After the show was over, I decided it was best to leave on a high note. I said my goodbye to Quinn, and Sasha walked into the hallway with me. When the latch on the door clicked behind us, I spun her around, pressing her against the wall and dipping my head to breathe in her scent along the side of her neck.
I felt the shiver run through her and couldn’t resist dropping a hot kiss just below her ear. That led to another and another before I dragged my tongue along the side of her neck, nipping lightly as she arched into me, letting out a low moan. My cock was swollen and aching. Desperate for more, I lifted my head, claiming her mouth with mine. God, I fuckinglovedkissing her. She made these little sounds in her throat that drove me wild. I could feel her warm, soft curves pressing against my chest.
My hand slipped under the hem of her shirt, coasting over the curve of her belly and cupping a breast. I could feel the tight peak of her nipple and pinched it lightly. She rocked her hips against mine. I slid my other hand down to cup her bottom, pressing her against my arousal. I was throbbing for her. I was on the verge of finding my release in my pants, something I hadn’t done since I was a teenage boy. One kiss led to the next, and her palm slid under my shirt, her touch silky and smooth.
I didn’t even hear the door behind us open until a voice said, “Excuse me.”
My lips broke from Sasha’s abruptly as I lifted my head and glanced over my shoulder. I kept Sasha shielded, seeing as I had one hand up her shirt.
An elderly woman was standing in the doorway directly across the hall. She had curly silver hair and wore a hot-pink bathrobe with bunny slippers. She eyed me with unabashed curiosity. “You must be Noah,” she announced.
I managed to stealthily get my hand out from under Sasha’s clothes. Blessedly, I had already put my jacket on before I walked out the door, so I smoothly adjusted it to obscure my arousal as I turned.
Sasha looked over at the woman I presumed was her neighbor, Melanie. “Hey there. Eavesdropping?” she teased.
Oh, good. Sasha didn’t seem too upset at the interruption.
“Of course. Somebody’s got to get some around here.”
Sasha rolled her eyes. “This is Noah.” Looking at me, she added with a sweep of her hand toward the woman, “And this is Melanie.”
“Nice to meet you, Noah,” she said with a smile.
“Likewise,” I offered.
“I’m not a witch, just a nosy old lady. Plus, I keep an eye on things,” Melanie offered with a grin.
“Much appreciated,” I replied, dipping my chin in acknowledgment.
“You best do right by Sasha,” Melanie added.
“Melanie!” Sasha pushed away from the wall. “He’s an old friend.”
“I’m here, you know. You don’t have to talk about me like I’m not.”
Melanie ignored me, casting a sharp eye on Sasha. “I have a bone to pick with him, not you.”
Good grief. First Quinn, now the neighbor. Sasha had not warned me that she had a gauntlet I had to pass and more than one test on the way to winning her heart.
“I promise I will do right by her,” I said, addressing Melanie. “I already told Quinn something along the same lines.”
Melanie nodded. Her gaze swept from the top of my head all the way down to my shoes and back up. Nothing about it was sexual, but holy hell, I felt as if she were X-raying me.
She looked toward Sasha. “He’s cute. He’ll do.”
Sasha’s cheeks were bright red. “After Quinn and this, he’ll probably never come back.”
“No chance of that.” I laughed because what I wanted to say was for Sasha’s ears only.
“He’ll be back,” Melanie said confidently. “Nice to meet you.” She closed her door, and we could hear the bolt sliding in place.
“Sorry about that,” Sasha said with a shake of her head. “I’ll walk you down.”
We stopped on the landing at the bottom of the stairs. I stepped to her, palming her cheek and looking into her eyes. “You’re not going to scare me away, Sasha.” I dusted a kiss across her lips.
“What about Quinn and Melanie?” Her eyes searched mine.
“Nope.”
