Chapter Eleven

AT his question, Lily shrank back. Stone clamped down the urge to damn the consequences and start pounding her deep. Instead, he gripped her hips, forced himself from one rough breath to the next, and waited.

“Um . . . A few months.”

With that vague tone, he didn’t believe her for an instant. And that pissed him off. “How many is a few?”

She wouldn’t meet his gaze. “I don’t remember exactly.”

More bullshit. She might be sitting above him now, but he didn’t want her forgetting who was on top.

He grabbed her chin and forced her to look at him. “Give me a ballpark. Was it over the summer?”

The idea made his gut grind, his jealousy flare. While he’d been refusing perfectly easy hookups because he couldn’t forget a certain petite pinup girl, had she been “working through her issues” with Axel? Had she been giving the man her pussy?

“No. Axel has been with Mystery all summer.”

Right. Good. Stone dialed back on his homicidal thoughts of the other man. “Spring?”

Lily frowned as if she couldn’t quite remember. She closed her eyes to avoid his gaze. “It was colder, as I recall.”

“Give me the goddamn truth. I don’t know why you’re hiding this from me, but I’m dying to be inside this sweet cunt, making you mine. I don’t want to hurt you by fucking you too hard. Give. Me. An. Answer.”

His growl obviously startled her. Stone didn’t want to scare her but he was at the end of his restraint, damn it. He’d done his level best to be gentle and patient, putting his needs on the back burner, and she gave him lies in return? When all he wanted to do was take her thoroughly, stake his claim, and make her feel so damn good.

“It was just after New Year’s. I was feeling stupidly optimistic and hopeful and . . .” She sighed with defeat, tugging her blouse down.

It wasn’t the first time he’d noticed the gesture.

Making a mental note to pursue that soon, he prompted, “And?”

“And we got through it. Axel . . .” She shook her head. “Let’s not talk about it now. You’ve waited. I want you. I’m sorry. It feels awkward to talk about him when we’re about to . . . you know.”

“Yeah, I know.” But Stone hated that her last experience—hell, pretty much every experience—had been less than sublimely thrilling. He dragged in a deep breath, forcing himself to find some patience. “We’re going to do more than ‘get through’ this.”

Lily nodded, her platinum curls caressing her shoulders. But she looked uncertain, as if she were already preparing herself to be somewhere between disappointed and miserable.

More than anything, Stone wanted to roll on top of her, take charge, show her what it felt like to be well and thoroughly pleasured by a man who didn’t want to be anywhere else or with anyone else. But she wasn’t ready to relinquish that sort of control. If he hadn’t already wanted to slit Canton from throat to testicles, he was certainly itching to now.
