I unfold my legs. Place one foot on the floor. Swivel my ankle to turn the chair back and forth.

Brett places a kiss on my shoulder.

His lips are warm.

So is his touch on my side.

I can feel his soft caress through the fabric of the shirt I’m wearing. His shirt. It’s way too big for me. Shrouds me like a tent. I had to fold up the sleeves so I could free my hands to eat. But I love it.

It smells like him—like pleasure.

Like wealth.

Like confidence.

My palm falls back.

Brushes against his abs.

His massive pecs.

The man is a work of art.

I’m not blind.

And Brett’s not shy.

He’s wearing nothing but his boxer briefs.

Which is something I’m sure the delivery guy questioned very much when Brett opened the door to pay for the food earlier.

“Here.” Brett’s deep voice rumbles close to my ear.

A pair of chopsticks appear in front of me.

A dumpling dipped in soy sauce.

I lean forward. Open my mouth. Accept the delicious dough.

Mm.

I lick my lips. Groan in pleasure.

The flavors explode in my mouth.

Rich. Decadent.

This is definitely not the five-dollar cuisine I’m used to having.

“Another one.” I wave two fingers.

The chopsticks return.

I nab the dumpling.

Taste the explosion of rich juices.

Groan even louder.

Brett arches an eyebrow. “You’re about to make me jealous.”

“You should be.”

He laughs.

I smile. Glance out the window.

Outside, there are no stars in the sky, but the city lights are a beautiful substitution.

Cars zip by on the highway.

Red lights.

Yellow lights.

The world spins. Moves. Hustles.

But here, in Brett’s office, feels like another world.

Just the two of us.

Me sitting on his lap.

His fingers on my hip.

His head on the dip of my shoulder.

The scent of me still lingers on his desk.

The scent of us still lingers on my skin.

Heavy silence still carries remnants of our desire.

Echoes of my hoarse screams.

His low, pleasured grunts.

My name on his lips.

His name on mine.

I’m trapped in the current of electricity that snaps around us.

Cocooning us from reality.

As soon as I leave the protection of his arms, doubts will attack.

But for now, I’m content, sticking close to him, cuddling, being fed.

Being… happy.

For the first time in my life.

And trying not to be scared.

Scared that I made the wrong decision.

That this night will come back to bite me.

Not just professionally.

Emotionally.

Brett’s already so commanding and overwhelming.

If I lose myself in him and he breaks me, will I ever find my way back?

It was different with Anthony.

Not this raw. Not this explosive.

Not this dangerous.

Brett is the kind of man who could leave me in pieces.

Forget walking away.

I’ll be torn limb from limb.

But there’s no going back.

I’ve already tasted of him.

I’ve already been branded by him.

By his lips.

His mouth.

His tongue.

Whatever safety measures I had in place have been blown to pieces. Now I’m just letting the current take me, hoping and praying it doesn’t dash me against the jagged rocks.

Brett kisses my shoulder again. “I’ve been listening to that album you mentioned.”

“The country one?” I glance back. Notice the way his silver eyes gleam.

He has that look on his face.

The one he wears when he’s about to tease me.
