Blink. Blink. Am I imagining?
I see Liam standing at the bar. My mouth drops open, and he’s staring at me with longing in his eyes.
“Is that him?”
I try to nod discreetly, but I’m not sure if my head is moving.
“Hot damn. That man is ready to eat you alive.” I swear she’s hollering and I’d kill her if I could move.
“I agree with Charlee.”
“You can’t," I whine not taking my eyes off of him. His dress shirt is unbuttoned at the neck. He appears relaxed.
“I can’t what honey.” Hunter is talking through her teeth with a smile stretched across her face.
“You can’t agree with Charlee. She’ll have me butt naked screaming the man’s name in the middle of S&J.”
“As if, you’re not thinking about it already.” Charlee waves Liam over, and I’m planning her funeral in my head.
He approaches the table, his gaze locked with mine. “Harper.”
The words lodge in my throat. Why God? Why am I either cursing the man out or a mumbling idiot? This isn’t fair. Then he smiles. “Ladies.”
I swear they stop breathing, and so do I. He is that fine.
“Join us,” Hunter offers sliding over. I turn throwing pin-sharp daggers at her with my eyes. She shrugs.
“I have a few minutes while I wait on my food.” Liam sits next to me. He fills the space, his leg rests against mine. His eyes turn blue-green unsettling me.
Uh-hum. Charlee clears her throat. But I can’t pull my eyes away.
Liam drapes an arm across the back of the booth leaning closer. “Aren’t you going to introduce me to your friends?” He pulls back with a mischievous smile on his face.
“You’re enjoying this, aren’t you?” Breathing and thinking is a chore right now.
“Enjoying your leg against mine, the smell of your perfume, the feel of your—” His hand is on my thigh, and I jump. A smile is tugging on the corners of his lips.
“Liam, these are my best guys.” I glance at them. “Hunter and Charlee.”
He leans over me shaking their hands, brushing his body against mine.
“I’m going to get you for this," I whisper for his ears to hear.
“Promise?” He settles beside me, and it feels like he’s done it a million times.
“So, Liam, since you got my girl all hemmed up. Tell us about yourself.”
I roll my eyes up to heaven. If I’ve ever done anything right in this life, help me. Please control Charlee’s tongue.
“That won’t work. But I think you should change your mind,” Liam says.
“About what?”
“Fate?” I’m frozen in time, and his attention is locked on me, as he said earlier, I had his undivided attention, and it feels incredible.
“We’re being extremely rude right now,” I counter loving the way we play.
Liam flashes his dazzling smile. “I’m sure your guys are ear hustling.”
