“Yes. Tired—can we go?”

He approaches and smoothes my hair, concerned eyes searching mine. “You’re not okay, I can tell.”

“I’m feeling out of place, that’s all.”

Liam sighs. “Did I do the wrong thing bringing you here? I thought you’d enjoy a night with a band. I remember you and Lou would sneak in to see us play. You were mini-rock chicks.”

I smile weakly. “We can’t rewind life.”

“Why not? I have. I rewound to you.” He touches my lips. “You make life sound as if you can’t have fun anymore. I think you need to let go and enjoy the world.”

Back in Liam’s presence, I’m less self-aware. Out of the two of us, he’ll be noticed, not me. “A night out with a badass rock star could be counted as fun.”

“Hmm. But you got stuck with a sweet one.”

I circle Liam’s taut waist and pull him close. He’s right. Who cares if I don’t fit? I fithim, the man cupping the back of my head and pulling my mouth to his. “Don’t be sweet then,” I say quietly.

Liam sucks in a breath then knocks mine out by slamming me against the wall, hungry mouth closing over mine. In that one move, he wipes away thoughts of anything but the daily obsession over what sex with this man would be like. I slide my hands beneath his T-shirt, exploring the tight abs and digging my nails into the muscles of his lower back. Liam growls and pushes against me, his obvious arousal spiking my own as we continue to explore each other’s mouths. I can’t move and barely breathe, lost in the heady kiss.

Liam pushes his hand beneath the thin material of my top and trails his finger lightly along my side. My legs weaken and if he didn’t have me pinned against the wall by his hips, I’d be a heap on the floor. When Liam’s large palm closes over my breast and his fingers slide into the thin lace of my bra and brushes my hardened nipple, I know sweet isn’t in Liam’s plans tonight.

He stops as quickly as he started and rests his head on mine. “Cerys, I want you on your own. No Ella, no Blue Phoenix, and no dickheads making you feel like you’re beneath them.”

I lick the taste of Liam from my lips wanting more, and determined more is what I’ll get.

Tonight is all about Liam, freedom, and me.

“Let’s go home,” I whisper and nip his bottom lip with my teeth.
