“Oui, brother,” he said, knowing he was dead serious.
“Nothing wrong with taking it slow with boundaries.”
“Absolutely,” Eveque said. “I insisted on the same with me and Beth.”
“You did?”
“I did. No sex till she knew without a doubt what she wanted. Not what I wanted. This angel would give her life if she thought it pleased me. It’s her kindness disease and I’m still training her to discover her own pleasures outside of mine.”
Ethan was at the edge of his seat now, realizing Cat did that very thing earlier but not for the same reason. She wanted to know if he wanted her. Pretty sure Belle Eveque at least knew that much about Eveque’s feelings for her. Maybe he could bend the rules just enough to let her know he wanted her and it had nothing to do with obligations and sexless agreements.
Maybe he should just tell Eveque.
“Ah, speaking of the angel. Call me later, oui?”
“Oui.”
He hung up and found Cat’s number, his thumb hovering over it. Why was he calling? To check on her. He pressed the button and put the phone to his ear.
“Ethan?”
Her eager greeting spoke to his cock, and he suddenly realized her words had nothing else to speak to in him.
I know what it’s like to need to kill things. But it’s also messy and can deaden things you may need to feel later.
“Hey,” he said, shoving everything but this moment off the nearest proverbial cliff. “You doing okay?”
“Other than being bored out of my mind, yes.”
“Big G hasn’t kept you company?” he asked, digging a little.
“He has. As much as he’s allowed,” she added, light chiding in her tone.
“You’ve been prying?” he chided lightly back with a smile.
“A tiny bit but only things that I think are important to know.”
He shrugged. “You can ask me anything.”
“Well, f—”
“But not on the phone,” he chuckled.
She let out a breath. “Fine. What time is this awesome later date, anyway?”
Later date.
“I’ll be home in maybe less than two hours. I’ll cook for you.”
“Oh good,” she said cooly. “I’ll ask questions while you do.”
“Fun,” he said, positive he’d enjoy watching her dig with nosy enthusiasm into his personal life. “I’ll need to ask you questions too.”
“Well, I’m an open book,” she assured. “Guess I might take Big G up on his lavender bath to burn time.”
Oh fuck. “You should.”
“I will.”
