Why is that kind of hot?

“Oh, shit. Are you okay?”

Her voice soothes me.

She spins to face me and she steals all the breath from my lungs.

Magnificent.

Her big, round, deep blue eyes captivate me. A perfect contrast to her pale skin and jet black hair that blends into a deep purple in the curls at the end. Unique, yet stunning.

The air around us crackles. Time goes slow.

If I wasn’t turned on already watching her beat that guy’s ass, I sure am now.

Husky, well-spoken, a twinge of an accent I can’t place. Almost American but not quite.

I cough, clearing my throat, and stand upright.

Those damn eyes.

Thick black lashes and the dark eyeliner just draws more attention to those pools of deep blue.

I’m fucking lost in them.

“Sir, are you okay?”

The sternness in her voice makes my cock twitch, and damn it, it hurts.

She just punched me in the dick. Yet, the way the word “sir” rolls off her pretty lips is captivating.

A twisted smirk appears as I look her up and down. A black bikini top, just about covering her full breasts, a toned stomach, but her ass is covered by the skirt. Dammit.

I take a step towards her and take a deep breath. Vanilla. Sweet. Of course she is.

“I’m fine.”

I loom over her, my height emphasized by the way she tilts her head back, one eyebrow arching in curiosity.

And when she bites that glossy bottom lip, I lose it but keep my hands stuck to my sides so I don’t touch her. I can’t help but notice the beautifully intricate ink that spans her forearm. I wonder what else she is hiding?

“You want some ice for that?” Her eyes glance down at my crotch and then back up to me.

And just like that, my heart flutters. The hell is happening to me?

“Ice? I don’t think I need that. Maybe something warmer and wet?”

I lick my lips, and she does the same.

“Something that will get you absolutely soaking?”

Jesus Christ.

“Yes. The wetter the better.” I wink at her.

She twirls her black curl around her finger. In the light, I can see the strands of deep purple shining through, her nails pointy and sparkling silver.

Everything about her is hot as sin.
