“Good.” He tugged at his tie, feeling a must tug it off and suck in some deep breaths. “It needs to be an ideal night time.”

He solely hoped he might tolerate her half-naked on stage whereas little doubt each testosterone-loaded man within the room bid for her.

She nodded serenely, at the same time as she white-knuckled her copy of the signed contract near her chest and mentioned cryptically, “I’m relying on it.”

Then she twirled away and was gone, the door clicking shut behind her. Leaving Aiden buzzing with pleasure and an adrenaline he hadn’t skilled in a really very long time.

Luna pursed her lips in entrance of the dressing-room mirror as she rigorously utilized her cherry-red lipstick. It’d been a bit of over twenty-four hours since she’d seen Aiden in his workplace, and already nerves twanged deep in her abdomen, her coronary heart beating out-of-rhythm and her mouth drier than sawdust.

It was insane to as soon as once more acknowledge it’d taken only one picture of Aiden in a gossip rag {that a} passenger had left on an airline seat, for Luna to know she needed to see him once more.

Not as a result of all her repressed feelings had rushed again with a vengeance, leaving her dizzy with their depth. No, it’d been the overwhelming gladness that it was Aiden’s brother getting married to the gorgeous, blushing bride, and never him.

She’d recognized there after which she needed to expel him from her thoughts as soon as and for all, in order that she’d not dream about him, and not examine each man to him she met…and located missing.

She’d requested per week’s vacation out of her work schedule, earlier than she’d flown again to the residence she shared in Sydney, Australia. It hadn’t taken a lot analysis to study all in regards to the Black brothers and their wildly profitable nightclub.

It’d taken a bit of extra to uncover the charity public sale. However the second she’d set eyes on the upcoming occasion, she’d been flushed with overwhelming rightness. Destiny had certainly conspired to carry them collectively. Not solely was the public sale completely timed, it was additionally the right instrument by which to get his consideration.

She capped her lipstick. He might need seen her half-naked loads of instances previously, however she’d been a lady then as a lot as a girl. And he or she meant to flaunt the distinction.

Click on-clack.

Luna was dragged again to the current as the primary lady of the public sale, a dark-haired, Asian magnificence in a string bikini, strutted previous her in towering platform footwear. The curtains swished shut behind the girl and Luna’s abdomen did a gradual somersault.

Shit. I’m actually doing this.

She might need discovered the fantastic artwork of confidence and poise; she hadn’t had a selection in her occupation. However to sashay on the market on this getup, holy smokes, she was going to need to placed on the efficiency of her life.

The viewers exterior the curtains hooted and cheered because the auctioneer obtained the bids began, and Luna drew in a steadying breath and eyed off her reflection.

She solely hoped her riotous spill of golden-blonde hair reminded Aiden of the lady he’d as soon as supposedly liked. She blinked. If her hair didn’t get his consideration, her outfit most definitely would.

The gothic leather-based bustier and matching studded collar had been sinfully depraved, whereas her teeny-weeny, white frilled skirt might need been angelic if it didn’t so artfully reveal her lacy white thong and garter belt. She flexed a foot in her fire-red stilettos that matched her lipstick, and absently admired her sheer, thigh-high stockings that subtly shifted with the movement.

Did she actually have the nerve to exit right into a room of salivating males like this? If she didn’t break her neck in these footwear, she’d both hyperventilate or faint the second she pushed via the curtain.

That is your likelihood to get Aiden out of your system as soon as and for all. That is your likelihood for empowerment and taking again management of your life.

Anticipation scorched via her veins, burning away her concern. In order that the second her title was known as, she was already armed for battle and able to tackle the world.
