Her Venice Affair (The Albury Affairs) Read Free Page A

should be illegal for a
guy to be this hot.
    He chuckled again, standing to his full height to
tower over her so that her head was on par with his chest, and dropped his hand
from her chin. “I’m glad I provided a good distraction.”
    Riana whined inside at the loss of contact, which
surprised her enough to bring her out of her daze. “What?”
    He lowered his head and Riana had to press against the
wall to try and move away from him. He brought his hand up and placed it on the
wall close to her ear and leaned even closer to her. Riana thought he was going
to kiss her, and it oddly excited her. She wanted him to kiss her.
      A total
stranger.
    Correction, a smoking
hot total stranger.
    He let out a lusty sigh and stared deep into her eyes
before shifting them to her lips. Riana swallowed audibly then ran the tip of
her tongue over her dried lips.
    “I wouldn’t mind providing another kind of
distraction. One that would leave you feeling very relieved for dumping your
ass of a boyfriend, just for his shortcomings.”
    “Thanks, but no thanks.”
    Riana jumped and turned to face Loraine’s voice but
the hot guy remained as he was—apparently not at all bothered that they’d been
caught almost— damn —kissing. Loraine
stared at her with a raised brow, an exasperated look on her face. She shook
her head and Riana could read the action— you
never learn Riana .
    He sighed and casually straightened, putting a very
large distance between them.
    Riana felt her face heat and she quickly looked away
from her friend and definitely away from the hot guy who had, moments ago,
cornered her with his large body and towering height, like a cat to a mouse.
    She bit her lips together to keep the smile hidden.
She liked being cornered by him.
    “Sir, your girlfriend is looking for you.”
    “Girlfriend!” Riana blurted out looking at Loraine.
    With a pitying look, Loraine nodded. “Yes,
girlfriend.”
    Riana turned to the man but he didn’t spare her a
glance. He just smiled that seductive, mind numbing smile and said ‘excuse me’
before he walked away confidently.
    Riana slumped against the wall and groaned. “Do I have
stupid written on my forehead? Because if not, I think I should. Brand my
stupidity right here,” she said, and smacked her forehead with the palm of her
hand, “so that I will always be reminded by every guy who sees it right before
they hit on me.”
    Loraine grabbed her shoulders and shook her. “You are
a waitress of a catering company and he is a billionaire entrepreneur. He
acquires businesses then tears them down and throws the pieces to the hyenas
for a quick buck. You do not want to be like one of those poor, unfortunate
businesses that he sets his eyes on. Allan Sinclair is a big no-no, Riana.”
    Allan Sinclair? He didn’t look like an Allan. His name
should be big, imposing, and downright sexy to suit him.
    Riana shrugged. “I wouldn’t mind for one night,” she
drawled the words out before even giving them a thought.
    “What?” Loraine half-yelled.
    Riana turned to look at the direction in which this Allan Sinclair had disappeared. She may
not have been conscious of it when she was with him—when his hot breath was on
her face, his lips inches away from hers, his body so close she could feel the
heat radiate from it—but now that she thought about it, it didn’t seem like a
bad idea. It would be one night of unadulterated, mind-blowing sex that would
put Claire and Steve’s affair to shame.
      Yes ,
she decided, that’s what I want . To
finally be at the receiving end of great sex that would make her scream her
lungs out and fry her brains, not the ten seconds Steve always gave her. Well,
she now understood why. He was giving it all to Claire and Riana was just his
by-the-by. For once she wanted to come first, both by action and deed.
    Loraine gently turned her face to the side. “You see
the super model dressed in hooker red going into the manager’s office? I don’t
