He brushes a lock of hair off my forehead and tucks it behind my ear. “It’s about 6 a.m. I gotta get going so I can get the shop open.”
“Oh. Um. Let me give you a ride to your car.” I rise, but he stops me.
“My friend Jay is coming to pick me up.”
“Oh. Okay.”
“But I’ll call you later. And trust me, it’ll be before three days.”
I exhale a small laugh. “If not, I’ll be calling you.”
“Deal.” He places a soft kiss to my lips, but what I really want to do is tug him to me and continue where we left off last night.
He climbs off the couch, and a few seconds later he’s out the front door. I flop onto the cushion. A giddy grin takes over my face. Last night was amazing. It’s been so long since I’ve had an orgasm come remotely close to the one Ledger delivered. A delicious tingle creeps up my spine just thinking about it. I shimmy against the soft fabric as I do a little happy dance. Then I realize I’m still half naked. Where are my pants?
NINE
A SEXY SURPRISE
Olivia
Over the next week, we’ve both been so busy we haven’t been able to spend any time together. Either I’ve had late night meetings with my mom, or he’s been too tired after work. But somehow, we’ve managed a few late-night phone calls and the occasional text message throughout the day. There’s been a few times when he’s been so busy, he’s forgotten to eat so I have food delivered to his shop. When he mentioned he was going to be spending his Saturday afternoon there, I had to take matters into my own hands. I’m making sure he gets lunch, plus it’s an excuse to see him.
I pull my SUV into an empty spot in front of Ledger's garage. Shutting off the ignition, I grab the brown bag sitting on my passenger seat. I push open the driver’s door, the smell of gasoline and motor oil lingering in the air.
I stroll to the gray steel door next to the larger overhead door and pull it open. Music blares through the garage. Good thing I didn’t knock, I would have been outside for hours. There’s a car raised on jacks in front of one of the tool benches with a light on. If I had to guess, Ledger’s working over there. My heels tap on the cement, but with the music, I’m sure anyone who isn’t next to me couldn’t hear. When I reach the tool bench, I drop the bag on top. Where the hell is he?
Strands of dark hair peek out from underneath the car. I glance down and shriek. My heart nearly leaps out of my chest. Ledger’s face and shoulders come into view as he rolls himself out from under the car.
“You scared the shit out of me.” My breath is heavy as I clutch my chest.
“Sorry about that. One thing I’m not sorry about is you coming into my shop wearing that dress.”
I press the fabric between my legs and squeeze them shut. Heat creeps over my chest and up my neck.
“Don’t worry, duchess. Nothing I haven’t seen before.” Ledger rolls all the way from under the car and rises to his feet. He wipes off his hands, presses a button on a remote, and silence fills the shop. In two steps he’s standing in front of me. He grips the nape of my neck, holding me in place while he presses his lips to mine. His fingertips dig into my soft skin, sending a delicious bite through my entire body. This time, my knees clench for a different reason. He breaks away from the kiss, but his grip on my neck doesn’t loosen. “What are you doing here?”
I release my hold and my dress floats around my knees. My eyes flutter open and my swollen lips part slightly. This is the first time I’ve seen him with his hair down. My fingers twitch, wanting to comb through his shoulder length locks. “I came here to see you and make sure you eat, but we can continue with more of the kissing.” I rise on my tippy toes and kiss him.
He steps into me, forcing me backward. Then another step. And another. Until my butt hits the edge of the tool bench. I run my hands down his blue button-down work shirt, popping the top button as I work my way down. He deepens the kiss. Hard and possessive. As if it’s the only thing worth doing right now. His stomach growls, interrupting my thoughts, and I pull away.
“Sounds like you’re hungry.”
“I’m hungry for you.” He presses a kiss to my cheek, then down to my neck. I shiver from his scratchy scruff. He sucks on my sensitive skin, and I moan.
“No. Let me feed you actual food. I brought some sandwiches.” I tilt my head to give him better access while I run my fingers through his hair.
His lips freeze on my neck. He pulls away and peers over my shoulder. “It does smell good.”
“Yes. Let’s go eat. Then we can continue the neck sucking after.” I twist around and pluck the bag off the tool bench. “Where can we eat?”
He pulls an elastic band from his breast pocket and finger combs his hair back, securing it with the band. “Follow me. We’ll go to my office.”
He grips my hand in his as we walk side by side across the garage and down a short, narrow hallway. He pushes the door the rest of the way open with his foot before flipping on the light switch. The buzz of the fluorescent lights fills the room before it flickers to life. I round the side and hop on the top of his desk. Ledger continues down the hallway and I hear a faucet turning on. When he enters his office, he takes a seat in the leather desk chair. His hands now clean from all the dirt and grease. I cross one leg over my knee, the hem of my dress riding up. I twist at my waist and open the brown bag, pulling out a brown wrapper. Peeling away the paper, I hold out the baguette sandwich to Ledger. He leans in and takes a bite. While he chews, I take a bite of my own.
I moan. “This is so good. Do you like it?”
“Could use some more meat, but it’s not bad.” He taps my leg to get my attention for another bite and I hold out the sandwich to him.
