so innocent expression on her face. “You taste good.”
Her toes went up his calf, then back down again in a teasing stroke. “I wonder what you taste like. We’ve never kissed.”
“I know.” His voice had lowered. His cock throbbed. Fuck they needed to get out of here, but the waiter still hadn’t brought the bill. “I wanted to earlier.”
“But you don’t want to now?” Delicate brows rose, pouty lips pursed. Her foot dropped from his leg and then, Holy Mother of God, went right for his lap, her toes curling around the front of his jeans, sliding over his erection.
“Hell yes, I want to,” he growled, glancing about the restaurant in frustration. “Where the hell is our goddamned check?”
She laughed, a joyous little sound that declared clearly she was having a lot of fun with this. Her toes stroked again, teasing him, and he bit back a curse. “Eager to leave?”
“Only if I know you’re going with me.”
She stilled, her expression serious. “It’s your lucky night. I’ve decided that I’m definitely going with you.”
Relief flooded him, and he wanted to shout in victory. Yes. She was going home with him. He didn’t know what he wanted to do first, fuck her senseless or eat her pussy. Both sounded good. He didn’t even know what she looked like naked. Hell, they hadn’t even kissed yet.
Which meant tonight was going to be about discovery. And it was going to be so, so sweet.
Chapter Five
Scarlett had agreed to go home with Trevor because really, she didn’t have a choice. The attraction between them was too strong, too wild to ignore. The second they locked gazes, heat flared between them, searing her to the bone. He’d come for her immediately after the show ended, gorgeous and breathless and eager, and she’d wanted to melt into the floor. He’d escorted her out of the theatre so fast she thought he’d given her whiplash.
He wanted to get her alone, and it thrilled her. Dinner had been delicious. She’d been starved, but she could hardly remember what she ate. And sushi was one of her favorite treats.
All memories were forgotten now that she was walking into Trevor’s apartment. The place was dark, shadows coming from the uncovered kitchen window casting shards of light in spots. She waited, her entire body shaking as he quietly shut the door and approached her from behind.
And then he was there, touching her, his hand, his fingers on her neck, pushing aside her ponytail. She held her breath. Her shoulders were tense as she waited for his next move. She knew he wouldn’t disappoint.
Trevor didn’t. His mouth landed at her nape, hot and wet and sucking on her skin. She sighed, and her eyes slid closed as he continued his gentle assault, teeth nibbling, arms wrapping around her middle. His hands splayed across her stomach, fingers spread wide, and she arched into his touch.
“I want to possess every inch of you,” he whispered hotly against her ear before he nipped it with his teeth.
She shuddered, heaved a harsh breath as he licked her ear. “I’m no one’s possession.”
He chuckled, his tongue darting out to lick her lobe. “I could make you mine. And you’d enjoy every minute of it.”
She didn’t doubt that for a second. Everything about him told her he knew exactly what he was doing. That he would bring her insurmountable pleasure of the likes she’d never experienced before.
Anticipation curled through her, and she slid her hands over his arms, her fingers tracing the veins in his strong forearms, the hairs that grew there tickling her palms. He felt solid, strong, and when his hands manipulated at her sides, turning her to face him she went willingly.
He cupped her face, his thumbs stroking her cheeks, drawing closer and closer to her mouth. She stared up at him, enthralled by his expression. Heavy lidded, his lashes thick and dark, casting shadows across his skin—a face of seduction, of sin. A lock of dark brown hair flopped over his forehead, giving him an almost boyish look, and she marveled at the contrasts.
Wicked and sweet. Dark and light.
Trevor studied her mouth, his lips parting and she turned her face up, ready for his kiss. His thumb streaked across her lower lip, back and forth, catching on her skin and her tongue snuck out, licking at the tip.
“You’re beautiful,” he whispered, sinking his thumb deeper into her mouth. “Suck it like you would suck my cock.”
Her insides melted at his hot words, and she did as he asked, her lips wrapped tight around his thumb, her tongue licking. She sucked him deep, her hand grabbing at his wrist so she could draw his thumb in and out of her mouth. A groan escaped him as he kept his gaze locked on her face, her lips. The passion she saw there was unmistakable.
It made her feel powerful, strong. For a man who wielded such control he gave it up to her just as easily, letting her please him, drive him wild without further command. She liked being told what to do. Something she hadn’t admitted to him, a fact she didn’t like to admit to anyone except for those who figured it out.
And only a select few did that.
“Get on your knees.” He pulled his thumb from her mouth, his voice harsh, his breathing harsher.
Scarlett stared up at him, surprised by his request. “I thought…” She licked her lips, scrambling to get her bearings. “I thought you were going to kiss me.”
