Chapter 11

“Want to come in and see my house?” Adeline asked Dean nervously.

After the disastrous beginning, lunch had turned out to be wonderful. Their waitress had been extremely attentive, getting refills and making sure they had everything they needed. Adeline enjoyed the looks Dean gave her, as if he really did think her telling off the manager and threatening to sue him was sexy.

And when it came time for the bill to be delivered, their waitress had informed them that lunch was on the house, to apologize for the “misunderstanding” earlier.

Adeline knew it wasn’t a misunderstanding, but she let it go. Lunch had been good, she’d enjoyed seeing Dean relax, liked feeling how she affected him, and loved spending time with him.

They’d watched the short 4D movie and now they were standing on her front porch. Adeline had unlocked the door and was standing beside it nervously. She’d let Coco off his leash and released him from duty. He’d bounded into the house, happy as a clam, and now it was just her and Dean.

He smiled at her and put his hand on the side of her neck. God, she loved it when he did that.

“No.”

“No?” Adeline asked in surprise. That totally wasn’t the answer she was expecting. Especially not after their hot-as-hell kisses and having her hand in his lap. He was more than ready and she had no doubt he could get that way again in a heartbeat.

“Not today,” Dean told her with a grin and an intense look in his eyes. “If I follow you inside your house, I’m gonna want to do more than make out. I’m gonna want to find out if your pussy tastes as sweet as your lips. Then I’m gonna want to find out if you’re as hot on the inside as you are on the outside.”

Adeline could only gape up at him. Did he really just say that?

“Did you really just say that?”

He chuckled. “And that right there is why I’m not coming inside to look at your house. You’re not ready. Beautiful, I refuse to rush this. Us. We have all the time in the world.”

“But…I thought all guys wanted to have sex.”

“Well, I’m not all guys. And let’s be clear here. We’ll have sex, yes, and we’ll fuck, but the first time I take you, we’ll be making love. I want to look into your eyes and see more than just lust there. I’m not saying I’m gonna wait until you have my ring on your finger, or that we have to declare our everlasting love for each other before it happens, but I like you, Adeline. I like everything about you. Even the things you think I’m not supposed to like. I don’t want to fuck this up before we’re solid. Got me?”

“Um…no.”

He chuckled and pulled her into his arms.

Adeline wrapped her arms around his waist and laid her cheek on his chest. She could hear the lub-lub-lub of his heart beating strongly. She felt his hands splayed
