The lady had come in making everything smell pink like flowers. Gyms were supposed to smell like sweat and hard labor. He’d seen girls like that before. They came in dressed in designer workout clothes and were all gung-ho the first day, maybe even the first week. But then they disappeared.\u003cbr\u003eHe’d seen her come in, using the mirrors so that he wouldn’t have to turn around. She was curvy. Her stretchy sweat pants pulled across her more-than ample-bottom and he noted the way her rear-end moved when she walked. When she bent to stretch Christopher had stopped peeking, her butt was pointed right at the reflection in the mirror that he was using to see her. Her shirt had slipped up some and her pants had slipped down a bit and he could see cute pink panties and a bit of her crack.\u003cbr\u003eHe suppressed a growl. Why was this lady wearing pink and smelling pink invading his space?! And why was she in here so early? Well he had no plans of changing his workout time, so she could just change hers if she didn’t like him here.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e~Praise for Beast!~\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBEAST is one beast of a story!\u003cbr\u003e-Violette Dubrinsky, author ‘Taken By Moonlight’\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis novel was beyond exceptional.
