"What?"

"Were you bothered how she greeted me, Alex?”

"No!" I lean back in my chair and cross my arms while narrowing my eyes at him. "But you signed that contract, remember? And it states no hooking up with other women for six months."

His grin gets even wider as he hears my rant. "Relax. Tina is not and never has been one of my hookups. She's a former client of ours. She and her husband wanted to open this place, but needed an investor. Nick helped her on that part while I took care of the contract side of the business. And that's how I know her."

I bite the inside of my lip.Shit.To stop making a fool of myself, I change the subject. "Samantha told me your mom is coming to visit."

He brushes his hands over his face. "Yeah, I told her about Samantha, and now she wants to meet her. She's coming this Sunday."

"And you also told her you're seeing someone?"

"Yeah, I did. She is keen on meeting you. She doubts if I'm sincere."

I chuckle. "You fooled your mom a few times, didn't you?" The smug expression on his face tells me enough. "So am I the woman your mother wants for you?" I ask, tapping the menu on the table.

Straightaway, his brows bump together in a scowl. "My mother and I don't see eye to eye when it comes to my dating life. Her expectations differ from mine." His eyes shift outside, and I notice he’s withdrawing into himself. I don't like to see him so tense, especially after what he's done the last twenty-four hours. So in the hopes to distract him, I lift my foot under the table and let it travel up the inside of his leg. His scowled brows relax, and his attention returns to me. "Alex," he husks.

"What is it, Mr. Walker?"

With an unrelenting stare, he whispers, "You better watch it, Alex.”

"Or what? Are you going to spank me?" The tip of my tongue darts out while my heel travels further up his thigh. "I won't mind… I'm soaking wet, Cole."

Something primal flashes in his blue depths. "Get up. We're leaving." he growls while rising from his seat. The moment I stand up, he takes hold of my hand and rushes us towards the exit. Stopping at the counter, he apologizes to Tina for leaving, but mentions that he has to go to take care of an important issue. Tina nods as her eyes drift between the two of us. The moment we step outside, Cole pinches my ass hard and I yelp. The sound gets lost in the city's noise, but his next message wreaks havoc in my core.

"When we're home, you'remine."

ALISHA

This is torture.I'm shifting in my seat as Cole drives us through the city. We’re quiet, but the sexual energy between us intensifies when his eyes meet mine. I press my thighs together.There will be a wet spot on this black leather seat when I step out.The way his hands cling around the steering wheel and his tight jawline tell me he’s having a hard time too.

I let out a sigh of relief the moment we're in the parking lot of our apartment building.Finally.

"Wait here." He steps out and opens my door. After stepping out, he takes my hand and brings it to his lips. Flares of heat flush my face as his mouth touches the inside of my wrist.Damn, never knew this could be an erogenous zone.

Without a word, he intertwines our fingers and starts walking at a fast pace.

"Cole, I'm wearing heels. If you don't want me to fall flat on my face, you need to slow down."

Once inside the elevator, we stand behind another couple. Tingles rush through my arm and spreads through my entire body as his thumb starts to draw slow circles in the palm of my hand.

I lift my foot and rub it slowly up and down his ankle and calf. The circles stop, and the grip on my hand tightens. A rush of anticipation courses through me as the elevator stops and the couple leaves. The second the doors close, the frenzy starts. Our mouths find each other, and my hands delve into his thick blond locks to pull him in closer. He presses my back against the gold-painted wall. Our make out session is a roller coaster ride filled with loops.I could kiss this man's lips all day long.The way his beard prickles my skin ignites an intense craving to sense it on the rest of my body. His mouth travels to my ear, and when he bites my earlobe, a longing filled moan echoes through the confined space. Our heads twist sideways when someone coughs.

An older man in an expensive looking suit stands in the hallway, watching us.I didn't even notice we stopped.

"I'll get the next one; you two enjoy each other," he says with a naughty grin.

"We will," Cole answers with a shameless smirk as the doors close. His hands slide to my backside, and his eyes turn a shade darker. "Are you not wearing panties?"

I send him a seductive grin, and as soon as the elevator doors open on his floor, I push him away and move past him. Midway down the hall, I turn and flash him a promiscuous smile while roaming my hand over the edge of my dress. "Thought you might like the easy access, Mr. Walker." A sense of empowerment flows through me when I catch his deep grunt, but after I see him storming my way, I try to run. Though within three steps, he catches up, lifts me off the ground, and carries me bridal style towards his apartment. I giggle and swing my arms around his neck.

"You’re one naughty woman, Alex."

I tickle the hair on the back of his neck. "I thought you knew by now that I enjoy being naughty, Mr. Walker. So what are you going to do about it?"
