“If that’s your pickup line, I can see why you have so much sex.”
“Shit, Aurora.” I pulled away, a sinking feeling spreading through me. “I don’t—”
“Sorry, I’m sorry.” She grabbed my hand and tugged gently. “I’m just nervous. You make me nervous. The way girls fall over their feet for a shot with you. Beautiful girls, Noah. Girls who—”
“I’m going to stop you right there.” I pressed a finger to her lips, trapping whatever self-deprecating bullshit was about to come out of her mouth. “There isn’t a single thing wrong with you or your body.”
“Noah—”
“No, Aurora. Let me show you. Let me show you how much I want you.”
Because if I didn’t get to touch her in the next five seconds, there was a good chance I might combust and blow in my sweats. Every muscle in my body was wound tight, pure lust vibrating through me.
I’d told myself to do the right thing. Over and over, I’d told myself not to touch Aurora again. But I’d never been very good at following the rules. And she was one I wanted to break again and again.
It was more than that though. I wanted her to see what I saw every time I looked at her. I wanted her to feel sexy and feminine and wanted.
She deserved that.
I didn’t know much about what had gone down with her mom or Austin or her ex, but I had a good suspicion it had shaped her. Molded and defined her.
Hurt her.
I knew a little something about that. About how hard it was to silence the ghosts of your past.
“Okay. One night. You get me for one night.”
I frowned. “One night, shortcake? I’m not sure that’s going to cut it for—”
She pressed a finger to my lips, offering me a sad smile. “One night. We both know that’s all it can be.”
One night, my ass.
But I didn’t argue. Something told me Aurora would double down and put a stop to this if I pushed. So I conceded, giving her a small nod. Letting her think she’d won the war when really, she’d only won this battle.
“Now, come here.” I grabbed the hem of her t-shirt again, twisting it around my fist to pull her closer.
“Lights off,” she breathed, a hint of vulnerability in her voice. “I want the lights—”
“Not happening, babe. I want to see your eyes the first time you come for me. Now stop talking and get naked.”
A tremble went through her. “You first.”
“It would be my pleasure.” I quirked a brow, smirking.
I made a show of stripping out of my t-shirt, flexing my biceps a little. Feeling ten feet fucking tall when her eyes turned molten emerald.
“Like what you see, shortcake?” I asked, pushing my sweats over my hips.
“Oh my God, Noah! A little warning next ti—” She stopped herself.
“Sorry, what was that?”
She gave me a pointed look. “Okay, I got a close look at the goods. You can go now.” Backing away from me, a hint of amusement played in her expression.
I liked this version of her—flirty and playful. Not taking herself too seriously. And I fucking loved that it only seemed to come out around me—at least, I hoped it did.
Licking my palm, I fisted my dick, pumping it slowly.
