“Yes.” Oddly I did. His aggressiveness wasn’t scary because he was so comfortable in it. I could tell he wasn’t acting. This was his regular personality. His swag was off somewhere on another planet. He oozed confidence and it seemed genuine.

“We will have a good time. I guarantee it.”

I believed him.

It took us about five minutes to get ourselves together. I had to grab my purse and cell phone. We left all the other things behind. I was willing to go on an adventure with this man. I’d only known for a few hours, well about close to twenty-four hours.

Can a guy that damn good in bed be a decent man? I didn’t know. I had already text my sister and told her where I was and with whom. My coworker Brett also had some cursory information on Mr. Lordes Donovan. I was going to ride this wave for now and worry about the consequences later. I needed to have some fun. I needed to have that unforgettable sex.

Chapter Eight

LABRIA

Iwas walking on sunshine when I arrived at work Monday morning. I opened the store and Brett came in an hour later. He didn’t give me much small tall before he was all up in my personal business.

“Please, please tell me you kept your date with that handsome ken doll of a man?”

“I did.” I said as I placed new books on the shelf in the open space.

“I’m excited for you. You have to tell me everything. How was it?” Brett was smiling so widely you would think he was the one that went on the date.

“It was great.”

He squinted his hazel eyes at me. “Great meaning what exactly?”

“He was fine. The date was fine.”

“Modesty doesn’t look good on you.” He glared at me for a few seconds making me feel slightly uncomfortable. “O.M.G. you got laid.”

“Brett.” I tilted my head but my poker face was no poker face at all. He knew me to well. I made sure there were no customers around. The store was vacant. Thank God. “We had dinner and it was perfect.”

“Then what? That is not the end of this story.” He crossed his hands over his chest.

“It is not. We spent the entire weekend together.”

“You tramp.” He joked. “You went back to his place?”

“No, he got us separate hotel rooms. We stayed at the Hyatt Regency downtown.”

“He paid for separate rooms?”

I shook my head yes.

“But he didn’t stay in his room cause I can see the inner dick glow.” Brett blurted.

How did he know that? “Well not the entire time. Yes, he came to my room. How did you know that he came to my room?”

“Bria, you are fine as wine. If I were straight I would be all up on you. You are a gorgeous goddess. People with eyes can see.”

“Thanks Brett.” He was the best hype man ever.

“So, I need all the details. Is this guy loaded? Or is he loaded.”

“Uh.” I stopped placing the books to think about it.

“Is he rich or wealthy. He looked like he was legit well-off.”

“I don’t know. Didn’t you Google him?”
