She turned the prettiest shade of pink and bit the corner of her lip. My mouth watered, and my dick twitched, begging me to move toward her. I coughed and grabbed the bowl from her, pouring sugar in and mixing it with a whisk. I practically fucking glowed from the inside, knowing she’d been watching me instead of paying attention to her date. “I bet he hated that.”

“He asked me out again.”

My gaze snapped to hers. She was already watching me intently, her eyes roaming over my face, trying to read me. “Are you going?”

“I think so,” she replied, still scanning for my reaction.

The muscles in my back tightened, and my mouth went bone-dry. I fucking hated this.I didn’t have the strength to lock her out, not when I was so close to losing her forever. I dipped a finger into the flour mix and ran it over the tip of her nose.

She scoffed, mouth falling open. “You didn’t just do that?”

“You’ve got something right there.” I pointed at her.

“Oh, do I?” she growled, taking a fistful of powder before throwing it at me.

Specks of white sprayed my shirt. “You’re fucking done for.”

“You started it!” She squealed a laugh, circling the other side of the island, and a wide smile took over her face, stealing my breath. I’d missed her so fucking much. With flour in my hand, I chased her around, easily snagging her waist.

“No. No. No. No.” She wiggled in my arm, trying to escape, and I nearly groaned when her ass pressed against my hardening cock.

“You deserve this.” I went to cover her face, but she twisted, and my fingers landed along her jaw, then drifted over her throat.

She stilled, and her heart beat against my hand. I shifted, running my nose up the column of her neck, smiling as a shiver raked through her and goose bumps covered her skin. I kept her in place with my hand on her neck and ghosted my other one over her body.

Her breath hitched when my fingers trailed over her stomach, making sure to keep a sliver of a gapbetween us. The air grew thick, and each breath felt heavy in my lungs as I breathed in her scent and imagined what she’d feel like if I touched her.

The thin fabric over her shorts tickled my palm before the heat of her thighs sank into it. Piper’s head fell back, resting on my shoulder, completely exposing herself to me, and she let out a small moan when I tightened my fingers around her throat.

Fuck. My hips jerked forward, grinding my dick into her ass, and she pressed firmly into it. My mind went completely white before I remembered to breathe.

I followed the contour of her thigh inward, and she adjusted her stance to make room for me. My pulse rushed through my ears, blanking all sounds but hers. My fingers drifted over her core, still not touching, and I growled when a whimper escaped her mouth. My fingers twitched to touch her. To feel if she was as wet for me as I thought she’d be. Memories of burying my cock into her slick—

The thought jerked me back to reality, and I let go of her, stepping back. The air was cool against my skin, and I immediately regretted it.

Piper turned with wide eyes. “Is it me?”

“No. Of course not.” I shook my head.

“Then what’s the problem?” She looked so calm, collected, but her next words gutted me. “Nothing happened before. We were just friends, and it was just one night.”

I stepped toward her, and she took a step back. “Fuck, Piper. Is that what you think?”

“That’s what Iknow, Lucas. If it was any more than that, you wouldn’t have disappeared.”

I groaned, clenching my hands into fists to stop myself from grabbing her. I turned and laced my fingers on top of my head. “I’m sorry.”

“Lucas, don’t. I don’t need an apology…I need…I need to forget.”

I spun back around and was met with pleading blue eyes. She took a hesitant step toward me.

She lifted onto her toes and placed a soft kiss on the corner of my mouth. “I need you to make me forget.”

Fuck. My control snapped like a band, and I dug my fingers through her hair, securing her mouth to mine. Her sweet taste filled my mouth, and I was lost. I dug my fingers beneath her thighs and lifted her to sit on the counter, then stepped between them. She devoured my mouth, dragging her tongue across mine and sinking her teeth into my bottom lip before soothing the sting with her tongue.

I circled her knees with my fingers and tugged her closer, groaning when the heat of her pussy aligned with my cock. Piper’s nails dug into my shoulder, and she rocked against me, searching for the friction her body demanded. I dropped my mouth to her exposed neck and ran a line of open-mouthed kisses to her ear, gripping her hips. “I’m going to make you come so hardyou won’t need to forget because you won’t be able to think.” I slid my hands higher until the heat of her stomach scorched my palms. “And before you come down from it, I’m going to do it again.”

She whimpered, dropping her head back as I raised her shirt, exposing her inch by inch. She reached down, helping pull the thin material over her head, and leaned back, resting on her elbows. My dick wept at the sight of her displayed for me. Her small breasts lifted in the air, tipped by rose-colored nipples. She was fucking delicious. “Perfect,” I breathed.
