“I wanted to talk but now…” I stared up at him as he neared. “I’m not so sure what I’m doing.”

“Are you sure you didn’t come here to try and finish what we started a couple days ago?”

“I have no idea what you’re talking about,” I said, staring up at him as he closed the distance between us.

“No?” Zach stopped in front of me, placing his hands on the arms of the chair and leaning down toward me. “I think you do. So, tell me, Luna. What is it that you want exactly?”

“To talk,” I repeated, unsure as to why I couldn’t just tell him that I wanted to finish what we started. But a part of me wanted to see how this would play out. Call me a masochist but I rather enjoyed driving Zach crazy.

“Luna,” he growled, inching closer.

“What?” I reached out to touch him. My fingers grazed along his jawline, down his thick neck and to his shoulder. “Can’t we just talk? We are friends and all, Zachary,” I purred, knowing he liked it when I used his full name.

His nostrils flared. “What do you want to talk about?” he bit out through clenched teeth.

“Hmm…” Getting a moment of bravery, I brushed my fingers down his chest to his waist. “Tell me why you haven’t had sex in over a year.”

“Luna.”

“Tell me. Were you waiting?” I needed to know. I wasn’t sure why. But I needed to know that therewassomething between us.

“Yes.” He grabbed my hand, giving my palm a gentle bite. “I was waiting for that special woman.”

“Really?” My heart skipped a beat. “Have you found her yet?”

“I have.” He kissed my fingertips.

“Is she pretty?” I breathed.

“She’s beautiful.” His dark eyes became even blacker. “She has dark hair, curves that could make a grown man weep. Freckles. She’s perfect.”

My heart started racing. “You think I’m beautiful?”

He smirked. “Who says I was talking about you?”

A laugh escaped me. “Well, I know this guy.”

“You know lots of guys,” Zach said, which came out more as a growl.

“Jealous, baby?” I asked, kissing his chin.

“Nah.” He fisted my hair, tugging my head back.

I gasped.

“You see.” He leaned forward, licking up the length of my throat. “I know you don’t want anyone else but me andIdon’t want anyone else but you.”

“Prove it,” I demanded, pulling his shirt from the waist of his black pants. “Prove to me that you want me.” I reached my hands beneath his shirt. His abs jumped when I came into contact with his hot skin.

Zach’s body shook like he was trying to rein in on that control he craved. His mouth brushed along the line of my jaw. “It’s been a long time, baby.”

“I know.” I could hear vulnerability in his voice. He was nervous. My chest tightened. But I took a deep breath because if I had to initiate this, I would. “Zach.”

His tongue licked along my ear, sending a hot shiver racing down my spine.

I started unbuttoning his shirt. “What did you tell her when she realized who you were?”

“That I was trying to start something with someone else and that was why I didn’t agree to the date in the first place.”
