And the dance begins - 1

From the corner of her eyes, she could sense his jealousy. She could sense the panic inside of his heart. But the merciless her, wasn't ready yet to cave in.

With a foul mood, Raymond switched on the music and said,

"So everyone, leave your partners and first learn the basic steps. Once done with that, you can dance with your partners", and saying that he looked at Akira.

"Smart move, Maverick", Akira spoke through her eyes as she looked at him with a faint smile on her face.

He knew how to get the things that he wanted. She had to give that to him.

Unable to suppress his laugh, Raymond turned his face to the side and covered his mouth for a fake cough, which only she knew that was an act to hide the smile underneath.

Raymond asked Patricia to join along with others and started with the basic foot movements. First, he gave a demo. His fluid movements impressed everyone present over there and one of the girls said,

"That's way too difficult to do".

Raymond looked at her and said,

"Nothing is difficult once you practice it and if your gaze is focussed on it", saying that he shifted his gaze on Akira, who was dying with all the happiness inside of her.

He then went back to the center of the room and gave a slow demo of the footwork breaking it into numbered steps and asked everyone to practice.

"No Patricia, your steps are too large. You need to take smaller strides".

Then he moved from one corner to another instructing everyone when he finally reached Akira who was following what he had taught her. She took two slow steps forward and then raised her right knee till the opposite side of her chest and then swiftly moved her right leg behind her left after taking a half-circle.

She raised her eyebrows and looked at him like she was asking,

"How was it?" Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click for visiting.

To the answer of which he said,

"Do it again now".

Scrunching her nose she took two slow steps again and just when she raised her knees, his slender long fingers grazed along the outer skin of her thigh till he reached her knees. She shivered under his sudden touch and was about to lose her balance as she was standing with only one leg. But before she could even sway an inch, with his other palm he held her waist all tight and then said,

"This knee movement needs to be more fluid, rather than all robotic" and saying that he swiftly guided her knee up to her chest very slowly and then removed his hand for her to rotate and land it back behind her left leg.

"Hope you all got the point?", saying that he removed his hand holding her waist but before he did so, very tactfully with his thumb he grazed the soft skin of her back, underneath her blouse.

All that she could do was to get a hold of her breath and stay sane. He was definitely not going to show any mercy to her and he had already made it quite evident.

As he walked back to the front, there was a happy victorious smile on his face like he had won a bet against her. Reaching the focal point of the room he turned back and said,

"Four more and we move to the next step".

His eyes moved all-around instructing everyone as what they were doing wrong, but from within his insides were screaming to touch her. He had already tasted the blood when he ran his fingers on her skin. The more he looked at her, the more he was getting drowned in love with her.

She looked delicate and petite in that dress of hers and those tights did full justice to her well-toned legs. That tiny little skirt was just there for distracting his imagination, making him wanna know what was there underneath, raising his curiosity with every passing moment. That figure-hugging cropped blouse of hers, very generously displayed the beauty of hers, starting from her collar bones to her assets.

Everything about her was beautiful.

He just wanted to grab her right then and there and make her his own, like she was meant to be, but this distance and this facade that he had to carry was acting as a barrier in between.

With her eyes fixated on him, as she tried to do that step once more she lost her balance and just when she was about to slip n fall, her partner Tim, who was standing next to her on her right side, caught her by her hand.

"Careful there", Tim said and then released her hand.

As she stood back, she looked up all worried at him.

His face looked like he had just gulped a pail of poison.
