Southern Desires

On a hot Savanna night across town, Phoebe And the girls hurried around for their big night at the new Hotel mansion. It was strictly tuxedos and gowns. The girls went all out with their hair , make-up , and dresses.

It was a night to remember hosted by one of the most richest men in Savanna.

He was a big Cuban who loved money, gambling, and women. He was tall, handsome, rich, and famous. The women wanted his body and soul, and the men wanted his money. Everyone wanted something from him.

He owned half of Savanna's most finest gambling joints and restaurants. He had hotels and tobacco crops, private vineyards and wine establishments.

He inherited most of his wealth, but he did very well. He had a mind for business…and women. He was known for being with the finest and beautiful people . From the president, to the most famous people in show business.

The girls arrived at the mansion in the black limo that was there to pick them up. It was the opening of a new hotel and he wanted everyone to attend. He had every guest picked up in his own private limo service.

The girls walked in and gasped at the exquisite arts and sculptures. From the gold spread through the marble on the walls, to the forty foot ceilings and the hundred tiered chandeliers.

He Cut the red ribbon and it shuffled across the floor, the crowd roared and that's when he saw her.

She was beautiful, young, innocent, and she glowed. He couldn't help stare at her as she marveled at her surroundings.

"Who is that divine creature?" Cole asked

"Oh, that's Miss. Phoebe Halliwell." Jim said. His accountant and personal friend.

"Miss. Hollywood"

"No miss…"

"I heard you the first time Jim…That woman is Hollywood if I ever saw it."

"I can arrange it"

"No, I can take care of this myself."

"Her father is Victor Halliwell. The president of one of our accounts, on the east side." Jim said sipping his drink.

"You know how I love beautiful things Jim."

They walked over to the ladies.

"Hello and welcome ladies, I hope you are enjoying yourselves."

"Oh yes, Mr. Turner, we thank you for your generosity, Piper said quickly."

Phoebe was breath taken with his dashing good looks and his deep rich southern accent.

"What ever you wish to drink or eat tonight ladies, help yourselves." Jim said.

Prue smiled at Jim.

"Thank you again, we'll be letting you get back to your celebration." Piper said.

They politely moved on, dragging Phoebe with them.

Cole just smiled at her with a pleasing confident smile as he swallowed his champagne. Like she was the only woman in the whole mansion.

There was hundreds of available women in the place, but he only focused on her. She was a genuine beauty.

They walked on, but Phoebe glanced over her shoulder at him through the crowd.

He winked at her only to make her soar inside.

"That dear boy, is a true Beauty. A one in a million. I truly must have her." Cole said.

Phoebe walked in amazement of her surroundings. Her sisters were mingling with the crowd as she wandered off to the library.

She studied the art and the rows and rows of literature. Phoebe was intrigued by stories and the history of the world. She often lost herself in poems and books of the romantic north shores and adventure. She was an innocent girl who dreamed of love and longed for a life of fulfillment.

Phoebe's thoughts stole her attention as she wandered around the room.

"My…you are a sight" The deep southern voice startled her, and she whirled around to face it.

Cole Turner was sitting in the sofa chair with his legs crossed perfectly distinguished as he puffed on his cigar.

Phoebe dropped the book she had pulled from the shelf to look at.

"Oh, I am sorry, I didn't know this room was occupied" Phoebe said breathlessly still holding her chest in fright.

"Don't be sorry…there is nothing more pleasing than a beautiful woman wandering around my home…well, so to speak." Cole said as he started to walk towards her.

Phoebe cringed at his arrogance but still smiled politely.

"Yes, this is a wonderful hotel, It is magnificent in fact" She said feeling uneasy with Cole coming closer to her.

"Yes it is" Cole said brushing against her shoulder as he walked by her.

He smelled like a sweet sent of cologne and tobacco. Phoebe couldn't help it, she liked how he smelled.

He picked up the book and placed it back on the shelf. Phoebe felt him behind her and she could feel her pulse racing.

"Thank you for distracting me from all the women out there…They seem to find me irresistible" Cole said brushing her shoulder again and stepping in front of her.

Phoebe couldn't help the look of disgust at his confidence and gagging self appreciation. But there was something he held back, it was a shield he put up. A numbness to his tone.

"Well you mustn't keep them waiting!" Phoebe huffed, as she stepped back.

Cole looked at her and smiled. Her sharpness and fire turned him on.

"Don't tease me, you just might get your wish little girl" Cole said, taking another step towards her.

"And what would that be? You are so full of yourself aren't you" Phoebe snapped as she backed into the fireplace mantle.

Cole pinned her against the mantle and pressed up against her. Phoebe swallowed hard and tried to act shocked and disgusted, when in truth she liked the game they had going.

Cole 's lips hung over hers and she tilted her head towards them. Her breath started to quicken and she put her hands on his chest to push him away. But Cole gripped the mantle and leaned in closer, barely brushing her lips.

"If I never see you again, I must know how your mouth feels inside" Cole whispered to her.

"Never!" Phoebe said breathlessly. She never took her eyes off his lips.

"I want you tonight" Cole said with a lustful voice.

"I can't…I won't" Phoebe whispered. All the while resisting less and less.

"I want to feel you from the inside" He whispered as he finally leaned in and gently traced his lips along her neck and down her shoulder.

He slipped the strap off her shoulder and kissed down to her caller bone.

Phoebe gasped and moaned, "I'm not that kind of girl!"

Phoebe grabbed a handful of Cole's black shinny hair. He smiled down at her with hungry eyes.

"Somebody will see us!" Phoebe whispered as she stared into his beautiful eyes."

She was in a trance. His deep accent and rough voice, strong fit body, dark and handsome stunning looks, stole her judgment and morals. She was being seduced by the richest man in town.

"Let them see…I don't care" Cole moaned

He whirled her around and brushed her hair to the side revealing the bareness of the neck, back, and shoulders. He ran his hands up her sides and up to her breasts squeezing them on the way by. Phoebe moaned and gasped with pleasure. She places her hands behind her to grab him. Cole sighed and moaned on her neck as she fondled him.

Just then Piper walked into the library.

"Phoebe!" Piper shouted just above a whisper.

"Piper!" Phoebe also shouted.

Pipers voice was like a cold picture of water splashing Phoebe in the face.

"What the hell are you doing!" Piper shouted again trying to by modest.

Phoebe started to run off, but Cole grabbed her arm. Phoebe looked at Cole.

"Stay…please" Cole asked quietly.

"I can't, I really can't do this" Phoebe said

"I have to see you again" Cole whispered in her ear.

"I'm sorry…I have to go" Phoebe whispered back

Piper grabbed her arm, "Thanks for your hospitality…I guess?" Piper said to Cole as she rushed Phoebe out of the library.

Piper and Phoebe rushed down the stairs to get Prue.

"Come on, we have to go now!" Piper said

"Why where's the fire?" Prue said sipping her champagne, "Phoebe, what happened to you? you are a mess!" Prue asked noticing Phoebe's smudged make-up and winkled dress.

"She was making it with Daddy War bucks himself!" Piper snapped

"What!" Prue chocked on her drink. "I'll get our coats"

"I can't believe it! What is wrong with me!" Phoebe shook her head as she desperately looked around for Cole.

Suddenly she meet eyes with him. He gave her a wink from the balcony as her sisters hurried her out the door. Phoebe felt warm inside and only wanted to run to him. Their moment was short but passionate and romantic…but very wrong.

"So, what the hell? What did you? How did you?" Prue asked shaking her head in confusion.

"He was so charming, and handsome, and smooth…I couldn't help myself" Phoebe explained.

"Oh, we have Cinderella on our hands" Prue said smiling in sarcasm.

"I don't think Cinderella pulled anything like that" Piper said.

It was silent for a moment then the girls started to laugh.

"You guys this is not funny, I am going to be the talk of the town!" Phoebe said.

"I'm just glad I came in when I did!" Piper said

"Phoebe you can not see him ever again, you would be the talk of all the tabloids and media" Prue said.

"I know, I know!" Phoebe said, trying to clear her head, "I just hope no one saw us! It was like he wanted to get caught"

"That sex maniac, he is known for his impulsive behavior." Piper added.

"How do you know?" Phoebe asked

"I read it" Piper smiled.

"This never happened" Prue said as they pulled up to the house.

The girls walked up to the front door. " Ok…re-group" Prue said and they walked in.
