Rise Of The Phoenix
“You shouldn’t be here.” Niki Sanders whispered thickly into his ear and immediately wondered how had he gotten so close to her so soon. Everything was happening so fast.
DL was gone. He had taken Micah to school. This was all deliberate. She had been processed and planned, just like everything else in his life.
“Nathan, you need to leave.” She ordered, this time with more audacity.
But he would not relent. The way his eyes pierced through her skin, lighting her on fire. He devoured her whole body with his gaze. Slowly, she could feel herself going under; she was drowning in his desires.
Nathan Petrelli touched her then, tentatively, but she did not resist. She did not back away. And so he did not hesitate. Softly, leisurely, he moved his fingers; he traced her collarbone before bringing his mouth to hers. He drank her in with a tenderness she was certain she had never felt before. She found herself surrendering to his touch.
Niki moaned throatily as she felt his hand beneath her skirt, stroking her thigh. Reaching higher and higher as she felt herself losing control. Falling deeper and deeper. Nathan pulled her closer, breathing in her perfume; memorizing her scent. So familiar. The smell of her body had lingered before.
He knew exactly where to touch her, she realized, almost as if he had done this before…
Something bubbled in her gut; the heat rose. She simply wanted to give in to the overwhelming sensation. She needed to let loose. Dark and cruel.
Nathan paused as Niki pushed him back slightly. The look in her eyes had changed. There was no guilt, no pleasure. Only pure unbridled fear. He had crossed the line and now he needed to reel her back in.
He removed his hands from her splendour, untangling his body from hers. This could wait. It would have to. He turned to leave without uttering a word.
“Where are you going, Nathan?” What now?
He gave her a polite smile, the one he had used over and over during his campaigning, every time he faced the camera.
“Now you have two choices: you tell your husband and he beats the shit out of me, or…” He grazed her cheek one last time before letting go. “You know where you can find me.”
Niki watched him leave and felt her composure return. And she waited. Waited until everything returned to normal. Waited for life to continue. For the memory to fade. But as she stood she knew that her world would never be the same. Not until she changed it. It was up to her to fix. To make it better, instantly. She had to make it right.
She knew exactly what she had to do. So as she stepped out the door, she never looked back.
