Shit, nothing came to mind. Think, Rita, think!
“You’re taking too long to answer.” Nik’s voice was directly behind me. His hand gripped my waist, and I was pulled into him. “I’ll eatanything.”
I gulped, hearing the innuendo in his statement. But I recovered in a snap. “Pigs’ feet.”
“Love it.”
“Lengua… you know, cow tongue?”
“My favorite. Are we having both? Throw in a little pussy for dessert, and I accept your invitation.”
I whirled around and slapped him across the face. “You filthy son of a bitch!” I stepped back as he cupped his cheek. I didn’t mean to hit him. I just reacted because his dirty talk had me soaking wet, and Nik Tevez could never know how much he turned me on.
A wry smiled played on his lips. “You want me.”
“The fuck I do.”
“What time is dinner?”
“I rescind the offer.”
“I wouldn’t do that if I were you. Granny will get angry.”
“She’ll get over it.” I turned around, but Nik caught my wrist and pulled me back.
“I’m supposed to stay away from you, Nana Bea’s orders. But you’re making it impossible to honor the promise I made her.”
“Let me help you. Go to hell, Nik Tevez!” I jerked my hand and he released me. “I’m not interested.” I made my way home.
“The fuck you’re not.”
“Obey your Nana Bea and stay the hell away from me.”
“I never obey anyone!”
Jesus, why did that make me deliriously happy? I didn’t say anything as I trotted into my house. I closed the door and pressed my back against it. My heart thudded against my ribs, mirroring the throbbing in my shorts.
Why did his Nana Bea want him to stay away from me?
“That you, Rita?”
“Yes. It’s me.”
“Get cooking. Nik will be hungry.”
I didn’t have the heart to tell her he wasn’t coming. “Yes, Granny.” I went into the kitchen and prayed Granny would forget about Nik coming to dinner.
I also prayed for my mind to be wiped clean of Nik Tevez. But I doubted God paid attention to ridiculous requests like mine because I was weak against bad boys.
Bad boys like Nik Tevez and his all-consuming black eyes and confident, cocky attitude.
I was so screwed.

Nik
I STEPPED OUT of the shower and toweled off. I still sported a partial hard-on after jacking off to the image of Rita’s fine ass and taunting tits. I should feel guilty about breaking the promise I’d made Nana to stay away from Lucia’s granddaughter.
