Damn her. Stella had no doubt put Molly in the drink for herself but then, when she’d given Rian her drink, he’d gotten dosed instead. “Rian...I think you’ve been dosed with Molly,” she said with a worried groan. This was all sorts of bad. “I’m sorry! I could kill her for this. We should take you back to the hotel before things get out of hand.”
“What are you talking about?” he asked, rubbing at his eyes. “She drugged me?”
“How do you feel?”
“Weird. Like I want to...”
He didn’t need to finish his sentence. She could see it in his eyes and it took her breath away. A part of her wanted desperately to strip him bare and ride him as if there was no tomorrow but she knew that Rian wasn’t thinking clearly and it wasn’t right.
“We should go,” CoCo said, using the last bit of willpower she had to do the right thing.
“The music...the lights...” he groaned as he pulled her back into his arms. “Incredible.”
“It’s the drug. It heightens your senses,” she said, winding her fingers through his hair, unable to stop herself from moving with him, their bodies fitting together like two puzzle pieces. It was too easy to imagine how well they’d fit without the barrier of clothes between them. The tantalizing scent of his body toyed with her good intentions and she lost herself to the sensual awareness buzzing between them. “You smell so good,” she murmured, burying her nose against his chest, loving how strong and firm he felt.
“This is bad,” he said with a tinge of panic that snapped her out of her sexual haze. He shook his head as if trying to clear his mind but she knew that wasn’t going to help. The drug had to run its course. “I want to bury myself inside you,” he said baldly, his gaze hot and bothered, his touch urgent.
God, yes! Please do it! The words bounced in her head, but she managed to keep them to herself. The last thing either of them needed was to throw gasoline on the raging fire that was already crackling. “Let’s get you out of here,” she said, grasping his hand and pulling him away from the dance floor.
She was racked with remorse for dragging him here against his will and she could kill Stella for dosing Rian like that. Not for the first time she wondered if Stella was all that good of a friend but she had bigger concerns.
She motioned for a cab and one appeared within moments. After stuffing Rian into the back, she climbed in beside him. She had just enough time to give the cabbie the hotel address when Rian grabbed her and pulled her straight to his mouth and all restraint broke.
It was a free-for-all. Hands everywhere, mouths followed, legs twined together and lust surged. It was a dirty, desperate, you’re-gonna-regret-this-in-the-morning kind of action and CoCo had never been so aroused by one man. If it were possible to get any hotter, she would’ve combusted in a fiery explosion of skin and bone.
And she really couldn’t remember why Rian had resisted in the first place, because things were finally getting interesting.

HE COULDN’T GET enough of CoCo. The touch of her skin, the taste of her kiss. She was unlike anyone he’d ever been with and the clothes between them were an irritant that he couldn’t stomach a moment longer. Stumbling into their hotel room, they were ripping each other’s clothes off as he slammed the door shut with his foot. That tight dress was the first to go and suddenly there she was, standing in all her glory, naked as the day she was born, and Rian nearly fell to his knees to worship at the vision that was CoCo Abelli. This was why men sacrificed their souls to this woman. She was exquisite. And even though he’d gotten an eyeful earlier that day, it was nothing compared to feasting on every hill and curve as he dropped to his knees and drew her close, that delectable feminine vee beckoning him like a siren song.
Her hands went to his shoulders and he buried his face between her thighs, seeking and finding that sweet, pulsing core. She shuddered and his fingers squeezed her ass, invading her musky sweetness with his tongue until she was shaking and moaning, barely able to stand. Everything was ten times more visceral and the primal feelings raging through his body made him feel like a caveman taking his woman.
