I walked into the clean, wide tattoo shop, to find a large red head lady sitting at the counter at her computer. As I walked up, she smiled and asked who I was booked for. "I'm here for my thigh, Johnny William" Smiling nervously at her wide grin. I saw a very tall, tanned well built man over near the tattoo seating. Putting his black plastic gloves on, then he looked over his shoulder directly at me. A small, evil smirk sunk into my soul. And his piercing rich green eyes darkened.

I took in a sharp breath at the abruptness of his movements. My back hit the wall and his hands went on each side of my head, his pelvis pressing against mine in order to keep me from leaving. Leaving was the farthest thing from my mind. The places he touched smoldered and tingled, causing my heartbeat to become erratic. We both gazed at each other intently. "Don't deny it; I know you want me," he whispered, tantalizingly. "No, I don't," I lied, bitting my lip to keep from telling the truth. His eyes swirled with anger and flashed with hurt. He leaned in and placed his lips beside my ear. A shiver rippled through my body in response. "You're lying. Tell me," he demanded. I shook my head desperately and with that, he pressed his lips to mine hesitantly. He placed one hand on the nape of my neck and the other slid down the full length of my side. He gripped my hip and pushed us together even more, removing his lips from mine only to pepper kisses along my collarbones. I moaned and arched my back, making him grunt in return. I trailed my fingers up his chest and grabbed his face, mashing our lips together once again. "Be mine."
