Chapter Eight

The next thing Laurel knew, Sawyer had reached for the bottom of her dress and was yanking it up and over her head, tossing it to the side and leaving her in only that bodysuit.

He paused, slowing things down, his hands on her waist. He was gripping her, but not hard.

Just enough to send shivers through her.

“Dammit, Laurel,” he said, almost sounding strangled.

Then he scooped her into a kiss again, the taste of sugar from the cake lingering in her mouth, mixing with the essence of him.

She swayed into him, just as weak as he always made her.

Yet this was the only way she would allow herself to lose strength when it came to Sawyer. She would give herself up to fun—fun just like this.

But not anything else.

He started to walk her backward, toward her bedroom, but when they didn’t get anywhere—not when the kissing was keeping them so unfocused—he picked her up.

Wrapping her legs around his hips, she wiggled against him.

“I’m not gonna get you anywhere if you’re doing that,” he said.

But she didn’t stop teasing him. Streams of heat were shooting up and through her, and she couldn’t stop if she wanted to.

They made it to her room, though, and when they got to her bed, he gently laid her down, resting one hand on her stomach.

A million brutal beats gathered there, as if drawn to the shape of his hand. She ached more than she ever had for him, and that ache was reaching up, like a split of lightning, tearing her apart and grasping for her heart.

But it never quite got there. She wouldn’t let it.

Still, there was a whole lot else she would let happen.

As Sawyer mapped the lines of her waist, traveling his hands up until he cupped her breasts, she leaned her head back, groaning.

And when he traced the undersides of her breasts through the sheer bodysuit material, she strained against his hands, feeling her nipples tightening.

What made her even more passionate was the thought that he couldn’t see everything about her body yet—the appliqués on the suit were covering her nipples. Same with down below, where there was another game of peekaboo going on with similar floral designs.

“As nice as this lingerie is,” he said, “I want it off.”

“You’ll have to earn the privilege.” Saucy. He brought it out in her.

A sinful grin spread over his mouth. “And how do I earn it?”

He didn’t wait for her to parry, instead slipping his thumbs up, over her nipples, circling them. Need drilled between her legs, and she bit her lip.

He said, “I like the idea of doing this slowly, watching your face, because you know what?” He leaned in close, his words bathing her ear. “I have your number tonight.”

It sounded as if he’d gotten too far into her psyche—as if he knew more about her than anyone ever had. The notion sent her heart into a jolting shock.

No one would ever get to her.

Never again.

But her logic faded as he reached around to the back of the bodysuit, unzipping it.
