He pulled back. “Oh, are you cold? Here, let me build a fire.”

Thank God he’d misread it. I didn’t want him to know how horny I was.

I watched as he bent down, putting logs in the fireplace. He lit a match and dropped it into the fire, and soon the flame was crackling, warming the living room.

It was nice.

Kind of romantic.

I looked back toward the balcony, sipping my beer. After three, I was a little buzzed, happy. It was nice to watch the snow like this, especially with a guy like Jacob.

I felt him come up behind me.

We were so close together.

Slowly, I turned to face him.

Chapter Five

Jacob

The way Maddy looked up at me was driving me crazy.

I couldn't stand it. I knew it was wrong, but I wanted her so much.

I put my hand on her waist again. This time, she didn’t shiver.

“Maddy,” I murmured.

“Yeah?”

I was silent. So was she.

I leaned down and kissed her.

She rose on her toes to meet me, both arms sliding around my neck. I held her there, my tongue teasing her lower lip.

She eased back, looking up at me. Her eyes were hazy but bright.

“Jacob, can we go to bed?” she asked.

I smiled and took her hand. “Let’s go.”

We went back to my bedroom, leaving our beer bottles on the coffee table. In my room, I closed the door and pulled Maddy toward the bed, kissing her again.

She let out the sweetest moan I’d ever heard.

I eased her back on to the bed. She looked up at me, smiling. “I can’t believe I’m about to lose my virginity.”

I stopped.

Fuck.

This was the boss’s daughter, and she was a virgin.

I sighed softly and touched her cheek. “Hey… we’re both kinda drunk. Maybe we should just go to sleep.”

I moved to lie down beside her.
