And suddenly I understand something that should probably concern me.
I like this.
Not just him.
The adrenaline. The chase. The moment when I couldn't see him but knew he was somewhere behind me. The certainty that he would catch me.
Hades breaks the kiss, his forehead resting against mine. “Tell me what you want.”
“You.”
His jaw flexes. “That's not specific enough.”
I laugh breathlessly. “Seriously?”
“Very.”
My cheeks heat. “Hades.”
“Tell me.”
I stare into those smoky gray eyes.
Then I tell him.
CHAPTER 32
Hades
“Remember the first book I recommended?” Presley stares up at me, hunger burning in her eyes.
She’s always been beautiful. But this... this is a whole other level.
“Of course.”
“When he chased her and caught her in the woods.”
I nod, my cock twitching inside my jeans.
“I want that... but I want you to figure out what I like.”
A slow smile crosses my face. “Challenge accepted.”
She gasps, from my smile or my words, I’m not sure.
All I know is that with all the shit I’ve done in my life, I don’t deserve this gorgeous woman standing in front of me with lips swollen from my kiss, breathing heavily as she waits to see what I’ll do.
But I’m damn well going to take everything she gives me.
Presley might not know it yet, but she's mine. Every version of me.
My lips meet hers, a barely there kiss that makes her gasp. The sound spurs me on, and I slip my tongue between her lips.
The sounds of the forest around us fade until I hear, smell, see, and taste nothing but her.
My naughty little bookworm.
My cock aches from being hard for so long. I swear, I’ve had blue balls for the last few days. But damned if I won’t make her every fantasy come true.
