Mikayla hung up her skirt on the
clipped hanger, making a mental note to take it home after her
meeting with Desmond Ritchie and his brother-in-law so that it
could be dry-cleaned.
Anxious to get out front, her
hands were shaking and her steps clumsy, as she hurriedly put
her things away and rechecked her makeup one last time.
Standing straight, Mikayla looked
herself over in the mirror. Normally after work she’d dress in
an old, comfortable pair of jeans, sweatshirt and running shoes,
but tonight that wasn’t an option.
For her meeting she decided to
keep her black halter-top on that she’d worn onstage, and
instead of her normal worn jeans, she dressed in pleated black
dress slacks that were comfortable, yet professional. On her
feet she still wore her heels with straps at the ankles. Though
her slacks covered the straps, they were her favourite pair and
she felt sexy in them.
Nothing like a pair of ‘fuck
me’ shoes to give a girl a boost.
Around her bare shoulders she
wore a sheer silk, red shawl that added colour to her outfit and
she just couldn’t resist the colour at all. Mikayla felt that
red was a ‘power’ colour, exuded confidence in the person
wearing it and brought out her blue eyes.
At least that was her opinion and
tonight she needed all the confidence she could get. If Desmond
Ritchie was for real, then hers and Matthew’s lives could change
forever.
Taking a deep breath and
resisting the urge to giggle in her excitement, something a
woman of thirty just didn’t do, she grabbed her small black
purse from the dressing table, spun on her heel and headed to
the door.
Throwing open the door, Mikayla
didn’t see anything but a large black blur coming at her then
she felt herself falling. Her purse fell from her hand as she
reached out to grab whatever she could to stay upright.
Landing on her back on the floor,
the fluffy grey carpeting at her back cushioning the fall,
Mikayla sucked in a breath.
Old Spice and an inebriating masculine
scent filled her nostrils and she opened her eyes. Looking into
the deepest pair of brown eyes she’d ever seen, she was
surprised to realize that a large man was lying on top of her.
A hell of a sexy guy to be exact.
Wavy, chestnut brown hair, deep brown eyes and lush, full lips
were all she could see. Never in her life had she seen such a
god-like, beyond gorgeous Adonis this up close and personal. In
many ways, this man reminded her of the actor, Matthew
McConaughey, but with darker hair.
Small differences didn’t matter,
McConaughey was her favourite actor, the man of many of her
dreams and fantasies as she pleasured herself in her own room in
the dark. Any man that could come close to Matthew McConaughey
in looks and what she believed he’d feel like in her arms, was
okay with her.
“I’m sorry, Ms. Gallan. The door
opened so quickly, I didn’t have time to…”
Hearing his deep baritone voice,
Mikayla’s body felt things it hadn’t felt in years. Desire,
pulsating need and wetness between her legs all registered in
her passion-filled thoughts as she stared into his brown eyes.
Licking her lips, swallowing to
wet her parched throat, hoping to vocalize some outrage or to at
least say something, Mikayla watched his eyes darken and stare
at her mouth. Heat pooling even hotter in her belly and between
her legs, she couldn’t remember where she was or whatever the
hell she was about to say.
This man on top of her, her arms
around him, Mikayla was certain that all was right with the
world. The building around them could have fallen down and she
wouldn’t have cared. Within his arms she felt she was where she
needed to be.
“Ms. Gallan? Are you all right?”
McConaughey look-alike asked, his eyes still watching her lips.
Wetting her lips again, she asked
in a still-parched voice, “Who are you?”
“Sin. My name’s Sin.”
Oh my god.
Mikayla couldn’t have asked for a
hotter fire to fan the flames but she felt like the temperature
had just risen another one hundred degrees. Just his name, said
in that deep voice, did things to her that should be illegal.
“Yes, sin you most certainly
are.” Mikayla barely had time to register that she’d spoken
aloud when he groaned and lowered his head.
His lips met hers in an
explosive, wet kiss that would have knocked her on her ass had
she not been lying down. Those lush and full lips captured hers
and their tongues met.
He tasted of all man and a faint
hint of peppermint. His hands held her head in place as if she’d
move it at any second and she felt the softness of his palms
resting on her cheeks.
Lost in the arousing and powerful
sensations of their kiss, Mikayla’s hands roamed his back,
feeling his corded muscles, making her shiver. Groaning into his
mouth, she opened hers wider, taking more of his taste and his
tongue into her mouth, hoping she didn’t have to stop kissing
him any time soon.
