The way she felt in my arms. The way she leaned into me when I lost the battle with my cock to rub it against her. The way her eyes were on fire. She’d never looked more beautiful to me than in that moment.

There was no way I was taking her back.

Not yet.

I knew I wouldn’t let things go too far—at least not that night. However, I was nowhere near finished touching and kissing her.

I took her slender hand and walked her around to the passenger side of the Escalade; thankful I’d parked behind the bar and not in front. Not that I was worried about anyone seeing us. I was just glad that, for at least that first time, it was just us. Private.

I really wanted to guess her name. That had been my plan all night.

But as I was repeatedly learning—plans changed.

I’d never in a million years think I’d end up punching someone in the mouth the first time I went to a bar in Wynne. Especially since everyone in town had been so nice, up until that point.

I’d fix his tooth, if he came in Monday, but there was no way I was going to let someone talk to her like that. She already took too much shit from people. It was like she never noticed. It was like she was so used to it that it didn’t even register to her as being rude.

“You’re worth it,” I answered.

She sighed and leaned back in the seat with a smile. I may not have earned our first kiss the way I would have liked, but earning that contented smile was just as good.

I closed her door and rounded the front of the vehicle, thinking about where we should go. My place seemed so forward, and I didn’t want her to think that was all I was about.

I was about that, Christ, I so was, but it wasn’t right yet. And I’d be damned if I didn’t want to wait until it was totally right. For her.

I’d leave where we went up to O’Fallon … Hannah.

“Which way we headed?”

Her knee bounced and she took her time thinking. “We could go anywhere,” she said, but her voice was quiet, unsure.

“Is that to the right or the left?” I teased, not wanting her to be so nervous.
