I’M NOT SURE who came up with the theory gorgeous men are terrible in bed, but they clearly didn’t know what they were talking about. I just had the most incredible sex with the most handsome man—a man I’ve been secretly pining over for months.

And he’s here in my bed.

And he’s fucking perfect.

Cliche or not, I’m pretty sure he’s just ruined me for every other man out there. Holy Shit, it was amazing. I can’t remember the last time a man went down on me for no reason at all, other than he just wanted to. It would be a big, fat never. And I think he enjoyed it.

I don’t know him very well yet, but if I were going to create the perfect man on paper, Chase would be it. He’s handsome—no, that’s a lie. He’s beautiful. His body is a solid mass of muscle—strong—capable, and sexy-as-fuck. I’m enamored. I can see myself falling hard for him.

Shit! I’ve got it bad, I think as I lie here blanketed by his warm, bulky mass. There must be something wrong with him, right?

“I’ll be back in a second.” He pushes up from the bed, giving me a tender kiss on the lips before trekking to the bathroom.

He returns with a warm washcloth and begins to clean me gently. Oh! No one has ever been thoughtful enough to care about me afterward.

“I can’t believe that’s all from me,” I say, a little embarrassed.

“Shit, I’m not sure it’s all from you.” What?

He scrambles off the bed, and sprints back to the bathroom.

What the hell?

The panicked look on his face when he returns, has my heart hammering in my chest.

“I think the condom broke.”

“What? How?”

“Shit Mel, I’m sorry, I didn’t even realize.”

No, no, no, no, just NO!

“Maybe if you didn’t fuck me like a caveman with that anaconda dick of yours.”

The corner of his mouth quirks up. “You didn’t seem to mind when you were coming all over my anaconda. Are you on the pill?”

Why is he smirking at me? He should be freaking out right now. Like I am.

“No, Chase, I’m not on the pill. I haven’t been with a man in over two years.” Shit! Think, Melanie. “I’m due for my period in a few days, so maybe we’re safe. I don’t think you can get pregnant just before your period starts.” His face tells me he’s not entirely buying it. Shit, neither am I.

“You’re probably right. I’m sure we’re fine.”

“Yeah, I’m sure we’re fine.” Fuck!

After long silences and awkward glances, I’m surprised he’s not bolting out the front door. Instead, he climbs back in the bed, wrapping me in his massive arms. The tension I had a few minutes ago has disappeared.

“You had an awful lot of condoms in your wallet. Are you a man whore?”

He bursts into laughter. “No, I’m not a man whore, Melanie. I’ve had a few random hookups since I’ve been home, but I’m not out scouring the streets every night.” He scowls at me for a second, then pulls me tighter into his body. I should probably just shut up and enjoy being in his arms.

“Have you had any serious relationships?”

My back is to his chest so I can’t see his face. He’s quiet for a time, then he sighs.

“Just one.”

Even though I can’t see his face, I feel the tension in his body, and I know he doesn’t want to talk about it.
