CHAPTER TWENTY THREE - HUXLEY

She wants me. That is all I needed to hear before I lost control. I know I should go easy with her. She has just had a major scare, her leg and her head both still healing, but the minute she said that she wanted me, my brain short-circuited. I guess that’s what happens when you finally meet a woman you’re attracted to, inside and out, and she wants you back just as much.

“Huxley!” Lucy laughs as I carry her into my house, her giggle enough to have a smile plastered on my face, which I know is going to be very hard to remove. Moving quickly, I slam the large front door closed with a kick and race straight up the stairs.

“I have struggled staying away from you. I can’t wait any longer,” I tell her, eager to have her back in my bed. It’s the truth; keeping myself in New York just to try to keep distance between us almost killed me. I know that distance is not what we need, despite her brothers’ warnings.

My breathing is still rapid in anticipation, and I lift my hand to gently stroke her cheek, touching her to ensure this is real. God, she looks so fucking beautiful. “…but are you okay if I take these?” I ask her as my hands land on either side of her glasses, and I start to pull them away from her face as she nods.

“I want that. I mean, I want you. I want this,” she says, her words stumbling out together, and I smirk because we are on the same page. I place her glasses on the side table and turn back to her, sinking my hands around her waist and pulling her to me.

“I want you too,” I murmur my confirmation as my lips touch hers. I try to go slow, but I am too worked up. The stress of the past few days, the panic of her being hurt last night, along with the reality that I haven’t so much as kissed a woman in months. The fact that I have thought
