There was music playing in the distance in his house.
And his tongue slipped inside my mouth, and I groaned.
The way I needed this man wasn’t natural.
Not to me, at least.
I’d never needed anyone aside from my father, and even then, I stopped needing him at a very young age.
Depending on people had not been a good plan for me.
Depending on people had always been painful.
A reminder that the only person I could truly count on was myself.
But I was lost in a River Pierce haze. A mix of passion and desire and want.
He carried me through the house and set me down, unlocking his lips with mine.
I missed him the minute he pulled away.
I knew I was playing with fire, but I stayed right there.
In the middle of the flames. So willing to get burned.
He smiled, his large hands on each side of my face. “Did you eat?”
“Did I eat?” I asked, stunned by the question.
“Did I stutter? I asked if you ate.”
“No. But I’m not hungry.” I leaned forward and nipped at his bottom lip. “At least not for food.”
He growled. “You sure? I don’t want you hungry when I’m having my way with you.”
“Do you feed all the women you bring home, Wild River?” I teased, but his gaze hardened.
“No. But I think we both know that you’re different.”
I shook my head. I didn’t want this to go deep. Why did it feel like this man could read every thought in my head? Like he could see into my soul.
Like if I let myself go, he would catch me.
“I’m not hungry right now.”
“Fine. I’ll feed you after. But I plan to eat very well right now,” he said, his hand moving between my legs and beneath my skirt. He slid my panties to the side, and my head fell back.
“Shit,” I hissed as his finger dipped inside me.
And then he pulled it back and raised his finger to his mouth, his eyes darker than I’d ever seen them. He sucked his finger between his lips, moaning as he did it.
This man was so sexy it should be illegal.
I knew in this moment that I’d never be the same after one night with River.
But when he lifted me off the counter, my legs came around his waist, and my hands moved around his neck.
And I couldn’t wait to see where he was taking me.
