frowned and, forgetting the cheap thrill, she sat up and pushed her foot to the floor, closing her legs. “You okay? Is it too late? Should I go?”
Wasn’t he supposed to be happy that she was here? Then why did he look so utterly confused? Almost like he hadn’t believed she would actually be there.
“Gia Carelli,” he finally whispered, his voice strained and his expression calm and controlled.
Gia frowned then smiled. “You remember my name. I’m impressed.” Or had he forgotten their pseudo date? A flash of panic constricted her chest and she battled against the thought that maybe his offer was more in the moment and perhaps one he now regretted? Oh God. She sighed and chewed on her lower lip.
Liam walked forward and turned, facing her. From this close, she could see that his glistening hair was actually wet, as in just-showered wet. Had he been in the house all this time? She shifted in her seat, moving her hands to her lap. Perhaps this was all a mistake and she should just leave?
He raised his hand slowly, extending it toward her, and he smiled, that dazzling smile reaching his too sexy, thunderous eyes.
Gia raised her own hand thinking that he wanted to help her up, or maybe it was to help her out of his house? She was no longer sure what was happening. Even though he was smiling at her, something was different. Then it hit her. Stone-cold realization whipped through her senses just as he gently shook her hand.
Her eyes widened in shock and she froze in place, her hand limp in his. There were no moles or scars above his eyebrow. She swallowed a choked breath and felt her throat constrict. The rush of blood to her cheeks betrayed the hot humiliation that rocked her body. She had just splayed her soaked nakedness like a well-done chicken in all her glory to Liam’s brother.
“Oh my God,” she whispered, her gaze fixed on his. She rose slowly to her feet, her hand still in his.
“I’m flattered of course, but Aidan will do.” He smiled and winked, his hand gently cupped around hers.
Gia pulled her hand away from the intense heat of his and licked her lips. “I’m so sorry, I thought that, that—”
“It’s okay. We get that a lot. It’s a pleasure to finally meet you, Gia. You are gorgeous.”
Gia stared up at him, her gaze darting across his face. From this close, she was shocked at how exactly alike they looked. If it was not for the small telltale signs on Liam, the scar, the mole, she would have never been able to tell them apart. For all intents and purposes, it could just as well have been Liam standing in front of her.
“Have you been waiting long?” he purred, and even the tone of his voice was exactly like Liam’s, warm, honeyed, and sexy as hell.
She shook her head slowly then sat down, her eyes still on Aidan. She wasn’t sure if she should stay or leave. This was too weird. Even knowing that they were identical twins had not prepared her for this. She shook her head in disbelief.
“You did know we were twins, right?” He arched his brow.
She swallowed, battling to regain composure. As shocked as she was by their likeness, she could not shake the embarrassment of having flashed him only moments ago and now he was standing there as if nothing had happened. But that was not her fault, was it? Liam could have at least warned her that Aidan was around, that he might be here tonight.
And, oh Lord, she had to admit, Aidan was obviously just as hot as Liam, and though her mind knew the difference, her body was a throbbing question mark of clueless frisson. She found herself as inexplicably attracted to Aidan as she was to Liam. Even that smoky, seductive look in his eyes, eyes that ravished her earlier, that were ravishing her now. God, what was she thinking? This was his brother. She had no right to even go there. She cleared her throat before responding.
“Yes, I’m sorry, I knew you were twins. I’m just shocked at how alike you look. It’s mind-blowing.”
