CHAPTER SEVENTEEN

Thomas

“Are you nervous?” George asks on the phone.

I sit outside Ami’s flat, my foot tapping, black coffee buzzing in my veins.

“Maybe a little,” I say, understating it massively. “I’ve been bloody cold with her ever since…”

Bleed him dry.

I push the words out of my head. They’ve hounded me ever since I heard them, so I’ve acted like an arse, distancing myself without an explanation. I’ve checked in on her through my security team, but other than that, I’ve done my best to push her from my mind, and I’ve failed miserably. She’s always there. Even if this is a trick, I can’t stop wanting her.

“Relax,” George replies, and I can tell he’s smiling, a quirk in his voice.

“What?” I ask. We’ve been friends long enough for me not to have to explain what I’m asking.

“I’m happy you’re nervous,” he says. “I’ve never seen you like this with a woman before.”

“It’s not like there’s much to compare it to.”

“True. Want some advice from a happily married man?”

“Please.”

“Take today for what it is. Don’t worry about the gold-digger crap. Don’t let your mind ruin this for you.”

“I’ll try to remember that,” I tell him. “I’ve got to go.”

My woman is walking across the street, looking so adorably touristy I have to smile. I’m beaming brightly all over, warmth spreading, and an injection of sudden happiness immediately dominates me. It’s her, my Ami, more potent than any drug.

She’s wearing a bum bag—she’d call it a fanny pack—with denim dungarees, thick boots, her hair tied up, and a Union Jack pin over one breast. Her lips are curved into an unsure smile as she approaches, and I can’t blame her. She’s probably wondering what version of me she’s going to get. I open the car door and step outside. She stops just short of me, fiddling with the strap of her bum bag.

“Uh, hey,” she says.

The second I hear her gorgeously American voice, I know I made a mistake with the distance, the cold. Sweeping her into my arms feels like the most natural thing in the world. I expect her to push me away, but maybe she has it within her, too, this hungry need to be together. She moans erotically when I kiss her in public on the street. I don’t want anybody else to see her like this, to hear her sexy-as-hell moans, but I can’t resist. She tastes like perfection. Her body burns against me, hot through her clothes, as if her deep desire to be together is blazing through.

“Wow,” she murmurs. “I wasn’t expecting that.”

I keep my arms around her. “I’ve been a dickhead, haven’t I?”

“I wouldn’t put it like that,” she says with a small smile. “Does this mean you believe me now?”

I swallow, wanting to tell her yes.

“Tommy…” She leans back into my embrace, narrowing her eyes. “I promise she was just being a dork. Telling a silly joke. It doesn’t mean anything.”

I kiss her on the forehead. “I know. I believe you.”

“Is that the truth?”

“Yes and no,” I sigh.
