her arm gently. “Hey, hey. Stop. Let’s start from the beginning,” I suggested.
    “Okay?” She looked at me uncertainly.
    I gave her a dazzling smile and pulled her towards me for a hug.
    “Hey, gorgeous,” I said as I kissed her on the cheek. I caught a whiff of her sweet, subtle scent that made me inch closer into her neck to inhale more of her essence.
    “Hi,” she said softly.
    “Did you stop by for something?” I asked. Our eyes met and I felt an unfamiliar warmth radiate through me.
    “Yeah. I”—she paused again—“I just wanted to confirm our thing on Friday.”
    I smiled at her. I knew she just wanted to see me. I had already texted her on Saturday to let her know that I was going to take her to Swan Oyster Depo on Friday.
    “You mean our date ?” I asked. Normally, calling a get-together with a girl a date would cause a negative visceral reaction from me. But for some reason, calling our Friday get-together a date with Alexis didn’t feel so bad.
    At the mention of the word, she gave me a warm smile, and I was happy that I had used the word. “Yes, our date,” she agreed.
    “Yup. We’re all set for Friday. I’ll stop by your apartment to pick you up at seven p.m.”
    “Okay, great. Thanks.”
    I chuckled at how sweet she was.
    “What?”
    “Nothing. It’s just cute that you thanked me just now.”
    “Oh,” she replied, and I saw her cheeks flush like a ripe Georgia peach. “Don’t let it get to your head,” she said boldly.
    “And there’s the feistiness I knew was coming,” I teased.
    She giggled and rolled her eyes.
    “Okay, I’ll let you shower and take care of business,” she said sarcastically as her eyes darted down at my still hard erection that greeted her from under the towel.
    I laughed. “It’s a shame you can’t help out.”
    She rolled her eyes again. “See you on Friday, Damian.” She then turned and walked away, leaving me wanting more of what I had just felt seconds ago.
    I went back into my apartment and closed the door behind me. I heard the shower still running in the bathroom and remembered that there was a girl in there, waiting to get fucked by me. I looked down at my cock, which was still up and ready for some action.
    I’ll just fuck her and kick her out. Why waste a perfectly fine piece of ass that’s ready, willing, and waiting?
    But when I got into the shower and saw the naked blonde waiting for me, I knew my heart—and my cock—was no longer in it anymore. I mindlessly went through the motions to achieve my climax and kicked her out after she had cleaned up.
    After the girl left, I sank into my couch and started watching ESPN.
    Friday cannot come soon enough. The thought popped into my head as I passed out on my couch, drowning in thoughts of Alexis.
     

 
    CHAPTER NINE
    Alexis
    “HEY, GORGEOUS,” DAMIAN SAID IN A husky voice as he pulled me into him—pressing me against his naked, hard bronze chest—and gave me a kiss on the cheek. My breath stilled as I felt his erection press against me.
    “Hi,” I said as my eyes darted to the erection poking out of the towel that was wrapped tightly around his waist. A part of me wanted to see it, to touch it, and to feel it, and yet another part of me wondered if he was in fact alone. I knew he was not a guy I could trust. I knew I was taking a risk with my heart to let him in. But I couldn’t help myself for wanting to get to know him better.
    “Did you stop by for something?” he asked. I thought I heard a hint of worry in his voice, but when our eyes met, all I saw was the richness of his warm, blue eyes and I felt myself melt into them.
    “Yeah. I…” I paused, trying to think through the fog that had covered my thoughts. “I just wanted to confirm our thing on Friday.” I really hadn’t stopped by his place to confirm our date. But ever since I saw him last Thursday night, I had been consumed with thoughts of him and it had been driving me crazy—so crazy that I’d acted out on
