We finished setting up the shop and cranked up thewith four of his buddies, all et a lot of those guys and gals Hunter Arht here in Savannah, and Fort Steas close by in Hinesville My client this uy, nineteen, and he and his buddies were all leaving for Parris Island--the marines’ boot ca-ti Just four years older than Seth While the others browsed the art books and chatted with Nyx, my client, whose name was Zac, shyly walked up to me Tall, a little lanky, but lean, with a pair of clear blue eyes, he flashed a hesitant s at my arms
"That is some wicked cool artwork," he said "Can I see the rest of it?"
I lifted one brow and smiled "You’re not as shy as you look"
Zac’s face immediately turned as red as a ripe tomato "Oh--no disrespect, ma’am I’d heard about it and honestly, I just wanted to--"
I laughed and shook et all flustered I get that same question asked nearly every tirinned "Swiet too excited Got it?"
Zac laughed "Yes, ma’am" His buddies were instantly at his side Nyx stood behind the her hips in a little Nyx dance to the led my brows, and in one easy, practiced move I lifted my Inksomnia shirt over my head and turned around Everybody alanted to check out ons, and I adreen, with random ruby scales and lined in ebony, the art started at ons on my arms started at my biceps and wound down toaround ers
"Whoa," Zac said with appreciation in his voice "That is sick How long did it take?"
"Did it hurt?" one of his buddies asked
"Who did it?" another inquired
"That," Zac said, turning even redder, "is freaking hot"
I smiled and shook my head at the questions I’d answered hundreds of tiuy, standing at Inkso in, and I froze I felt ainst my ribs No h we’d stood there for an hour Although he wore a pair of dark shades, I felt as though he could see clear through me I couldn’t take one Yeah, that fast I thought to hurry over to the , or even better, the door, and look for him, see which direction he went But I didn’t I have no idea why Soht where I was
Hastily, I pulled ed "Eh, hurt a little, but not too bad It took six sittings, at probably four hours each" I grinned "And the artist is standing behind you"
They all turned and stared appreciatively at Nyx, who gave a blasé wave "It was nothin’"
