“If this is your idea of making me cancel last-minute, then you’re so wrong.”
His eyes were very amused. And very much on my chest. I checked if I was decent. And I was. So why was he looking at me all funny?
Oh, right. A plain white shirt with a red bra underneath was never just a plain white shirt for guys. Even if I was just lounging in my own damn bedroom.
“At least you possess the decency not to touch me inappropriately for once.”
“Oh, I’m touching you alright.” He let his mouth fall open and roamed his gaze leisurely over my breasts. “I’m touching you with my eyes. Thoroughly and immensely inappropriately.”
“Charming,” Steph added.
“Tell her to leave, D. I’ve got something to show you.” Ares stepped forward while Steph pretended to gag.
“Perve-alert!”
“So, it is for me!” I sat up on my knees and bounced on my bed.
“Yep,” Ares replied and acknowledged Steph with a cold glance.
“Then sit!”
Ares plopped down beside me without hesitation. He even seemed pretty excited.
Steph exaggerated a gasp. “How is that possible? You taught him to do tricks?”
Ares unpacked the paper bag, handed over what seemed like a large shoe box and, with a wink, retorted, “Anything for a little treat.”
Gazing into my eyes with mischief, he bobbed his eyes accompanied by a dirty smirk. The silver slyness had never looked so playful. And hot.
Looking at him didn’t hurt, right?
Our gaze deepened.
Looking really didn’t hurt.
No, Dita, no. Do not go there. This wasn’t supposed to be two steps forward, one step back kind of dance between Ares and me.
I sighed. With his gift, it was inevitable not to long for some amicable progress. Nothing more, scout’s honor.
“Rain boots?”
“Red ones, too. Like your, uh…” he trailed off, completely off track again as he traced the lines of my lingerie.
I knuckled his chin. “Up here, Volt.”
He grinned. Didn’t blush, though. He wouldn’t be Ares if he’d shown any signs of shyness.
“Welp, that did the trick.” Steph looked pretty smug when she pointed out the piece of lingerie. “Next time I take you out, you can be sure as shit, I’ll have other pieces of undergarment for you.” She rolled her eyes when she saw Ares stare at the same particular spot of my body. “He does drool a lot.”
I giggled as Ares padded the corner of his mouth and didn’t find it wet.
Steph laughed and winked at me, “Bye, sexy hoe!”
“Bye, beautiful bitch!”
Silence stretched a little while I eyed the red boot in Ares’ hand. “Now, those are lovely terms of endearment.”
I shrugged. “Steph’s a little eccentric.”
