The show was amazing. The lights were fabulous, and she even saw some of them form. There was a soft glow from a woman across the way. She recognized the beautiful face of the owner. Oriena was scary. And hot.
And Danika stood so she did too and applauded with the rest of them. She stared as the man from the stage walked towards them. His hair on fire with blue flames yet he wasn't in any pain. She couldn't take her eyes off him. His skin glistened under the lights and he was nearly naked. Ilesha dropped her eyes when he wrapped his arm around Danika and draped an arm around her.
Drinks arrived and Ilesha's gaze was drawn to his navel and she realized where she was looking and her eyes popped straight up the big brown eyes lined with guy liner. God he was hot.
He took her hand, he hadn't offered his but he took hers and pressed it to his lips. "Nox. And you are?"
"Ilesha."
"Claire's friend. I've heard about you. Juls suggests you come by. Maybe you can teach Sterling that her education is just as important as learning how to use her gift." He waved his hand and a blue flame leaped into his hand and then disappeared just as quickly.
"You know who I am?"
He smiled, it was enchanting. "Of you. The girls like to talk. How do you two know each other?"
"We work together."
