Summer to me means beach, blue waters of ocean that I never saw 'cos I lived in the city very far from the coast. It was so warm this year so much that my skin burned and I needed that cool liquid to balm my hot body. The ground was moist from appraching wave so I came to the very edge. Another wave and I will ease a heat that threten to overwhelm me. Then something moved near, climbed on me, a huge thing a couldn't see but feel. I panicked and grabbed the thick air only I could actually sense that. My eyes flew open immediately like I was dipped in the ice waters of Arctic and I was struck by another observant stare. Dream and reality still mixed 'till I figured out what had just happend. Truth revealed itself, it was me who drifted off somehow with all that danger hanging on my neck. What had happend last night was a mystery to me and only one who could give me some answer was holding my butt. "Can you move that hand elsewhere? I said through clenched teeth. "Good morning yourself" no trace of regret or apology in his words. "Where would you like that I put my hand" he said that with a glint of mischief. This man has no respect toward women, no emotions that last, classic womanazier. Who knows how much time has passed so I crawled out not paying atenttion to his words. When we got outside I saw a remnants of warm coral blush of dawn blended with sunlit pale blue. It was early in the morning, we missed out most interesting scene awakening of sun, something I enjoyed frequently. "Want you tell me your name darling?" his persistent tone followed me. Something was telling me that I will regret this heroic act so I turned to fix this situation if possible. "It's Raye" I looked right to his face not showing my emotions. His height was really impressive towering over me with his gigantic phisique although I wasn't small at all someone would say I had body like model. "I'm Damian" he extended his hand for shake and after few seconds I reluctuntly accepted. Being wary and cautious to meet new people was someting I learned if I wanted to survive on streets. He pulled me a little closer holding my hand firmly and I felt a pang of panic which I tryed to conceal. "I dont bite, yet" his wide smile reaveled perfect white teeth and all his face lit up. "Your wound?" I broke the contact abruptly trying to check on but when I touched his chest I saw there is none. "What happend to your wound, you were shot last night?" my eyes popped out in disbelief, there's no chance that someone can heal that fast. "Let's say that I can restore to my previous state very quickly, but that doesn't change the fact that you saved my life. So I owe you mine." he looked me so intently like he desired access to my mind to read every thought that I posses. Can he do that and what else he can apart from swift recovery 'cos he wasn't ordinary man I could sense that now when I payed more attention to his looks. I was a bit confused, 'cos it was ok to hear thank you in this world where people look out only for themself, being mostly selfish and greedy, but not to this extent. "Simple thank you is enough, you really don't owe me more than that. I couldn't watch someone being killed if I could help somehow" a genuine smile touched my lips and I curled them the way I do when I am pleased. "Why not?" it's like a bolt of light flashed throught his eyes when he looked me so throughly. It confused me the look and his eyes of marine blue transitioning into cyan the color so unstable that change so easily. In a moment a rememberd something Dotty was teling me year ago, about rich people on the hill all with blue eyes like his, tall and strong and girls beautifuly elegant like a fairies. Once she was so close being a maid in one of their mansions and she noticed that they are different of us full of refine sofistication, like it's glued to their skin she said. Later in the evening we were siting on the cold asfalt and looking into cool black midnight sky thinking about stories of nobility that runs through blood knowing we will never be part of it. "WelI I dont know, I simply couldn't" it wasn't something I was thinking about so I didn't know the reason. "I am in awe, you are so young and inocent with pure heart, I was lucky to cross path with you" like he knew he was strickingly beautiful so he used that smile of his to dazzle his oponent. But I am not person who can be easly impressed even if he was that kind of man that every girl dream of, dark, powerful with mysterius eyes. "Thank you for your kindness, but I need to go now" it was my time to move further 'cos I was already late with my plans and work. Suddenly he stepped in front of me blocking my path and changed his complete look into serious one "See, I can't just let you go when I haven't even thanked you properly. It would be very shamful not to fulfil my obligation" That stance meant threat so I was taken aback with sudden change of mood thinking why did he insist so much, what is it that he really want from me. My alarm started to ring buzzing like a bee making circles in my mind teling me run as fast as you can 'cos this is not the man for playing he is to much in control to strong for you. "I don't need your gratification for my deeds and if I done that it was because I wanted, not because of particularly you" my glare was pointed directly into his with equal passion. His tension loosed a bit like he sensed that I wasn't easy bite not a girl who would let someone walk her around on leash so he tryed something else "But I am indebted and I can't simply tarnish my reputation with no gesture at all. So it is my duty to make amends when I had put you in the first place in a very difficult sitauation. Maybe I'am a little a bad boy but I wouldn't harm my savior and my father would never forgive me if I don't bring him such a brave girl to meet. If you like you could come with a friend." he does have that kind of smile that can mesmerize you, a charmer for sure used to get everything he desired. "Where to?" my gaze was roaming through his expensive dark sapphire fabric custum made to hug on thighs and legs like lover, very chic leather choes, golden watch and classic cuban thick chain with huge pendant outline through white silk with one button down. Wealth screamed his name loudly when he offerd me his business card with his long and well groomed fingers and said "Have you ever been in those houses on the hill?" Slowly I shook my head lost with words because I recognized the address written on the card, it wasn't mansion he was talking about but castle. "Diner will be served at eight o'clock and if you give me you location I could send a car to pick you up." again he smiled with playfulness like he was completely sure I would succumb to his request and comply his wish. "No need. I'm not sure I will make it, but you are definitely in position to pay back a favor, so I'm sure this is not our last meeting. If I need you I'll find you, don't worry." with my final words I turned and started to walk in opposite direction trying to run away from this man who had nothing in common with me. Before I made my way to the corner I suddenly stopped and looked back so sure he was already gone but I was wrong 'cos he didn't move watching intently in my direction and my heart unexpectedly shifted to a quicker pace.
