She grinned at him and stroked his cheekbone with her thumb. “Tonight I am, so you’d better play the part of doting boyfriend perfectly, buddy.”
“And if I don’t,” he asked, a smile playing on his perfect lips.
“I’ll tell Nan,” she said.
“Cold, Hedra. She already won’t stop mocking me for making up a girlfriend,” Boone said.
She laughed. “I don’t think she’ll ever let you live this down.”
“Probably not,” Boone said before taking a deep breath. He paused and bent his head, sniffing at her throat. “Christ, you still smell intensely like me. I didn’t realize how hard I marked you in the kitchen the other night. I’m sorry.”
“It’s fine,” she said. “I need to smell like you tonight, anyway, right?”
“Yes,” he said. “Although, I know Camilla will harp on the fact that I don’t smell much like you.”
“Well, we can’t have that, can we?” She grinned at him before tugging his head back and rubbing her face across his throat and cheeks. His stubble made her cheeks tingle pleasantly, and Boone hissed out a breath when she stepped into his arms and pressed the length of her body against his.
His arms slipped around her hips and linked together in the small of her back as she pressed soft kisses along his jawline.
“What do you think?” she murmured. “Will that be enough to make you smell like me?”
“Yes,” he croaked out.
“Good.” She shifted slightly and bit at her lip when she felt Boone’s erection pressing against her hip. “Tell me that’s your gun.”
He made a strangled sounding laugh. “Abena isn’t like most clients who feel better if they see us carrying a weapon. She specifically told me not to bother. She’s a shifter and knows I’m faster and more lethal in my tiger form. Besides, I’m technically not working tonight, remember?”
“So, that’s your cock, then?” Hedra said.
“Just hearing you say cock is making it harder,” he said.
She laughed. “Pervert.”
“Total pervert,” he said. “Give me a minute.”
She stepped back, and he made a low grumble but let her go. They stared at each other for nearly thirty seconds before she said, “That woman who passed us earlier. That was Karena Potter, wasn’t it?”
“I think so.” He glanced around before discreetly adjusting himself through his pants.
“The Karena Potter. Of Potter and the Lion fame,” Hedra said.
“Yes.”
“Holy shit,” she said.
He grinned at her. “Big fan, are you?”
“I loved that show when I was a kid.” She reached out and took his hand. “Do you think your cock can behave long enough for me to make a fool of myself in front of Karena Potter?”
He laughed and linked their fingers together. “Whatever you want, gorgeous.”
CHAPTER 8
Hedra sipped at her wine and tried not to fidget. Her feet were killing her, and her Spanx dug into her stomach. She was ready to be at home in her bare feet, no bra, and a giant bowl of chips.
She smiled at the server as he offered her another hors d’oeuvres piled on a silver tray. “No, thank you.”
He moved on, and she pulled discreetly on the waistband of her Spanx and tried not to stare with her mouth open when one of the biggest action stars in the world walked by her. He was shoving a bacon-wrapped shrimp into his mouth, and Hedra made a face when he grabbed another from a server’s tray and tossed it into his mouth before wiping his hand on the server’s white jacket.
