Chapter Seventeen

Zeke

Just the opposite, he thought.

The more time he spent with her, the more time he wanted to spend with her. And imagining her body splayed out before him, a perfect blank canvas upon which to permanently engrave his mark? It was pushing him to the limits of his self-discipline.

He knew he should grab her and go. But what he wanted to do and what he should do were completely at odds with one another. She was a job. A package. Nothing more.

Except she was.

So caught up was he in his mental battle that he neglected to realize she’d come up behind him. The touch of her delicate hand on his forearm was like a brand, shooting through him with a white-hot fire.

He tensed and held himself in check. Discipline.

“Would it be so bad, spending another day here with me?” she asked softly.

He said nothing. He was a man on the edge. He clenched his jaw and stared straight ahead and thought about the engine specs of the Harley he wanted to get someday.

“I see,” she whispered, disappointment heavy in those two simple words. “I just thought ...”

Whatever she thought, she didn’t share it with him. She sighed and removed her hand, and then began to walk away.

She looked into his eyes, then tugged at his shirt, demanding he lower his torso closer to hers. But he was much bigger and stronger, and he held himself firm. If he went down that rabbit hole, he wouldn’t be coming out anytime soon. Yet he couldn’t move away. He was enjoying the feel of her legs around him, the scent of soft, warm woman drifting up and intoxicating him. Those big, clear eyes gazed at him with a combination of heat and desire that laid waste to his honorable intentions.

Rather than be discouraged, she ramped up her efforts. She shifted her legs upward, wrapped them around his waist, and squeezed, and she used the grip she had on his shirt to lift her butt off the counter and press her lips to his.

His hands instinctively went to support her. The moment his palms filled with the weight of her ass, his tethers snapped. He pulled her closer, taking control of the kiss.

She tasted sweet and tropical, like pineapple and coconut. Smelled like heaven. And she kissed him back as if her life depended on it.

“I’ve been wanting to do that for a while,” she confessed breathlessly, pulling away just enough to speak the words.

“Yeah?” he replied, his voice thick and husky. “What else have you been wanting to do?”
