“Slash, I…I…”

“Yes.”

I frowned. “Yes, what?”

“Whatever you were going to ask me that you’re too chicken shit to ask me, my answer is yes.”

I huffed. “Why do you do that?”

“Do what?”

“Call me out like that?”

He shrugged. “Why do you put up such a front? What are you trying to ask me, Brooklyn?”

The way he said my name made me shiver.

“Would you”—I took a deep breath—“like to come upstairs?”

“For coffee?”

I shook my head.

“Tea?”

I shook my head again.

“Pie?”

“Pie?”

“You own a bakery,” he pointed out.

“No coffee, tea, or pie.”

He stared at me. “I’m a Nomad.”

“I know.”

“I don’t do relationships.”

“Even better.”

“I’m leaving town in the morning,” he went on like he hadn’t heard my quip. “One night is all this can ever be.”

“One night.” I nodded.

He removed his hand from the steering wheel and reached out to cup my cheek, turning my face so I was forced to meet his gaze. I could see the heat in his eyes. The want.

“This will be a night you’ll never forget,” he rasped.

I couldn’t stop the full-body shiver that started at the base of my neck and shot down to my toes. “I’m not sure I even like you. You’re arrogant.”

“You like me enough to let that go.” He shrugged. “But you should know, I’ve got two rules.”

“Rules? Of course you do,” I muttered. When he didn’t retort back, I paused. “What are the rules?”

“You don’t ask about my ink, and you don’t ask about my scar.”
