“Thanks.” He stepped up beside me. “This is my pride and joy. I love my Harley.”

“I can see why. She’s beautiful.” I’d always had a thing for bikes, even though I’d never ridden on one.

“When I can’t sleep, I often go out for a ride on the coast road. Like I said to you earlier, it’s a great way to clear your head.”

“I like the sound of that. The breeze blowing around you, the noise of the engine.” I was going to saythe throb between your legs, but after my last thoughts, it was probably best I didn’t.

An arm snaked around my shoulder. “Too late,” he murmured close to my ear. “I already heard your thoughts.”

We laughed together, which I was glad about because the sexual tension was beyond torturous.

He reached over to a workbench and grabbed two black helmets. There was a leather jacket hanging up. When he put that on, I was going to be a goner for sure. Before he heard it, I managed to stifle that thought.

His gaze landed on me, eyes narrowed. “I almost caught that one, but you managed to stop it before it got out.”

I giggled. “Maybe I’ll tell you later.”

I went silent as I wondered about something. Antoine had picked up on my hesitancy.

“Come on, you can ask and tell me anything.”

“Okay.” I felt my face burn. “This physical pull between us. Does it get less once we’re joined? I mean, as in bonded, not in the middle of sex.” I put my head in my hands. “Gah, this is so embarrassing.”

Two strong arms turned me to face him. He took my hands away and I closed my eyes. I felt his finger tilt my chin upwards.

“Hey, don’t be embarrassed. This is a sensible question. Come on. Open those beautiful eyes for me.”

How could I refuse when he spoke so sweetly? I opened them and was hit by the full force of his intense blue eyes. Yep, another cliché, but a girl could really drown in them.

“This is going to be a first for me too. But I can tell you what my friends have said. It’s the most intense sexual experience they’ve ever had. And once mated for eternity, that sexual intensity stays too.”

“Oh my God. And I thought the way I was feeling now was powerful.”

His lips fell to my forehead and kissed me before he held me close to his body. His hands went to my hair, mine to his broad shoulders. This wasn’t sexual but tender and warm, and I liked the feeling.

When we broke apart, he kept on stroking my hair. “We’ll be mate virgins and learn together.”

“Sounds good to me.”

“Right.” He clapped his hands. “Put this on and let’s get out of here before I decide we’ll have a make-out session in one of the cars instead.”

“Agreed. Perhaps we’ll try that when we come home.” My turn to wink now.

He shook his head. “Here,” he said handing me the leather jacket. “Put this on. I don’t need it. Hybrids don’t feel temperature changes. Our bodies regulate themselves,” he explained.

It smelled of leather and Antoine as I put it on. Yum, a great combination. I watched as he mounted the bike. He even managed to make that look like a sexual act, one long, lean leg slung sexily over the bike. Then I was snuggled up close behind him, arms wrapped around his waist, and we were heading for the coast road. I thought I caught the scent of something not right but shrugged it off as something on the sea breeze.

ChapterTwelve

Antoine

Being on my bike with this beautiful woman behind me was as close to heaven as I could get. The warmth from her body permeated my skin. I got the feeling that this sensation would only get stronger. How many times had I imagined this exact scenario? Too many to count, that was for sure.

“This is amazing. I love it.”

Donna’s excitement was infectious. Even via telepathy, I could almost hear her squealing with delight.

“I’m so happy that you do. This is one of my favourite pastimes.”
