CHAPTER 11

The first time you realize that you don’t want anyone else but him

Asher pulled up in front of her house just as the airport van arrived. He leaned over the bolster to pull Savannah’s face to his, then swept his tongue into her mouth, branding her, wanting her to remember every detail of their lovemaking all weekend long so that no other guys could possibly live up to the scorching intensity of their time together.

Damn it, but he hated letting her go.

She smiled at him shyly, then blushed and dropped her eyes. “I feel like everyone will know what we’ve been up to. I feel like it’s written all over my face.”

“Good.” He kissed her hard again. “I want them to know. Especially the dozen guys in the condo next door.”

“Oh, Asher. I’ve been in New York for years now. I wear black and curse too much. I’m not what any of the Danvers Country Club set is looking for. I’m not what they want.”

He looked at her face—her full pink lips, flushed cheeks, bright eyes, and shiny brown hair. “You’re what every man wants.”

“But I’m your girlfriend.”

And he had no choice. He had to kiss her again, only pulling back from her when they heard a sharp rapping on the glass beside her. Asher let his hand slide down her face and pushed the button on his door to open her window.

Scarlet Carmichael stood outside the window with her hands on her hips and a very sour expression on her face. “Really, Savannah? Really? The night before my bach you do a disappearing act?”

Asher leaned over the seat, looking up at Scarlet. “Sorry, Scarlet. It was my fault too.”

Scarlet pouted. “Nobody ever made Savannah Calhoun Carmichael do a thing she didn’t want to do, Asher Lee. Hush up.”

“Don’t you speak to him like that,” said Savannah, reaching for Asher’s hand.

“SA-VAN-NAH! The van is here! My attendants are inside drinkin’ Bellinis. We are leavin’ in ten minutes, and no one had any idea where on God’s green earth you were!”

“Well, I’m here now, I’m already packed, and I’ll be right in for a Bellini.” Savannah made a whisking movement at Scarlet’s face with her free hand. “Go on. Go on, now. I’m sayin’ my good-byes.”

“Well, say them … FASTER!” growled Scarlet, turning, well, scarlet. She stomped back into the house, her aqua-blue-and-white-striped sundress swishing angrily in her wake.

Savannah turned back to Asher. “I guess I have to go.”

“I’m sorry I got you in trouble.”

She shrugged, lifting his hand to her lips and kissing it softly. “It was worth it.”

He leaned forward, swapping his lips for his hand and gently kissing her with all the love in his heart. “Be good now, ya hear?”

She nodded, giving him a sweet smile as she opened the door and walked through the white picket fence.

Asher’s heart ached as he watched the front door closed behind her. Then he turned his car around and pointed it east, toward Maryland.
