CHAPTER 6: Adrian
––––––––
Adrian stood on the stage, searching the crowd for his partner. This was the second time tonight he’d almost lost her. The first had been when her boyfriend had shown up.
What an ass. He didn’t care how pissed a guy got with his girlfriend; it was never okay to say that kind of s**t about her, especially in a crowded bar. It’d taken everything he’d had not to walk over there and introduce his fist to the asshole’s face.
His gaze landed on honey-brown hair and his eyes roamed over her frame. That woman sure did have a nice ass but unfortunately, it was heading for the door. There was no way he was letting that happen.
“Ah, Des.” He waved at his friend. “My partner is trying to flee.” He pointed at the woman. His woman. At least that was how he’d been referring to her in his head ever since he’d seen her smile.
“Oh. Darn. I guess she doesn’t want to play.” Des gave him a mischievous grin.
“She does. I’m sure.” He’d winked at his friend. “If not, I’ll make her want to play.” Both on stage and later in his bedroom.
“You’d better. She’s had a bad night and could use a good present for Christmas.” Desiree turned on the microphone in her hand.
“Oh, don’t worry. I’ll stuff her stocking just right.” He laughed.
