Chapter Eighteen

Cas knew he should have called first but he’d finally worked up the balls to come talk to Jo. He needed to just be honest with her, tell her that he was a dragon shifter.

Then he would see where they stood, and if she rejected him. If she did, at least he’d know for certain and could stop obsessing.

The door swung open a few seconds later. Jo’s auburn hair was damp around her shoulders and she had on that silky robe again. The one where he could see the outline of her nipples. He lost the ability to think for a moment. Why had he come here again?

Mate, his dragon purred.

“Cas,” she said, pleasure in her voice as she stepped back to let him in.

He stepped inside with her and glanced around, not hearing anyone. “Where is everyone?”

She blinked in surprise. “You can tell no one’s here?”

Normally he didn’t point out his extrasensory abilities but he nodded. “Yeah, but I think even a human could notice. It’s too quiet and your sisters are anything but.”

She snickered softly and locked the door behind them. “My sisters left for work early. Like really early. I think they were meeting friends for coffee first. And Nana is at one of our neighbors until this afternoon. It’s quilting day. They’re all making quilts for one of the intake centers to give to kids being placed in new homes.”

Right, it was Friday morning.

So…they were alone. The first time he could remember being alone with her in months. His gaze fell to her full lower lip. She’d clearly just gotten out of the shower. She smelled sweet and… The faintest hint of arousal rolled off her.

“Jo,” he murmured her name, the sound more a groan than anything. He couldn’t stop himself. That scent, it was overpowering, making him light-headed.

She stepped forward slightly, her chest rising and falling a bit more sharply. Oh. That was definite arousal.

But he’d come here to talk. Talk.

Instead of talking about what he’d originally come here to say, he rasped out, “Everyone’s gone for hours?”

“All day.”

“What time do you have to be at work?” he growled, still staring at her mouth.

“Not for a few hours yet.” Her own voice was all raspy and breathy and that was when he realized she was staring at his mouth too. That sweet scent was even stronger…

He wasn’t quite sure how it happened, but in the next moment he had her pinned up against the closed front door, his mouth crushed to hers.

She plastered her body to his, wrapping her legs around him, digging her fingernails into his back as he rolled his erection against her. Their mouths clashed in a frenzy, Jo clearly as consumed with need as him.

Now the scent of her arousal was overwhelming, overpowering all sense or thought. He knew he’d come here for a reason—

None of that mattered anymore.

The only thing that mattered was tasting between her legs, to see exactly how turned on she was. He could scent it, but he needed more.
