A SEAL's Secret (21 page)
Authors: Tawny Weber
“So, Chris...”
Something in Bodie's tone made her body tense and her heart skip a beat. The espresso machine shut off abruptly, thrusting them into silence.
“Yes?” She picked up the cup and turned to find Zac, Luke and Gus still watching.
Argh!
“Since I'm back and free for a while...” He put both hands on the counter and leaned forward. His muscles bulged, his eyes held hers.
Chris swallowed.
Holyâ
“I'm thinkin' you and me have something pretty powerful between us.”
The counter?
She couldn't get the joke out. She was swimming in a sea of hormones and freaking out. In her hands, his espresso cup rattled against its saucer before she could make her hand relax.
“Huh.” That was the best she could do. This mental meltdown was not okayâthis was no longer who she was, and this was not where or how she wanted to be.
“So I was wonderingâ” he reached over and touched her cheek, making her skin tingle and causing her to nearly drop the cup “âif you wanted to have dinner sometime.”
