Chapter Twenty-Six

Despite her exhaustion, Aida couldn’t fall asleep, and it had absolutely everything to do with the man lying beside her. They didn’t touch, but his warmth was so close he could almost be pressed against her. Her heart was like a drum in her chest as it pounded out a rock tempo against her ribs.

She kept staring at the wall, but she yearned to roll over, rest her hands on his chest, and lift her mouth to his. Thinking about it made her grind her teeth as she dug her fingers into her palm to keep from sliding her hand between her legs. She couldn’t remember the last time she masturbated; it had been a while, and she was desperate for some relief from this constant tension.

She’d never been with a man before, and she’d never wanted one as badly as Julian. When he shifted on the bed, she almost screamed and bolted out of it like she was the rabbit racing before the greyhounds.

Would he pounce if she tried to run? God, she hoped so.

Julian rolled over to stare at Aida’s back as she lay facing the wall with her hands beneath her cheek. Her black hair spilled around her shoulders and the T-shirt she put on before crawling into bed. He restrained himself from settling his palm against the slender curve of her hip as the crisp scent of her shampoo filled his nostrils. Beneath that, he also detected the alluring aroma of her growing desire.

If he drew her into his arms, she’d melt into them, but after everything she’d been through tonight, he wouldn’t push her. So instead, he savored the knowledge she was safe while enjoying the exquisite torture of her nearness.

Aida didn’t think she’d ever fall asleep, but she must have because she woke sometime later. She blinked as she tried to figure out why her bed was so hard. And then she recalled the events of the night and inviting Julian to sleep in her room.

Sometime during her nap, she’d draped herself across his chest. The solid wall of muscle beneath her rose with his breaths while the rigid evidence of his arousal poked her in the thigh. One of his hands rested on the small of her back while the other was propped behind his head. She could feel his eyes on her.

Her mouth watered as her heart thundered in her chest, but she didn’t dare move. If she moved, she might start rubbing herself all over him like a cat. According to the red numbers of the clock on her nightstand, she had a couple of hours before she had to return to the gallery, but she’d never fall asleep again now.

She didn’t realize her fingers were stroking his chest until she felt the bristly hairs beneath her. Forcing her fingers to still, she flattened her palm against his flesh as he turned his head to nuzzle her temple.

His warm breath against her ear caused an ache to spread between her legs.
