CHAPTER 20



“I’m worried that because we’re likely going home tomorrow, that even though this wasn’t technically a one night stand, that you don’t want to see me again.”

Xander blinked at Nef’s bluntness. Damn. He liked that she was so straightforward. No games — unless it was in the bedroom.

Nef kept speaking. “I’m mostly worried because I know that I really want to keep seeing you. I know we said we’d take it slow, but I want a label. I don’t casually see people. I won’t push you for all or nothing, but I can’t make an exception for you just because you’re not comfortable committing.”

“Ouch,” Xander pressed a hand to his chest in mock betrayal.

Nef’s lips were red from where she was nibbling at them nervously. Combined with the way she clutched the sheets around her, how his shirt was riding up her naked thighs, and how she simultaneously stared him down with impressive regal-ness, Xander was having trouble deciding if he wanted to laugh, respond, or kiss her first.

Before he could do anything, Nef playfully whacked him with a pillow. How did she even move that fast?

“You have to say something, damnit! I’m baring my soul here.” Nef was grinning, but Xander could see the tension in her eyes.

“Nef.” Xander panted, kissed her again. He didn’t think there were words to fully express how much he wanted to see her again. “Nef, if I don’t see you again, touch you again, after tonight, I think I’ll die of starvation.”

He swallowed her thrilled gasp with another kiss, desperation filling his veins. He didn’t care how they would make it work. He didn’t care if he could only grab a few stolen moments in between his trips. He wanted to try. He wanted to keep this woman who made him feel lighter.

Nef had the sense to care, though. Pulling out of his reach, shirt halfway up her stomach and hair sexily mussed, she put a hand on his chest to stop him from following her to the edge of the bed.

“Wait,” she gasped out. Pushing her curls out of her eyes, she wriggled back into a cross legged position. “I want to make sure this works — for both of us. I have questions.”

Xander scowled. “Questions can wait, Nef. Your pussy can’t. Let me taste you. Now.”

Nef made a low noise in her throat, pressing her lips together. “How about this: questions first, then I’m yours all night.”

Xander raised an eyebrow. God, he was aching for her. Only his queen would make such demands when he could be on his knees for her by now. His queen. Nef would be his. A warm, bubbly feeling fizzed in his stomach. He wanted that. To call her his. Thoughts of
