Lord have mercy.

Kyler walked into her house with a face full of determination. Soon as he crossed the threshold behind her father, he sent that fortitude flying in Bree’s direction and she almost had to sit down.

They hadn’t been in one another’s company since yesterday at the gym and she’d been plagued by hot needles of lust stabbing her at the most inopportune moments. Especially right now with those green eyes riding over her like a roller coaster car, lighting her erogenous zones up with bolts of thunder.

She’d worn two bras to dinner. That’s how responsive her body—most noticeably, her nipples—were in Kyler’s presence. Well, sitting across from her father with nipples hard enough to poke an eye out wouldn’t be appropriate, would it? Thank God for her foresight because they were already reminiscing about his mouth and tongue’s treatment yesterday, sitting up and begging for more attention.

Is that what Kyler’s determination was all about? Getting her down to the creek after dinner to revisit old memories? Granted, those memories didn’t feel in the least bit old. On the contrary, they were so fresh, she could remember them in vivid detail. As if they’d lain together on the grass as recently as today.

Since their interlude in the gym, Bree had tried to put herself into a more practical mindset. Maybe she was overthinking this situation with Kyler. They were two consenting adults with off-the-freaking-charts chemistry. He was in town for a matter of days, offering what sounded like no-commitment sex. They liked and respected one another. Why couldn’t she indulge and stop worrying about what it would mean if they hooked up?

She was still asking herself that question when Kyler set down his apple pie offering on the table and leaned in to kiss her cheek. “Supergirl.”

“Ky.” Even after Kyler pulled back, her face tingled where his lips had touched. “Don’t try and pass that pie off as your own creation. I know a Jess Tate original when I see it.”

A dimple showed at the corner of his mouth. “Official taste tester is a very important job. It often goes underappreciated.”

“Speaking of, I’m surprised you didn’t eat half on the drive over.” Flirting. She was flirting. In her own dining room, for heaven’s sake. “Are you finally learning to control yourself?”

His voice dropped, along with his gaze, where it lingered on her double-lifted breasts. “Leaning to control myself?” He made a low sound. “Just barely.”

Bree’s face heated. “Kyler Joseph Tate.”

“Stop tempting me when your daddy is nearby.” His grin and wink sent her blood to rushing. “I’ve got a bet to win.”

“Right. The bet.”

Something about the way she said it made Kyler’s smile flatten, his eyes growing troubled. “Bree—”

“Get comfortable. Dinner’s almost ready.”

She escaped into the kitchen, hoping she hadn’t shown her hand. It was ridiculous to feel hurt by Kyler being interested in her physically. He didn’t have it in him to be disrespectful. Heck, he’d shown up on time with a pie to have dinner with her father and sister.
