“What? Why?” she asked, yet did as I requested, tightening her hold around my neck.

“Because of this.” I slid my hands from her hips and grabbed her ass. In one swift move, I hoisted her up, forcing her legs around my waist.

With her body supported by the wall behind her and me in front of her, I kissed her again, another searing kiss that made me want more. Made me want to lose myself in her and never come up for air.

When she moaned into my mouth, I had to stop myself from throwing her over my shoulder and hauling her to the bedroom. But she deserved better than a quick fuck in the middle of the day. At least for our first time. I wanted to worship her, to erase any doubts she had about this arrangement.

To make her feel beautiful.

I couldn’t do that right now. Not when I hadn’t slept much the past two days.

Reluctantly, I slowed my motions, our kiss turning from a desperate, wanton exchange to one of wonder and veneration. It was still filled with passion, still made me wild with need. But it was more tempered, more subdued, until I brought the kiss to an end and rested my forehead against hers.

I closed my eyes and carefully helped her lower her feet to the ground. Once I was certain she had her footing, I released a tiny puff of air. She did the same, both of us breathing in one another for several long moments.

“Are you free tonight?”

“Tonight?” She blinked. “I thought we’d get this over with now. Rip off the bandage, so to speak.” She smiled anxiously, averting her gaze. “Before I talk myself out of it.”

“Trust me, beautiful…” I tipped her chin back, forcing her eyes to mine. When I ran my thumb along her bottom lip, she shivered, a visceral reaction. “I won’t let you talk yourself out of this. After getting a taste of this amazing mouth, you can be damn sure I want more.” I touched my lips to hers. “So much more.”

“No one’s ever talked to me like this before.”

“That’s a mistake. One I plan on correcting.” I feathered light kisses along her neck, her skin supple and inviting. “In my opinion, sex isn’t just the physical act. It’s merely the culmination. The finish line, so to speak.” I tugged on her earlobe with my teeth, eliciting a moan. Then I met her gaze. “I like the buildup. I want to see you shiver in anticipation when I place a kiss on your neck. Want to watch your face flush when I tell you, in precise detail, everything I plan to do to you once we’re alone. Then I want to watch you squirm across the table from me when I slide my hand under your skirt and come so close to touching you but don’t, to the point you’ll beg me to bring you back here and fuck you.”

I slammed my mouth against hers, urging her lips to part and stealing one last, desperate kiss before retreating. “Eight o’clock tonight.” It was a mixture between a question and order.

Swallowing hard, she nodded quickly. “Eight o’clock tonight.”

“No backing out.”

“No backing out.”
