just
above her knees with a flare at the hem. She was probably considered of average
height, but next to him, she was tiny. Everything about her was perfect. Even
the splattering of freckles on her cheeks couldn’t detract from the smoothness
of her skin.
    He
was pleased that she had some meat on her bones as well. He liked a woman with
curves, and hers beckoned him. Her intoxicating scent rose delicately to his
nose and made his cock quiver in anticipation of taking her. When she smiled up
at him, her clear gray eyes were like a searing brand on his soul and the need
to possess her swelled up inside his chest.
    Oh
yes, he had to have Wilhemina. His fingers itched to touch her, and before he
could stop himself, he curled a strand of red silken hair around his thumb. Her
eyes grew wide when he pulled her closer as the music changed to a slower song.
Her lush, pink lips slightly parted, and his tongue pushed against his teeth,
yearning to find out how she tasted.
    She
stretched up on tiptoes, linked her fingers behind his neck, and he wrapped his
arms around her waist. He nuzzled against her hair and closed his eyes as he
drank her scent deep into his lungs. Most would have missed the quiet moan she
made, but it was rare that any noise escaped his superb hearing. The breathy
sound made his cock harder, and he let his hand wander down over her hip and
back up again, testing her responsiveness.
    She
pressed against him, and the fingers at his nape began stroking his skin,
giving him no doubt that she was as willing as he was. He wasn’t a man who
liked to play games. When he wanted something, he made his move, and game time
was over. Yeah, like with Alaina?
    “Come
with me.” He stopped dancing and looked down at her.
    “Where?”
She frowned.
    He
bent and placed his mouth close to her ear. “Someplace we can be alone.”

    Oh my God! Oh my God! Oh my God! This was happening way faster than Wilhemina had thought it
would. What did you think? Look at him.
Did you believe he’d want to spend a friendly night chatting with you? Aldin
was a man who was obviously used to getting what he wanted, and right now, he
wanted her.
    Could
she go through with it? She couldn’t deny that he excited the hell out of her.
She’d never known a man his size could move like he did. His timing had been in
perfect sync with the music, and she doubted any guy could look as sexy as he
had on the dance floor. She was certain no other man could pull off the
bad-boy, leather duster look like Aldin. Now he’d asked her to go with him so
they could be alone. She was innocent, but she wasn’t a dumb bunny. She knew
exactly what he wanted with her.
    She
wanted him as well, but her inexperience was nerve-wracking. Surely he’d figure
out soon enough that she had absolutely no idea what she was doing, and when he
did? What would he do? He’s going to eat
you alive, little girl. But wasn’t that what she wanted him to do to her?
She decided to throw caution to the wind. Here was a gorgeous man, the most
gorgeous man in the place, and he was with her. True, he probably only wanted
sex, but hadn’t that been what she’d originally set out for as well?
    She
couldn’t fault him for it or else she’d be a hypocrite. She could say no. She
had no doubt he’d step away and forget about her in two seconds flat if she
refused him. He didn’t seem to be a man who had to beg for what he wanted,
especially where women were concerned. She imagined all of the things he could
show her about sex, and her skin flushed hot and went tingly in anticipation.
    Was
she scared? As hell. But the excitement of being with Aldin, the need to
experience with him what she’d never experienced with another man, was enough
to give her the courage to go with him. She wanted him. It was that simple. And
she was going to have him even if it was only for one night. She had no doubt
he would satisfy her, and something inside her, something she didn’t
