Summer
* * *
It was electric.
Magnetic and hot.
Dancing with him was like nothing I’d ever done before.
Rhythm poured from him and our bodies moved together like they were made for each other.
This was what people called chemistry.
Every touch sparked a connection, a reaction. It interested me, intrigued me, and yet I didn’t even know my mystery man’s name.
That thing I felt,attraction, drew me to him.
I didn’t think that anything could make me forget the reason I sought refuge in this place. Dancing with this gorgeous man had proved me wrong.
As we moved I became more and more aware of his touch.
His hands on me, his hips moving with mine and the fact that he made no effort to mask the desire in the way he touched me.
He wanted me to know he was attracted to me.
We were dancing like we’d known each other long enough to be dancing this close.
Like we knew each other intimately.
There was nothing chaste in the way that we moved and I got lost in the moment and the feeling.
People were watching us and actually giving us our own space.
Gold lights beamed down on us and I turned to face him. Heat washed over me when I saw the intense lust in his eyes. It pulled me further into this enchantment.
Butterflies filled my stomach and fluttered straight to the pit of my groin, alerting me that I was completely turned on.
He took hold of my hips and pulled me closer so that our bodies were touching again. He then dipped his head low to my ear and whispered when the music changed so I could hear.
“Sexy, truly sexy.”
His face was close to mine and I was aware of his hand creeping down the hollow of my back.
“You too.” I whispered back, but my voice got lost in the sound of the beat that came back.
This song was slower, made for lovers.
We should stop here. I should stop because this man was making me lose control of my mind and I didn’t think that was a good thing.
That would have been the logical thing to do but for some inexplicable reason, I couldn’t move to leave him. That part of my brain was shut for business.
It had been a long time since I was touched this way. A long time since I allowed myself to be turned on.
A long time since I actually felt sexy, as sexy as he said.
The fire that took over from this new persona I’d created for the night had wanted me to tease and play so I did. Something inside me caved and allowed my emotions and inner desires to run free. I realized in that moment that that was what the drink had done to me. It stopped that part of me that held myself back from doing what my inner desires pushed me to do.
