Only Tonight
Page 2
What I don’t expect is the vision that stops me in my tracks. The icy blue eyes that meet mine almost take my breath away. They are a blue that I’ve only seen while boating in the Antarctic Ocean. Her light blond hair only makes her look more like a goddess. I’ve been all over the world and have never seen anything or anyone as beautiful as her. It takes me a moment to realize I’m openly staring at her.
Finally I find myself heading her way. If she is my brother's soon-to-be wife there is going to be a hell of a problem. As hard as it is to pull my eyes from hers, I do in order to search her delicate fingers for a ring. To my relief, there isn't one, but I don’t miss the giant one on the finger of the woman she is talking to. I know in that moment that the woman standing beside my goddess must be my brother’s fiancée, Kennedy. It gives me an opening to go head over there.
“You must be Kennedy, the woman who has stolen my brother's heart,” I say to her. “I’m Luke. The charming brother.” That gets me a laugh from both of them.
“That I am. And this is my sister Kinley.” Finally I get to look back at her. This time a blush spreads across her cheeks, making those eyes of hers light up more. What would they look like in the throes of passion? Or when she is coming on my cock? I’ll know soon enough.
“You made it.” My brother sounds surprised. It was hard to pull it off, but I wasn't missing this for anything.
“Had to come see this for myself. I wanted to meet the woman who snagged your attention long enough to get you out of that office.” Kennedy blushes. “I can see why.” I wink at my brother. Which only gets me a glare back. He really is in love. I was only fucking with him to get a reaction. It worked. They seem to be the real deal.
“Did you already introduce yourselves?” He looks to his soon-to-be wife, holding her closer to him.
“Yes, your brother is rather charming.” Now it’s her that’s teasing him. I think I like her already. “What? It’s not my fault you’re not charming.” Kennedy giggles. “You’re pushy with a side of sweet.” She turns in his arms, running her hands up his chest until they lock around his neck. “Which is perfect because that’s my type.” A pang of jealousy hits me out of nowhere. It’s unexpected. It’s not her that I want but what they have together.
He gives her ass a small smack, surprising me. He really is in love. I’ve never seen my brother show affection to a woman. Especially in front of an audience.
“I’d hate to have to kill my own brother.” I put my hands up in mock surrender. I like seeing him this happy. He deserves it.
“I’m not trying to get married and have kids. I don’t poach,” I admit with a laugh. “Though I’ve never seen you with anyone before, so I’ve never even had the chance to consider poaching.” It’s so fascinating to see him involved with a woman that I can’t help but poke at him. I also want to reassure him.
“I keep my life private.” Kennedy shifts to his side, wrapping an arm around his back while resting her head on him. She’s just as in love with him as he is with her. “Are you tired?” he asks her. She shakes her head no. Even the tone in his voice changes when he talks to her.
“Are you a ladies’ man, Luke?” Kinley asks me with curiosity in her tone. I pull all my attention back to her—not that I hadn't been watching her out of the corner of my eyes the whole time to make sure she didn't try to slip away.
“Why don’t you come have a drink with me and find out for yourself?”
She gives me a playful smirk.
“Luke,” my brother says in a warning. I give him a look that says I know what I’m doing. This woman is going to be his sister-in-law tomorrow. I wouldn’t fuck this up for him. But I won’t be denied time with her.
“I guess I have time for one drink,” Kinley says, surprising all of us as she walks past me toward the bar.
I already know there is no way I’m going to be satisfied with only one drink. It’s going to take a lot more than that. I snag her arm as we make it over towards the bar. I notice she bites that plump bottom lip of hers as she stares at the drink menu. Images of my cock sliding in and out of that sinful mouth of hers flash through my mind.
