toward the reception
desk. “Yeah, he is. Plus, he has a slight accent I can’t place.”
    Carol nudged her in the side. “Hon, whatever you do, don’t
let that one go. There aren’t too many like him around, especially ones who
aren’t taken. If you’re not careful some other woman will snap him up.”
    She watched Tor come closer. “Don’t worry. I plan to hold on
to him. I just have to make it past this first date.”
    “You’ll do fine. He’s about five minutes early, but you can
go. I don’t mind covering until the next shift starts. Have fun.”
    “Thanks, Carol,” Kenna said as she grabbed her purse. She
then walked around the counter to meet Tor.
    He was dressed in a dark-gray, button-down shirt tucked into
black jeans. He looked sexy as hell. Kenna wanted to sink her hands into the
sides of his thick, black hair and plunder his mouth as she rubbed up against
his sinfully hard body. Her pussy clenched just from thinking about it. Maybe
sleeping with Tor on the first date wasn’t such a bad idea, after all. It had
been a while since a man had given her a good orgasm.
    “Hey,” she said as she closed the distance between them.
“You made it.”
    Tor smiled, flashing straight, white teeth. “Of course. I
wouldn’t stand you up. Are you ready for our date?”
    “Yes. My manager let me leave a little early. So which
restaurant do you want to eat at?”
    “I’m not sure. I’ve never eaten here before. You must be the
expert since you work here. Which one do you suggest?”
    “How about Tender Steak & Seafood? The steaks are to die
for. I also called and made a reservation just in case you wanted to go there.”
    “Okay. Sounds good. And nice thinking ahead to make a
reservation. I never thought of doing it. Shall we go?”
    Kenna nodded and fell into step beside Tor. He was so tall
he made her feel short, even in the high heels she wore. Not that that was hard
to do since she was on the short side, anyway. When they reached a group of
people who blocked their way, he took her hand in his and steered her around
them. He kept hold of her even after they’d passed the obstacle. A thrill shot
through Kenna. God, she had to be hard up.
    At the restaurant, Kenna gave her name for the reservation
and they were taken to their table. Once they were seated, they opened the
menus in front of them. She already knew what she wanted, but the food here was
on the pricey side. And she didn’t want to order too much just in case Tor
hadn’t expected to come to a place like this.
    As if he’d known what she thought, Tor said, “Order whatever
you want. Don’t worry about the prices. I have more than enough on me to cover
the bill.”
    If he insisted, she’d be more than happy to oblige. “All
right. Then I’m going to have the raw oysters to start, then the porterhouse
steak.”
    Tor’s gaze met hers across the table. “I guess I’d better
have the oysters as well. Them supposedly being an aphrodisiac and all, I don’t
want to be left out if you’re eating some.”
    He gave her a sexy look that had Kenna’s toes trying to curl
inside her shoes. She hadn’t even thought about what oysters were known for.
She just loved them and had them whenever the opportunity came up, which wasn’t
very often since they were expensive. She swallowed and licked her suddenly dry
lips. Tor’s gaze seemed to follow the movement of her tongue. A jolt of desire
shot through her in response.
    Their waiter came and took their orders, then left them
alone again. Kenna was the first to break the silence that had fallen between
them. “So, you never said if you were a guest here or not.”
    Tor shook his head. “I’m not. I live in Las Vegas.”
    “Do you come to the Luxor often? I don’t remember seeing you
before.”
    “No, I don’t. Actually, today is the first time I’ve come
inside the hotel. I’ve driven by it many times, though.”
    “Not into the casino scene?”
    “No,” he said with a chuckle. “I’m
