CHAPTER SIX

I’D CHOSEN MY attire specially today because I’d needed the confidence boost; and because I’d accepted that the way I’d been handling things the past two weeks needed to change.

And perhaps—okay, extremely possibly—I’d also chosen my underwear because, deep down in a place I didn’t want to examine too closely, I’d hoped this would happen.

Between frenzied kisses and the need to explore every inch of his sleekly muscled body, I wasn’t certain which one of us undid my silk blouse. But I was certain which one stopped in their tracks, mouth hanging open at the sight of the sea-green lace bra I wore beneath it.

I hid a pleased smile as Jasper growled beneath his breath, his eyes rapt on my chest.

My lingerie was the indecently expensive kind, concocted of gossamer-thin scraps of lace, strings and silk, bought on a slightly tipsy whim while late-night online shopping, then shoved deep into the underwear drawer with much chagrin after the hangover wore off and the package arrived on my doorstep.

But in this moment, I patted myself on the back as Jasper’s hands hovered reverently over my breasts, as if he wasn’t sure whether to worship me or devour me.

‘Jesus Christ, Wren. You’re exquisite,’ he breathed, his eyes darting from my chest to my face and back again.

‘Not too exquisite to touch, I hope?’

He started to reach for me, then paused. ‘Tell me you weren’t wearing this underneath that damned trench coat when you came into my building two weeks ago?’

‘Why would I want to stop torturing you by satisfying your curiosity?’

He raised an eyebrow, even while his frantic gaze dropped to latch onto my peaking nipples. ‘Because we just agreed to call a truce?’

Trailing my finger down over the firm, tanned skin covering his clavicle, I decided to give a little. ‘I wasn’t wearing this exact same set, no. Now, are you going to unwrap me or make me wait?’ I demanded softly.

With effortless ease, he divested me of my blouse. It landed on the floor, but I didn’t care. Because my busy fingers had done some unwrapping of their own, exposing the most perfect set of abs I’d seen outside a magazine. I touched his skin, almost moaned at how warm and firm and utterly delicious he was. About to put my mouth where my hands had been, I whimpered in protest as Jasper pushed me back firmly.

Reading his intent, I relaxed, reclining on the table as he stepped back, took me in, then groaned. ‘I’ll never be able to take a meeting in this room without picturing you like this.’

‘You’ll get through it somehow, I’m sure.’ I arched my back, the cool surface momentarily chilling my skin; making my nipples harder. He saw the reaction and charged forward with another animalistic snarl.

‘I don’t like being the only one without a shirt on, Jasper.’

Cracking a taut smile, he jerked off his jacket and tossed it away. A crook of my finger and he was leaning over me. Strong hands framed my hips, trailed up my ribcage as I attacked his remaining shirt buttons.
