My husband rounds the corner from the hallway. “I got the hint when you crawled out of bed when I was in the shower, Lawton. I’ll ravish you again tonight.”
I can’t hold in a laugh. “I wasn’t talking to you.”
He adjusts the tie around his neck. “So I can ravish you now?”
I want that.
Men I’ve been with in the past knew what they were doing in bed, but with Daniel, it’s different.
He woke me with his mouth on my thigh this morning. Before I could fully comprehend what was happening, I was in the throes of an intense orgasm courtesy of his skilled tongue.
As I was trying to recover from that, he fucked me slowly from behind. It was the most delicious wake-up call I’ve ever had.
“I have to do some work,” I confess with an exaggerated frown. “Then I’m going to see Arietta.”
His gaze falls to my left hand. “Are you planning on taking that off before you leave?”
I stare at the ring on my finger before I glance at his left hand. “You took off your ring.”
He pats the front of his suit jacket. “It’s safe and sound in my inner pocket.”
I tug off my ring and drop it in the pocket of my robe as I close the distance between us with hurried steps. “I’ll put it in my purse before I leave.”
Daniel smiles at me. “Who do you want to leave you alone? Give me their name. I’ll make sure they never bother you again.”
“It’s fine,” I reassure him as I rest my hands on his shoulders.
“Is it the dancing neighbor?”
Smiling broadly, I shake my head. “He can bother me anytime he wants.”
His left eyebrow perks. “I meant to go borrow a cup of sugar from him. I have to do that today.”
A bark of laughter escapes me. “We have sugar.”
“I know,” he replies with a wink. “I need to get a look at this guy. It’s all about sizing up the competition, Gina.”
Even though his hands have dropped to my waist, and I love the feeling of that, I tug away to head towards my phone.
Once it’s in my palm, I scroll through my photo app, cringing at how many selfies I’ve taken in the past week to sell products for my sponsors.
“You’re not about to show me a cute picture of the two of you, are you?” Daniel chuckles. “Is that what you’re looking for?”
I nod. “That’s exactly what I’m looking for.”
“I don’t need to see that.” He walks toward me. “In my mind, he’s a cheery, gray-haired grandpa who views you as the granddaughter he never had.”
My head snaps up. “What?”
His gaze searches my face. “Did I hit the nail on the head? Is your neighbor that sweet man with the purple silk scarf who sits in the lobby reading every afternoon?”
I smile. “Let me find the picture.”
I sense his gaze on me as I finally spot the picture I’ve been searching for. Before I can turn it to show him, he’s laughing. “His name is Byron, right? It is him.”
I hold up the image I took months ago of my neighbor and me in the lobby. We’re both wearing purple scarves, and our smiles say it all.
“You had me going, Gina.” Daniel trails light kisses over my neck before he playfully bites the bottom of my earlobe. “I was fucking jealous over this guy.”
