Johnny got in and started the car.

Gabriel tapped Johnny on the shoulder, getting the attention of the bigger man. “Why don’t you use this drive to test out music on your phone?”

Johnny nodded.

I looked at Gabriel questioningly, wondering what he meant by that, when Johnny put black earbuds in his ears.

I watched with a slight blush on my cheeks when Gabriel pressed the button nearby and the partition rolled up.

Gabriel watched me with an amused twist of his lips, and Johnny drove off as the partition closed all the way.

I licked my suddenly dry lips as Gabriel turned to me, a predatory look in his eyes.

My skin hummed, but not in fear.

No, this was in anticipation.

I didn’t bother with my seat belt, which was good, because the next thing I knew, I was being pulled into his lap. He pressed me down, lining us up so I could feel him.

My eyes rolled into the back of my head, and I let out a small moan, grinding my hips against him.

“Gabriel,” I breathed.

He grabbed a fistful of my hair and tugged on it roughly.

“Fuck. Say my name again,” he said before his lips moved to the skin on my neck, and he suckled on it.

Hell.

I felt it all the way down to my clit.

I ground harder against him, and Gabriel grabbed my hips, halting my movement.

I whimpered in protest.

“Shh,” he said against the skin on my face. He grazed his lips around mine softly, subtly—so subtly, I wondered if he actually did it or not.

I closed my eyes, my hands clutching his shirt.

He resisted, and I made a slight, frustrated noise in the back of my throat.

He chuckled lightly against me, his chest vibrating and doing funny things to my insides. I wrapped my arms around his neck and looked at him. A flash of the streetlight outside entered the car, and I caught a quick glimpse of his dark eyes on me.

He was looking at me like…

I didn’t know. All I knew was that very look sent the swarm of a million butterfly wings to flutter in an unstable beat in my stomach.

He kissed me gently.

Kissed me softly.

I sighed into his mouth and leaned toward the kiss, wanting more and wondering if that would be enough.

I needed him.

I craved him.

My arms tightened around him, afraid he might pull back.
