Excerpt:
Myra groaned to herself realizing she’d been set up.She’d been set up before with disastrous results, usually the guy losing interest once they met face to face and yet, Kentaro seemed to still be interested. She gingerly pulled her hand away from Kentaro, who was a bit reluctant to let go, smoothing out her sweater and skirt trying to calm her body down. Kentaro made her nervous and excited at the same time.
“I c…could show you around the house, if you’d like”, she smiled feeling awkward as she tried to keep wits about her.
“I would like that,” Kentaro beamed at her. The scent of her sex was becoming heavier with every second and it lingered in the air like perfume to his nostrils. He was having a hard time keeping his own body and animal instincts under control. He knew she was nervous and wanted her to feel at ease.
She was uneasy being this close to him. Didn’t he realize he was in her personal space? She could easily kiss him right now. He was so close she felt his breath on her face. He was taller than she at five foot nine and Myra being only five foot four. She looked into his eyes, his pupils looked vertical, almost cat like. His iris changed to a more yellow color, like eyes she had seen before. She blinked, thinking her mind was playing tricks on her. Was it her imagination or did Kentaro have eyes like a fox?
“Something wrong Myra?” Kentaro leaned closer, pinning her against her bedroom door, his arms on either side of her. His scent overwhelmed her.
“Ah nothing, I…I just thought I saw…” she stammered.
“Saw what?” he whispered as he nuzzled her neck and kissed her earlobe.
Myra swallowed hard as Kentaro made his way to her mouth for a kiss.
A hard knock on the door made Myra jump as Kentaro quickly pushed her behind him, his eyes narrowed, body poised and muscles flexed to strike whatever danger lie behind the door.
