Chapter 12
Chapter Twelve
Alexei
The leggy brunette in dark red heels had it coming. She was going to have me coming if she kept walking away in her skintight dress. I’d never wanted anything as bad as I wanted her and I hadn’t even seen her face yet. She was too busy entertaining my brother, Griffin, but she would find out soon enough that he was all talk and no action. She would get bored with him and when she did, I would swoop in. I couldn’t wait to swoop in.
She placed her empty glass of bourbon on the bar top and I wanted to know what it was. But more importantly, I wanted to know who she was. I got my wish.
When she turned on her heel and headed toward the house with my brother, my blood went ice cold.
Audrey.
Audrey fucking Wilde.
The sweats she’d worn to the airport made her look like she had no shape. The pantsuit she’d worn for dinner the night before had a similar effect. This… this dress was nothing like either of those. Her breasts were more than a handful and her ass? I bit into my fist to keep myself from groaning out loud.
What the fuck? What in the actual fuck? Her green eyes were bright and accentuated by dark makeup and her lips . They begged to be kissed. They begged to be fucked.
This was not good. Ace already gave me the run down about how I was supposed to stay away from her and then there was the boyfriend situation. I hadn’t minded a rough and rowdy night with a taken woman before, but I knew Ace wouldn’t appreciate that kind of drama coming into his life. I clenched my fists and paced the small shadowed area against the house. I would mind my manners when it came to her boyfriend, but that didn’t mean I couldn’t have my fun too. But what was Griffin doing with her? All the brothers got the rundown from Ace.
I thought it was laughable in the beginning, I’d even told him so. Why would I want to touch her? It drove me wild, so wild, in fact, that I’d sought her out to find out what was so special. What did Audrey Wilde have that my dearest brother didn’t want me to have? To corrupt?
The night before, I was hellbent on trying to get close to her to figure her out, to get under my brother’s skin. But this was completely different now. This was going to be interesting. I pivoted on my heel and shadowed my brother with his new find. This was going to be the best kind of interesting.
