Mac could hear the rising desire in her tone, and he was pleased. He wanted her to always feel desire for him. It would finally put them on even footing. “So, you’re in bed. What are you wearing?”
She laughed. “I’m so not answering that.”
“Come on, angel. It’s just me.” Mac held his breath at her answer. Already he could picture her there, all sleepy-eyed and sexy. His body heated instantly.
“Fine, I’m wearing a T-shirt and panties.” Crystal laughed. “This is so weird. You are the most voracious man I know.”
“Only for you.” He heard her shifting around, as if she was attempting to get more comfortable. “Are you hot, Crystal?”
Crystal went silent a moment before saying, “Maybe.”
He forced himself to take this slow. The last thing he wanted was for her to back away from him, just when he was beginning to make some headway with her. “Never hide your sexual desire from me.”
Crystal tsked. “That’s not what I was doing. And you shouldn’t make assumptions.”
“Yeah, but I know you. You’re shy, and this kind of conversation is new for you, isn’t it?”
“You mean this dirty phone call in the middle of the night? Yes, it’s new.” Again she laughed. “You’re outrageous.”
He loved to hear the sound of her laughter; it filled him as nothing else could. “Laugh all you want, but I could just come over there.”
That quickly caused her laughter to die. “No. If you come over, I’ll end up letting you make love to me and I need to work tomorro
w.”
He grinned at that confession. “You mean, you wouldn’t be able to tell me no?”
“You know it’s impossible to deny you. I get around you and I lose myself. It’s like you’re a wizard and you put a spell on me or something.”
“Hey, if I had that sort of power, I’d just use my magic wand and bring you over here.”
She snickered. “Magic wand? Really?”
Mac laughed. Crystal was an ever-changing bundle of emotions, and he loved it. He wondered if she was there alone. “Is Mollie in for the night, too?”
“Yes, we’re both in bed. Did I mention that it’s three in the morning?”
“I’m glad you don’t live there by yourself. Makes me worry less that your friend is there.”
“You worry about me? That’s so sweet.”
Mac groaned. “I’m not sweet. Puppies are sweet.”
She laughed outright, making him crazy. “Sorry.”
She was the only woman who had ever been brazen enough to laugh at him. Tenderness welled up unexpectedly. “Since you’re already in bed, and you’re nearly naked, then I think it would be a pity to waste such an opportunity, don’t you?”
“You stay right where you are, pal.”
“Ah, but I can do plenty from right where I am.” She was so quiet he wasn’t sure what had happened. “Crystal?”
“So, this is a dirty phone call.”
Mac rolled his eyes. “You’re obsessed with the concept, aren’t you?”
“A little, considering this is my first.”
“We should definitely do something about that.” He gave her a few moments to think about that before he let a picture come to his mind. “If I were there, I’d pull you on top of me, let you ride me. I can picture you now. Your head thrown back, your hair all down your back in beautiful waves.”
