He flashed me a grin.
Shit, he was pretty.
“If I buy cake, it’s going to be for you.”
“Well, I’m not going to complain about that.” I leaned my head against his chest, and he wrapped his arms around my back.
Breathing in his scent, I suddenly understood why he was always sniffing me.
He just smelledgood. Like comfort, and happiness.
Like home.
Not that I was trusting him completely, or going all-in with him.
We were fated, but we weren’t mates. Not yet, at least. Not completely. He said that was what he’d wanted, but we’d only spent the one day together. And we hadn’t talked about what he was going to do about his pack, or why he felt like he couldn’t leave them in the first place.
“Alright, we’re going grocery shopping. And you’d better not strip down to your shorts—I might accidentally grab your ass while it hangs out of those damn things,” he grumbled at me.
I laughed. “How do you accidentally grab someone’s ass?”
“Notsomeone’s; My female’s. When it taunts me like that, there’s no telling where my hand might end up.” His palm grazed my butt, and I pressed against him a little harder. His erection met my lower belly, and I grinned.
“Horny, huh?”
“How could I not be, with you pressed against me like this?” He squeezed my ass.
My grin widened. “I’m wearing a lot of clothes.”
“I know what’s underneath them, and can’t fucking touch it.” His grip on my butt tightened, almost painfully.
“About that…” I trailed off, feeling slightly guilty about Iris’s admission at the bar. “I feel like I should probably tell you, I wasn’t going to admit how you could move from the release to the possession part of the mating process. Iris texted you the answer from my phone, while I was working. I didn’t know until last night, right before you got there.”
He nodded. “Not surprising. I deserved it.”
“You did,” I agreed.
His grip on my ass tightened further, and I inhaled sharply. During the climax, we’d definitely learned that we liked to be rough with each other.
Definitely.
“Who hit on you at the bar?” he asked me, his voice low.
I made a face, and said nothing.
“Mo.” His voice was gravelly.
“Pretty sure I signed an NDA before I started working there,” I lied.
“Not a fucking chance Saul has an NDA.”
Saul was my boss’s name, not that I called him that. He didn’t seem anything like my old boss, but I wasn’t risking it with that shit.
Not worth it.
“Tell me,” he growled at me.
“I’m not going to do that. You can go to work with me and watch out for flirty bastards if you’re that worried about it.” I patted his back in condolence.
