“You’re beautiful.”
“Does it fit the bill?”
“Definitely.”
“Okay. We’re done, then.”
“Buy more. More than the ones she brought you. About ten. You’ll be situated then for a few months.?
??
“Okay.”
Forty minutes later, Josie came out wearing the last dress. White with silver streaks, showcasing every curve. She was so goddamn sexy in it that I nearly swallowed my tongue. Her breasts were peeking out of the top of the gown, her neck and shoulders on full display.
“I love this dress. But I want something to cover my shoulders.”
“I can call Honor to find something.”
“No, just give me that scarf, I think it will work with all the dresses. I can throw it over my shoulders and just knot it in the front.”
She pointed to a mannequin with a silver scarf around its neck. I brought it, but instead of handing it to Josie, I wrapped it around her shoulders myself.
I rested my thumbs on her clavicle, desperate to steal a touch under the pretense of playing the fiancé.
“This took longer than we thought,” she said.
“I’m not complaining.”
“How so?”
“You didn’t close the curtains completely.”
She gasped. “Naughty fiancé.”
“That’s not naughty, Josie.” I dragged my thumbs up the sides of her neck, stopping at the nape, coming closer. “If I’d been naughty, I would’ve come after you in that changing room and kissed you until you moaned.”
“Hunter, you can’t say these things,” she whispered. Her cheeks turned pink. Her pulse accelerated. I felt its thrum under my thumbs.
“Of course, I can. I’m your fiancé.”
“You’re impossible.”
“Just wait until I’m your husband.”
The skin on her arms broke out in goose bumps. Her breath caught. Her reaction to me was intoxicating. A touch wasn’t enough anymore. I needed a kiss.
The salesperson was coming our way. I could pass this off as a kiss for the public, right?
I sealed my mouth over Josie’s the next second, and every doubt I had subsided, because she was kissing me back with a fervor that nearly brought me to my knees. When she sucked on my tongue, instinct overpowered every rational thought.
I wanted to kiss, claim, fuck.
I had no idea how I managed to pull back, but I did.
Josie averted her gaze, turning to Honor, who was looking between us with a wide smile.
“We’re taking everything,” I informed her.
