Had the woman been here all along? The bar was small, and April had been idly watching the crowd all night. April definitely would have noticed someone like her. She simply radiated this cool confidence that made it impossible for April to tear her eyes away.
Suddenly, the woman turned toward her. Her eyes locked onto April’s across the bar. The woman smiled, an enchanting smile that made April’s whole body weak. A smile that whispered a suggestion into April’s ear.
April looked away, her heart racing. The woman at the other end of the bar had turned April’s legs to jelly with no more than a look. What could she do with a word?
A touch?
April’s skin grew hot. She had barely shared a glance with this woman, yet her mind was going off to indecent places. What was wrong with her? It was time for her to get out of here. She fished around in her purse, looking for her phone so she could order a ride.
“Hi.”
April looked up. The woman was standing right next to her.
“My name is Victoria.” She smiled. “But you can call me Vicki.”
