Then his gaze lands on me.
And he jerks back slightly in his seat as surprise pulses across his face.
His stunned gaze quickly flicks up and down my body.
I give him a sly smile, and wait for him to start glancing over his shoulder in worry.
He doesn’t.
Instead, he quickly wipes the astonished expression from his features and simply returns his attention to his food while casually saying, “Morning.”
“Morning,” I reply as I walk up to the table.
“Shouldn’t you get dressed?”
“I am dressed.”
He looks up from his food again and casts a deliberate glance up and down my body while raising an eyebrow. “You’re going to school like that?”
I wait for heat to flood his cheeks when he draws his gaze over my half-naked body. But it doesn’t. The infuriating bastard doesn’t look affected at all. After that first moment of surprise, he is acting as if he’s looking at a mediocre landscape painting and not my hot fucking body in lace lingerie.
Annoyance ripples through me.
But I make sure to keep the irritation off my face as I arch an eyebrow at him. “Last I checked, this was my kitchen. Not uni. And I can dress however I like in my own home.”
Jace watches me in silence for a few seconds. Then he shrugs. “Alright.”
And then he goes back to eating.
Curling my fingers into a fist, I fume in silence as I glare at the frustrating man at my kitchen table.
After blowing out a discreet sigh of exasperation, I give my body a short shake to get rid of the annoyance. I’m far from done. Let’s see him ignore me when I turn up the heat.
I walk over to where I put my bag last night and move it over to the edge of the couch, which is straight in Jace’s line of sight. Then I stroll over to the bookshelves where I keep my course books and pull out a few. After sauntering back to my bag, I position myself with my back to Jace and drape my hair over my shoulder.
Then I slowly bend over and start putting the books into my bag.
The position puts my ass on full display in those tiny lace panties. And when I’m bent over in that suggestive pose, there’s no way that Jace isn’t blushing. Or glancing nervously around the room as if he’s worried that my father will suddenly materialize and kill him for looking at me.
While sliding the final book into my bag, I angle my head and discreetly glance back towards the table.
Jace is holding his panini now, biting into it with a completely unaffected expression on his face.
I grind my teeth.
God damn it. What do I have to do to get a reaction out of this guy?
Shoving my bag shut again, I straighten and flick my hair back behind my shoulder before turning around. Jace chews his bite of panini, watching me with a casual look on his face.
Maybe he needs it a bit more up close and personal.
With a sly smile on my lips, I walk back to the kitchen table until I’m standing on the other side of it, right opposite Jace. Holding his gaze, I lean forward over the table and reach for his plate of fruit. If I was any closer, my tits would be in his fucking face. He has to react now.
But Jace just keeps his eyes on my face, not once letting his gaze slip down to my cleavage.
I curse him in my mind.
Then I pick up a strawberry from his plate.
