Right. Of course.She swiveled toward him and entwined her hands on her lap. “I travel a lot for myjob.”
He eyed her sheer cream blouse, lingering over her fuchsia bra and black mini-skirt. Tonight she’d dressed forhim.
And he’dnoticed.
After checking her out, he covered her bare thigh with his large hand. Shock waves traveled up her leg. The throbbing between her legs hindered her ability to thinkclearly.
“Pink is my new favorite color.” His hand vanished beneath the black fabric. His moan, slow, deep and filled with promise, turned her insides tojelly.
Though she wanted to reposition herself so he’d have easy access to her sex, she crossed her legs, instead. After pulling out a lipstick from her tiny handbag, she popped off the top and slowly spun the tube. Then, with her eyes on his, she placed the hard stick to her lower lip and ran the dark color back and forth. His lips parted and a low growl shot out ofhim.
The server set his drink on the napkin and Hunter dropped cash on the bar. “This covers mine and the lady’s. The rest isyours.”
With a grateful smile, the bartender collected themoney.
“Thank you for the drink,” shesaid.
He flashed her a smile, sipped his martini, then placed his hand on the back of her barstool. “Are you staying in thehotel?”
She wanted his hand on her body, not the damn furniture. Frustration tinged her tone. “Yes.You?”
“I am. We’re expected to attend a team-building exercise at Casino Night. I skipped out. That ballroom is so packed, I couldn’t hear myselfthink.”
“What do you do?” She held her breath, hoping he wouldn’t answer her question honestly. Nothing killed a fantasy more than thetruth.
“As little as possible,” he replied. “You?”
Relieved, she smiled. He’d stayed in character. “When I travel I like to see where the evening takesme.”
“I know where I’d like to take you.” His deep voice rumbled through her. His self-control and confidence had her feeling dizzy. Then, his large hand wrapped the back of herneck.
Her body hummed with desire. Every nerve fiber, each cell, vibrated and came alive. This man had completely undone her and they hadn’t even left thelounge.
As they stared into each other’s eyes, her breasts felt heavy. She could barely think, distracted by the heat between her legs. He stroked her bare thigh. Up and down, back and forth. The scent of his arousal had her hungry to have him and she released her breath in a long, lowhiss.
“Where is that,Huntah?”
“Tobed.”
Oh, yes.“I’m not that type of girl.” When she sat tall, her protruding nipples caught his eye and he grazed one with the back of his finger. Shuddering in a deep breath, she wanted him to pinch them, hard.More. I need more.“I don’t even know yourname.”
Behind the dark mask, his eyes turned stormy. “All you need to know is that I will bring you nothing but intense pleasure for hours. Why tell you my name if you won’t remember your own when I’m done fuckingyou?”
He’s a sex god.Quivering with anticipation, she set down the wine glass. She wanted to run to their suite and devour him.Now.Right now.But she knew better than to give in to the need so quickly. The building pressure between her legs meant a sweeter releaselater.
With a long finger, he moved her blonde hair away from her ear, pressed his mouth to her lobe and whispered, “Take a walk on the wild side.” Then, he bit her lobe. She gasped from the quick shock ofpain.
“We shouldn’t. We’restrangers.”
A devilish smile reached his eyes and he held her gaze for several seconds before pushing out of the chair. “And we’ll keep it that way. Turn left out of here. My suite is right down the hall. I’ll leave the door cracked.” He brushed his lips against her ear. “So much fun awaits us. Don’t belong.”
He exited and Alexandra sucked down a deep breath. With her heart pounding in her ears, she waited a few moments before following. No need to let on how excited she was to play withhim.
As promised, he’d left the door ajar. Several flameless candles illuminated the room and she crossed thethreshold.
Hunter waited in the corner chair.Naked.
With her heart pounding a frenzied rhythm, she shut the door. Several seconds passed while he devoured her from head to foot. Then, he rose. Beyond his devastatingly handsome face, sculpted body, and jutting erection, there was something about him that stole her breath. Even if she’d wanted to, she couldn’t have looked away. He commanded her full attention simply because heexisted.
