Aiza Clan Book 3: Unbound Trust

“You’re family. Family is everything to the Aiza clan,” she stated.

“Is that why you agreed to stay here with me?”

Her gaze flickered away, cooling to two dark pools. Those coffee brown orbs were enigmatic, bewitching. Mitch knew of no one else with eyes like them.

“Mostly. The rest of it is personal and very boring.”

“So far, your family is not boring. I doubt you are,” he told her honestly. “I know you are not boring,” he clarified quietly. Her chin lifted, bringing her up to his searching gaze, her mysterious depths grabbing his thoughts. Mitch wanted to lean forward, to be closer, touching her. He felt a surge of wanting when she licked her lips, felt it in his groin as heat pooled. The need to feel her lips against his own was so strong, a fire in his blood. Forcing his body to relax, he managed to stay right where he was. Why did he feel so drawn to her?

Her attention returned fully to him. “Have you heard from Roman?” She glanced at his laptop under the phone table.

Regaining his composure, he replied, “No, I haven’t checked.”

“I’ll be right back, if you want some privacy,” she offered and glided down the hall to the restroom. What was the saying? She looked beautiful walking up and even better walking away? It may not happen today, but he was going to get another kiss. He had to. The fact that he couldn’t explain the first one just didn’t seem to be deterrent enough.
