Both Wolfgang and Iskandar appeared at the end of the corridor to see what was happening. She, of course, noticed, and her eyes widened farther.
“Are you conducting interviews or something?”
I reached forward with one hand and started to push with the other. “Goodbye, Augusta. I will see you later.”
“No, wait. What’s going on?”
“Come on.” I pulled her out into the cold.
“Fine, don’t tell me.” She huffed. “But at least bring one of them for next weekend. Malik is having a second youth active day.”
“Okay.”
“So, we’re good?”
“Yes, we’re good.” I would say anything at this point to get her to leave.
She nodded and walked off my porch to her red Porsche. “See you later.”
I waved and waited for her to drive off, shivering again and running back inside. Gale was back where I left him, the rest of everyone else now gone.
“You and your sister are a bit alike,” he stated.
“We are not,” I said.
“If you say so. Are you still mad at her?”
“She refuses to let me be,” I muttered, standing in front of him. “And now that she thinks I’m apparently interviewing all of you for my future husband. I don’t have the right to be mad, either.”
“Wolfgang is too young for you. And Iskandar...well, he’s married to his career, so that’s not an option, either.”
“Taking out your competition?” I teased.
“Am I still in the race?”
“You are the only one—only one competing,” I added that second part quickly. “If you still want to, I guess. You don’t seem as enthusiastic as before I left, though.”
“I’m trying a new approach,” he replied. “My brother told me to try to be your friend first. However, you are really making that hard for me.”
His gaze dropped to chest again, so I crossed my arms over my nipples quickly. Why were they so damn sensitive? Jeez!
“I’m not doing it on purpose.”
“That’s the problem.” His face was closer to mine now, and I couldn’t look away from his lips. “You are not doing anything, and yet I keep thinking about you, wanting you. I am not just saying that, either. If you knew how badly I wanted to kiss you...you’d disappear again or reject me again. So, I am trying to take it slow...very slow.”
I didn’t want very slow, though.
“So here is to our growing friendship.” He stretched out his hand.
I saw and ignored it, closing the distance between our lips.
She was evil.
She was purposely trying to torture me.
And I was just going to let her because it felt so damn good. Feeling her lips on mine as I wrapped my arms around her, pressing her body against mine, and doing exactly what I had wanted to do for days now had me overflowing with excitement. When her mouth opened for me and her breasts brushed up against my chest, my heart began to pound faster, and I knew I was in heaven. I wanted to stay there so badly. I wanted to kiss her like this until the sun rose and set again.
If only, I thought as our lips separated. When I opened my eyelids, her brown eyes seemed to sparkle. Sighing, I put my forehead to hers, holding her face.
