I checked myself over in the mirror one last time, trying to settle the butterflies in my belly. Iâd never been so excited for a date before. Maybe it was because I knew I was guaranteed a good time, and I didnât just mean in bed later. I already knew we got along, so although this was kind of a first date, it really wasnât.
Shane had sent me a message earlier, saying heâd made reservations at a restaurant, and promised to cook for me next time.
I tried on several outfits before deciding on a simple fitted black dress under a dark red cardigan in case it got cooler tonight. I finished with a favorite pair of sheer stockings with a seam down the back that showed off my legs.
Dressing demurely but still sexily was an art form, one I think Iâd perfected. I caught him staring at my ass today in my pencil skirt. I loved that skirt. It was long enough to wear to work, and the style was simple and unassuming, but the fit was dynamite. It made me feel like a sexy siren.
I still couldnât believe weâd hidden behind that shelf feeding each other forbidden cupcakes today. Iâd felt like a teenager trying not to get caught making out. At least I knew now that the attraction Iâd felt was real. It hadnât been because of the love spell. And it was definitely just as strong now as it had been at the gala. Our chemistry was off the charts. The undying love he claimed he felt might not be real, but the lust sure was.
The secret to making a simple dress and cardigan look sexy, aside from the seamed stockings, was dark red lips and winged liner. Red lips always took things to fuck-me territory.
I was ready as Iâd ever be, though a part of me still wondered if this was a horrible idea. Like, what if the spell had faded and he realized he actually wanted a social butterfly like Iris, not a boring librarian like me?
Donât get me wrong, I loved the way I was and never planned to change, especially not for a man. But if Shane was supposed to be the perfect match for Iris, then surely, he couldnât be perfect for me. I resolved not to think about it too much and just enjoy my night.
He arrived at my building driving his understated dark green Mercedes S class sedan. Classy without the flash. Nice.
Shane looked good. Same as at the gala and earlier today, heâd chosen to forgo any glamour spell and appear in his natural form.
âYou look stunning,â he said as he opened the door for me and helped me into the car. âYou can pull off bright pink, but thisâ¦â He swallowed, and from the look in his eyes, Iâll bet he was imagining peeling my dress off me.
âThank you.â The goal of todayâs date was to get to know him more outside of the bedroom, but I
