She liked how what was happening between us made her feel. That made me think I was doing something right.

“In what way?”

“In what way do I feel good?” she countered.

I nodded.

Her blue eyes were shining as she licked her lips and reached up to fidget with a strand of her hair. “You make me feel beautiful,” she said softly.

I cocked an eyebrow. It wasn’t that I thought she was lying, but I couldn’t understand how she hadn’t already been made to feel that way. “But you are beautiful,” I told her.

She smiled shyly, the compliment clearly making her feel bashful. “I didn’t necessarily mean you made me feel beautiful in the physical sense,” she started, offering some clarification. “I meant that you have brought this beauty to my life that I’ve never experienced before. I’m not sure I know how to explain it.”

I reached out, curled my hand around hers, and gave her a squeeze. “You explained it perfectly, sweetness.”

“It’s that, too.”

“What?

She dropped her eyes to where our hands were connected, and I could have sworn I saw heat flash in them. When she lifted her gaze to mine, I saw the desire swirling. “I like how it feels when you touch me or hold me.”

My thumb stroked over the skin on her hand. Unable to steer the conversation anywhere other than where she was leading it, I asked, “How does it make you feel when I kiss you?”

A flush crept over her skin. “The best I’ve ever felt in my whole life.”

Okay.

Yep.

I had no problem going where this conversation was going.

“You want to know how I feel, Hanna?”

She nodded slowly to confirm that she did.

“I really like the way you look in your dress tonight,” I started. “I like it so much, I really want this dinner to go well, so that I can take you home and kiss you in a lot of other places.”

Her lips parted, goosebumps formed on her skin, and a shiver ran down her spine. Oh, yeah. This conversation was going exactly where I wanted it to go.

Unfortunately, before Hanna had the chance to recover and respond to me, our server returned with our drinks and salads, ruining the moment.

I had to let Hanna’s hand go, so she could eat, but I didn’t like it at all. Knowing she enjoyed having me touch her, I wanted to keep my hands on her.

So, I took a chance, slipped my hand beneath the table, and placed it on her exposed thigh. It took no time at all for me to draw the conclusion that I’d made the right decision. Because even though she’d been so reserved with me up until that point, Hanna showed me a different side to her.

She separated her thighs slightly, allowing my fingers to curl around not just the top but also the inner part of her thigh. And when I did, I couldn’t miss the low moan that escaped from the back of her throat.

“You know what I’m curious about, Hanna?” I asked, leaning in toward her.

“What?” she returned, a slight tremble in her voice.

Bringing my mouth to her ear, I whispered, “If me kissing you makes you feel the best you ever have in your whole life, I’m wondering how you’ll feel when I sink my cock between these gorgeous fucking legs.”

“Leo,” she whispered, her voice coming out like a plea.

I smiled against her cheek, pressed a kiss there, and urged, “Eat up, sweetness. You’re going to need your energy tonight.”

At that command, Hanna pressed her thighs together. Only now, my hand was trapped between them.
