A Billion to One (Power Surge: The Billionaire Club 2)

He eyed her over. “You have the most stunning, dark green eyes I think I’ve ever seen,” Zane told her, staring down into her eyes. She felt exposed, and battled between falling for their obvious charms and holding her ground. This was a first.

Chiara wasn’t comfortable around such dominant men. Their presence and their aura made her feel submis

sive. She actually felt like her pussy suddenly had a beat of some sort. The small sensation aroused her. Holy shit, they’re making my pussy throb, they’re so sexy.

“Are you okay?”

She felt the fingers under her chin, and quickly turned toward Zane. She looked up and locked gazes with exotic blue eyes. Her lips slightly parted.

“Oh, yes, I’m sorry, I’m just feeling a bit light-headed. I haven’t eaten anything yet, and have been running around greeting guests.”

“Well, that’s understandable, but I wouldn’t want you passing out on me. At least not in a public setting.” He winked, and she felt her cheeks warm again. The man was lethal.

“Can I join you for something to eat?” Zane asked. She looked up toward Cash. He seemed to smile at the fact that she looked toward him, too. She didn’t know why, but she saw them as one. It was like they were attached or came as a package. That made her face burn even more, especially as she thought back to Heather’s words of being sandwiched between the two men.

“I’d love a tour of your home. Perhaps a bite to eat first? We wouldn’t want you passing out on us,” Cash stated. He gave her a wink and she just stared at him. His face grew instantly serious. It was like she’d insulted him or something. She didn’t mean to. This guy was complicated. She could tell.

“Shall we, Chiara?” Zane asked then looped his arm through Chiara’s and escorted her through the room.

They drew quite the attention, and she actually didn’t mind one bit.

Zane felt like he had the wind knocked out of him. Chiara Costiano was gorgeous. He actually felt like his throat closed up. This was not a common reaction to a woman that Zane was familiar with. One look at Cash, and boy, did his best friend look just as intrigued by Chiara. This was not good at all. If they did buy out her father’s company, take over Costiano’s, and perhaps sell it off for profit or revamp it, Chiara might be pissed off. Cash mentioned that her father had stated he didn’t want Chiara aware of any of this. Why? He wondered as they escorted her to the dining area.

Her stunning dress hugged her curves. The high slit on the silver near-sheer material drew his attention toward her toned thigh. From her perfect pedicure to her soft, light painted lips, she was a ten plus. As they walked, she eased her arm from his hold, either out of intimidation or a need for control. He didn’t mind that at all. The only regret in releasing her so easily was the loss of smelling her perfume and the scent of her hair. The way her large bust fit snuggly against his ribs was a turn on in itself. This woman was well built. No skin and bones here. Her long brown locks swayed as she walked, and even in very high heels, he still towered over her. There was something about a petite woman that really made his dick hard, and protectiveness consume him. He could see himself with a woman like Chiara.

Zane felt his cock harden and his crotch grow tight the further they walked. She had the qualities he adored in a sexual partner. Long hair, sensual lips, and a round, fuckable ass. Now if she had brains to boot, he may be in a bit of trouble.

He glanced at Cash, who gave him the evil eye, but also checked her out, even if it was inadvertently. Chiara had qualities Cash looked for in a perfect woman, too.

She had class. That was a given. She wasn’t throwing herself at them, but the night was still young, and she had large breasts and a gorgeous face. If Chiara had a brain to boot, and a bit of attitude, then both Zane and Cash were screwed.

“So, Zane, Cash, you didn’t say what business you were involved in with my father? Is it with security or something else?” Chiara asked as she took a place near the buffet table and began to make her way down the display of foods. There was a feast before them, and as the platters became low, more servers added additional food.

“We’ve done some business with him recently,” Cash replied.

She turned to look at them as they added some food to their plates. It was odd, but Zane felt like he couldn’t eat, and he was a good eater. As a matter of fact, it took a lot to fill his appetite. Staring at Chiara made him think that she would be a mighty tasty morsel he would never get his fill of. But he needed to stop thinking along those terms. They were doing business with her father. They more than likely were going to take over his company and buy him out. This may not sit well with Chiara.

“What kind of business?” She pushed for answers.

Cash spoke first as they walked near a large sitting area. She hadn’t taken much food. Perhaps she was dieting. Women were always dieting.

“To be honest, that’s between your father and us, Chiara.”

She widened her eyes at Cash’s reply and then she stood up.

“Well, there’s no need to be rude. I was just asking a question.”

Both Zane and Cash stood up, too, now. She looked so agitated. It was like she thought she could get them to disclose information, not in a bad way, but a curious way. Or maybe she was a spoiled brat?

“Chiara, darling, I’ve been looking everywhere for you.” The man’s voice came from the right, and suddenly Chiara was placing her plate down onto the small the table as a man approached and pulled her into his arms. She grabbed onto his shoulders in an attempt to stop him from hugging her. Zane wondered if he were a boyfriend as he wrapped his arm around her waist and pulled her against his side. Then Zane saw the man’s face. Pompous and pampered, he recognized him from the files. This was Costiano’s main guy, the president of the company.

“Marvin, meet Cash Corbin and Zane Heston. They’re business associates of Daddy’s,” she said as she tried to pull away from the man. Zane got the impression that she didn’t want to reciprocate the feelings the man was showing her. But he was twice her size, and the palm of his hand was pressed securely against her hip bone. It annoyed Zane.

“Business associates? You two look familiar.”

Zane didn’t have to glance at Cash to see his reaction to Marvin. They could sum him up pretty quickly, but they would give him the benefit of the doubt.
