Monica had always projected a cold façade and quick temper;
and at first Patrick wasn’t sure he wanted to be involved with someone who had
as many issues as she apparently had.
Long before she had ever noticed him, he had observed all of her
routines. She’d shot down brothers at
school so quickly and icily they hadn’t even realized they’d been hit until she
was well on her way. Several months of
watching her in action around campus convinced him that she protected herself
by not letting other people get close to her personal life, by quickly discouraging
any man who thought of her as sensuous and intriguing, by being stubborn in a
way that was designed to drive away all intruders. He, however, knew how to charm himself back
into her good graces, how to sidestep her when she was pushing for a fight, how
to let her win when arguing over nothing important.
For Patrick, Monica held an energetic beauty that drew him
and held him captive. And she was gorgeous
in her determined spirit that matched the physical attractiveness of her dark
chocolate skin, exotic eyes, and athletic figure.
