Oh wow, Lex," one exclaimed in disbelief. "You weren't kidding about the girl. She's gorgeous!"
The three other men exchanged knowing smirks.
Lex winked playfully at Jeannette, then ushered her further into the room. "Guys, I'd like you to meet Jeannette."
The first man stepped towards her, revealing his towering height. "Hi! I'm Darren," he greeted her warmly, extending both hands. Jeannette hesitated only briefly before accepting a his hug. His powerful grip made her knees weak, and she couldn't resist giving him a quick kiss on his cheek.
"Nice to meet you, Darren."
Darren let go of her and stepped back to make space for the second man to greet her. "Hey, babe, how's it going? I'm Jason." He stepped up to her and also opened his arms for a hug.
Jeannette willingly obliged, embracing Jason tightly. His scent enveloped her, a mixture of musk and cologne that was strangely appealing. Their bodies pressed close, and she could feel his warmth seeping into her bones.
She reluctantly broke away from Jason, turning to face the remaining two men.
"Hey baby, I'm Justin. Nice to see you." said one of them, offering her a hug, as well.
"Nice to meet you, Justin." Jeannette returned the gesture, wrapping her arms around him. Justin smelled fresh and clean, with just a hint of spice. His muscles rippled under her touch, sending delicious shivers down her spine.
The last of the group stepped up, offering her a friendly smile. "Hey, babe. I'm Ray," he introduced himself simply. There was something oddly calming about his presence. "It's nice to meet you too, Ray." Jeannette replied, leaning in for yet another hug.
Ray seemed different, quieter perhaps than the others. Jeannette found herself smiling back at him, a genuine warmth spreading across her chest.
