Chapter Six

Gigi’s brain went on the fritz as she tried to process this turn of events. Beau stood in the doorway, his broad shoulders taking up the entire space. His face was inscrutable as he stared down at her.

She took a step back and grabbed hold of the doorjamb to steady herself. “Where’s Tai?”

“Not here.”

Her heart pounded and she tried to keep her voice steady. “Where is he?”

He shrugged. “Don’t know. I told him you and I had some unfinished business to settle, and he agreed with me.”

Anger burned away the shock. “So now you’re not just my conscience, you’re my keeper too? I’m a grown woman and I want to know what the fuss is about. Tonight, I’m going to find out. Wrap up the lecture so I can go find my date.”

“No.”

“No?”

He gave his head a slow shake and his voice dropped to a level that made her insides quiver. “No.”

She looked away in an effort to break the spell he was weaving before she embarrassed herself more than she already had. “Enjoy the rest of your night. I’m done here.”

“The fuck you are,” he growled, then stepped forward, pinning her against the door. His warm, sweet breath fanned her cheek. “When you asked me to be with you, I said no. I told you why it was a bad idea, but I didn’t tell you the rest. I didn’t tell you how flattered I was. Or how much it killed me to say no. I also didn’t tell you how turned-on I was.”

As he gazed down at her, he traced her bottom lip with his thumb and she trembled.

“Since the second we kissed, I haven’t stopped imagining it. The thought of sliding my cock deep inside you, hearing you gasp, watching you come. I can’t think of anything I’ve ever wanted more. I was just trying to do the right thing.”

Her nipples peaked at his provocative words. God, how she wanted all that and more. “So what changed?” she whispered.

“I’ve managed to convince myself that this is the right thing. If you’re set on doing this—having a one-night stand—I want it to be with me.”

“Are you sure you’re not just trying to be nice? I don’t want to be some kind of pity fuck, Beau.”

He took her hand and pressed it over the thick ridge in his jeans. “Does this feel like pity?”

Relief swamped her with such force she was almost lightheaded. She believed him, needed to believe him. She wet her lips. “I was coming in to tell Tai I changed my mind. Because I wanted it to be with you too.” She couldn’t help it, and squeezed him gently. Yum.

He sucked in a breath and pulled her hand away. “Don’t try to spoil my good intentions. We’re going to take it nice and slow.” He grinned and stepped backward, into the room, pulling her along with him. Music played softly in the background and she smiled when she recognized the tune.
