STORY EXCERPT
“Chicks love bad boys.” Jacob winked, and they
both laughed. He was right. She looked too classy, even if those curves were
calling out to him. Jacob only hesitated for a half a second longer and thought
what the hell. Might as well give it a
shot. He downed one of the whiskey shooters, and just as he was about to
get up and go over to her, Steve returned and took them to a private table to
store their things before heading out to the dance floor.
Oh
man. She can move, too. Jacob’s heart
skipped a beat or two when she caught him watching her dance. She smiled
slowly, and he got lost in her eyes, blue-green like the ocean, those come-fuck-me
eyes you read about in Playboy. Holy
shit, Jake thought. They really did exist and they were right there, locked
with his own.
Eric had stopped watching the dancers
and was now staring at Jacob. “Whoa, brotha! I think you just got
thunderstruck. We need to get you out of here. You don’t need another broad
chasing after you now. You start your new job in Chicago at the end of next
week, and you leave Vegas in two days. Don’t you dare let another one mess with
your head!”
Jacob had to admit his little brother
was right. He had just come out of a messy breakup and really didn’t need to
hook up with anyone right now. He didn’t need the complication. But man, what
he wouldn’t give to explore those curves for the next two days. Jacob groaned
before he downed the last of his beer and the final whiskey chaser. He glanced
at his watch and realized his brother’s shift was over and there was no other
reason to stay at the club. “Let’s get out of here. I wanna stop by and see if
Derek will be able to finish my tat tomorrow.”
“Sweet! Those dragons are really coming
to life on your back. Derek is a fucking genius!” As they made their way
through the crowd to the exit, Jacob couldn’t help himself and looked back one
more time for the hot number in the barely-there red dress. He had a gut
feeling that this was one broad he wasn’t going to be able to get out of his
head for a hell of a long time.
“Quinn?” Miranda snapped her fingers in
front of her face and laughed. “What the hell just happened to you?”
“I don’t know. I looked up and saw this
guy watching me with the deepest blue eyes I had ever seen, moustache, goatee,
shoulder- length brown hair, earrings in both ears. I couldn’t look away.”
Miranda rolled her eyes. “Stick with the
plan, honey. I think Steve wants you for himself tonight. If you don’t jump on
that, I just might.”
Quinn’s jaw nearly dropped to the floor.
“What would your children say?”
She shrugged. “What happens in Vegas.”
Before Quinn could answer, Steve
returned. He circled her waist with his hands and pulled her close to him.
Miranda was dead-on. He wanted her all right. The proof was bumping Quinn’s ass
at the moment. She smiled at her sister, who winked back.
“Have fun!” Miranda danced her way off
the floor to finish her margarita and to chat up the bartender for his secret
to making them so fucking fantastic.
Quinn settled back into Steve’s arms,
letting him move her along with him for a little bit. She had to admit, she
loved the attention. He nuzzled her ear before turning her to face him, pulling
her arms up to circle his neck. Mmm. Dark
brown, wavy hair, salt and pepper stubbly chin, earring and dark smoldering
green eyes, double check!
“Where did your sister get off to?”
“Hmm? If I know her, she’s picking your
bartender’s brain on how to make the perfect margarita, and then she’ll go park
it in front of the roulette wheel for a few more hours. Subtle, isn’t she?”
He continued to hold Quinn tight against
him, moving slow and easy even though the song was hopping. “I’m sure you’ve
heard this before, but you’re drop-dead gorgeous, and I can’t keep my hands off
of you.”
Got
him! “I don’t recall asking you to keep
your hands off of me.”
He leaned down and nibbled on her
earlobe. “Stay with me tonight, Quinn. I have a suite here at the casino with a
big round bed, Jacuzzi, and private pool. I want to do naughty things with you
all night long.”
Quinn flashed her wedding rings at him.
He just shrugged. “Doesn’t bother me in the least. If a man can let a woman
like you go to Vegas without him, then he is a fool.”
“That
he is. Got an extra toothbrush in that suite of yours?”
“I think I can rustle one up for you.”
His lips brushed hers, and heat flashed through her. Quinn was more than ready
for this. Steve led her off the floor and over to his private table to collect
her things. Miranda had left a note. Have
fun and see you in the morning. She was a smart-ass, but Quinn loved her!
Steve took her hand and led her over to
a private elevator for VIPs. She’d never imagined she’d catch the eye of a sexy
club owner on their first night in Vegas! She wondered what it was going to be
like to get him alone and away from the loud music. She didn’t have very long
to wonder.
ADULT EXCERPT
As soon as the doors closed, he pinned
her in the corner. “I’ve wanted to do this from the moment I saw you step out
of the elevators tonight.” His lips touched hers once again, softly at first,
and then after teasing her a little with his tongue, he dove right in, picking
Quinn up at the waist and lifting her up so that she was sitting on the
railing. His hand trailed up her thigh and under her dress. His fingertips
gently teased her clit a bit, making her gasp, breaking their deep kiss. “I
knew it. Your dress fits you like a glove. No way in hell you were wearing
anything under it.”
“I’m glad you approve.” Quinn wrapped
her legs around his waist as he picked her up off of the railing and carried
her through the doors into his suite, the penthouse suite, no less! Now their
lips and tongues battled each other for control, neither one of them willing to
yield just yet. Quinn could feel his cock straining to get out of his pants and
into her. Her pussy throbbed and cum already started to coat her inner thighs.
She forced herself to come back to earth. “We need to slow down a second.”
Steve smiled again and her mind nearly
went to mush. He put her back on her feet, keeping one hand on her waist, while
the other pulled a condom out of his pocket. “Like the boy scouts say, always
be prepared.”
“I knew there was something I liked
about you besides your killer smile.” She wrapped her arms around his neck
tighter as his mouth crushed hers once again. She loved the feel of his hands
on her body and the heat that zipped through her with every single touch and
kiss. She wanted more, so much more.
“Quinn, I don’t know if I can wait much
longer. I have to have you, baby.”
“What’s stopping you?” She bit his
earlobe a little, and that was all the signal he needed. He lifted her up into
his arms again and pinned her against the wall in the entryway. Quinn held on
tight to his neck and shoulders while he unbuckled his pants, freeing up his
huge cock. He ripped open the condom wrapper with his teeth, and before Quinn
could catch her breath he nearly split her in two as he entered her. She was
already hot and so wet that he slid in quickly. She was so surprised at his
size that she dug her nails into his back a little too hard. Quinn didn’t think
he minded one bit. He groaned as his cock filled her cunt completely, stroking
every single inch of her. Her body shuddered wildly as the first orgasm hit
her. She moaned as Steve broke their kiss, leaving her a bit breathless.
“Good god, your pussy is fucking
fantastic. I can feel every single inch of you pulling me in.” He shifted
positions so that he had her legs over his arms, and he spread her wider. He
kept pounding her against the wall, thrusting deeper still. He felt so good
stroking her and hitting every sensitive spot. Wave after wave of ecstasy ran
through her. She came over and over again, her cum continuously squirting out
of her and over Steve. “You’re so hot and wet. I can’t get enough of you.”
“Jesus Christ, your cock is so fucking
big. Harder, baby, harder.” Quinn was lost in her own climax, and then Steve’s
arms tightened around her as he groaned against her tits. His thrusts slowed,
and he pulled back to look into her eyes. Both of them were panting trying to
catch their breath. His cock was still buried deep inside of her and rock-hard.
Now he kept eye contact as he moved in and out of her. He changed position
again so that he had her wrapped around him and his hands on her ass, moving
her up and down his shaft. Quinn straightened her legs and pointed her toes as
a very powerful orgasm hit her, and she couldn’t hold back a scream. That did
it for him. He came right along with her, their bodies shuddering together.
Steve leaned into her, a smile gradually
forming on that gorgeous mouth of his. “Goddamn, woman. If this is any preview
of what we will be doing together the rest of the night, I don’t know if I am
going to be able to let you leave here in the morning.”
Quinn nibbled on his stubbly chin a bit
before pulling his mouth back to hers. “How about you give me a tour of the
rest of your place and we will just let things happen as they happen.”
Steve moved both of them away from the
wall but still kept his hands firmly on Quinn’s ass, letting her legs slowly
slide down his body until her heels hit the floor again. “You better hang on to
me for a little longer. I don’t know if I can walk normally just yet.”
He moved his fingers lightly up and down
her bare back, sending shivers through her once again. “I don’t think that will
be a problem at all, Quinn. You’ve put some kind of spell over me, and I can’t
keep my hands off of you.”
“Well, your hands feel awfully good on
my body, and so do your lips, your tongue, and that welcoming committee you
have stuffed in your pants!” Good lord! Quinn had never fucked anyone with a
cock that big, and he sure did know how to use it. Miranda was going to faint
when she heard about this!
