My heart skipped a beat when I turned around to see a handsome stranger standing across the busy room. Tall and confident, he oozed a mysterious aura that drew my attention right away. I felt a bolt of electricity run through my veins as our eyes briefly connected. It seemed as if an unseen link connected us, drawing me towards him in an unexplainable way. My heart was pounding, and a warm flush spread across my cheeks. This mystery guy affected me. "Hi," I said flirtatiously, scolding myself inwardly for what had gotten into me. I believe it was the alcohol. I shrugged it off, my gaze fixed on the stunning man in front of me. I noticed he was staring at me lustfully. Then our eyes locked, and a bond was formed between us. With a knowing glance and a whispered consent, I melted away in his arms. I was immersed in the moment until I sensed he kicked open a door. I discovered a freedom in his arms that I had never known before. As the night took shape, the world outside faded away as I fell into the enticing spell of the stranger.
