I’d spent the day running from one patient to the other and was finally on my way home. I only had five patients, but it seemed like they were spread out all over the state. I didn’t mind, though, it was a nice break from working in the clinic two days a week.
If I hadn’t run into traffic jams along the way, I would have had enough time to get a shower before Liam arrived. I’d planned spaghetti for dinner. It was easy, but I also made a killer sauce and it had been cooking in the crockpot all day. All that was left to do was to cook the pasta and throw in some garlic knots.
I pulled into the parking lot and parked right in front of my apartment door. I couldn’t believe my luck. Every tenant was assigned a spot directly in front of their doors, but it was a rarity that mine was available when I needed it. I hadn’t complained though. It wasn’t that big of a deal to me. I turned off my car, grabbed my purse, and opened my door. The outside lights weren’t on yet, as it was just beginning to turn dark.
Just as I reached my door and was about to insert the key my phone rang. I paused and dug it out of my purse, smiling when I saw David’s name come across the screen.
“Hello.”
“Hey, honey. You just getting home?”
“Yeah, are you stalking me or something?”
He laughed. “How was your day?”
“Busy as usual. Why? Is everything all right?”
“Everything is great!” he responded with unaccustomed enthusiasm. “I have someone I want you to meet. I was wondering if you’d join us for dinner.”
I was a little surprised by his request. Not so much by the fact that that he wanted me to meet his new girlfriend—David and I would always be friends; he was the closest thing to a best friend that I’d ever had—but by the fact that he hadn’t waited very long to replace me. I wondered if he’d been enamored with someone else when we’d been together, just as I had been.
“We could go to your favorite place. I’ll pay.”
“Are you trying to bribe me?” I laughed. Knowing him, he would have paid anyway. “I can’t tonight, David. I have my own plans.”
“Tomorrow night then?”
I thought about what I had going on tomorrow. I had to work at the clinic for a few hours, but I had nothing planned after that. “Okay, tomorrow works for me. I’ll meet you there, say around six?”
“We’ll be there. See you then.”
I didn’t even get out a goodbye before David hung up. Shaking my head, I slipped my key into the lock, but that’s as far as I got. Without warning, I was grabbed from behind. A strong arm circled my waist and pulled me against a big body. At the same time a hand covered my mouth to stifle the cry that squeaked out.
“You know how dangerous what you just did is?”
God, I hadn’t even heard him ride in. Smooth lips brushed against my ear as Liam uttered the words into it. I shuddered from the feel of his warm breath and the way that he ran his whiskered cheek up and down the side of my neck. “You left yourself wide open for someone to come up behind you and do this.”
This was the way he began to nibble his way up and down my neck. He removed his hand from my mouth, and I began to pant with arousal when I felt his erection against my ass. I couldn’t resist pushing back against it. Hearing Liam’s growl was music to my ears and gave me a sense of confidence I’d never had before.
“This doesn’t feel dangerous,” I managed to get out.
“It’s very dangerous, baby. What you make me feel...”
His hand, which had been cupping my chin, slowly began to slide further down my throat, over my chest, and stopped at my breast. I caught my breath when his fingers pinched at my nipples until they were hard and burning. I dropped my purse and keys to the ground, lost in what he was doing to me.
“Are you hungry, Liam?”
He growled low and nosed my ear. “You have no idea.”
“I think I do,” I countered breathlessly. “I’ve been hungry for months...”
“Fuck, baby, I shouldn’t have come.”
I leaned further into him, letting the strength of his hard body and how protected he made me feel sink in. “I made spaghetti.” I crooked my neck so he had easier access.
“Spaghetti?”
I laughed softly at the confusion in his voice.
