Jolting upright from the nightmare, I glance around and realize I’m not there, I’m home. Safe. The images sit heavily in my mind, like a weight bearing down on me. I need to get out. To breathe. The air in my room is stifling.

I swing my legs over the bed and make my way in to the kitchen. The sun is coming up and I stifle a groan. I’m not ready for another day. I’d prefer to sleep in, but I know I’ll get no rest. “Good morning, sunshine!” Dakota’s sweet, melodic voice comes from my right as she enters the kitchen. I glance at her happy face and sigh.

“Babe, do you have to be so chirpy in the morning?” I grumble playfully, and she smiles at my grumpy pout shaking her head. I swear the girl has a neverending supply of energy. Rounding the island, she grabs two mugs and proceeds to make us two steaming mugs of coffee.

“Here, drink this and lighten up, you’re teaching me that damn pole today.” She winks lightheartedly, her big hazel eyes filled with mischief.

“What’s his name?” I quip, watching her cheeks pink and I realize there’s a guy involved. Whenever she has a little plan formulating in that intelligent brain of hers she gets this look and I know I’m going to be involved somehow.

“What makes you think it’s got anything to do with a guy?” She pops her hip, pinning me with a playful glare. Sipping my coffee, I savor the taste before answering her.

“Dakota, there’s something all sparkly in those caramel gems and I’m not stupid. What is his name?” Rolling her eyes, she let’s a giggle fall from her pouty lips.

“Well…” She drags the word out slowly and I know something’s about to shock me. “It’s just, you sort of know him.” She snickers before drinking her own milky coffee. Narrowing my eyes, I watch another deep crimson blush appear on her cheeks.

“Mmhmm, I knew it. And who is this man I sort of know?” I tip my head to the side in question.

“Axel,”—she sighs dramatically—“Sky, he’s a God. That body, that accent, those lips that I want on every inch of my skin, and a smirk that makes me want to drop my panties instantly. I’ve been crushing for a little while now and…well… I want to make a move, but I don’t want to go up to him, I want to play the naughty kitten. I’m going to drive him crazy because the way those blue orbs were piercing me from across the room last night, I know he wants to devour me.” Her lips purse playfully as she reminisces about the man who I consider a friend.

I can’t help laughing at the sweet, faraway look in her eyes. She’s smitten. “You just need to speak to him,” I respond nonchalantly. She snaps her gaze to mine and shakes her head. “Why not?”

“He’s someone who likes the chase, he’s said so himself, so I need you to teach me a routine that will make him lose it completely.
