EMORY
What the fuck am I doing?
This is all her fault.
One second, Iâm flipping out of my bed in the dead of night and taking care of the woman I call my wife while sheâs seemingly in the middle of some type of panic attack, and the next, Iâm kneeling on the floor in between her legs, silently begging her to let me touch her.
This is a terrible fucking idea.
I know it down to my core.
Butâ¦
But her pussy is picture perfect. Iâve never seen a prettier one.
And her skin? Itâs soft in all the right places and smoother than the ice after a Zamboni machine.
âI do want you to touch meâ¦â Her voice is addicting, and if Iâm being honest, I feel that way even when sheâs sassing me. âButâ¦â
But?
She has a âbutâ?
âI canât let you because this will never work if we start crossing lines, and I need this marriage to work more than you know.â
For a second, desperation fills my every thought. Iâm coming up with excuses and even considering telling her that Iâll pay her more, which stops me right in my tracks.
Sheâs not a fucking prostitute. What the hell am I doing?
Her shaky sigh pulls me away long enough to where I can force out an agreement. âYouâre right.â
I stand quickly and turn my back to her. After tucking my dick into the waistband of my sweats, I walk over to the light and flip it off.
Weâre blanketed in darkness, which is a relief. Iâm not in the right state of mind to continue looking at her sitting on the edge of my bed in nothing but a T-shirt. Iâve always thought she was attractive and alluring in the most agonizing way, but itâs the way she just gazed up at me that pulled on every last restraint I thought I had honed.
She didnât resemble the woman that attempted to blackmail me or the tough, independent one who loves to mouth off to me. The more time I spend observing her, the more I realize my perception may be slightly incorrect.
Iâve witnessed sides of her that she doesnât know about, but after seeing her hidden desire and learning how tempting she is, I realize that I need to get my shit together and focus more on my goal and less on my dick.
As soon as I land on the bed, Scottie moves to stand. Thankful for my height and long arms, I grab onto the fabric of her shirt and drag her back.
âI wonât touch you. But youâre sleeping in here tonight.â
âThatâs not necessary,â she says quietly. âIâll be fine downstairs.â
A sarcastic noise leaves me. âI didnât ask.â
She matches the noise, but I cut her off before she can say anything else. âGet in the bed and go to sleep, or Iâll just follow you downstairs and sleep on the couch beside you.â
Donât fucking tempt me, Scottie.
âThere isnât room on the couch for both of us.â
âExactly.â My response is a warning, and itâs one I know sheâll heed.
