He slapped my butt with his wide palm. “Never gonna happen, sweet girl.” Then he kissed the tip of my nose. “I need to get going.”
“What?”
“Work. I have to go to work.” He straightened, setting me aside. If I had less control of myself, I would have stomped and whined. But I wasn’t that girl. I’d never beg and plead with a man to give me attention.
“Okay. See you later.” I turned toward my house, but Lachlan spun me back around before I could take a step. “I thought you had to work?”
He held my shoulders, keeping me in place in front of him. I stared back at him, hiding my disappointment.
“I do, but I’m wondering why you went from liking me to giving me the cold shoulder in the blink of an eye.”
“I don’t like being kissed on the nose.”
He blinked. “Okay. I won’t do it if it bothers you.”
“That was a lie. I don’t want you to stop.” I folded my arms across my chest. “It only bothers me when that’s the only kiss I’m getting—especially after we just talked about fucking each other for the last ten minutes.”
His confusion morphed into something hot. Yanking me into his body, he dipped down and covered my mouth with his. Clinging to his shoulders, I tried to climb him, to get closer. His arm banded beneath my ass, lifting me so I could wrap my legs around his middle. He turned, pressing me to the back of his truck, his thick erection hitting my center.
I whimpered, sliding my tongue along his. My hands tangled in his hair, pulling him closer, closer, marveling at how well his mouth fit with mine, how delicious his taste was to me, how exactly we aligned with each other.
His kisses slowed, turning languid. These were just as good as the first crushing ones. I grinned into his mouth, and his lips tipped against mine. I kissed the smile off him, licking the edges of it.
“Okay. That was a much better goodbye.” My forehead rested on his. My legs were still locked around him. He’d go. He wouldn’t stay here and miss work to fuck me. But I’d keep him here for as long as he allowed.
Which wasn’t long. “You’re gonna have to let me go, sweet girl.” His lips brushed over mine. “You’re making me forget it’s broad daylight. Making me want to open the tailgate and fuck you in the bed of my truck.”
“Let’s do that. I’ve never done that before.”
He chuckled. “We can do that, but it’s not going to be when there are people walking by every two minutes.”
I lowered my legs, taking special care to rub myself against the thick ridge bulging behind his zipper. He groaned, giving my butt a hard squeeze. I liked knowing he was as affected as I was.
“Have a nice day at work, babe.” I patted his erection.
He fisted the back of my hair, jerking me into him again. The rumble that came from his chest was so close to a purr, I almost melted into him.
“You’re going to drive me mad, aren’t you?” His jaw was tight, but he didn’t look the least bit mad about it.
“Yep. And you’re going to enjoy every second of it.”
I couldn’t wait to find out what Lachlan’s limits were. It would be a fun challenge.
But I was really kind of hoping he was strong enough to handle me.
