Maybe it was the tequila giving me a jolt of confidence, but I wanted to go over to him and see just how interested he was in me. I needed a distraction anyway, and he was a smoking hot one.
“Thank you!” Sara told the bartender after he placed the shots on the bar. “Come on, Aisling. Aisling?”
I snapped my eyes away from the guy and turned to Sara.
“See that guy with the blonde hair and tattoos? I think he’s interested in me,” I told her with an excited glint in my eyes. I then looked down at my black tube mini dress, hoping it looked as good on me as I thought it did earlier when I put it on. “How do I look?”
“You look hot, but are you sure you want to go up to him? What if he’s weird?” Sara asked.
“Only one way to find out,” I pointed out before downing my shot. While she grabbed two shots, I picked up the other and walked around the bar to the guy, who perked up at the sight of me and draped a leather jacket over his shoulder.
“I just wanted to tell you that I like your tattoos,” I said as I stopped a foot away from him, having to lean closer so that he could hear me over the music.
Holy shit. He smelled so good. Like leather and citrus.
“Thank you. I just wanted to tell you that I think you’re beautiful,” he told me, placing his hand on my upper arm as he leaned toward my ear.
A shiver ran through me as I smiled at him, struck by his piercing green eyes.
“I’m Aisling. This is my friend, Sara,” I introduced us.
“I’m Kai,” he told us as he nodded to Sara in a polite manner. “What brings you guys out here?”
“Girls’ night,” I quipped. “And I needed a pick me up.”
“Why’s that?” Kai asked, his eyebrows knitting together as he tilted his head.
I didn’t want to pathetically explain that I got kicked out of my apartment, so I decided to bring up my latest inconvenience today.
“I found a naked girl in my boyfriend’s bed today,” I told him.
Kai’s eyes widened.
“I’m sorry to hear that. I don’t know the guy, but he sounds like an idiot for picking someone over you,” he said.
I smiled as warmth moved through my body, creating a magnetic effect toward him that was so hard to resist. I wanted tonight to end on a good note, and I didn’t usually go out of my way to flirt with strangers, but he looked like a fantasy. Couldn’t I live out one little fantasy before dealing with reality tomorrow?
“You act like I’m anything special,” I replied as I lifted an eyebrow at him.
Kai chuckled a little and placed his leather jacket on the bar, exposing a design of a snake and swords on the back.
Sara suddenly pressed up against my back and leaned close to my ear.
“You shouldn’t be talking to him. He’s in a motorcycle gang. They’re dangerous,” she whispered.
I believed that she was being paranoid now. I saw biker groups riding together all over the city. I even heard of some raising money for breast cancer.
“You can go back to the others. I’ll be fine,” I assured her as I handed her the other shot.
“Aisling…” Sara tried to protest, but I turned away from her, prompting her to sigh and walk off.
“I think you are something special,” Kai told me as we steadily gravitated closer to each other. His hand settled on my waist as he leaned near my ear again, his breath tickling the shell of it. “I could show you just how special.”
Every inch of my skin vibrated with need, and a twisted sense of curiosity tugged on me as I came face to face with one of the hottest men I had ever laid eyes on.
He was so effortlessly charming and calm like nothing could rattle him. It was incredibly sexy, and after everything that happened today, I wanted to throw all caution to the wind.
“Show me,” I said as I put my hand on his bicep, feeling how strong and prominent the muscle was under his shirt sleeve. Honestly, I wanted to trace every swirl and line of ink with my fingers.
Kai grinned and grabbed his jacket before taking my hand, leading me through the dark club as red strobe lights flickered across the crowd who was too engrossed in the music and the drinks in their hands to pay any attention to us.
He led me to the single bathroom down a short hallway and pulled me inside, locking the door behind me.
The next moment, my back was against the door, his mouth on mine. I couldn’t stop the surprised but eager moan that broke from me as I curled my arms around his neck, holding his firm body against me as he grabbed my waist. Every touch burned so good, searing through me and warming up my skin.
