Or it had just been so long since she’d had the attention of a man, and her body was telling her it was time.
She stood and sashayed a few steps from the table with a little extra sway in her hips. She glanced over her shoulder at Myles. He didn’t try to hide the fact he had got caught staring at her ass.
“Well, Officer Burton. You can sit here if you want to. But there is something that must get done tonight.” She tossed him a wink and spun around.
The sound of another chair scraping the floor gave her pause.
She had him.
A figure pressed close behind her.
Myles.
“I have a better idea,” he murmured, his lips ghosting over her ear.
Her body trembled at the feel of him pressing against her. Everyone else faded away.
At the moment, it was just the two of them.
“What?” she breathed.
His steady hand circled her wrist. He gently twirled her around to face him. She stared up at him, waiting. His hand came up to touch her bottom lip. His eyes darkened as they focused on her mouth.
“Come with me,” he whispered.
She didn’t know where, but she found herself nodding.
He took her hand and led her around the dance floor. His hand on her was comforting. They walked through the restaurant and stepped out of a set of French doors. The smell of the nighttime air filled her nostrils.
“Oh my,” she gasped, taking in her surroundings.
There was a long pier off the building that overlooked the river. Soft white lights twinkled on the railing, providing a little light.
At the moment, it was just the two of them. The music floated through the open windows. It was faint, and the new song was one that had a slow tempo and was romantic.
“It’s beautiful, isn’t it?” He pulled her closer to him, tucking her into his side.
“It is,” she agreed. It was a magnificent sight to behold. The river flowed before them, and Roxxy breathed in the scent around them.
They stopped at the edge of the pier without a word.
Roxxy leaned against the railing and took in the sight of the river at night.
Myles slipped behind her and trapped her. He bent down and pushed his face into the crook of her neck. He nuzzled it, and her head fell to the side to grant him permission.
He closed the gap between them, and her heart raced at the feeling of something hard resting on her ass.
“I think this is much better than me embarrassing myself in there trying to dance.” His lips brushed her ear.
“I don’t know,” she teased. “It would have been hilarious to see you dance.” She squealed as his hand came up and tickled her side. She broke his hold on her and turned around to face him.
His hooded eyes were locked on her.
“What are we doing, Myles?” she whispered.
She had to be going crazy.
She was seriously considering inviting him back to her hotel.
