Fighting Back by Leezy Mike (top ten ebook reader .txt) 📕

tell me about it, then don't. Don't force yourself, Lis. You can tell me all about it when you're ready," I said and smiled. She returned my smile reluctantly. "Thank you," she murmured and left.

I watch her walking back toward the diner. Okay, scratch that. The truth was...well...I was actually paying attention to her hips. I'm not proud of where my mind wandered at the moment but I'm just a man. I'm no saint and definitely not perfect. I sighed as I adjusted my suddenly tight pants. I cursed under my breath and kicked myself mentally. I'm not some horny tenager that couldn't control his underage lust. I got to stop thinking about Annalisa or I might end up taking a cold shower tonight. I shook my head and grimaced. My new life here would be a pure hell if I couldn't rein in my desire that threatened to go out of control every time I set my eyes on Annalisa.

 

 

Chapter Three: Annalisa

As I walked back toward the diner, I took the opportunity to turn around just in time to see Derek walked back inside the station. I rested my eyes on his short dark hair, wide shoulders, narrow waist and lean hips. My mouth went dry and I cursed myself. I groaned, suddenly feeling disgusted with myself and where my mind wandered since this morning. When I stared at his face just this morning, my heart went crazy. I didn't know what came over me. He ought to be fined for being too God damned good looking. Didn't he know heads turned when he walked into the diner? Even Tracie, the petite brunette who's working for Aunt Helen gaped.

Derek was born into this world with a purpose; making women crazy at the sight of him. Everything about him was sexy; from his piercing brown eyes to his whole body. Even the sexy lopsided grin could make any woman fall flat on her face. If he wasn't a police officer, I would have fall flat on my face too. Damned that man for being too handsome!

"Hey, why the long face?" Tracie asked and rested her hips against one of the tables as I walked in. "You should smile widely after meeting the most good looking bachelor in Wild Rivers!" I stared at her but said nothing. After all, she ogled my best friend just this morning. "I've been wondering..." she went on saying. "Are you a lesbian?" I felt heat crept up my neck and cheeks. During these past thirteen years, nobody had ever said things like that to me before. "Tracie! Don't you have anything else better to do than prying into other people's lives?" Aunt Helen asked sternly. Tracie said nothing then stepped away from me. "I swear to God I'll fire that girl one day," my aunt muttered. "She shouldn't have said things like that."

I sat on one of the stools. Aunt Helen leaned forward. "So...what were you two talked about?" she asked. I stared at her in confusion.
