He reached out and brushed his fingers across her lips. The scent and taste made her gasp. Had he just used the same fingers—yes, yes he had.He leaned over and kissed her gently, sucking the taste from her lips.
“I’m stopping because we’re home and I don’t want your first real orgasm to be in the back seat of a car. But…still nervous?”
Awareness dawned. Her nerves had been chased into a dark corner. All she wanted right now was more of Auden, more of whatever he was giving her. If he’d tried to strip her naked in the back seat, she probably would’ve let him.
“No.”
“Good.” Auden smiled. “Len, you mind heading up and unlocking the door for us?”
Lennox.She’d forgotten.Oh my God.Mortification burned up her body, fire settling in her face.
Her horror must’ve been evident because Auden cupped her chin. “Don’t do that. Don’t be embarrassed. Nothing to be ashamed of.”
“He’s right,” Len said from the front seat, the quality of his voice different, deeper.
She forced herself to look his way.
He met her gaze, a quiet intensity there. “Thanks for trusting me to be here for that. I kept my promise and didn’t look, but listening…that was hot as fuck.” He gave her a chagrined smile and reached downward. “I’m hard as a goddamned rock.”
Without realizing how it’d look, she leaned over, her attention going downward. A thick erection was outlined beneath his hand. The spot between her legs where she was already throbbing squeezed tight, and her teeth dragged along her bottom lip.
“Yeah, you did that,” Len said, no ire there. “Now, I’ll leave you two kids to it. Obviously, I have something to take care of if I want to be able to walk straight tomorrow.” Lennox gave her a playful wink and then climbed out of the car. “Don’t do anything I wouldn’t do.”
As she watched Len saunter off, she could feel Auden watching her, studying her.
She adjusted her dress, pulling the hem down and feeling suddenly awkward. She ventured a glance at Auden, finding a pensive look on his face. “What? Why are you looking at me like that?”
He tilted his head. “You like that you got Len hot and bothered.”
She stiffened, the words making her want to backpedal. “What are you talking about? I—”
“It’s not an accusation,” he said with a little smile. “Just an observation. If you want to learn, then we need to pay attention to what turns you on. Some people…like to be watched. Others like the power trip of knowing they can tease someone. Maybe you fall into one or both of those categories.”
Her mouth opened and closed, probably making her look like a guppy. “You’re making me sound like some kind of freak.”
He laughed. “Not at all. Everybody has their turn-ons. Sometimes they’re common, sometimes they’re quirky, sometimes kinky. As long as everyone involved is a consenting adult, nothing wrong with any of it.”
She rubbed her hand over her forehead, the sheer amount of possibilities overwhelming. “I don’t know what I am.”
“That’s okay.” He took her hand and ran his thumb across her knuckles. “How do you feel about the fact that he’s definitely going upstairs to jerk off to thoughts of what he just witnessed?”
She rolled her lips together, shyness trying to take over.
“There’s no wrong answer,” he said.
She took a breath and glanced at the house, thinking about Lennox inside. “Seeing him like that made me feel…warm. But I don’t feel powerful. I maybe feel…bad for him? Like it’s not fair that he has to be alone.”
Auden’s eyes narrowed. “Hmm. Good to know.”
A laugh escaped her, surprising her, and she poked him in the chest. “Good to know?What is that? You pull answers out of me and then don’t tell me what they mean?”
He smiled and bent forward to kiss her. “I’m gathering information. Final results to be determined later. But for now, let’s note that maybe you have a little exhibitionist streak hiding in there. Wouldn’t have guessed that.”
She huffed. “Right. Thanks. So I’m a freak. A virgin freak, no less.”
He reached for the door and sent her a teasing look. “Hey, look on the bright side, we can handle one part of that soon enough. Then you’ll just be a freak.”
“Ugh!” She tried to smack his arm, but he was already out of the car.
