Page 61 of Twice as Tempting

Damian laughed again. “I’ll take that under advisement.”

The carhop roller-skated over to deliver their order, which put a temporary halt to their conversation. As they tucked into their food, Damian kept shooting her glances until she finally said, “What?”

“I never figured you for the jealous type. I’m learning new things about you every day.”

Kelly wiped a glob of mustard from the corner of her mouth and replied, “Well, ordinarily I’m not. However, I could tell by the way that girl looked at you that she’d like to rev your engine.”

“That’s too bad, because there’s only one woman who does that for me.”

They faced each other again, and Kelly melted under his gaze. “Me?” she asked hopefully but with a fair amount of confidence.

“You,” he confirmed.

It was difficult to finish eating after that because Kelly had a large lump in her throat. Her man of few words always managed to captivate her with just one. When they pulled up in front of the auto shop a short time later, Lexie’s face was there through the window, as if she had been anxiously awaiting Damian’s return.

“Instead of me telling Lexie that you’re my girlfriend, why don’t we just show her?” Damian said with a sparkle in his eyes.

“Great idea,” Kelly said.

He leaned across the console and pressed his lips to hers. At first, Kelly thought they would exchange a few chaste kisses, but when he pried her mouth open with his tongue, she suddenly forgot all about their performance. She moaned against his lips and flung her arms around his neck to pull him closer. The kiss only lasted for a minute or so, but when they pulled apart, they were both panting. When Kelly finally remembered their audience, she glanced over at the window. Lexie glared at her for a second and then turned on her heel and disappeared behind the counter.

Damian kissed her again, a quick peck this time, and said, “See you tonight?”

She nodded and watched him walk away, admiring his broad shoulders, narrow waist, and fine backside. Oh no, she wasn’t going to let Lexie or any other woman get their hands on him. She was going to be the only one to rev his engine, and she smiled as she drove away, because, according to him, she was!
