Russian:Vernost' delayet vas sem'yey.

Italian: La lealtà ti rende una famiglia.

Both mean loyalty makes you family.

The beauty steals another glance, and this time her plump lips curve into a breathtaking smile.

Christ. She’s exquisite.

I acknowledge her by tipping my head, and it makes her smile widen.

At twenty-one, I’ve seen the ugly and the beauty life has to offer, but this woman gives the word beautiful a whole new meaning.

She’s petite – feminine in a way that makes me want to protect her even though I know nothing about her. Her movements, the way her fingers wrap around the glass, the way her lips part as she takes a sip, it stirs something deep and primal in me. It wants to possess every inch of her.

Yeah, there’s no arguing, the attraction between us will ensure an explosive night between the sheets.

Knowing the club has a strict ID policy, and you have to be over eighteen to enter, I don’t have to worry about her being underage.

“Are you going to make your move?” Alek asks.

I shake my head, my eyes never leaving the woman. “Not yet. I’m letting things build between us and waiting for the right moment.”

“You let it build any longer, and the girl is going to spontaneously combust,” Alek chuckles.

“Wish me luck,”Armani says as he takes the two cosmopolitans he ordered for the women.

“Fuck that,” Alek jokes. “I need you to fail so I can swoop in.”

Armani gives us a confident smirk, then we watch him walk to where the women are seated. The flirty one lowers her lashes, giving him an inviting look that has Alek groaning.

My beauty’s features tighten with nerves, she grabs her bag, and darting to her feet, she leaves her friend to fend for herself as she hurries toward the hallway that leads to the restrooms.

Mmm… the little deer is skittish.

I tilt my head back, tossing the vodka down my throat and setting the tumbler down, I rise to my feet.

My eyes sweep over the VIP section, checking for any threats. It’s been ingrained into my bones to always be on guard.

“Happy hunting,” Alek chuckles, only sparing me a glance before he continues to watch Armani talk to the flirty one.

Walking down the empty hallway, I pass the door to the ladies' restroom then lean against the wall, waiting for the little deer to come out.

Minutes pass, and I’m tempted to go inside, but right before I give in to the temptation, the door finally opens.

The little deer doesn’t even glance my way as she comes out of her hiding place, and I grab hold of her wrist to get her attention. With a startled gasp, she swings around, and her bag slams into my shoulder.

The deepest green eyes widen on me, her lips part, and then she starts blinking as if she’s malfunctioning. “Crap… Sorry. I didn’t mean to hit you.”

I find her nervous behavior endearing and entertaining as fuck.

“My fault for startling you,” I murmur, still holding her slender wrist firmly in my hand.

The touch registers, and we both look down. I swear there’s an electric current zapping between us.

Christ, her skin is silky soft, and her bones feel breakable in my grip.

Another woman enters the hallway, and assuming she’s going to use the restroom, I pull the little deer out of the doorway. She comes without protest, and her obedience has my mouth curving with satisfaction.
