Chapter 21
Gaige
The feisty woman that slapped me Friday afternoon was not the same woman that walked out of my office earlier today, and I spent the better part of an hour sitting at my desk wondering if I fucked things up too bad. But as I walk into Paragon, I realize I shouldnât have bothered with worry.
She couldnât resist being here, and I can tell from the flush in her cheeks in the reflective wall décor that she has already had more than one glass of white wine as she sits at a table, dining alone. She listened intently while I made reservations, stewing all the while thinking I was making them for me and another woman. As if Iâd want to spend a single second with anyone but her. Iâll worry about that little fact at a later date.
Her flawless back is facing me, her spine open to the cool air of the restaurant in that very same devilish dress she was wearing on the night that we met. Then, I anticipated that sheâd be trouble. Tonight, I know it for a fucking fact, and my cock makes himself known in anticipation, pulsing twice with eagerness that makes me wonder if the planned meal is even worth the bother.
She startles when I step up behind her, not wasting a single second before pressing my lips to her throat.
âYouâre at the wrong table, Leighton.â I run my fingers down her arm, clasping her hand in mine. âThis way.â
Confusion draws her brows in, but it doesnât stop her from standing and letting me guide her across the room to the more private table I reserved.
âWhatâs going on?â she asks as I pull out her chair and help her into her seat.
Unable to resist, I press my lips to her skin once more before taking my own seat across from her.
âDo you really think the reservation I made earlier was for anyone but you?â
Her eyes narrow, but they also sparkle with relief. âYouâre such an asshole.â
âI think we already established that. Have you already eaten?â I tease, referring to last week when she was more than halfway through her meal when I arrived. âOr will we be able to do that together this time?â
She grins as she picks up her menu.
âA drink, sir?â the waiter asks as he steps up to the table.
âSparkling water, please.â
âMore wine, maâam?â
âWater for her as well,â I interrupt, gaining a look of disgust from her. âI want you sober.â
âI want wine.â
The waiter, ever professional in this establishment, takes a half-step back. His eyes are focused elsewhere, but Iâm no fool. I know the man will be able to hear every word from my lips. The deal is, I donât give a shit.
âYouâre riding my cock sober tonight.â
âI may not beââ Her eyes dart to the waiter, but I pinch her chin delicately, telling her I own her attention. âI may not be riding your cock at all.â
I smile at her, my thumb tracing her bottom lip before dipping it in her mouth.
