Andreas,” he said smoothly as he
reluctantly released her from his grasp.
She felt her cheeks flush at the sound of
his name. Her lips trembled a bit as she continued to look upon
him.
Nicole returned in time to see the pair
staring at each other. She carefully observed their closeness as an
impish grin spread across her face. “Oh my. Eva, where have you
been hiding this one?” She promptly dumped the glass of water she
was holding and launched herself at Andreas, plastering her body
against his side.
Eva laughed slightly. “I found him, Nicole.
Back off,” she teased. She watched Nicole invading Andreas’
personal space with amusement.
Andreas seemed unaffected by the advances of
Nicole. His hazel orbs never left Eva and his lips broadened into a
wide smile. A dark chuckle escaped his lungs and he glanced at the
audacious girl hanging on him. “You heard the woman. I’m claimed,”
he said without missing a beat.
“I see,” Nicole said with a mock pout as she
removed herself from Andreas. Her eyes twinkled at him. “Just take
care of my baby girl, hot stuff. She hasn’t had cock since she got
into college.”
“Nicole!” Eva screeched out, her cheeks
burning hotter than suns. How dare she say that ! Eva thought
to herself.
Andreas glanced between the two but said
nothing. He was far too entertained.
“It’s true!” Nicole said with a defiant
snicker. “Now go get something shoved between your legs, Eva. You
can share all the naughty details in the morning. I don’t want you
back at the hotel until it’s light outside! Is that clear, young
lady?” She spoke in a commanding tone. A part of her felt slightly
uncomfortable about leaving Eva alone with a strange man, but she
had to admit that if their positions were reversed she wouldn’t
hesitate to jump his bones. She concluded that it was only fair to
allow her friend the same freedom.
Eva found her legs trembling at the words,
and the muscles in between her thighs contracted as though she
could already imagine Andreas sliding himself inside her. She
snapped out of those thoughts and fought off the alcoholic haze
that filled her mind. “Just go away,” Eva said with gentle
irritation, but Nicole was already off to find her own conquest for
the night.
Andreas continued to smile as he took a step
closer to Eva. “You have quite a charming friend,” he said as he
placed a strong hand on her shoulder.
The pressure was gentle and comforting. Eva
turned her blue eyes down to the sand and laughed nervously. “She’s
a great girl,” she said softly, “when she isn’t trying to get me to
have sex with strangers.”
A light chuckle escaped Andreas’ lips. “I’d
offer to get you a drink, but what do you say about some
water?”
She nodded and straightened her posture.
After all her dancing, she was beginning to feel dehydrated. She
could also use something to stave off the effects of the liquor she
had consumed. “That sounds lovely.”
The pair walked back over to the bar
together. James, the bartender, looked at them knowingly.
“Two waters, James,” Andreas said smoothly
as he took a seat at one of the stools.
The bartender looked a little surprised by
the request, but with a shrug of his shoulders he pulled out two
bottles of water and handed it to the pair. “Here you are,
Andreas.”
“Come out here often, do you?” Eva asked
with a smirk.
“Actually, no. It’s just a small island,” he
replied truthfully as he unscrewed the top of the bottle.
She raised her brow, scrutinizing him as
though she could discover lies in his face. Surely a guy this
good looking makes a regular hobby of getting tourists like me into
bed, she thought to herself. “Uh huh,” she said with a shrug of
her shoulders, before taking a long chug of her water. The cool
liquid passed down her throat smoothly, and she already felt the
daze lift from her.
He regarded her curiously for a moment. A
flicker passed of confusion shot through his hazel
