Matt was serious.
It was time to do some digging. He would be damn if he let another
girl come in and crush his friend again. Collum was happy to have
him back to normal. When all their other friends left him alone
because he wanted to be, Collum stuck by his side and pestered him
until raged and finally broke—crying in his arms. They never talked
about it, but that was the first time he’d ever seen Matt cry.
Family was everything to him, since he had such a shitty childhood.
Collum got on the phone and made a call.

“Get me a file on everything you know about
Christina Moore. I want it by tomorrow morning.”

Chapter 5

The two entered the adult fantasy store. The
little ringing bell announced their presence. Storming through the
store like she owned the place Sarah found the negligees area,
Christina simply followed behind her with a flaming face. They
slowly made their way through the various pieces of clothing. Could
this even be called clothing? Christina gulped as she looked at the
pieces; they left little of nothing to the imagination.

“Isn’t he going to realize that I’ve been
planning to have hot rigorous sex with him?”

“HA! So you are planning on giving it away,”
Sarah yelled like a proud coach whose player scored the winning
touchdown.

“Will you shut up,” she whisper yelled,
pulling her friend towards her in a death grip.

“Chris, I swear you are such a prude. He
probably expect you to have some type of lacy underwear. Let’s get
you some black, to make those sexy grey eyes of yours pop.” She
said holding up a piece. The material was shear and frilly with
little light pink bows on the hips of panties, she wasn’t sure, and
a nightie that completed the ensemble. Christina looked at the
price tag, a whopping fifty bucks for these scraps of clothing. She
shook her head.

“How about this white one?” Sarah asked.

“Yes, let’s just announce to the world that
I am his virgin sacrifice. Here master, I am here to offer myself
to you.” Christina said rolling her eyes.

“He’s bound to know anyway. He has to pop
the cherry.”

“The correct term is the hymen and it is the
membrane that surrounds the opening to the vag--.”

“Yeah, yeah, yeah don’t go all smarty pants
on me.” Deeming that they had enough lingerie, Christina was ready
to leave the store. Sarah looked at her friend, if she thought that
was all they were going to get from this store, she was sadly
mistaken. It was time she came out of that shell of hers. Dragging
her over to the toy department, Christina was prepared to die. Open
up ground and swallow her whole. She would be forever grateful.

“You need something for when he’s away.”

“Is that your way of justifying your
actions.” Christina asked. She felt like her face had ignited. She
didn’t even want to look around the store, but the makeshift
penises just assaulted her from everywhere. What if someone from
the university saw her here? Surely, one could die from humiliation
and embarrassment.

“Just grab one, any one. Hurry up.” She was
so hot; she was going to pass out. Damn Sarah and her vulgar
ways.

“Okay, okay, settle down.” Sarah said
finally looking at the Christina. The woman was turning different
shades of purple. Sarah giggled; perhaps she did push her friend a
bit too far. She grabbed the dildo and some anus beads and shoved
it in the cart. She wanted Christina’s first time to be awesome.
She guessed she’ll cut her some slack. Taking the bag from her
friend she took it to the counter. Not batting an eye, she held her
hand out to Christina for the visa. Swiping and paying for the
items, they left the store.

Returning home, she put all her things up as
Sarah teased her. She was going to strangle Sarah at the rate she
was going. She couldn’t believe she brought those things. Ever
since meeting Matt her mind had been on a one track course—sex. It
was all she thought about. Why was this happening to her? It
probably wasn’t as good as all the hype about it. When she thought
about those hot steamy dreams she had of Matt, she realized maybe
was missing out on something.

“There’s just one more thing I need to do
gorgeous and you'll be set.” Sarah said as she sat on the edge of
Christina’s bed. It was time her friend met a guy who could take
care of her and protect her. Christina’s sweet nature and good
looks made her a target for cruelty and jealousy. Sarah stood by
her side as always protecting and ensuring that no one made her
cry.

“What’s that?” Christina asked looking at
Sarah.

“Live life to the fullest. Take advantage of
every opportunity. Be spontaneous. Promise Chris. I only want the
best for you.” She looked at Sarah, the girl was serious. She was
so glad she had Sarah as a friend. Her self-proclaimed best friend
that is. She giggled.

“I promise.”

“Good, now all there’s left to do is for you
to let down that wild gorgeous curly hair.”

“But I don’t want to!” she whined.

“I wished I had naturally wavy hair like
yours! All you do is wear it in a bun. It stretches to the middle
of your back. Omg! I just got a plan!” she smirked devilishly at
Christina. Uh oh, Christina knew that look. It didn’t bode very
well for her. To summarize, it would simply end with her in some
type of unorthodox situation, with Sarah roaring with laughter at
her expense. Just the same she gave into Sarah’s demands.

***

Matt was tired. He leapt on the jet the
second he heard Christina was in trouble. Now that he landed, he
sat in his hotel room with a good old fashion beer. This time
during the trip, he booked the presidential suite. It was just for
one night, but he needed his space and he wanted to feel
comfortable. The woman definitely wasn’t his norm. He hadn’t dated
since Natalia, but it was something about Christina that made him
want to own her in every way. It could be her looks, that hot
little body or the innocence she projected. All he knew was that he
wanted her. He usually got what he wanted. The woman was everything
he wanted, educated, humble, kind, and luscious, he could just go
on and on. When he thought about the extracurricular activities
they would be participating in later, his body stood on end. He
would take her rough, hard and on all fours. She would love every
moment of it. Beer forgotten, he got up to take a cold shower and
cool himself down. This woman was going to be his, instinct told
him so. He finally turned in for the night. Christina would be
waiting for him tomorrow.
