"What'll you
have?" When he turned back to her with his sexy
reddish-brown eyebrows cocked and a smile, Lyka forgot
her twinge of melancholy.
The man was free
of commitment and free to make his own choices. How
could she get him to choose her? She'd never seduced
a man, always going into a sexual relationship on equal
footing.
But her short deadline
changed all that. Throwing caution and good sense to
the corners, she advanced on him. "Just a piece
of ice, for now."
Rafael's brows dipped.
"Are you sure? I thought you wanted something."
"I do."
When she stood directly in front of him, she reached
around him, her breasts touching his chest. There, that
ought to do it. "You don't mind if I help myself
do you?"
The black of his
eyes turned smoky and a hand came up to curl around
her waist. "I don't mind at all." That knee
he'd used so well on the dance floor, found its way
between her legs, pressing upward to touch against her
sweet spot.
Once she had the
piece of ice between her fingers she dipped the crescent-shaped
cube between her lips, sucking its hard edges, melting
it with the heat of her mouth until droplets slid down
her hand and chin. "Ummm."
His gaze narrowed
and followed the path of one drop coursing down her
neck toward the V between her breasts. The muscles in
his throat contracted, making his Adam's apple rise
and fall.
If he liked that, he'd like her next move even better.
"This is good. I was getting so hot out there."
She smoothed the melting ice down her neck and lower
still.
Rafael's jaw hardened
and he reached out, gripping her arms. The ice cube
fell between her breasts. "Do you know what you're
doing?" His look was dark, dangerous and freakin'
sexy.
Her blood pounded
against her eardrums and thrummed through her veins.
"Isn't it obvious? I'm seducing you."
The bruising grip
held for several seconds longer and then his face and
hands relaxed. "As long as you know."
"I'm a big girl.
I can make my own choices." At least for one night.
Whether or not it stuck, was up to him. Damn. Once again,
she was at the mercy of a man's decision.
"And you choose
me?" A smile played around his lips. "You
don't even know me."
She smoothed her
hands across his shoulders and rubbed her cheek against
his. "I guess you're as good as any man."
With a flick of her tongue, she caught his earlobe and
sank her teeth into the soft flesh, gently nibbling.
"Thanks, you're
really inflating my ego." His groan belied his
bruised feelings.
"You made me
drop my ice cube." She hooked her leg around the
back of his knee and pressed her crotch against his
thigh. "You deserved a little punishment."
