Chapter 41

Oh how wrong I was. There was nothing humble about the apartment building in which Hunter lived in. From the mean looking guards in suits at the gate to a luxury garage with personalized parking spaces.

"We have a salon, a spa, a small supermarket and a gym so that in case you need anything you don't have to go far."Hunter informed me showing me a map of the apartment complex mounted on a wall that showed where everything was.

"A pool, a sauna and a kids playground."I mumbled listing more of the amenities offered in the complex.

Hunter nodded and led me towards the elevator after grabbing my bag from the trunk.

"How much rent do you pay?"I asked him when I realized that I could actually see my reflection in the stainless steel interior of the elevator.

"Don't worry about that, just enjoy baby girl. My world is now yours."Hunter replied brushing me off.

He was really classy about it so I didn't feel offended but still. People really did have money while others struggled to make ends meet. It kind of made me feel guilty being there with Hunter. I banished that thought immediately when I remembered my talk with Hunter from earlier that morning.

Try. Try. Try.

And I was. Really hard.

The elevator stopped at the tenth floor and Hunter and I alighted. He took my hand and led me to his place. I paid attention since apparently I would be spending a couple of days there and needed to know the way in and out, just in case.

We stopped at a grey wooden door just like all the others but with the number F7-12 on it. Hunter retrieved the key from his pocket and unlocked the door. The light was dim since it was light out so I couldn't really make out anything.

"Welcome home baby girl."Hunter invited holding the door open for me.

I hesitated for a second and Hunter had to push me in gently. He switched on the light revealing his luxury apartment to my bewildered eyes. Like everything else Hunter owned including himself, it was huge, expensive and elegant.

He had an open plan design so I could see the kitchen from the living room. The living room didn't have much just one of those expensive endless L couches , a glass table, grey and white rug, a mirror decor on the wall behind the couch and an extremely large flat screen TV.

The kitchen had all the necessary appliances like refrigerator, oven, microwave, cabinets, a small island with stools and a four seater dining table.

"There's the laundry room."Hunter said pointing to a door next to the kitchen."And through that hallway is the bathroom and bedroom."

"Can I?"I asked hoping to explore.

"Of course, my home is your home now."Hunter replied with a smile.

He was saying it to make me feel welcome but I didn't quite feel like that in an apartment whose rent could probably have paid my whole semesters school fees back in university. I took off my shoes at the door leaving me in a pair of white socks and stepped forward.

The laundry room had a washing machine and a dryer because the rich ceo definitely couldn't hand wash his own clothes.

I explored the kitchen opening the fridge and finding it empty except for milk, a couple of beers and eggs.

"Don't judge. I didn't shop because I knew I wouldn't be here for a while."Hunter defended himself when I sent him a pointed look.

"Sure, use that excuse. Man who probably orders in all meals."I retorted moving on.

His silence only proved me right.

I moved to the small hallway with Hunter right behind switching on the lights for me. The bathroom door was first and I opened it to reveal a very modern setting. He had a glass shower with a tub, double sink, toilet, drying rack, robe hangers and a shelf with towels and a couple of fake plants.

"I like the bathtub."I grinned looking at Hunter with a knowing look.

"Of course you do."He retorted understanding the reference.

We moved on to the bedroom that had a grey and white theme. The grey queen size bed was in the middle of the vast room with white sheets. There was a window one one side of the room with grey curtains. The grey carpet fit perfectly with the room's theme. He had bedside drawers on both sides of the bed with headlamps on both. A desk on one corner of the room and a wooden wardrobe on the other filled out the vast room. "So what do you think?"Hunter asked when he noticed I was done with my tour.

I turned on my heel to face him fully.

"It's all very.... manly."I replied unable to find a better word.

"I know, it's a bachelor pad because I'm a bachelor."Hunter replied with a grin.

"Smartass."I retorted with an eye roll.

"How long have you lived here?"I asked moving on.

"A couple of months, why?"He replied.

"It doesn't look very lived in."I answered.

He didn't have many personal items like family photos on the wall to identify the place with him.

"I moved here after Veronica and I broke up. I needed space to be by myself and couldn't get that in my old apartment. Everyone knew where I lived and they wouldn't stop dropping by to check in on me."Hunter explained.

"Makes sense. So nobody knows where you moved to?"I asked walking closer to him.

"The guys know and their significant others but they wouldn't tell my family."He answered.

I stood in between Hunters legs and wrapped my hands around his neck looking down at him. He pulled me closer and lay his head on my stomach his arms around me.

"How long have you been lonely?"I asked Hunter in a whisper.

His breath hitched when he realized I was onto him. The more he spoke of his family and how meddlesome they were, the sadder he got.

"A very long time."Hunter admitted releasing a shaky breath.

His arms around me tightened and in that moment I wished I could shield him from all the pain he was experiencing deep down. I caressed his head rubbing soothing circles on his neck.

"I'm here now."I consoled leaning down to kiss the top of his head.

"I know."Hunter replied pulling away to look at me.

He was giving me the same look he had earlier when we had sex. Like I was a fresh breath of air after he had almost drowned. I didn't want him to become too attached and dependent on me but I realized that I couldn't stop him or myself from feeling the same.

"I am so happy I let Brian talk me into going for my weird bachelor party."Hunter confessed giving me an adoring look that had my knees buckling.

"And I'm so glad my ex friends ditched me that night."I replied leaning in to kiss him.

Hunter pulled me onto his lap and I was forced to straddle him my legs on either side of his of the bed. His hands found their way under my t-shirt as he caressed my back. I cupped his face and kissed him hoping he could feel my emotions through the kiss. I had been lonely for a long time too and I hoped that Hunter and I could be the cure for each other. We both needed someone in our lives that was just ours. I wanted to be that someone for Hunter because he was becoming that person for me.

"Wanna christen the bed?"I whispered huskily in Hunter's ear.

"Thought you'd never ask."He growled getting up with me in his arms.

He turned around and lay me on the bed crawling on top of me. There was something almost primal about the look he was giving me and it made me hot all over.

"You know what I've realized?"Hunter asked looking at me as he bit his lower lip.

"What?"I rasped out my throat suddenly dry.

"I haven't had my favorite dessert in a while."He replied smirking at me.

"What?"I mumbled confused as to why we were talking about food when I was hungry for him.

Hunter grinned, pecked my lips before getting off the bed. I looked at him confused until he pulled me to the edge of the bed and kneeled on the floor. My panties got even more soaked when I realized what he was talking about.

Hunter did quick work of unbuttoning my shorts and pulling them down together with my panties dropping then next to him. I expected him to take his time teasing me by beginning with kissing my thighs but he surprised me by lifting my legs up to step on the bed and diving in immediately. I gasped when his lips covered my pussy sucking me into his mouth. He let go of my legs and used his fingers to part my pussy lips exposing my clit and gushing entrance.

"Fuck, smells delicious."Hunter groaned running his nose over my pubic hair.

I wanted to pull his head away in embarrassment but then I remembered that Hunter wouldn't like that so I stopped myself. He licked a straight line through my slit, his tongue lapping up the juices that were already leaking from my pussy.

"Tastes even better."Hunter murmured against my clit, the vibrations of his voice travelling all through my core turning me on more.

He used the tip of his tongue to draw slow torturous circles on my clit sending slow jolts of pleasure all over my body. He repeated the motion continuously, creating a pleasurable sensation that began at the tip of my toes travelling throughout my whole body.

He paused to kiss my pussy for a long second before he changed tactics to flicking his tongue on my nub sideways in fast paced strokes. Small moans slipped past my lips at his wickedly talented tongue.

His fingers joined the game as he used one of them to rub my pussy at the same time with his tongue before he slid it down my slit and sunk the thick digit into my tight hole. I gasped at the intrusion but his tongue never stopped playing with my clit so I was quick to adjust.

"Mmmh, fuck."I groaned when he added another finger.

"Bear."I begged him when he curled this fingers stroking my g-spot.

"I know baby, I know."He soothed blowing onto my pussy.

I dug my nails into the sheets gripping them hard as I tried to ground myself from all the sensations wracking my body.

"Feel it baby, just feel."Hunter demanded using both his tongue and fingers to drive me wild.

That familiar tingling that always let me know I was close started burning at the pit of my stomach. My moans started getting louder as Hunter's tongue and fingers relentlessly worked on my pussy to push me over that glorious edge.
