I leaned forward and whispered, “You are playing with fire, Candy. Be very careful, sweetheart.”

She brushed her mouth against my ear. “I don’t want to be careful, Bollard. I want you.”

I leaned back, staring into her eyes for a few seconds to see if she was already drunk, but she looked utterly sober and serious as hell.

She had no clue what she was asking for, but damn, if I wasn’t going to give her what she wanted. At least for now. “I should be done by two-thirty,” I said before turning and walking away from her, wondering if there was a way to close up early.

CHAPTER ELEVEN

CANDY

Iknew that I was playing a dangerous game with Mike. I had never done anything like this before, and even though I kept telling myself to stop and walk away, I couldn’t. From the moment he kissed me the other day, I had him stuck in my head like a bug on flypaper.

Finding out the sex was incredible only made Mike that much more appealing, and now I was determined to take advantage of the great sex—at least for a while—and then move along. Nothing serious would ever happen between us. I knew that. I was pretty sure that he did too. This was for fun, and we both seemed ready to play.

I could have stayed home, watched a movie, and gone to bed, but I didn’t want to. I preferred to tease Mike until he couldn’t take it anymore, then I wanted him to take me to bed. Maybe after we did that a few dozen times, I would get bored, and I could move on.

As I watched him move behind the bar, smiling at a woman as he slid a glass to her, I wasn’t so sure, though. When he turned from her, his eyes snapped to mine, and I saw pure desire staring back at me.

How had I never noticed him before? I mean, yeah, I guess I knew he was handsome, but I hadn’t paid attention to the raw sexuality of the man. I shivered with anticipation as I downed my drink and climbed off my stool to get another one.

I leaned on the bar, ensuring that my cleavage was nicely displayed. “More, please, sir.” He stared directly at my chest, a muscle ticking in his jaw. Then his warm brown eyes jumped to mine, and the heat in them made me burn to my toes.

He stepped away and spoke to the other guy behind the bar for a moment. The guy turned and checked me out, smirking, and then nodded. Mike walked to where you lifted the bar to get in or out and raised a brow.

Well, hello! I made my way over there, and he lifted it so I could pass under, and then without a word, he walked back through the door and straight to the stairs. I followed. I had barely reached the top floor when Mike spun on me. He pulled me into the hallway, slamming the door to the stairs closed as he pressed my chest to the wall. One of his large hands gripped my breast tightly as he rubbed his groin against my tight jeans.

“You want to tease me, Candy? You want to come in here and put those pretty tits on display? Well, now it’s time to pay. You prepared for that?”

“Yes,” I purred as the lust for him raced through my veins. He pushed his hips harder against my ass. He spun me around and grabbed both of my breasts, pushing them closer together as he leaned down and put his face between them. He dropped his hands to my waist and began to undo my pants in a hurry.

“I don’t have time to please you now.” He growled as he peeled my jeans back and tugged them off my hips. “But you wait until later tonight, and I’ll give you anything you want.”

“Promise?” I asked, and he spun me around again, grabbing my ass with both hands and squeezing.

“Yeah, sweetheart,” he growled into my ear. “I’ll fuck you all night long if that is what you want, but right now, I gotta be in you.” He yanked down the thin straps of my thong, and then I heard him undoing his jeans. It took him only a few seconds before he was sheathing himself in me. He gripped one of my breasts with one hand and reached around to rub between my legs with the other.

“Goddamn, Candy,” he murmured into my ear as he stopped moving for a moment. “You really did want me.”

“Yes,” I breathed. “Yes, I did.”

He thrust forward, and even though he said this wasn’t to pleasure me, I was right there with him as he began to climb. The two of us exploded together, and I was glad he held me up because my legs were shaking like I’d run a couple of miles. He kissed my neck and rested his forehead there for a moment.

“You are fucking incredible, sweetheart.”

“I’m glad you think so,” I replied, and he stepped back, removing himself from me. I turned and leaned back. “You’re not too bad yourself.”

“Pfft, yeah, right.”

I grabbed the front of his shirt and stepped forward. “Don’t give me that shit. You seem to have a meager opinion of yourself, Mike. I see you. I see what you really are.”

He frowned. “I gotta get back down there.” He quickly shoved himself into his pants and stepped away. “You can clean yourself up and come down when you’re ready.”

I watched him leave, feeling a little frustrated by how he did. I didn’t know much about him, but I could tell there was more than meets the eye. Behind his rough exterior, I think he was a sensitive man who wanted to change his life and build a strong future with a business and family.

Was I the woman to do that with him? I didn’t think so, but that didn’t mean I couldn’t help him. I used his bathroom as my mind began to spin, then I stepped out and went into his room. Beside the bed was a picture, and I lifted it to find Bryan in the picture with him and a few other guys. That right there was the number one reason this could never work.

I sighed, set the picture down, and headed down the stairs. At the base of them, I heard Mike’s voice in the kitchen, and I peered around the corner to see him talking to the chef about an issue. I was impressed by how he handled it, and I stepped out of the way when he came toward me.
