Chapter Sixteen
Liam’s pupils dilated to twice their size as he grabbed my hand and led the way out of the restaurant. My stomach was flipping in circles with anticipation and trepidation, but the former won over my senses. My heart was thudding against my chest so hard I was afraid it would break free. I took a few calming breaths, telling myself that this was just sex, nothing more. I couldn’t go falling in love with this man, I wouldn’t survive it. Besides I know Liam is the King of arrogance and greed all the while hiding behind the mask of kindness and virtue. This was my decision, my need and if I wanted to fuck my way around the office then I could. I won’t but I could.
My fingers betrayed my show of confidence by trembling with the key card to my door, before Liam reached out and grabbed it from me. In one smooth glide the door swung open, revealing a turned down room, lit by the huge bed side lamps. On wobbly knees I walked into the center of the room, coming to a stop on the plush grey rug at the foot of the bed. The soft click of the door closing had me turning around. I know deep down that this man is dangerous for my soul, and how awkward things could get after this, but I feel better knowing that I’ve made him work for it. However small that work might have been, he’s successfully changed my views of him, and right now I’d like to see him without the confines of his suit. Liam steps forward on one long leg, stalking towards me like I was his prey, his baby blues dancing in the dimly lit bulbs making the hairs on my arms and neck stand straight. Wetness pools between my legs, as I step towards him, meeting him in the middle of the room. Standing a foot away from me he stares at me intently, his eyes narrowing with silent contemplation. My lips part as my breathing increases and I hesitantly take a step towards him. And then another, before we’re almost touching. Tilting his head, he stares down at me, his hair falling slightly from its otherwise perfect style onto his head. I slowly reach my hand up and with just my fingertips I brush it back. My eyes flick from his now dark irises, to his slightly parted lips and back again. We’re close enough that our breath mingles into one and my breasts are teasingly close to brushing his chest.
“Kiss me” his deep voice cuts through the silence as I swallow past the nervous lump in my throat. I watch him for a long second as the flurries of wings in my stomach increases. I never move my eyes away from his, and his hands stay firmly in his pockets as I come up on my tip toes and brace myself on his lapels. I hold my breath as I tilt my head to the side, and he copies me only in the other direction.
