Alexis Rivera straightened her knee-length pencil skirt and tugged at the edge, ensuring it still hugged her curves just right. She looked fantastic, if she did say so herself.

He stood near the window, a tumbler of whiskey clutched in his hand as he surveyed the city below. Their eyes caught, and Luciano broke into an appreciative smile, his eyes raking boldly over her form. Alexis felt the hairs on her arms rise, and her legs trembled.
