Altogether irritated and not at all good at handling it, I glanced back at the thong and bit my lip. Perhaps my reaction had something to do with how dismissive he was. From there I received a polite nod that made me bristle. I found myself released from his gaze as he dragged it down my body and back up again. Beautiful, unusual violet eyes rimmed with black lashes. He had the most extraordinary eyes I’d ever seen. I froze, flustered by the heat that suffused my cheeks under his perusal. Suddenly I found myself trapped in his gaze as he looked up and spotted me. I preferred my men leaner, clean-cut, and far less intimidating. His large build and the scruff were too much in my opinion. “Whatever you decide, I’m on board.” His dark hair was close-shaven, and he was sporting heavy scruff that only made his rugged features that much more so. “Talk to Dad,” the man murmured, drawing my gaze from his tattoo to his face. It looked Celtic in design and appeared to be a sword with a semicircle arching over it and connecting on either side of the hilt. My eyes roamed over the broad shoulders and muscular biceps and stopped on the black tattoo that took up a good part of his right forearm. Stepping out of the doorway, phone to his ear, was an exceptionally tall man. The sound of my neighbor ’s door opening jerked my attention from the thong to his door. Aghast at the thought of my clean and well-maintained stairwell suddenly turning into the set for Shameless, I could do nothing but stare at the offending item in horror. Now the squealer ’s thong was drip-drying on my handrail. It took so long (I had to give them points for stamina), it was time for me to go to sleep and I’d gotten hardly any editing done. Although frustrating, there was nothing I could do but wait for it to end. My neighbor ’s girlfriend was loud during sex. My first semi-introduction to him was last night when my work was ground to a halt by the high-pitched squealing coming from next door. Stared at the bright pink thong draped across the hand railing on the landing I shared with the Inew neighbor I had yet to meet.
