Chapter 73: What Do You Say We Head Back To My Hotel And Continue?
"You're quite the smooth talker, aren't you? And I suppose you're right. I am too independent to be tied down, and age is just a number." Catherine nodded her head, liking the direction the conversation was going in. "But as for enjoying each other's company, let's just see how dinner goes, shall we?" She said, a hint of playfulness in her tone as she looked at Lucifer.
"Sounds good to me." Lucifer nodded his head as he looked into Catherine's eyes.
They continued to make small talk as they ordered their food and drinks. Lucifer ordered the lobster ravioli, and Catherine ordered the mushroom risotto. They also ordered a bottle of wine, a red blend called "Majestic," which complemented their meals perfectly.
"So, Mr. Reynolds, tell me about yourself. I want to know more about the young man who's so confident he can charm me." Catherine said, her tone playful as she looked at Lucifer.
Lucifer smiled at Catherine as he took a sip of wine. "What would you like to know, Ms. Laurent? I'm an open book."
"Hmm... Let's start with your hobbies. Do you have any hobbies? And please, call me Catherine. If we're going to get to know each other better, we might as well be on a first-name basis."
"Alright then, Catherine. To answer your question, I don't have many hobbies, but I do like to play the piano and compose music. I'm not a professional musician or anything, but I enjoy it. As for sports, I like to play football."
"That's interesting. You play the piano? I wouldn't have guessed that. And you're on the football team?" Catherine replied with an impressed tone, as she was not expecting Lucifer to be so musically inclined.
"Yep, I'm on the football team. And yes, I play the piano. I started learning when I was a kid. My parents thought it would help with my coordination, but I ended up just liking it."
Catherine smiled as she listened to Lucifer talk about himself, finding his confidence attractive. She could tell he wasn't lying or trying to impress her; he was just being himself, and she liked that.
"That's interesting. I would love to hear you play sometime." Catherine said, her tone flirtatious as she looked into Lucifer's eyes.
"I'd be happy to play for you. Just say the word." Lucifer smiled back at her and continued, "Now, what about you, Catherine? What do you like to do for fun? What are your hobbies?"
"Well, I'm a bit of a workaholic, so I don't have many hobbies. But I do enjoy reading, and I love to travel. I've been all over the world, and I never get tired of seeing new places."
"That's nice. I'd love to travel more myself." Lucifer nodded his head as he listened to Catherine speak. "Where's your favorite place that you've been?"
"Hmm... That's a tough one. I've been to so many amazing places. But if I had to choose just one, I'd say Prague. I absolutely loved the culture and the history there."
"Prague, huh? That's an interesting choice. I'll have to add it to my list of places to visit."
Catherine smiled as she continued talking about her travels. She told Lucifer about all the amazing places she'd been to and the adventures she'd had. He listened intently, enjoying her enthusiasm for life.
As they finished their meals and talked over dessert, Lucifer was impressed by Catherine's openness and wit. She was intelligent and had a good sense of humor. She was also very sexy, and Lucifer couldn't help but imagine what it would be like to be with her. But he knew he had to take things slow; after all, he didn't want to jeopardize the business relationship they'd just established.
"I have to say, this has been one of the most enjoyable dinners I've had in a long time," Catherine said as she finished her dessert, a chocolate mousse cake. "Thank you for inviting me."
"The pleasure was all mine. I'm glad you enjoyed yourself." Lucifer smiled as he took a sip of wine, his eyes locked on Catherine's.
She noticed the way he was looking at her and smirked as she replied, "I did enjoy myself, but I think the night is still young. What do you say we head back to my hotel and continue the conversation over a nightcap?"
Lucifer smiled at Catherine's boldness and nodded his head. "I'd like that."
"Good." Catherine said with a seductive smile as she got up from the table. "Now, let's go."
With a nod, Lucifer followed Catherine out of the restaurant, and they headed towards his car. As they drove towards the hotel, Lucifer couldn't help but feel excited about what the night might bring. He'd never met a woman like Catherine before, and he was curious to see how things would play out between them.
Catherine's hotel was located in a posh area of the city. It was a high-rise building with a modern design. When they arrived at the hotel, Lucifer parked his car and walked with Catherine to the entrance. Inside, the lobby was sleek and elegant, with dark marble floors and chrome accents. It had a sophisticated atmosphere that made Lucifer feel like he'd stepped into another world.
Catherine led Lucifer to the elevator, and they rode it to the top floor. When they stepped off the elevator, Lucifer was greeted by a long hallway with a plush carpet runner. The walls were decorated with abstract art, and the lighting was soft and warm. At the end of the hallway was a set of double doors made of dark wood, and Catherine led Lucifer towards them.
"This is my suite," Catherine said as she took out a key card from her purse and unlocked the door.
Lucifer followed her inside and looked around. The suite was spacious and luxurious, with a large living room area and a separate bedroom. The decor was modern and minimalist, with white walls and black furniture. The view from the floor-to-ceiling windows was spectacular, and Lucifer could see the city lights below.
However, despite the luxuriousness of the suite, Lucifer didn't have much time to admire it, as Catherine wasted no time in seducing him.
