“Let’s just say I may have found another way into the festivities. I’m also curious. Does the groom to be have a sister?” While using the lovely blonde in such an egregious manner wasn’t in my best interest, it might be the only choice I had left. If she was a member of the Warrington family, then it would seem karma had been kind to me for once.
“Yeah, he does but given she’s not a part of the business, I have very little on her. Next to nothing really. Both she and her much younger sister are nothing more than appendages, if you know what I mean.”
Meaning Rutherford was old school in his methodology. Women had no place in business. I’d say that would be a decent reason for the mystery woman to hate her father.
“Find out everything you can learn on the older sister and do it quickly,” I told him.
“Why? What are you thinking?”
“I’m thinking I might enjoy a Napa Valley wedding. Don’t worry. There won’t be a significant body count to worry about. At least not unless I’m threatened.”
Grayson chuckled. “You do like playing with fire.”
“Yes, I do. Call me when you learn details and send me everything you have on the wedding including the locations for the various events. If I need to, I’ll crash one of them. But I don’t think I will.”
“Do you want me to catch the next flight out?”
“Not necessary. I’m going to enjoy myself while I work.” I had other thoughts in the back of my mind, including someone it might be beneficial to talk to while I was in the area. Hmmm… I could be a devious man when I wanted to be.
“Just be careful,” he said as he laughed.
I chuckled and ended the call, sliding the phone into my pocket. As I headed toward the doors of The View, I realized my balls were tight as drums. It would seem I had a reason to seduce the lovely woman for a second time.
Not that I really needed one.
She’d awakened the darkness inside of me. It was suddenly as if I was a man possessed. I threw open the doors, storming inside. Once I was able to see the table where she and her friends had camped out, I remained in the shadows for a few seconds. I could indulge in having a partner.
The thought was brilliant, ruthless, and improbable. But I was a betting man. And right now, I’d say she was looking for a way to get back at her father.
Enter one badass enemy with an even worse attitude. When she turned her head slightly, I sensed she was completely aware she was being watched.
I wondered if her lace panties were as damp as before.
After a few additional seconds of wallowing in my good fortune, I headed toward the table she’d been standing at with her friends, determined that by the end of the night, she would belong to me.
The length of time would likely become a negotiation, but only on her part. I had no qualms about following through with my promise of taking what I wanted.
Goddamn, I was an evil man.
As I approached, two of her friends opened their eyes wide, one of them touching the blonde on the arm to get her attention. There was no doubt she’d sensed my approach by the way her body tensed. I also had no doubt she had plans on attempting to ignore me. That was her method of handling what she wasn’t comfortable with.
And she was confounded by our intense connection.
I’d never had anyone challenge me the way she had on the plane, which had added to the instant attraction. The seduction in the bathroom had only added fuel to the still burning fire. It was interesting how often the things considered out of one’s control were the most enjoyable.
As soon as I was within a few inches, I slipped my hand around her throat, pulling her back by two inches and against my chest.
“Did you miss me,prekrasna kvitka?” My whisper was husky and harsh. When I nuzzled into her ear, she issued a breathless moan.
She stiffened but remained quiet. All three of her friends were now glaring at me, ready to strike at a moment’s notice. The lovely blonde pushed her drink across the table, spinning around suddenly, her hand raised as I’d seen it do now twice before. She smiled as soon as I snagged it, even dragging the tip of her tongue across her bottom lip to tempt me.
At that moment, I was more than just tempted. I could keep her caged and locked away for years to come, playing with my beloved pet on a regular basis. Did she have any idea that she’d fallen into the clutches of a predator?
I cocked my head, making a tsking sound that I knew she could hear over the roar of music. “Aren’t you quick to react.”
“I need to when predators are involved.”
“Is that what I am to you, just a predator?”
