On Teaser Thursday, I'm sharing a teaser from my Sweet & Sexy Romance titled: Naked Attraction.
Please enjoy.
Only three weeks ago, Mofe had been rocking the fast tempo
beats in a chic beach club in Zakynthos, a Greek Island in the Ionian Sea. A
holiday he had planned for two years, now cut short by his brother’s trial. The
wild partying in Greece was not the issue that stuck in his mind. It was a
certain woman’s behaviour.
Dancing in a pencil thin pair of red high heels on the bar
table on the first night was a woman with golden skin colour and long black
hair with golden streaks. Dressed in a tiny red lacy bra and thong, the woman
had every man gasping with her hip-wriggling and body-twisting dance steps.
Unable to stop himself at the time, Mofe had taken pictures
of the woman. Throughout her sultry dance routine, he had tried to make eye
contact with her across the packed room, but it had been impossible with the
multi-coloured blinking lights.
Something in the woman’s eyes had reached out
to him. Not that he was sure of what it was specifically. Although the woman
had danced with passion and confidence, she seemed a little lost, to him. Lost,
in a sense he could not explain. But he understood it.
With his heart pounding in his chest wall, Mofe raced across
the hall and called out. “Hello District Judge, please give me a minute of your
time.”
The security man stepped forward, blocking Mofe’s approach
and put out both hands. “You have to book an appointment, sir. I told you
earlier.”
“We met in Greece, your honour,” Mofe said when the judge
ignored his comment and turned her back on him.
He did not see her face, but
her footsteps in medium black heels slowed before she hurried away. And Mofe
was convinced he had found the dancing woman from the club in Zakynthos.
“I already told you, Mr. Awani, you can’t see the judge
without an appointment. We have to follow protocol here.”
Moments later, the desk phone by the security man shrilled.
With a warning look at Mofe, the security man picked up the receiver.
“Yes, Ma’am,” the man nodded and gave Mofe a glance over.
“Okay, Ma’am. Right away, I will.”
And when he dropped the receiver, the
security man grinned. “It seems it is your lucky day. You have been granted
access to the judge’s chamber.”
The sickening feeling from earlier turned into something more
intense. “Where can I find the honourable judge?” Mofe asked in his most
contrite voice, although inwardly, he laughed at the image of a barely dressed
judge wriggling her waist to the loud music on a bar table.
“Walk straight down the hall, turn right, keep walking to
room eight one five.”
“Thank you,” said Mofe with a quick nod.
With each step, Mofe’s heart beat a little faster reminding
him of when he had been summoned to the head teacher’s office in primary
school. Only this time, he was about to face the woman he had been searching
for and he had no idea how she would respond.
When he stopped in front of the room labelled eight one five,
Mofe twisted the knob and pushed without knocking. He did it on a hunch. It was
not a habit for him not to knock before entering an office. But in this
situation, he felt inclined to break every rule.
“Who are you?” asked the woman seated in a black, leather
high-back chair with her back to the door. It was the same authoritative voice
she put up in the courtroom.
Good. She did not ask why he did not knock. It seemed they
had low expectations of each other. With her exotic looks and skin colour, she
appeared of mixed heritage. But from her British accent, he could not determine
her race.
“The question is why would a magistrate judge be spotted
dancing on a bar table in nothing but a bra and thong in one of Europe’s beach
clubs? And then appear serious on Monday morning in a London courtroom wearing
a wig and black gown?” While he waited for her answer, he took a passing look
around her chambers.
The gold and black name
plaque on the desk indicated her name was District
Judge Ronke Oni.
