Page 9 of A Whole New Trick

His nostrils flare as I rise on my toes. “Kiss me.”

His lips curve into a sensual smile. The hand on my waist flexes before he draws me closer. My breasts press against his pecs. Heat curls in my chest. “I thought you’d never ask.”

His lips press against mine more gently than I expect. That quickly changes as my tongue runs over his lips before sliding inside. He growls, and whatever held him back snaps.

Danedevoursme.

Our tongues dance. Our teeth clash. The rest of the club fades away as all my focus rests on the man I’m falling into. He holds me upright easily. His hands move to my ass and squeeze, lifting me off my toes and pressing me more firmly into his hard length.

I moan. He swallows up the sound with his mouth.

I haven’t been this turned on since… well…ever.

“Morgan! There you are.”

I’m ripped out of my lustful haze, and reality crashes back into me as the sounds of the club penetrate my mind.

Dane growls in his throat, sending a jolt of heat to my core.

I pull away. The breath catches in my throat as I take in Dane’s heated expression. His eyes flick down to my lips. He looks like he wants to consume me whole. And I want to let him.

“Ahem?”

I force my gaze away and find Lacy staring at me with a Cheshire cat grin. Her eyes bounce between me and the sexy hockey player holding my waist. “How’s it going?”

I blush. “Fine.” I drop my hands from Dane’s neck and fall back on my heels, turning to face my friend.

She laughs and winks. “It looks better than fine.”

Dane’s torso brushes my back as he steps forward and extends a hand. “Hi, I’m Dane.”

“Lacy.” Her eyes glitter with amusement as they bounce between me and the Adonis behind me. “Nice to meet you.”

“Likewise.”

“I was just going to head out.” Lacy hikes a thumb over her shoulder. “The airline called, and they need me on a flight at noon tomorrow.”

“What?” I frown. “Can they do that?”

She shrugs, trying but failing to hide her disappointment. “I don’t know, but they have. I need to get some sleep before I’m due to report.”

“I’ll go with you.”

Lacy was looking forward to this weekend off. I know her well enough to know she likely needs to talk through this situation. She loves her job, but it’s become more and more demanding. It may not be the best fit for her anymore.

I step toward her but immediately remember the tall drink of water standing behind me.

Damn.

I whirl around, an apology already forming on my lips for my impending departure, but Dane speaks first. “Can I get your number?” he smirks. So we can pick up on this another time?”

I press my lips together but can’t hide my smile. “Sure.” I rattle off my number and then almost swoon when Dane captures my cheek with his hand and leans down for one last toe-curling kiss.

“We’ll talk soon.”

“I’m looking forward to it.”I’m really, really looking forward to it.

Lacy grabs my hand and waves at Dane as she drags my lust-drunk self through the crowded dance floor and the exit. She praises me for making out with Dane on the dance floor and tells me I better not ghost him until I do a favor for all of womankind and ride him like a pogo-stick.
