I scoffed. “Fuck that. You’re a grown woman. You can decide what you eat or don’t eat. Does your doctor have concerns?”
“No. Not at all. She monitors me very closely since eating disorders are incredibly common in the company.” She looked down and touched her hip bone. “I’m skinny.”
“Yep,” I agreed, waiting for her to continue.
“There’s a fine line between good skinny and bad skinny.”
“Okay.” Where was she going with this?
“I’ve been told by more than one guy I’m not the good kind.”
“What the hell?”
She rolled her eyes. “Apparently I’m too bony and my hipbones hurt.”
I snorted. “So go on top.”
She scrunched her nose at me. “Not every guy likes that.”
I raised my brow. “Uh, yeah, they do.”
Natalie laughed. “Trust me, they don’t.”
“Real men aren’t turned off by a confident woman.” I leaned forward and pinned her with a stare. “Trust me, the idea of you riding me is hot as fuck.”
“I didn’t realize we were talking about you,” she teased flirtatiously.
“Didn’t you?”
She licked her lips. “Okay, maybe I did.”
“Mmm hmm.” I smirked.
She shifted in her chair and glanced up at me from beneath her lashes. “Is that really how you see me?”
“Is what really how I see you? Strong. Determined. Hardworking. Confident.” I looked at her and held her stare, allowing her to see the truth in what I was saying. I didn’t know what kind of men she normally encountered, but they sure as hell weren’t worthy of her. “Sexy.”
She swallowed visibly. “Wow,” she whispered.
“I think the men you’ve dated are idiots. I don’t care if you look like you do now or were fifty pounds heavier, you would still be the sexiest woman I have ever seen.”
“Fifty pounds heavier, huh?” she teased.
Shit, was that too low? “I have no idea what you weigh, so, um…”
“Fifty is good.” Amusement crinkled the corners of her eyes.
Thank God, I thought I’d blown it there. “Any guy would be lucky to have you, Nat.”
“You didn’t use to think so,” she teased.
I gave a little laugh. If she only knew. “No, it’s always been true. But we were kids, and you were off limits.”
She pushed her chair back. “But I’m not off limits now?”
I leaned back in my seat and held her gaze. “Now we’re both adults, and I don’t give a shit.”
“Good answer.” She stood, and with the confidence of a woman who knows exactly how sexy she is, she straddled my lap.My hands immediately went to her hips as my fingers dug into her muscular ass.
