Mick woke up with her in his arms, naked, soft, warm. She felt so good that he never wanted to leave—but that thought forced him to glance around the room until he found a digital clock on a bedside table. Okay, good—he’d only been here about an hour, so he could stay awhile longer. He refocused on the woman in his embrace.

He hadn’t woken up like this often—he usually ended up with women who…didn’t inspire him to sleep over. He liked his sex quick and easy—like he wished he could have kept it with Jenny. But his secrets and the need for her trust had complicated things from the start.

Of course, it wasn’t the first time sex had turned into something more. He’d dated plenty of women for a month or two, even had a couple who’d lasted longer and who he’d actually thought of as his “girlfriend.” But then, on both occasions, the woman in question had told him she loved him. And he hadn’t wanted to hear that, hadn’t felt the same way—he didn’t think he’d ever been in love and had long since decided that his screwed-up upbringing had probably made it so he just wasn’t cut out for that. So he’d ended the relationships and moved on.

As for Jenny, what they shared was…indefinable to him. She wasn’t his girlfriend. But she wasn’t just a quick lay, either. Although he hated the moments when words slipped out that might let her know that. Wherever I am and whatever I’m doing, I’m wanting more of you? He let out a sigh. Damn it, what had he been thinking?

He wasn’t stupid—he understood how he felt for her. He felt…more needful of her than he should because she was the bright light in a world of darkness right now. He got that.

But he didn’t want to let it show, because it would…make her think this was something it wasn’t. By the end of the summer he’d be gone, long gone, and he never planned to look back. He didn’t want Jenny to get hurt by that—because she’d been nothing but good to him, better than most people in his life had been, especially people from Destiny. So you have to cool it, damn it, on saying shit like that. You have to keep this exactly what you told her it was: hot sex.

“Hey,” she whispered then, and he looked down to see her smiling sweetly up at him.

Despite his last thought, he smiled back. “Hey, pussycat.”

She bit her lip, looking like a woman who had a secret she was about to tell. “That was…the best sex I’ve ever had.”

He couldn’t lie. “Me, too.” Aw shit—what happened to not telling her stuff like that? She was just too open, too earnest, and ever since she’d found out about Wayne, he’d found her too easy to talk to.

She let her hand drift from his chest over to his arm, running her fingertips across his tattoo. “So about this—why’d you get it?”

She’d already asked him about this once.
