waited.
He finally spoke. “Did you have sex with Fernandez?”
Oh, so this was how he was going to play it? Quid pro quo. She wanted his answer so it looked like she would answer his question, but it didn’t go unnoticed by her that he’d finally gotten Fernandez’s name right.
“No, I didn’t have sex with Fernandez.” She looked at him dryly, as if to say, Your turn .
He beamed at her answer. “Good.” He crossed his arms over his chest, nailing her with his look. “And the answer to your question is I would definitely encourage you to date a man like me.”
The two of them stared into each other’s eyes, the moments passing until finally she dug deep for all of the courage she could muster.
“Well then. I want you to introduce me to men like you at the party. This way, it will get you off my back about my choice in men and then I’ll be guaranteed a ‘one woman’ man who respects me and isn’t a liar or a cheat. How does that sound?”
He looked stumped for a second then he smiled, his wheels turning. “I don’t know how easy it’ll be to find a man who can compare to me,” he said with a cocky glint in his eye. “I mean, we only discussed the reasons why I wasn’t a player. We didn’t discuss the other reasons why I’m such a chick magnet. And I’m not about to ask guys how they are in the sack.”
She laughed at that and felt her sex clench at the thought of him in the sack. She continued with her courageous flirtations. Time to go for broke. “Well, the only other option then is for me to date you , so it looks like you’re going to have to start asking guys how they are in the sack.” Her voice turned husky and she leaned forward. “Because I want him to be good, Luke. Someone who fulfills my fantasies, who knows his way around a woman’s body.” She leaned in closer and dropped her voice to an even more sexual tone. “Someone who can make me scream. And who can make my toes curl.” She gave him a heated look and bit her lower lip.
He slammed his eyes into hers with his own heated look, and three seconds passed in silence until he let out a long string of words in Spanish. She had no idea what he’d said, but he didn’t look happy.
“Janie,” he growled and looked around before returning his eyes to her. “ Cristo , not only do you need a protector, you need someone to keep that mouth of yours in line.” He ran his hand down his face then lifted it to get the waitress. “I’ve been telling you forever your mouth was going to get you into trouble.” He turned to glare at her then pointed at her with his finger, “Don’t talk to men like that. Do you always talk to men like this?” He let out another string of curses in Spanish.
She giggled and shrugged. This was fun. “I’m not talking to all men like that. Besides, it’s just you.” She waited for his reaction.
“Newsflash, Janie. I’m a man ,” he nearly yelled. A couple of people looked over at them then continued with their meals. The waitress came over. “We’re ready for the check, please,” he said to her.
“Of course. How was everything today?” she asked, digging for the bill.
“Great. It was fine, thank you.” He pulled out some money and said, “Keep the change.” He got up and pulled Janie up from her chair before she even knew what was happening.
“I can pay for myself –”
“Don’t talk. You’ve said enough.” He pulled her along but even though his hold was gentle, his stride told her he wasn’t in the mood to wait.
Not wanting to make a scene, she kept up with him as they headed out the door where the same photographer lying in wait got off a couple more shots with his camera. Kenneth took one look at Luke’s face and immediately opened the car door for them. She heard Luke muttering under his breath, “Not all men, she says. Fuck.”
“Kenneth,” Janie said to the
