Anacosta Heights
Dupont Circle
Hawethorn Village
River Dale
Situated above the daily life of the city, Anacosta Heights is a tucked away suburb featuring extravagant neo-gothic inspired mansions. The inhabitants of this neighborhood often show their overwhelming wealth with sports cars lining their long, circular driveways, large pools, and manicured gardens. The homeowners of Anacosta Heights treasure their privacy as seen by the high iron gates to the security personnel present at every entrance.
Dupont Circle is a small suburban neighborhood settled within the serene portion of the southern portion of town. These four-bedroom, single-family homes feature back yards, porches, garages, and far more breathing space then the Village offers. This neighborhood often is more family orientated and even has organized events for children and the neighborhood as a whole.
Settled in the middle of downtown, Hawthorn Village consists of several victorian inspired row houses just off the main street. Due to it's convenience to just about everything, the village can be a tad expensive to live within. However, the residents of this neighborhood often have two to three-story townhouses, often with a one to two-car garage. Many of the houses feature bay windows and/or rooftop terraces with a small fenced-in 'yard'.
River Dale primarily consists of apartments that, despite their age and industrial appearing interior, still hold to the Victorian history that permeates the town. These apartments are often the cheapest option and sport scuffed, older wooden floors, open floor plans, visible beams, and the occasional brick wall.
I know enough about Kohl that I know he's not a relationship kind of guy. He's always been into one night stands. I've seen all the girls that came in and out of his house at all hours of the day and night. I'm not saying I saw more than one at a time or within so many hours of each other but when they did come in and out, they were never the same face. That was enough to tell me early on that Kohl is not to be taken seriously, at least not in that department. Of course, I never wanted that. I shut my emotions down a long time ago so that I could be the best hunter I could be. Kohl somehow took all that and tossed it to the side like last weeks' trash. I don't know how he did it but I'm determined that it never happen more than once, no matter how a part of myself might want it to. I made him wait a while and damn, did I tease him enough beforehand but that just made it stronger when it actually happened. My body was so sensitive and in tune to his touch, to his everything. I hate that I'm even thinking about it. He seems overly protective of me sometimes, like he doesn't want me to go out hunting alone and yet every time I invite him, he makes up some excuse to stay in for the night. I almost think he wants to get me alone again and make his move but I'll damned before I let that happen. I can't loose myself around him, not again. It felt good, right, but it can't happen again. It won't. His smirk is driving me crazy. He's so confident in himself and yet put a knife in his hand and he acts like he's holding a piece of hot charcoal. He looks a the weapons but I can tell he's not any more interested in them than he is about the weather. I also know about his power. How cheap that someone like he would be able to make someone attracted to him with just a thought. I wondered at first if he did that to me but my body and my heart say otherwise. I know it wasn't a trick. He may have suped it up some so I felt things more strongly while we were in throes but I honestly don't think he used it with ill intentions toward me. Now other women? There's no telling with him. I know he knows what his touch does to me. Just that look in his eye is enough to tell me that he does. I almost want to smack that smirk right off his face. He chuckles at his sly trick as he throws the menu to me but I put that idea to fire quick. He sits beside me and the electricity buzzing between us is almost all consuming. As I set it on fire, his eyes widen. I guess I surprised him. I laugh at his comment. "It was but it's only paper. Besides, fried is overrated. I like my food a little more fresh." The last word purrs from my throat as I eye him teasingly. Oh yes, I still like to play my games with him. He finally snorts and leans back against the couch as I stamp out the ashes in the carpet. He may be worried about it but I'm certainly not concerned with a black spot on my carpet. He's the one with OCD though. He looks around as if looking for something and I raise my brow in amusement. He won't be finding a tv in this apartment. His next comment has me shaking my head slowly with a sniff. "I bet you do. Target practice, for one." I tilt my head with humor. He watches with barely concealed amusement himself as I stand and grab my weapons. I laugh softly with a shrug as he brings up his IPad incident. "Yeah, I guess it did but seems like an awful waste of money." I reach out for his neck as I walk by and I can tell instantly that he's feeling some of the same things I feel when he touches me. I know he's watching as I walk away but I don't care. I kind of like the attention. When I glance back, he's grabbing his keys from the table. I sigh and shake my head in defeat. He heads to his car and tells me to get in like he's used to saying it and I give him a daring look, almost thinking about defying him in some way. Instead my lips twitch as I get into the passenger seat. "You know, walking would do you some good. You need to build up your stamina and your strength." I try to be serious, all the while watching his hands move so gracefully to start the car and start the driving. He moves his sunglasses into place and I have to hide the disappointment on my face not to be able to see his blue gold eyes for the moment. I laugh at his question. "Hmm, the west sounds like fun. Isn't that where all the action happens?" I snuggle deeper into the seat and give him one of those determined looks. I want to get into a fight tonight. I want to kill something and I want him to be there with me when it happens. If it was up to me, he'd be there for a lot of things, but of course, I can't let my silly girl emotions get in the way. |
