Fallen

Chapter5: Charmed
A/N: Leorah spends a large amount of time alone with Deacon and soon she finds herself actually enjoying his company. Will she give in completely to Deacon’s charming ways?

Leorah jumped when she felt a hand touch her shoulder. She twisted in her chair and gave a small sigh of what she could only describe as relief when she saw that it was Deacon standing behind her. “Sorry, I didn’t meant to scare you.”

“It’s alright, I was just thinking about a lot of stuff that’s all.”

“What about?”

“The lab and if I still have a job there.”

Leorah finally noticed that Deacon wasn’t wearing his leather pants and black silk shirt that he had been wearing earlier. Now he was dressed in a charcoal gray Armani suit that had been clearly tailored to fit his body perfectly.

“What’s with the suit? Are you going somewhere?”

“Correction, we are going somewhere angel.”

“Where?”

“To have dinner underneath the stars.”

“Dinner under the stars? Where?”

“At the Parragon Hotel.”

“The Parragon Hotel? I don’t have anything even close to being nice enough to wear Deacon.”

He flashed her a toothy grin as he held out his hand to her.

“Oh yes you do.”

“What did you do?”

“I had one of my assistants go pick up a dress for you earlier today.”

“But-

“You’re what, a size two?”

“Yeah. How did you know?”

“I pay attention to detail. I’m an observer.”

“Obviously.”

“Come on I’ll show you the dress.”

“Alright.”

Leorah took Deacon’s hand and allowed him to lead her back to the room they had been sharing. Once inside the room Leorah’s smoky gray eyes immediately fell on the most beautiful dress she could have ever imagined. There spread out across the bed was a silk dress that was a deep shade of crimson, almost the color of blood. Lying next to it were a pair of perfectly matching stiletto heels that would buckle around her ankles.

“Deacon, where did you get this dress and these shoes?”

“Why don’t you go try them on first angel?”

With a small nod Leorah carefully picked up the dress and padded into the bathroom. In a moment she had stripped off her clothing and found that the dress was much too form fitting for her to even keep her panties on underneath it. So with a small sigh she slipped her panties off and placed them on top of the neat pile that she had made of her clothes. The dress was gorgeous she could not deny that as she glanced at her reflection in the large mirror before her. The front of the dress was a deep plunging v-shape that sunk down to just below her navel showing off the perfectly creamy white skin and sculpted muscles that she had worked so hard to maintain over the years. Turning around Leorah took notice that the back of the dress also went down in a low v-shape and fell just at the elegant dip in her back just above her perfectly curved backside.

Stepping out of the bathroom Leorah immediately felt Deacon’s eyes roaming none too casually over her body. “How do I look?”

“You look amazing angel, but I expected nothing less.”

“Thank you Deacon.” She strode over to the bed and sat down so that she could put on her shoes. Deacon knelt before her and grabbed the shoes before she could reach them.

“Here let me.”

Leorah felt her cheeks burn with the blush that swept across them like wildfire when Deacon gently took her right ankle in his hand to put her shoe on for her. Once both of her shoes were on she went back into the bathroom and secured her curly thick reddish brown hair on top of her head elegantly with a few bobby pins.

“Okay I’m ready.”

“There’s just one more thing that I have for you angel.”

“More? What more could you possibly give me Deacon?”

“Just a little something I thought would look nice around your neck.”

With a smile he pulled out a long black box from the desk that was across from the bed and walked over to where Leorah stood. She took the box from him and opened it slowly. Nestled inside the box was a stunning platinum necklace that was covered in diamonds and rubies.

“Oh Deacon, it’s beautiful!”

“Let me help you put it on.”

She turned so that her back was facing Deacon and he put the necklace around her neck easily.

“I don’t know what to say about all of this Deacon.”

“Then don’t say anything angel, I enjoy seeing your face light up when I give you gifts. Come on let’s go downstairs, the limo should be waiting for us outside.”

“A limo?”

“That’s right. I told you Leorah, you’re very special to me.”

Deacon led Leorah downstairs and out into the courtyard where a shiny black limo was waiting for them just as he had said there would be. The driver opened the door and Deacon allowed Leorah to climb into the limo ahead of him.

“Deacon this is really sweet of you.”

“You can expect a lot more where this is concerned angel. I intend on giving you anything your little heart could ever possibly desire.”

Leorah couldn’t keep the smile from spreading across her face as Deacon took one of her hands and brought it up to his lips t place a chaste kiss upon it. Deep down she knew that she shouldn’t like or encourage the attention he was showering her with but she couldn’t help it. Deacon was just so charming and sweet where she was concerned. Not to mention he was practically the most gorgeous man that she had ever seen. Leorah knew that if she didn’t start putting up more of a fight that she would quickly give in to whatever it was Deacon truly desired from her. She was running out of time and if Blade didn’t show up soon to rescue her she might not want to be rescued at all when the time came.
