“No buts,” she cut me off and headed to the door. Nothing she said made any sense, and it was only made worse by her leaving.

She opened the door, and my breath caught in my lungs at the sight of Lucas standing in the hallway, wearing a perfectly tailored suit. He walked in, trading places with Misty, and stood so close his shiny dress shoes nearly touched my toes. I closed my mouth and swallowed hard, my eyes still wide as they traveled over him.

He leaned in, and his lips grazed my ear, sending shivers through me. “I love it when you look at me like that.”

He lifted a garment bag—I hadn’t noticed, too busy staring at the way his pants outlined his muscular thighs —and opened it, revealing a stunning indigo-blue gown.

My mouth dropped open, and I trailed my fingers over the smooth satin fabric that caught the light as it moved.

A low laugh rumbled in Lucas’s chest. “You like it, babe?”

My gaze snapped to his. “Huh?”

His smile turned devious. “I asked if you liked the dress.”

“If I liked the dress?” Somehow, I was unable to form words that weren’t a direct repeat of his.

“I’ll take that as a yes.” He handed me a small black shopping bag with the name Agent Provocateur printed on the side. The kind only supplied at high-end stores. “You’ll want to put these on first.”

I carefully unwrapped a black bra that had sheer cups with flowers overlaid to provide coverage. From touch alone, I knew it must have cost a fortune. I glanced at Lucas, but he just nodded at the bag. Next was a matching set of panties with the same sheer fabric and flower print. I’d never felt anything that decadent. I breathed out, “These are gorgeous.”

“Put them on,” he rasped and sat on my bed, his elbows on his knees as he watched me.

I’d changed out of his hoodie earlier before Becca started on my hair into a front-close shirt. I reached for the bottom button and popped it through the hole. Lucas’s eyes darkened with every new inch of exposed skin.

I stripped out of my bottoms and stood in my mismatched cotton underwear. There was a stark contrast between me and Lucas in his suit.

He raised a brow. “Off.”

I reached behind me and unclasped my bra, letting it drop to the floor, and warmth flooded my chest as his eyes hooded at the sight of me. Without looking away, I lowered my underwear and stood bare for him.

He swallowed hard and licked his lips. “Come here.”

I sucked in a breath and stood between his thighs. With his height, he easily took my mouth with his own, and my lips curved at his full-body shiver.

“What next?” I whispered.

Lucas reached for the sheer panties and gently gripped my calf just above my ankle. I lifted it, and he slid the fabric over one foot, then the next. I couldn’t breathe as he guided it up my thighs until they fit snugly over my hips and leaned over to place a kiss on my apex.

My head rolled back, sucking in air, and I would’ve collapsed if Lucas hadn’t been holding me.

“Perfect.” His words soaked through the sheer fabric. I whimpered when he pulled back, and he grinned up at me. “I’m not done giving you your present.”

I swore my heart skipped a beat when he reached back into the bag and pulled out a garter and stocking. His fingers trailed over my sensitive skin, his eyes focused where we touched, and I’d never felt this attractive in my life. He made me feel like I was sex incarnate. He kissed my thigh above each band, then stood and slipped my bra over each arm, turning me to do up the back.

“All I’m going to think about all night is peeling these off of you.” His hand splayed over my naked stomach, sending heat flooding my core. His heart pounded against my shoulder blades, and I couldn’t for the life of me remember why we weren’t doing that right now. I was burning from within, closer to combustion with each touch.

He moved from behind me, and I followed him as he picked up my dress, holding it open for me. “Hold my shoulders and step in.” I followed his direction, suddenly wanting to do anything he told me to.

The fabric felt cool against my heated skin, and I sucked in a gasp as he zipped it up.

The dress fit me perfectly, hugging my curves and dropping to the ground with a short train. Lucas stepped back and ran his thumb over his bottom lip. “Nearly perfect.”

My mouth popped open. “Nearly?”

He pulled something from his pocket, and I gasped when he held a white-gold necklace in front of me. There was a quarter-sized sapphire in the middle flanked by what I could only assume were diamonds.

I shook my head, barely forming words. “It’s too much.”
