swaying and gyrating hips on the stage in a titillating combination. The blonde in the middle looked particularly beautiful. Her hair glistening in the bright lights, she moved with a grace that drew the eye. Andrea could feel Gage’s lust rise as his gaze followed the woman.
Feeling practically naughty, Andrea moved her hand under the table onto Gage’s thigh. She squeezed as she leaned into him. “See the one in the middle with the long blonde hair and the large chest?”
“Yes,” Gage rasped as Andrea’s long fingers began making their way up his thigh.
“Isn’t she pretty?” She brushed her finger tips over the bulge in his pants.
“Yes.” Apparently that was the most complicated statement he could make with her fingers dancing over his pants.
“I want you to think of us with her as I do this.” She moved her hand up to the fastenings on his slacks. With nimble fingers, she undid the hook and slid down the zipper, freeing his erection from the offensive material. She took him into her hand and stroked him with one long caress from the bottom to the tip, causing him to suck a deep breath.
“Do you like that?” she asked, knowing the answer before the question even left her lips.
“Yes,” he breathed.
“Can you say anything besides, yes?” She stroked him harder as his eyes tracked the sultry movements of the blonde on stage.
“Not. Right. Now.”
Andrea smiled.

Marcus sat outside his club, waiting in Stephan’s sleek silver Mercedes-Benz SL 65 AMG Roadster with the top down. Looking exhausted, Kat sank into the ash-gray leather passenger seat, letting it cradle her tired muscles.
“You ready to go home?” asked Marcus, trying not to notice how long her legs looked peeking out from under the black mini she had changed into. He turned the key and brought all twelve cylinders to life, starting their short trip home.
“Yeah. I’m tired.” Kat laid her head back, a sigh escaping her lips before she closed her eyes. The wind whipped her hair behind her in golden waves when they pulled away from a stop light.
“Marcus, can I ask you about Stephan?”
Marcus tightened his grip on the leather wrapped steering wheel. “Yes.” His voice was as even as the expression on his face.
“I have to know. Does Stephan really like me or is he just attracted to me sexually?”
“That is a complicated question for a vampire. Our desire is different from humans. It’s not just sexual, or bloodlust or companionship. Our hunger can be a combination.”
“So how does Stephan hunger for me?” she asked, turning to look at him.
“Honestly, I don’t know for sure. He has blocked me from his mind. I can tell you that physical changes come over him when you enter the room. His muscles tense, his testosterone increases, pupils dilate. I’ve never seen him react to a woman the way he reacts to you.”
“Oh.”
“In fact, in the two hundred and fifty years I have known him, he has never been so cranky. I think that’s because of you too.”
“Thanks a lot!” Kat shot him a perturbed look, and Marcus smiled.
“That’s not a bad thing. I think you have gotten under his skin, and he doesn’t know how to react. It’s making him edgy.”
“Huh, that makes two of us.”
“Yeah. I know. If you two don’t hook up soon, I’m going to have to move out. I can’t take much more of your moods.” Marcus laughed as he pulled the car into valet parking.
They rode the elevator in companionable silence up to the penthouse. Before the doors opened, Kat turned to Marcus and gave him an affable hug.
“Not that I’m complaining, but what’s this for?” he asked, wrapping his arms around her back.
“For being such a good friend.”
Marcus stifled a moan. It felt good to have Kat in his arms. He loved the way she felt against him, and he knew that if she and Stephan became a couple, he was going to lose the ability to be close with her.
