“Hello,” he said, his voice smooth as butter.
“Hi…”
A slow smirk spread across his face and in that instant, I knew he was the finest man I had ever seen. The cockiness lurking under his expression made me suspect he knew precisely the kind of effect he was having on me.
“What’s your name?” he asked.
“Natalie.”
He held out his hand. “Nice to meet you, Natalie. I’m Colt. Can I buy you a drink?”
I stretched out my hand, letting him take it in his. He raised it to his lips and kissed it with incredibly soft lips.
“Sure,” I said, somewhat breathless already.
CHAPTER 3
Colt
I’d expected the night to be a dull and uneventful, but I knew that was about to change the very moment I laid eyes on her.
The week had been long and tiring, and even though clubbing wasn’t really my thing, I needed a distraction. I figured a few drinks and a couple of women would be enough to alleviate some stress before I went home, but after spotting her, I knew that she alone was what I needed for the night.
I was pleased to see she didn’t have a man with her; she had come to the club with a friend—a hot and feisty redhead. I saw them both when they first walked through the door, and although they both were attractive, she was the one I immediately wanted. Her flowing raven-black hair and those deep brown eyes, giving her an exotic look that I just couldn’t turn away from.
I was surprised she hadn’t sensed me staring sooner, but on the other hand, I guess that was a good thing. I didn’t want her thinking I was some kind of creep. Especially because I saw the way she shut down that other guy. I was glad she did. Because otherwise I would have had to intervene, and I didn’t want to get blood on my hands tonight. I did that enough in my day job.
When she finally did notice me though, I could tell the attraction was mutual.
As she stood beside me at the bar, trying to play nonchalant, I knew it was time to make my move. I offered to buy her a drink, and after a brief pause, she accepted my offer.
“So—are you from around here?” I asked as she sipped her strawberry daiquiri from a straw. Her lips curved into a flirtatious smile when she caught me staring at them. Damn, those lips wrapped around my cock would be better than that straw, for both of us.
She shook her head. “No. I guess you can say I’m here for business, sort of.”
“Oh yeah? What kind of business?”
The playful grin slipped off her face and she finished the rest of her drink.
“I’m sorry,” I said. “Forget I asked. I’m here to escape work stress myself, so I know what that’s like.”
“What kind of stress?”
“Just business.” I wouldn’t bother her with details. “And how do you like Turkey so far?” I asked her, referring to the club.
Her smile was dazzling. “I love it. I’m having a great time, especially when I’m next to a gorgeous guy like you.”
Nice. This evening was becoming better and better. I let my hand roam over hers, watching the goosebumps on her skin that followed my touch, and leaned in to her ear to say, “Well, you’re not the first to say that. I can have that effect on women.” I winked at her, throwing my panty-dropping smile at her. “You’re hot yourself. I couldn’t take my eyes off of you from the moment I saw you.”
Her breathing increased, and it just made my blood boil. She smelled so sweet, and I couldn’t resist the urge to move her hair aside and put my lips on her neck, leaving an open-mouthed kiss right over her soft flesh.
“Colt,” she murmured and angled her head to the side, allowing me further access to her neck.
Damn. That was sexy.
Seeing
that she was still gripping her empty glass, I took it from her, making sure our hands brushed against each other in the process. I leaned in toward her. “No more talk. Let’s dance,” I whispered in her ear.
