He exhaled sharply. “I need some rest time.”
She looked up at him and pouted. “You look ready to go to me.” Despite having just had a monster orgasm he was still semi-hard.
He gently brushed her hair off her face. “We better get you cleaned up before that freezes.”
She nipped at his fingers and laughed.
Neil slipped back into his pants and zipped up. “I’ll be right back.”
The moment Neil stepped out of the fridge, reality set in. What the fuck was she doing? She was half naked with ejaculate all over her breasts in the fridge of her latest project. What if Evan found her in here? What if one of the workers found her in here? What if her father found out?
She had to pull it together. And quickly.
Neil returned and wiped her breasts with a wet towel, the heat from the water a welcome sensation. For as demanding as he was, this side of him, this tenderness, was unexpected. He wiped her clean and then dried her off with a towel. He reached for the her T-shirt and bra hanging on the shelving unit. She barely remembered removing it, let alone it being suspended in mid-air behind her.
When she was clothed, he drew her in closer and kissed the top of her head.
“Thank you.”
“My pleasure.” She sighed. “But do you think we can get out of here. I’m freezing.”
“Of course.” He picked up her hard hat and plunked it down on her head, then opened the fridge door. He took a peek outside to make sure the coast was clear before they stepped out. Even with the air conditioner going, the kitchen was considerably warmer than the walk-in.
She moved away but his hand remained clasped with hers, preventing her from leaving.
“What are you doing tonight?”
His question surprised her. They had agreed to sex, not spending time together. Although she wasn’t going to complain.
Sex with Neil had been as exciting as the racing scene.
“Are you trying to be proactive? Anticipate needing a quickie later on?” She smirked.
“Actually, I thought maybe we could…”
She held her breath, afraid that the words he was going to say wouldn’t match the words she hoped he’d say. He sighed and kicked at the floor. “The truth is, I don’t do well when I’m alone. My brain doesn’t settle and I end up doing stupid things.”
She exhaled slowly. So he’d rather spend time with her than be alone. She wasn’t sure if it was a compliment but she’d take it. It was better than him racing. It was better than adding another person’s life on her conscience.
Plus she couldn’t deny the fringe benefits of keeping Neil’s body preoccupied.
“Actually, I have a standing date on Wednesday nights.”
He frowned. “Date?”
“Not a date exactly, just a thing I do a few times a week.” She didn’t have much spare time and preferred to ease her work stress in the boxing ring. It had certainly been her saving grace many times. Maybe it could be the perfect alternative for Neil as well. He needed physical exertion in order to keep his brain settled. They could both benefit from some time in the ring. “You could come with me.”
His eyebrow lifted in curiosity. “And what exactly would we be doing?”
“What if I wanted it to be a surprise?”
“Uh…”
“You don’t like not being in control, do you?”
“I hate it.” She could almost hear the unspoken duh. “It’s what my brothers love most about me.” He smiled. She got the hint of sarcasm in his voice.
“Well how about you try, just once, and let me be in control?”
