MILO

I’m fucking freezing as I wait in the cab of my dad’s old truck for Addy to get off work. The past three nights, she’s allowed me to give her a ride and not complained once about the heater not working. I’ve spent every spare minute tinkering with it, but it’s pointless. Unless I’m willing to put in a new heating system—the truck isn’t worth that much even if I could find the right one—I should get a new truck.

“You’re spoiling me,” Addy says as she opens the door and climbs in.

Dad is probably raising hell from above. He taught me better than to let a woman open her own car door. But I don’t want Addy getting the wrong idea. Or at least that’s the bullshit excuse I’ve been clinging to.

“Having a functional heater would be spoiling you.”

“I don’t have to deal with the wind.” Her appreciative smile borders on flirtatious. “But I wouldn’t turn down some body heat.”

“Addy,” I say in warning, even as she scoots across the cab. Her thigh brushes against mine, causing my dick to twitch to life. I had hoped the frigid cold would be enough to keep the fucker at bay. Apparently not.

“Milo,” she says, her tone mocking mine.

“We can’t—”

“No, we shouldn’t.” Her hand slides onto my thigh, her thumb dangerously close to discovering exactly the effect she’s having on me. “There’s a difference.”

“Addy, we talked about this.”

“Did we?” Her body turns until one leg is folded across the seat, her shin pressed against me. Every night that I’ve driven her back to her apartment, we’ve been slowly getting to know each other. But that’s not it. The flirting has heightened. The teasing. The inappropriate jokes about prongs getting wedged into outlets that actually make her laugh. The sexual tension between us is strong enough to make me need a cold shower afterward. Which is saying something, considering how fucking miserable this truck cab is without heat.

“Addy—”

“I love that you call me that,” she says, lifting to her knees. Because I’ve been too slow, my truck is still parked in the alley behind the bakery. We’re cloaked in darkness as she straddles my lap. “No one else does.”

“Really?” Fuck the tiny thrill I feel at that. My hands slide around her back, pulling her closer. “Good.”

Her chilled fingers comb through my hair as our breaths mingle. I’ve thought about kissing her since the first day I saw her. But since that heated make out session on her kitchen floor, I haven’t been able to think about anything else.

“No one has to know, Milo.”

Part of me hates that we’re best kept as a secret. Another part of me feels a wicked thrill for the same reason.

I claim her lips without holding back. I take all I’ve been wanting for days, and she gives back in earnest. Our tongues swirl together. Her fingers comb through my hair greedily. As if she’s as desperate to possess me as I am to claim her. She grinds her hips against me and moans.
