Forget Me Never by Sable Hunter (books successful people read txt) 📗

she could get a reaction out of him. “Well, today’s your lucky day.  Because I’m just what you’ve been looking for.”  She took one small finger and drug it down his bare arm from the bend of his elbow to his wrist.

“Hot damn, Baby.” Patrick hissed as he closed his eyes.  His whole body went into lust mode.  She didn’t know how right she was.  It was true, she was just who he had been looking for – for what seemed like forever.  “You have my complete and utter attention.”

“If I have your attention, then open your eyes, Patrick.  Watch me.”

Like his heart would give him a choice?  She didn’t know it, but he was completely at her mercy.  “Yes, Ma’am.”  He bet Savannah could get him to do most anything her heart desired.  Mesmerized, Patrick watched her every move.  She backed up about six inches, glanced around the room, and what she did next shocked the shit out of him.  First she graced him with a saucy little wink and proceeded to let her gaze slide down his body – and swear-to-God - she got hung up on his manhood like it was a speed bump.  Little hot-stuff looked his bulge over really slowly; he didn’t have to glance down to see what she could see, he could feet his dick rise as fast and hot as the temperature on a sultry Louisiana day.  There was nooubt about it; his cock enjoyed being at the center of her attention.

She didn’t stop there.  Oh, no.  Sweet-doll checked out his thighs, his knees – hell - she even stared at his feet, probably wondering if his size twelve combat boots were any indication of the size of his cock.  (It was, by the way.)  Patrick couldn’t help but chuckle as she took the time to follow the same path back up.  The little minx stared at his package until he was fully erect and throbbing.

“Did you get the response you were after?” He couldn’t help but laugh.  Damn, he wanted to touch her so much.  He was so happy.  Again, she smiled.  And he couldn’t help it – he grinned right back.   Patrick wanted to pick her up, twirl her around and carry her off into the sunset.  He was so glad to see her; it was like being reunited with a long lost friend.

“Actually, I got a lot bigger response than I ever dreamed.  I’ve never done that before.  One of my girlfriends did that to a guy at Mulate’s last night.”  Leaning close to him, she whispered.  “You are a lot more well-endowed than Leon.”

“Give Leon my sympathies.”  Patrick was enchanted.  “Are you always so bold?”  It didn’t matter if she was or not, he wanted her anyway.

“No, I’m not bold at all.  I’m usually very shy.”  A look of guilt washed over her face. “Gee, I guess I had better level with you.  I hate to start any friendship out with half-truths.”  She took him by the arm and turned him so they both faced the wall.  To quote an old Ronnie Milsap song, the simple touch of her hand on his arm was giving him day dreams about night things right dab in the middle of the afternoon.  She stood on tiptoe to whisper in his ear.  “Do you see my friend over there?”

“You mean the blonde with the mile-long legs?”  There was no way he could have missed the looks that she and Savannah had been exchanging.  Was he attracted to the other woman?  He might have been, if there had been no Savannah.  But since laying eyes on his Destiny – there was no other woman in the world.  “And by the way, don’t be nervous.  I think you’re adorable.”

“You don’t have to be kind.”  She spoke so off-handedly that Patrick realized she wasn’t taking anything he said seriously.  Now why was that?  He watched her glance over at the young woman behind the desk again who winked and gave them a thumb’s up.  “Yes, that’s my friend Tammany.  She’s very beautiful.”  Damn, she was caressing his arm, petting him and Patrick didn’t think she was even aware of it.  “She wasn’t going to leave me alone until I tried to ask you out.  But I can’t be mad at her; she only wants what is best for me.”

Teasing her was fast becoing his favorite sport.  “So, you don’t really want to help me with my research?  You just want me for my body?”

“Of course I want your body, who wouldn’t?  But that’s beside the point.”

The way she complimented him in such a frank manner confused Patrick.  “So what is the point?”

“What I’m trying to say, is that I’ll be glad to help you with your research with no strings attached.  And you certainly don’t have to be stuck with taking me to lunch,” she reassured him with a smile.  “Let me get you some information and then we’ll just walk out together and Tammany will never be the wiser, until I have to confess the truth later, of course.  I won’t lie to her.  I just don’t want her to embarrass us or pressure you.  She’ll leave as soon as Tulah gets here and you can come back in and work and forget you ever met me.”

Her expression was so sweet and unassuming that he wanted to kiss her full on the lips.  He didn’t understand why she was so doubtful of her allure.  And if she thought she was going to get rid of him that easily, she was sadly mistaken.  “Oh, I’m never going to forget you.  What if I want to take you to lunch?  Don’t I get a vote?”

“As much as I’d love to spend time with you, I know I’m not your type.  You are way out of my league,” she whispered to him.  “Now just play along and this will be over soon.  Come on.”  She grabbed him by the hand and pulled him over to the help
