She noticed the way his breathing changed, and she swore his eyes flashed fire at her. Was her arousal that obvious?
She opened her mouth to bring the focus back on her car, but Deacon pushed off the counter and strode towards her. Jessa couldn’t move as she watched him stop in front of her. He was just so big that his entire body took up her eyesight.
With the slow, steady pump of music all around her, the scent of him filling her lungs, and the masculine sexuality he threw off, she was helpless to stop what he did next.
He gripped her behind her neck and pulled her forward until her body slammed against his. Her breasts pressed against the hard planes of his chest, and the air gushed out of her at the feel of his rock hard planes against her softness.
For several long minutes all he did was search her face. Neither said anything, but she knew he could see the need clearly on her face. It felt like her body would explode if he didn’t touch more of her.
“You are so fucking beautiful.” His words were spoken softly, and she couldn’t deny that having him give her the compliment along with the profanity drove her need higher.
Deacon was rough around the edges, brutal in his strength, and didn’t apologize over these traits. She found it just as attractive as Thayer’s gentleness.
He lifted his hand and ran his finger along her cheek. The scent of motor oil filled her senses, and she closed her eyes and leaned into his touch.
The growl that came from him had her opening her eyes and staring up at him.
“I tried to give you time, baby. I don’t want to rush you, but you have to know how much I want you.” He started to lower his head to hers until his lips were a hairsbreadth away. “Your scent invades my senses, and your closeness drives me up the fucking wall.” His warm breath slid along her face. “Will you let me taste you, baby?”
She felt herself nod even though she knew without a doubt this was probably a very bad idea.
“Yeah.”
The way he said it sounded gravelly and self-assured, and if she hadn’t wanted it just as bad she might have pushed away just to prove a point.
“That’s right, baby. You want this, too.” Yeah, she did, but she couldn’t find the words to voice it.
Fortunately, his lips crashed against hers, taking her mouth in a bruising kiss that didn’t let her think of anything aside from the fact he wanted her with a desperation that rivaled her own.
