“Oh, I need to pay—”

“Took care of it when you were in the bathroom,” he said simply.

“But the Red Bull,” I argued.

“I slid him a five. We’re all good.” He put his hands on my shoulders and led me out of the bar into the night.

It was still lightish out even though it was around eight.

A nice black chevy SUV pulled up. “You Mark?”

“Yup.” Mark opened my door for me. I slid across the leather, suddenly exhausted, and once Mark was sitting next to me, and we were moving, I laid my head on his shoulder.

And it wasn’t my imagination. He laid his head on top of mine like we’d done it a million times.

And then maybe whiskey made people hallucinate, but my hand was moving across my own lap and onto his!

Traitorous body parts!

His leg tensed, and then his hand slowly moved to my thigh, gripping it with capable fingertips, digging in just enough for me to wonder if he was going to slide his hand up.

Damn it, my Spanx!

Why did I have to be wearing Spanx?

This was the wrong time!

Bad timing.

I slowly started to pant as his hand slid higher, and then I may have let out a moan and arched a bit as he exhaled across my neck, his tongue finding a sensitive spot below my ear that had lust pounding through my system.

“My roommate’s gone,” he blurted once the SUV stopped in front of a nice apartment complex that I’d checked out earlier that year. It was right on a lake and newer construction.

“Okay.” My mouth was making decisions my body most definitely could not cash out. I mean, right?

I was going alone into Mark’s apartment.

By choice!

And he was holding my hand.

I looked down at our hands pressed together and felt like I was living outside my body; how did I get from a potential car ride home to walking into enemy territory?

He unlocked the door to 2C and let me in.

Darkness blanketed everything as the door clicked shut. I could feel his body heat as he stood behind me, then put his hand on my shoulders.

I let out a little shudder then asked, “Which one’s your room?”

Mark spun me around so fast I nearly fell, only to have him brace me up against the closest wall, his mouth molded against mine.

“Can’t wait,” he said between kisses, and then he hiked up my dress.

Oh. Shit.

Chapter Three

Mark

Was I really doing this? Seducing the girl who had driven me crazy for four straight years of college only to continue on with her torture by working across the street from me?

But God, I’d wanted her since Freshman year.

She was so soft in my hands as our mouths fused together. She didn’t try to force her tongue in my mouth but let me coax her into submission as I pressed my body against hers. My dick couldn’t get any harder, at least so I thought.

And then, I slid my hands up her thighs and felt something. “What’s this?”

“Oh shit,” she mumbled. “That is, those are, I mean—”

“Are you wearing Spanx?” I asked with a giant uncontainable grin.

Her cheeks flushed bright red. “Let me just go—”

“Oh no.” I kept her pinned in place. “Allow me…”

“Mark,” she warned.

“Olivia,” I moaned, using one hand to find the top of the high-waisted Spanx and tugging them down her perfect ass. “We all have our kink.”

“Wait, what did you just say?” Her eyes widened.

“I always imagined peeling these torture devices off a sexy as hell woman and being the guy that got to kiss his way around all that punished skin, all those gorgeous, trapped curves. It’s like my fucking birthday.” I shuddered against her when I was able to pull the rest of the black Spanx off her feet. Then I tossed them midair and slowly unzipped the back of her dress, bringing the zipper down, down, down… until I grabbed at the front scoop neck top, pulling the loose dress off and shoving it to the floor.

She was wearing a black strapless bra, her chest rising and falling like a hummingbird’s wings.

We locked eyes. Hers had always been this almost cruelly cold blue color that had me transfixed since our first fight.

My gaze finally left hers to drink in the rest of her curvy body. There were small imprints on her stomach from the Spanx. I went to my knees and pressed tiny kisses across the poor skin, while I flicked the strapless bra off with glee.

“That tickles.” She squirmed beneath my mouth and then stopped squirming when I finally lowered my gaze.

I suddenly felt a bit dizzy.

How much had we drunk anyway?

She stumbled forward. I barely caught her before we fell back against the floor, her on top of my throbbing erection, completely naked.

“We doing this?” She threw her hair over her shoulder in an attempt, I think maybe, to look sexy but just ended up making me smile at how cute she was as she tugged at the front of my jeans, freeing me.
