Chapter 14

Incapable of forming a coherent thought, Roan stared in perplexed silence at the woman standing no less than a foot or so away, wondering when he'd developed such a serious hearing problem. The issue, Roan was quick to realize, did not lie within himself or his ears, but rather in the doe-eyed girl staring expectantly up at him, the violent flush coating her caramel skin, notwithstanding.

“You want me to what?” He thought he sounded relatively calm despite the absurdity of the situation, but Roan wondered how long that would last in the face of Sophie’s boldness. She’d managed to leave him thoroughly speechless on three consecutive occasions in just the last few hours alone.

Roan was averse to discover what else the eldest Grayson child had in store for him. They were unfortunately stuck in his apartment until the blizzard stopped. The meteorologist had said it could last a few more hours and even then, the predicted three feet of snow would be a bitch to clear through once it was all over. So he was stuck. They were stuck. Roan hadn’t minded until a few minutes ago. But now, he called himself ten types of fool for not driving Sophie home when he had the chance.

Sophie knew she should've been scared shitless. She should've fought to be released from this position so reminiscent of the scene with Roman in the alleyway. But fear was the last thing on Sophie’s mind. Her heart raced, thundered erratically in its barred prison for an entirely different reason. She furtively peered up at his face set in granite and met his narrowed black, fathomless eyes.

Riveted by the play of emotions on Roan’s face, Sophie watched, fascinated by his desperate battle for control and before he won that battle, she saw the desire that he worked so hard to conceal. Despite his menacing appearance, Sophie knew that Roan wanted her. Emboldened by that knowledge, she rose on her toes and whispered a kiss to the corner of his mouth.

“Teach me, Roan. I want to be your fuck buddy.” For an indiscernible amount of time Roan only stared,
