I smiled at him as I opened my door and stepped out of the car. “You’re taking your life in your hands delaying my dinner!” I teased.
He locked the doors and jogged around to my side, his handsome face creased into a wide smile. He held up his hands to show me what he had. “I bought you a giant cookie and a chocolate milk to tide you over. You can eat it while we wait for our turn.”
“Ah,” I nodded approvingly. “You’re a good man, Charlie Brown.”
I reached for the paper bag, and he pulled it up out of my reach, his eyes twinkling. “You didn’t think I’d give it to you for nothing, did you?”
I crossed my arms and frowned, taking in his smug expression. Somebody needed taken down a peg or two.
I took a tiny step back, then dragged my eyes slowly up his body, lingering on his muscular thighs, giving a little sigh at his groin, parting my lips when I reached his chest, I licked my bottom lip as my eyes followed the lines of his wide shoulders. Tipping my head back, I allowed my eyes to go half mast as I stared up into his gorgeous face.
He wasn’t laughing anymore. He held the bag limply in his lowered hand, his cheekbones a dusky pink, jaw clenched, dark eyes glittering with anticipation.
Taking a tiny step towards him, I slowly lifted my right hand and placed it over his heart. I felt his chest expand under my palm and I spread my fingers over his pectoral and squeezed the hard muscle.
He stood unmoving, as if afraid to break the spell.
Tilting my head to the side, I held his gaze before tilting my chin up and offering him my mouth.
He dipped his dark head towards me slowly, his gaze skittering between my eyes and my mouth.
When he was an inch away from my mouth, I spun away and snatched the bag out of his hand. Lifting it above my head I danced away from him. “I got it, I got it!” I yelled, howling with laughter.
For a moment he looked shocked, then he smiled.
It wasn’t a comforting smile, and my breath caught in my throat. He dipped his chin and looked at me from beneath his dark brow.
Still, I could not resist taunting him. I waggled the bag in front of my body, giving him my most evil smile. “I got it, I got it…”
He stood back on his heels and nodded affably.
I tipped my chin down and dropped my eyes, smiling smugly. Ruby for the win. I uncurled the top of the bag to peek in, and he made his move.
Two long strides brought us chest to chest. He wrapped one arm around my waist, and his other hand tangled in the back of my hair, my hands holding my cookie bag trapped between us.
“My cookie!” I exclaimed.
He grinned down at me, his eyes hot, his hold unrelenting, and quickly backed me up against the car, pressing the length of his long, heavy body against mine. He dipped his head and rubbed his beard against the side of my face. His scent, his warmth, his touch, my need. He drew back slightly and met my eyes, his mouth firm.
I stared into his eyes, caught in a bubble outside of time where nothing existed save the invisible thread that linked his heart to mine.
“My cookie,” I whispered.
He pressed his hips closer, and I felt him harden against my stomach. My eyelids fluttered shut. I fought the almost irresistible urge to spread my thighs around his slim hips. He tightened his grip on my hair and my head fell back in his hand. Desire pooled in my womb, and I barely held back my moan.
“What are you going to give me for it?”
“What do you want?” I asked, my voice raspy.
“Everything,” he muttered, then dragged me up, bringing my mouth within a breath of his.
He held me still for a long moment, my lips just barely touching his. I’d never wanted anything as desperately as I wanted his mouth on mine. His hand in my hair held me immobile, and my helplessness fed my need. A low, needy moan broke from my throat.
“Yes, baby,” he whispered harshly, his fingers clenching harder in my hair. “Moan for me. Want me the way I want you. Need me the way I need you. Open for me the way I’ve opened for you.” He licked my mouth.
I opened.
With his mouth barely touching mine, he ran his tongue along the inside of my bottom lip. He drew back and nipped it sharply with his teeth, before pulling it gently into his mouth to soothe the sting.
