THE WEDDING BOUQUET tumbled through the air.
The breath caught in Sofia Mooreâs throat as she watched the flowers sail end over end. They were headed her way. She raised her hands high in the air. With a firm grasp on the bouquet, she smiled triumphantly, thankful her friend had chosen flowers that didnât bother her allergies. Sofia lowered her arms, taking a moment to admire the beautiful white lilies and the delicate blue orchids.
As a round of applause went up, she lifted her head. Her gaze immediately met a set of piercing blue-gray eyes. Only one person had such mesmerizing eyes. Niko Stravos.
Her heart pounded in her chest. He quickly averted his gaze, but the connection had been long enough for her stomach to quiver with excitement. He liked her. Of that she was certain.
In turn, she was drawn to him like a honeybee to a sun-warmed daisy. How could she not be? He was drop-dead gorgeous in the tall, dark and dreamy sort of way. But there was something moreâsomething she couldnât quite put her finger on.
She moved to where he was standing. His stance was a bit stiff, and a frown marred his handsome face. What had caused him to look so uncomfortable? Just moments ago, theyâd been enjoying their time together. Their conversation had been light and entertaining. She wasnât ready for it to end.
âCare to dance again?â She hoped to cajole him back into a good mood.
Nikoâs hesitant gaze zeroed in on the bouquet before returning to her face. âPerhaps we should rest. Arenât you tired?â
âTired? Not a chance. I love weddings.â This was the first time since sheâd called off her engagement that sheâd truly enjoyed herself. She didnât want this magical evening to end. âDonât you?â
âWhat?â Lines creased between his dark brows.
âDonât you enjoy weddings?â
His gaze moved to the colorful lilies again. âNot so much. Iâm usually too busy at the office to attend them.â
âIn that case, you should make the most of the occasion. Iâm sure Kyraâs glad you made an exception today.â She noticed how his attention kept straying back to the flowers. She turned and placed the arrangement on the bridal table. But still the pensive look on his face remained. âI love this song. Letâs go dance.â
He shook his head. âI donât think so.â
âBut why?â
He glanced around as though trying to avoid her pointed stare. âYou should dance with someone else. I...I donât want to take up your entire evening. I should go.â
âBut we were having fun. Donât say goodbye. Not yet.â She needed thisâshe needed to feel alive again after beating herself up for letting herself stay in a dead-end relationship for too long. âPlease.â
Niko hesitated. Then he held out his arm to her. âShall we?â
A smile pulled at her lips. âI thought youâd never ask.â
He escorted her onto the crowded dance floor that had been erected on the beach of the Blue Tide Resort beneath a giant tent supported by white columns. Everyone around them was smiling and laughing. The tables were adorned with white linens, floral centerpieces and votive candles. It was so easy to get swept up in the joyful celebration of her best friendâs wedding.
A smile lifted the corners of his mouth. âYou are unlike anyone Iâve ever known. I never know what to expect from you.â
âI like to keep you guessing.â She stepped into his very capable arms.
