“No, I’m not.”I totally am.
“I’ll call you, okay?”
Not even a minute later, she was out the door. I leaned my forehead against it and listened for the sound of the elevator coming and going.
This no-strings-attached shit isn’t going to be as easy as I thought.
CHAPTER 21
Beck
“N?”
Nora squinted at me. “Why do I think you’re guessing wrong just so I’ll keep doing this?”
Because you’re a smart lady.
Her tracing a word on my back had become a new game we played. Well, it washerversion of a game I’d started a week ago when I held her down and spelled out DELICIOUS with licks of my tongue on her pussy. She’d tried to return the favor by licking a word on my cock, but I could never get past the first letter without shoving my dick down her throat. So she’d started spelling words on my back with her nail. It felt great, but that wasn’t why I pretended not to be able to identify the letters. It was because I knew after we were finished, she’d run out the damn door. I had to take whatever I could get with Nora.
“I’m too competitive to let you win. Do it again.”
It didn’t look like she believed me, yet she traced the letter M on my back a third time.
“O?” I said.
She slapped my back and laughed. “Now I know you’re full of shit. There’s no way you could mistake an M for an O.”
I hooked an arm around her waist and rolled us so she was on top. Nora yelped, but there was a smile on her face. I wiped a lock of hair from her cheek. “I want to see you tomorrow.”
“I’ll be in Utah.”
“You know what I meant.” It was after midnight, so technically she and Gram were leaving tomorrow. But I wanted to see her again before she left. “Tonight then.”
“I have to pack. We have an early flight and have to be at the airport at five AM.”
“Packing takes an hour or less. I want to take you out.”
Nora tried to wiggle away from me. “I have too much to do.”
“I’ll send Gwen over to pack for you.”
“Gwen? Your assistant?”
I nodded. “She can run whatever errands you need, too. We can go to that French place you went to with your dad that you liked so much.”
“Beck…”
I knew that tone. Knew the face, too. It was what I got anytime I tried to push the rules an inch or two—have her spend the night at my place instead of rushing out before my dick was even fully flaccid, meet me for a lunch that involved food and not just a quickie, exchange texts for no reason.
“One dinner. You’re leaving tomorrow for two weeks. When you get back, there’s not that much time before you move to California.”
Fuck…there went that heartburn again. I needed to get to the doctor for a checkup. It had been hitting pretty frequently lately.
Nora nibbled on her bottom lip. For the first time, it seemed like she was actually considering breaking her dumb rules. “I did love that restaurant. Though you’ll never be able to get a reservation. I had to make the one I got almost three months in advance.”
“If I can get us a table, will you go?”
“Is the owner a client or something and you already know you can get us in?”
