His fingers stoke the side of my face. I just stand there mesmerized by the way he’s acting around me. I feel myself leaning into him as he sways forward and speaks close to my ear in a low growl.
“Do you have a man, Angel?” The stranger asks, but I don’t have time to reply.
“She is MINE!” I hear in a feral growl.
Im yanked away from the handsome stranger, by no other then Ruk! He holds me by the waist firmly.
“No, not yours, it’s not your scent on her Ruk!” the man tells him with his voice laced in annoyance.
“You are not welcome Theo, go now! She is none of your concern,” Ruk growls at him, as Theo returns with his own growl.
What is with all the handsome men growling at each other like animals? What is he talking about, Scent! Is this a pissing contest?
Julian arrives moments later at Ruk’s side, as Theo’s friends stand in fight mode. Wow this is out of hand!
I step out of Ruk’s grip, into the space between both men, looking up at Theo.
“I’m sorry for Ruk being rude, and to clarify I’m not his! However, there is someone I’d like to be seeing. I’m Zara by the way,” I smile at him, hoping to avoid a fight from taking place, as he only wanted to speak with me!
“Ah, Zara, If this man is stupid enough to lose you. Come to me?”
“That’s enough!” Ruk shouts, making me jump.
Jeez what is his problem? This man has done nothing; all he asked was if I had a boyfriend!
“Watch yourself Ruk, know your place!” Theo tells him strongly.
His gaze travels to me, taking my hand in his huge one.
“Take care Angel, it was lovely to meet you.”
“And you Theo.” I say a little out of breath, from the way he is looking at me, I actually feel naked!
He winks at Ruk and Julian before turning on his heel to leave, followed by his friends. There is something different about that man Theo, I get the most bizarre sense of him being lost, needing saving!
I turn to look at Ruk and Julian with a raised eyebrow, as Abbey comes to my side.
“Are you ok?” Ruk asks steaming.
“I’m fine, why wouldn’t I be?” I ask as my eyebrows pull together.
“He is not someone you want to be around Zara, I was looking out for you.”
“He’s right Zara!” Abbey tells me.
He seemed ok to me! What is with these guys their acting as if I just excepted a marriage proposal.
“Oh well, I thought he was lovely, but thank you for looking out for me Ruk.”
He returns my smi le, leaning into me closely to speak in my ear,
“You look stunning by the way.”
I pull away from him, smiling gratefully at his complement. Why does he have to be so charming, making me instantly forget about the way he reacted to Theo, and their obvious dislike to each other? Moreover, why am I so attracted to these men? Back in England, not one man caught my eye, and then we come to America and BAM! Now for the first time in my life, I desire more than one man, what is going on around here?
Abbey and I go back to the Den’s table, now joined by Abbeys friends. They are all very lovely, we chat for a while together as Ruk and Julian come to sit with us. Everyone is noticeably relaxed, well except for Ruk; I can feel his eyes on me, following my every movement. I pick up my wine to take a sip when a shiver runs all through my body and my heart beats hastily. I look around to see if anyone else has noticed the change in atmosphere. They haven’t!
