LUCAS

I was elated Reese decided to come home with me. I wanted to show her that despite my social status, I was a regular guy. I wanted to prove to her I was serious about wanting to get to know her.

Farnsworth dropped us off in front of my penthouse. I hadn’t stopped holding her hand, my fingers linked with hers. A surge of electricity ran up my nerves, something I only felt when I was with her.

As we stepped into my penthouse, I removed my suit jacket, placing it over the back of a chair as I loosened my tie.

“Did you want anything to drink? Water, wine, champagne? Something harder?” I winked.

She rolled her eyes. “Are you trying to get me drunk to take advantage of me?” She cocked a brow, a serious tone to her voice.

“I would never take advantage of you while you’re drunk,” I growled. “Never. Only when you’re sober and submitting yourself to me,” I said in a low voice.

Her eyes smoldered as she smirked. “I’ll take a glass of Cabernet Sauvignon if you have it.”

I grabbed a wine glass and poured the fragrant burgundy. “Reese, please tell me why you are so reluctant to be with me.” I ushered her to the couch to sit next to me.

“I’m not your type. I’ve seen you with models and celebrities. Why would you want to be with me?”

“I—"

“I’m not done yet, Lucas,” she said, interrupting me.

If this was an entirely different situation, I would reprimand her for interrupting me, but this was not the time. I nodded for her to continue.

“As I was saying, I’m not even close to the type of women I know you get with. Do you want to date me as some type of cruel joke? So the media can make fun of my appearance and ask why the Lucas Blessington is dating me?” She sniffled. “I don’t want to get emotionally attached, just to have you break my heart.” Her voice quivered.

“Look at me, Reese,” I demanded. She sniffled again and lifted her hand to her face, swiping her cheek. “I said look at me.” I pinched her chin with my thumb and forefinger, tipping her head to up to meet my gaze. Tears slid down her cheeks, her eyes welling with tears. I cupped her cheek, wiping the wetness away with my thumb. “I don’t know why you can’t see what I see. I think you’re intelligent and hot as fuck.” I grinned. “This isn’t a joke. I want to get to know you and see where this – whatever this is – takes us.”

I placed our glasses on the coffee table, then cupped her face with both hands, staring into her eyes. “You have been on my mind every day since we met. I crave you and your gorgeous fucking body every damn day.” I searched her eyes, finding apprehension in them. “I want you and only you.”

She flung her arms around my neck, then pulled me forward, planting a firm kiss on my lips.
