CHAPTER NINETEEN
Jenna
âNothing,â I say, at last, sitting back with a sigh. âI suppose thereâs no point in watching any longer.â
âNo, I wouldnât say so,â Hunter agrees, rubbing his mouth with a frown. âThatâs a shame. And I keep hitting failures here, so I might as well leave the program running on its own for a while and see if it can get somewhere.â
âWhat should we do in the meantime, then?â I ask. My big task is done, so Iâm ready to do whatever else is needed to help.
âI can think of something,â Hunter says, with a wolfish smile curving his lips, and my heart skips a beat.
âNow?â I ask, my voice dropping to barely more than a whisper.
âIf you still want to,â he says, tilting his head at me. He must have misinterpreted my hesitation as unwillingness to go through with it. Then he shakes his head quickly.
âNo, weâre supposed to wait until tonight. Forget I said anything. Iâm sorry.â
Actually, I just needed to process the huge wave of excitement that just came over me.
Iâm not supposed to trust him right now. I try to remind myself that I think he lied to me earlier. Something is going on here, something I donât understand.
But do I need to understand?
Do I need to get to the truth right now? Or is it more important that I follow my feelings?
Because my feelings still really, really want me to go to bed with him.
And I donât want to miss this chance for it to be special like he said â my first time.
I shoot up from my seat. âIâm ready,â I declare, making him laugh out loud.
He stands as well, leaning forward and closing the lid of his laptop as he moves toward me. He cups my face in his hands over the top of his desk and kisses me so deeply that it makes my head spin.
By the time Iâve blinked and come back to myself, Hunter has walked around the desk and right up close to me just to take me in his hands in that same way again.
He kisses me until my knees are weak until I have to clutch at the front of his suit jacket to hold myself upright. The room spins around me like in those romance movies where the camera whirls around and around the kissing couple.
âAre you sure?â he asks, his voice little more than a breath. âItâs okay to change your mind, at any time. I want you so badly, Jenna, but Iâll wait if you arenât ready.â
âIâm ready,â I assure him in the same breathy tone because the sound of him telling me he wants me like that would have brought me to my knees if his arm hadnât snaked around my waist to hold me up.
Thereâs no room for doubt anymore. There is only desire.
He kisses me deeply again then. His tongue intertwines with mine and then wrestling, becoming hungrier and more forceful, making me see stars against my closed eyelids.
His mouth
