Nathan pulled Lisa closer and kissed her. She tried to protest, but her body started to respond, goosebumps pricked at her skin while heat spread inside. She forced herself to stay focused.
‘Can you at least tell me it’s nothing that will hurt her?’
Nathanlooked into her eyes. The longing she saw in his gaze was distracting.
‘Lisa, I gave my word.’
‘So is it? Is it something that will hurt her?’
Nathan sighed. ‘Look, I’m not supposed to say anything, but if I tell you Pete wants Flick to be happy, can we leave it? You know she’s going to call you later and then you’ll know everything. OK.’
‘Wait, was that “and thenI’ll know everything’s OK”, or “and then I’ll know everything. OK”?’
Nathan sat up. He pressed a kiss to Lisa’s mouth before lifting her T-shirt off over her head. She attempted to focus on continuing her line of questioning, but with the feel of Nathan’s mouth on her body the words escaped her.
