“Because I wanted to, because I’m wildly attracted to you, and I wanted to see if you would kiss me back.”
“So it didn’t have anything to do with Gideon?”
“Ah, I see,” I murmur. “You think I only kissed you to get to him?”
“You still haven’t answered that.”
“No, I didn’t. Perhaps when I first learned about you and saw you here with him, taking you from him was something I wanted to do, I won’t lie about that. But when you slapped me, I was smitten.” Smirking at her, she can’t hold back the smile.
“Like a bit of pain, do you?”
“Oh, you have no fucking idea,” I murmur darkly, causing her to blush again. “But know this: my cock doesn’t lie. Seeing you look at me the way you did kickstarted a desire that is overtaking my mind right now. I need to know something back. Did you kiss me to force Gideon into making a decision about you and him?”
“What?” she splutters. “No! No, I wouldn’t do that. I don’t like games.”
This is the second time she’s mentioned this, so my conclusion is drawn. She’s been hurt by shady fuckers in the past, and she is wary.
While I love a good play, I won’t put her through the wringer. She deserves better than that.
“So why did you then?”
“Because you kissed me.”
“Is that the only reason?” I’m pressing her despite her exclamation, she is toying with me now. She doesn’t mean to, but she hasn’t given me the answer I require.
She looks down and shakes her head. “No.”
“Then why?” Stepping closer, I reach out and lift her chin up so her gaze can meet mine. It is heated and full of desire, which mirrors my own. It makes my heart thump.
“I wanted to.”
“Do you find me attractive, Isla?”
“Yes.”
“Do you want to know what my cock feels like sliding into your pussy?”
She gulps and takes a step back.
Noted.
She won’t jump into bed with me just because I ask nicely, nor because she has had her hand wrapped around my cock.
“Gideon,” she says.
“Dante,” I mutter with narrowed eyes.
She giggles. “No, I mean, he and I… we are starting something. I don’t know where it will lead, but I am attracted to you, Dante. I’m unsure what to do because I don’t know you. You burst in here not that long ago, looking for a fight, and now you’re being all charming and seductive. I’m not sure where I stand with you, nor do I know what your intentions are with Gideon.”
“I won’t hurt him if you ask me not to.”
“Don’t hurt him.”
Smiling slowly, I nod. “I won’t. I don’t want to do anything to upset you. We can take this at your pace, Isla, but I’m intrigued, and I want to pursue this.”
“I told Gideon we kissed,” she blurts out.
Raising an eyebrow, I’m surprised by her bluntness. “Did you? And what did he say?”
