she felt completely lost in the moment. Mesmerized. That was what she was.
Joseph took her arms and placed them over his shoulders as the music changed. She had to reach up to keep them there and step closer. The man was incredibly tall, and she felt the power he possessed just below the surface. He was at least six feet to her five six. “Yes, you do look beautiful tonight,” he repeated as he gazed down upon her, taking in the ample cleavage revealed by the sagging neckline of her dress.
She found her voice. “Thank you,” she finally accepted the compliment finding her own voice raspy and seductive.
His fiery eyes gazed at her face, her hair, and then he looked down at her abundant bounty once more. He liked what he saw. And from the sound of her voice, she liked being in his arms too. He would definitely press his advantage and did so by pulling her closer so she could feel the attraction he felt for her.
The way this man was looking at her gave her confidence a boost. He was very attracted to her. That she could tell easily by his arousal pressed up against her. It made her feel powerful. That she could do that to him.
After leaving Boston, she had lost some of her nerve. But she hadn’t had much time for fun since she’d been back to Lantern Hill, or dates, or even nights out for that matter. Lately, she’d been wondering if she still had what it took to attract a man. When in college, she’d enjoyed her social life very much. But covered up by her uniform, and jeans and bulky sweaters around the house, she hadn’t had the occasion to dress up. She had to admit it felt good to do that again. And to dance. With a man. A very good looking one, who looked like he could eat her up, and not just the food she prepared.
“Real good.” He repeated. “And you are an amazing dancer, too.”
She gave him a shy smile. It had been a long time since a man complimented her on anything except her cooking. “You’re not too bad yourself.” Her voice came out a seductive purr, shocking even her. She was a bit rusty at this. But he hadn’t seemed to notice.
His only reaction was to pull her in even closer. “I’m so glad you are here. I was going to call you tomorrow. I wanted to get to know you better. Really better.” His suggestion caused her nostrils to flare. Her chest rising and falling.
“Is that so?” was her response. She tried to make it sound causal, but he could tell the woman in his arms wasn’t used to his blatant charms.
“I told you today I was going to call. I never lie.” His eyes were fierce. It made butterflies swarm in her stomach, and left her feeling breathless. His hands roamed down to her hips, and then just a bit lower to her legs, as he led her movements. She could barely think when those hands found the skin on her legs.
They continued to dance together, their bodies so in tune through the rest of the song. He’d seen his sisters start to return to the dance floor with Jewel’s friends, and figured it was his chance to get Jewel alone by buying her a drink. Get her talking before her friends and his sisters crashed the party. Plus, if she kept dancing that way, and rubbing her chest on his, he thought he might explode. That, or he’d take her upstairs this minute, and he didn’t think she was going to be that easy.
“A drink?” He offered as the song came to its conclusion.
She nodded her assent, and wet her lips with her tongue. He groaned, and stifled the urge to swoop down and take that tongue into his mouth, but she’d already turned towards the bar.
He followed her off the dance floor, passing his sisters and her friends. He gave them a quick wink and continued following the sexy woman he wanted to possess that evening.
Jewel looked dazed for a moment and paused while passing her friends, so Joseph pushed her ahead of him not giving her the chance to make the choice of rejoining them. Her slight delay might mean she was having a moment of doubt, and he didn’t
