"Sure, but only if we can get my sister and take her home." I'm sure we can arrange for something like that..." Can you also please let my mommy know ...hat I'm okay? She's got to beworried sick about me." Already done sweetheart," he said pointing to his earpiece. "She knowswe've got you and that you're okay."He made me hold back behind his men as they cleared the corridor. "Deargod, what happened to these people?" one of the men asked. "This lookslike a god damned war zone..." Were the Hellcats. I recalled the previous night, and the party, a singles mixer hosted by the apartment complex where my friend Steve lived. He invited me and I went, hoping to get lucky. I had no luck, though, although I mixed with enthusiasm and talked with several women. Then Steve appeared with two women, a young attractive one with long black hair and eager blue eyes, and a tall mousey blond who could have been old enough to be her mother. Steve introduced me to them, but that morning my hung-over brain. His brow lifted in query but the two girls just looked back at him with innocent eyes.He shrugged indifferently and handed it back to her, before walking away again.'So what was one more mystery? They were piling up so much now; that his head was beginning to spin.'Izzy felt sure that Daniel was sulking during dinner. He sat barely speaking, and when he did, it was surly one word answers, that killed the conversation dead."So Izz what did you do with your day?" You know it really is ridiculous. Feeling the urgency of his kiss deepened along with Ryan's probing tongue.Ryan pulled the blankets off the bed. Ilea was left alone, separated from Ryan by a thin sheet. Standing at the foot of the bed Ryan leaned down and placed his hands on the tops of her feet and slid slowly upward, massaging the shapely muscled calves that She liked so very much.At Ryan's first touch Ilea's arms rose slowly over her head, a gesture he knew, a permission a silent request for her passion, a part of her.
