His wide eyes narrowed and he leaned over the bar. Inches separated their faces, and she stopped breathing. Her panties dampened immediately. He slowly lifted a hand and cupped her chin. Finally, he spoke. “Not surprised at all. Impressed is a better word. I’m pleased to know the woman I’ve been watching for the past hour who is capable of remembering ten things at once and running this place single-handedly is precisely who she appears to be.”
Devin blinked, unsure what to make of his little speech.
“Even if she is a bit bratty.” He lifted both brows and dipped his face closer before releasing her chin and sitting back.
Her jaw dropped, but speech failed her. Holy shit. The dampness in her panties was now more of a problem. Soaked was the better term. The possibility that he was a Dom shot way up. It had niggled in the back of her mind from the moment he first slid onto the stool, but hoping for more would have been futile.
Just because the man was overbearing and intense didn’t mean he was also a Dominant. His demeanor and attitude could have been caused by any number of factors.
But this… This last line of his tipped the scales in a new direction. “Did you just call me a brat?” she asked, though she’d heard him perfectly well.
He lifted those damn brows even higher. “Did you not just taunt me with the most exaggerated eye roll you could muster?”
Her cheeks heated. She had done that. Intentionally, though? And was she biting off more than she could chew?
She needed to tread carefully here. He would have her on her knees before the end of the evening, and that was impressive since few men were strong enough to dominate her the way she liked.
