a little.
We decide that he and Luke can move it tomorrow.
    “Do you know what’s in it?” He asks me then
seeing my face realizes what a stupid question it was and
chuckles.
    “What are you going to do tonight?” I ask him
as he is studying the cabinet to see how they are going to move
it.
    “I’m going to go out to a club,” he says
leaning up against the wood with one hand and waiting for my
response.
    “Finally, who are you going with?” I’m so
excited he’s going to get out and have some fun.
    “Just some guys from the firm, it should be
lots of fun,” he smiles at me. “Maybe I’ll get lucky,” he says
furrowing his eyebrows.
    “Maybe!” I chime walking over to him and
giving him a quick kiss on the cheek before I leave the room.
“Don’t break any hearts tonight handsome.”
    “I’ll try my hardest,” I hear Jacob chuckle
as I walk down the hall.
    I wait for Luke in the kitchen and notice he
finished the light. Leaning my elbows on the counter of the island,
I flip through a fashion magazine that is lying there. Not being
able to concentrate on anything, I only glance through the
magazine. I flip through the pages again when I reach the end, just
going through the motions.
    After about fifteen minutes, Luke walks
through the French doors. I can tell he showered again. His hair is
still a little damp and his little curls arranged in an organized
mess. He’s wearing khaki cargo shorts and a tighter light blue
button up cotton shirt that is tucked into his shorts. The shirt is
tight against his muscular chest and abs. My mouth goes dry when I
take in the sight of him. He looks so amazing that I want to run
and jump in his arms.
    “Wow!” He says intensely as his eyes travel
from the top of my head all the way to my feet. “You look fucking
amazing. I think I could rip those clothes right off of you,” he
growls. His tone makes my insides warm and I feel my face flush. He
walks to me, leans down and takes my lips with his giving me a warm
and loving kiss. “Sorry a little forward,” he apologizes. “But damn
girl, you take my breath away,” he says giving me that wicked
grin.
    I smile back at him wanting to tell him
please rip my clothes off, but instead say, “Where are you taking
me?” My voice is shaky with the excitement building inside me.
    “I’m taking you to my favorite seafood
restaurant. They have the best crab boil in Louisiana,” he answers
me then steps back a little to look me up and down again. His eyes
are dark with lust. This makes my stomach tighten and I feel a tug
down deep that makes my knees feel weak.
    “I’ve never been to a crab boil,” I admit, my
legs feeling a little unsteady under me.
    “You’re going to love it.”
    “OK,” I say mesmerized by his warm eyes.
    “Now let’s go. Can I drive your car?” He
asks, voice filled with excitement to drive the $200,000 Aston
Martin in the garage.
    I smile and nod. He grabs my hand as we head
for the garage. Once we are on the road, he tells me the restaurant
is about an hour away and it is right on the gulf coast. He looks
gorgeous behind the wheel of my car, as if it was made for him.
Putting his shades on, he shifts gears and picks up speed. He is
definitely in his element. “This car is amazing. A little different
than my old beat up truck,” he smiles at me. He leans over, grabs
my hand, and runs his thumb along my knuckles as he drives.
    “So you’re dad told me your sister is getting
married. Are you excited about that?” I ask Luke about Sarah. I
know he is really close with his sister. Jeffrey told me she put
herself through medical school and is now doing well as a
pediatrician.
    “Yeah next summer,” he says, but doesn’t
elaborate.
    “Do you not like her fiancé?”
    “I just think she can do better,” he shrugs
at my question looking over at me. “I mean, he’s nice and all, but
he can’t seem to hang on to a job,” he says turning his eyes back
to the road and I feel him squeeze
