“I’m Dom.” I held out my hand to her.
As if on cue, Jax appeared next to Craig and pulled him aside. “There you are, man. I wanted to talk to you about something.”
After a thorough examination of my hand, which briefly had me thinking she might leave me hanging, she finally grabbed it and squeezed.Hard.
Was she trying to intimidate me?
My cock’s already half-hard because of you, Darlin’. No need to try any harder.
“Sierra,” she said, her voice distant, before dropping my hand. “Didn’t your mama teach you it’s rude to stare?”
“My mama’s a Southern lady. Of course, she did, Darlin’. But in this particular case, I couldn’t help myself.”
“Oh?” She tilted her head.
“Aside from the obvious fact that you’re drop-dead gorgeous, you kind of seem like you’re on a mission. Sue me, I’m a curious person. Care to share?”
Sierra’s eyes narrowed briefly.
I continued to smile at her, unperturbed by the fact that the corners of her mouth hadn’t even twitched. I would get her there.
There was something between us, some kind of pull, and I had felt it the moment she stepped through the door.
“Possibly.”
I leaned forward slightly, my smile even wider. “Color me intrigued.”
Sierra gave me a slow once-over, then tossed her golden-blonde hair with practiced ease. For the first time, a small smile teased her lips, the upper one just a touch fuller than the lower one.
As I set my empty glass on a table behind her, I caught a hint of her fresh, floral scent — along with the unmistakable sweep of her gaze down my arm.
She was fucking hard to read, but I was pretty sure I had just witnessed a tiny moment when her walls had come down.
Her every move was calculated and confident. This was a woman who knew what she wanted, and I was salivating for her.
She took a step closer, and her fingers moved to the silver chain around my neck. Granted, it was a little flashy, but I liked to stand out.
Not that my height and tattoos weren’t enough.
“I like your necklace.” Sierra studied it carefully before looking up at me again.
Something inside me snapped, and I did the arguably most unhinged thing of all the unhinged things I’ve ever done — including this whole charade here.
“You can take a closer look when it’s dangling over your face.”
Sierra gave a slow blink. Then, she burst into genuine laughter.
“Of all the things you could have said, I didn’t expectthat.” She gave my chain a gentle tug, pulling my head down until we were nearly nose to nose. “Lucky for you, I’m into the whole Big Dick Energy, and your suggestion is exactly what my mission entails. How about it? Can you put your money where your mouth is?”
Chuckling, I quickly wrapped an arm around her waist and pressed her against me, putting my mouth right next to her ear. “I’m going to make you scream my name, Darlin’.”
A short, sharp intake of breath was the only response I got from her before she placed a hand on my chest and gently pushed me back.
“Chemistry test first. Kiss me,” she demanded, those blue eyes boring into mine again.
I scoffed. “We have chemistry, Darlin’. I don’t need a test for that, but if it makes you feel better.”
I certainly wouldn’t miss the chance to kiss her.Not even once.
