She rocked against his face, wanting it.

“That’s it, rub your pussy all over my face, Eliza. I love how you taste. I could eat you out all fucking day long.”

“I might hold you to that.”

He used his teeth and she whimpered at the sudden onslaught of pain, but it wasn’t too much. It was just enough to take her to the edge, where he held her.

She’d never been so ready to come, but James had command over her body. Even as she begged him to let her come, he didn’t. He stopped and the need built within her until it felt like it was too much.

Finally, he pushed her over the edge, and she came hard, screaming for more. James wasn’t done with letting her come just once, though. No, he wanted her to tumble multiple times, and when she did, the fire was burning bright.

He brought her to the peak twice more, and then he stepped back from the bed, pulled off his shirt, shoved down his jeans, and stood before her. His dick long, thick, and ready to fuck.

She watched as he wrapped his fingers around his length, working up and down. “Do you want this?” he asked.

Yes, she did, and what was more, she didn’t care if he thought of her as a slut either. Smiling up at him, she curled her finger and beckoned him over to him. “I’m more than ready for you.”

Chapter Five

A couple of days later

“How long does it have to be before you call a woman back?” James asked Rome and Caleb, who had decided to come to his shop for a visit.

“You went on a date?” Rome asked.

Caleb hit him. “This about Eliza?”

He rubbed the back of his head, not really sure if he wanted to talk to his brothers about what went on between him and Eliza.

They’d had sex. Crazy, hot, amazing sex, even with her bad ankle. The day after, though, Aunt Betty had come by to pick her up, and he hadn’t seen her since. He didn’t know if he should be worried. She hadn’t called and he hadn’t gone to see if she was okay either. He didn’t know the proper protocol when it came to dealing with a woman he wanted to see again. He was completely clueless. All the other women he’d been with meant nothing to him. They were nothing more than one-night stands. Eliza was different.

“What do I do?”

“First, tell us if this is Eliza or some random woman you’ve picked up.”

“You know it’s Eliza. There’s no way I could have been with anyone else while she’s there for me.” He pointed at the empty space as if she’d appear any minute. “I’m fucked.” His brothers knew he’d intended to ask her out to prom but rather than do that, he balked at every chance he’d been given.

It wasn’t like they’d been close friends throughout high school. He’d watched her. Of course he had because she had entered a room and captured his attention from the moment he saw her.

“This really is serious, isn’t it?” Caleb asked, moving to the counter and jumping up to sit on it.

“Do you mind?”

“You’ve got woman troubles, and we’re here to help.”

“Oh, that’s just great. The two men without a woman are going to tell me how to win mine over. I’ll have her in no time.” He grabbed the supplies that had been dumped on his counter and walked through his shop, putting them back on the shelves.

People did that from time to time. They’d come in, dump what they wanted, realize they had no money, leave, and not return. He’d left them on the counter for four hours. It was time to put them away. He’d been lost in his own little world, thinking about Eliza. Feeling like his chance with her was slipping away with every passing minute and he couldn’t do anything to stop it.

“We don’t have to help you with your woman troubles,” Rome said. “I don’t even know how to get a woman to look at me.”

“No, you don’t know how to get a woman to eat when she’s on a date with you. There’s a difference.”

“Piss off.” Rome glared at Caleb.

“Stop focusing on yourselves here. Do I call her or not?”

“Did you screw her?” Caleb asked.

He scowled at his brother, who held his hands up.

“If you screwed her and she was just a bit of fun, then you don’t call. If you want to hear from her, then you’ve got to call back.” Caleb shrugged. “It’s that easy.”

He looked at Caleb.

“Why make it so hard on yourself? You like her, right?”

“Yes, you know I like her.” Everyone in his family knew he liked her. “I’m going to go ask her on a date. Watch the shop.”

“Whoa, what the fuck? I’m not your employee.”
