Giselle twirled for the thirtieth time, at least. She still couldn't believe what she saw in the mirror. Janine grinned as she eyed her bestie. Long ebony locks gleamed as it cascaded down her bare back. The dress was tight, black and built for sin. The halter top and cinched waist accentuated her small waist and breasts.
They were ready to go.
Cloud nine was the hottest club in Manhattan and as expected the line went on for a block. Janine had worked there one summer so they knew her well. The bouncer grinned as he gave her a hug and just like that, they were inside.
Giselle surreptitiously searched the crowd for Liam, disappointed when she didn't see him.
" Looking for me?" he drawled in her ear. Giselle felt a bolt of excitement run through her as she turned and looked up at his handsome face. He was grinning and just like that she was sold. Her dark eyes danced with merriment as a feeling of being right where she was supposed to be settled around her.
" You're here," she breathed, eyeing his hard body encased in black almost ravenously. She had never felt like this with other guys. It was a minute before she realized that she'd said it out loud.
" Good." His wolfish grin made her roll her eyes.
" And while I'm practicing serial monogamy?"
" There will never be another female for me," he vowed solemnly.
Her eyes widened and he cursed himself for moving too fast.
" Never? Liam, you don't..."
He growled as he locked her within his embrace.
" Don't be afraid of what's between us.."
" Let's get a table," Janine yelled over the
din of the club.
" Janine Wilson, my bestfriend, Liam Alexander...my.."
" Boyfriend, " he and Janine choruses.
They laughed together and Janine felt the bond between them. She liked him and Giselle felt her heart swell almost to the bursting.
They followed Liam upstairs to the VIP booth he'd arranged for them and Giselle grinned at the opulence.
He allowed them to enter the booth , pulling Giselle into his side as she faced her pretty friend. Liam almost wished Lance were here so he could meet Janine.
" You were busy?" Giselle teased leaning into his side.
" Only the best for my girls," he answered smoothly. He put his free arm around her like it was a move he'd practiced a thousand times.
" So Liam Alexander, you like my girl huh?"
Giselle covered her face as she blushed crimson.
" I do, she's everything I've ever wanted in a female. I will never hurt her, you have my word."
Janine felt his sincerity and knew her friend was in good hands.
" This one's a keeper so I'm gonna go dance who knows maybe my Mr right is here tonight too."
