“Repealed by the 21st,” I reminded him.

“Point.” He wasn’t softening an inch. “We could be here a while.”

“Too uncomfortable to move?” Curiosity slid through me.

“No, just—kind of obvious.”

“Does it embarrass you?” The longer we stood here, the less flushed I was, though lust still burned pretty hot. If he pushed or asked, I wasn’t entirely certain I would say no at this point.

He smirked. “No, I didn’t want it to embarrass you.”

Dipping my gaze to where he cupped my hand against him, I licked my lips and he groaned.

“Not helping, Frankie.”

“Sorry,” I whispered. I really wasn’t. This was kind of awesome. “This is all because of me?”

“Has been since I got here. Didn’t hurt that I’ve been half-hard thinking about you all day.” The admission dragged my gaze up. “Thinking about taking you out, making you smile, keeping you to myself. Then…those roses.”

At his scowl, I leaned in and gave his cock a squeeze as I kissed his jaw. He hissed out a breath. “You are making me smile.”

My stomach, behaving with all the class and restraint of a toddler, chose that moment to gurgle. I hadn’t eaten in hours, and I was starving. Archie groaned, then stole another kiss, this one short, hot and biting, when he drew on my bottom lip, scraping his teeth over it I shuddered.

“Your erection doesn’t bother me,” I whispered. “It makes me feel really hot…and I’m definitely wet, if that helps.”

Playing with fire should be my middle name.

At his look of pained disbelief, I shrugged. “Just wanted you to know we’re even.”

He glanced at our hands, then smirked. “Not quite.”

“I’d let you, but you can’t feel it through the dress…”

Rolling his head back, he let go of my hand and said, “Give me a taste and then we go?”

My heart stuttered. Seriously?

But the dare in those eyes was so hard to refuse. Withdrawing a step, I bent down to retrieve the lint roller and tape, then set them on the coffee table. His phone was also face down on the floor. Still holding his gaze, I turned to put one foot on the coffee table for balance and shifted my skirt. Easing my fingers under the seam of my panties, I ran two of them along my labia gathering the moisture and then pulled them out, glistening and shiny. When I offered my hand to Archie, he closed his lips over both of them, sucking my fingers into his mouth.

It sent a bolt of heat straight to my core, and I swayed. With a glide of his teeth against my skin he drew my fingers from his mouth but kept hold of my hand. “You taste amazing and that’s all for me?”

At the moment, I could honestly say yes, so I just nodded. I was wound tight and I could probably get myself off with a couple of finger strokes.

“Fuck,” Archie exhaled. “Let’s go, before I just say fuck it and order food in here while I figure out how to convince you to let me eat you out for the appetizer.”

The directness in his words lit another fuse in me. Playing with fire, one hundred percent. He grabbed his phone and tugged me toward the door. There was a huge umbrella parked in the corner. I paused to get my keys and my own phone.

There were a dozen messages from the guys on the screen.

Archie reached over and swiped the screen upward, then hit the do not disturb. Presumptuous, so I glanced at him with raised eyebrows.

“Tonight is you and me,” he reminded me. “They can wait.”

I considered it then darkened the screen and slid it into my purse. “You and me,” I promised. His smile sent another wash of warmth through me.

Thunder rumbled, a reminder of the storm. Outside, he got the umbrella opened and shielded us from the still sprinkling rain as I locked the door. Descending the steps, I half-thought Coop would pop up, but there was no sign of him as we reached Archie’s Ferrari. He opened the passenger door for me and waited until I was in and the door closed before he circled around.

Once he was in the driver’s seat, he got the engine started then glanced at me. “I was going to bring you flowers tonight,” he admitted. “But the rose thing has kind of robbed that of some impact, so I went with this.” He picked up a small wrapped package from the well and handed it to me.
