Then, I caught Gavin watching me, and I was suddenlywideawake.

“What?” I whispered.

He shook his head and stepped into the bedroom. “Nothing.”

“That didn’t look like nothing.”

He plucked the perfect knot I’d created for him this morning and let the ends of the tie hang loose around his neck. He faced me again, his expression a mask of indecision.

Then, he crooked his finger at me.

I swallowed hard and moved toward him. I didn’t stop until I was directly in front of him. His hands moved up into my hair, tilting my face up to meet his. I was frozen in place, my stomach roiling with anticipation of his practiced touch.

“What are you doing?” I managed to get out.

“Kissing my fiancée,” he growled.

Then, his lips landed on mine, and everything within me went pliant. His perfectly pouty lips were heavenly against mine. We’d had that one hot kiss a few nights ago, but I’d been drunk at the time. This was … so much better than that had ever been. He tasted of pure sin, and I wanted to dive headfirst into the heady lust that sprang like a well.

When he pulled back, my eyes fluttered open to look into the emerald orbs. “I’m not your fiancée.”

He laughed deep in his throat. “You are until I take that ring back.” He fingered the ring on my left hand.

“That so?”

“Mmhmm.”

“Well, in that case, I remember a certain pinkie promise.”

His eyes widened in surprise. As if he’d thought that I had completely forgotten about that. “Really?”

“Yes.” I glanced down and then back up at him through my long lashes. “Something about ravishing me.”

“I said, if you wanted that when you were sober.” He cleared his throat, looking hopeful. “Are you sober?”

“Ish,” I teased.

He drew me in closer. “And here I thought, you were offering.”

“Maybe I was,” I said in a breathy whisper. Then, I stood on my tiptoes again and kissed him.

All restraint left Gavin in that moment. As if he’d barely been containing himself, waiting for me to give him the okay. By the way he was kissing me, like a drowned man, that had cost him.

He’d said we should be friends. Now, I was wondering if that had all been a front, because he was not currently kissing me or biting my lip or grinding against me like any friend I’d ever had.

“How hard was sleeping in the same bed with me?” I gasped against his lips.

“Torture.”

“And you were so good.”

“So good,” he said, backing me toward the bed. “I deserve a reward.”

I snickered. “Am I the reward?”

“No,” he said as his hands slid down to my thighs. He lifted me into the air and then dropped me backward on the bed. “Your pussy is.”

I gasped as he buried his head between my legs, hiking up my skirt and kissing his way toward my awaiting pussy. All thoughts of stopping completely fled my mind. I’d wanted Gavin for far too long. I didn’t know what tomorrow held. But until I gave this ring back, I was going to enjoy every luxury Gavin King offered.
