“Regret being with you? I could never regret having sex with you.”
She rolls her eyes. “Easily said.”
I slam my hands against the wall. “No, it’s not easy. Do you have any clue how fucking hard I am right now? Just because you’re here and I can smell you. Or how about how I lay in bed every night and replay what we did in the office atBootleggerwith my cock in my hand.”
Her eyes flare. “You do?”
“You’re the sexiest woman I’ve ever known. The moment I laid eyes on you several months ago, I was a goner.”
I shut up before I confess my love to her. I don’t love her. Not yet. But I’m pretty fucking close.
“I came here to seduce you.”
My cock pulses against my zipper at her confession. It urges me to strip her. To shove it deep inside her.
I inhale a deep breath. If Harper and I are finally having sex, it won’t be fast and furious. Not if I can help it.
“And now? Do you still want to seduce me?”
“I suck at seduction.”
“You’re not doing a bad job.” I press my hard length against her stomach and she gasps.
“This is ridiculous. I read enough romance books. I should know how to seduce a man. Maybe I should stop reading paranormal romances. The werewolf takes one look at a woman and knows she’s his mate. And boom! They’re banging. And the Hallmark movies always end with a kiss. There’s no seduction happening. I can’t learn from them.”
I tuck a strand of hair behind her ear. “I always knew you were a secret romantic.”
“You did not.”
“You bought a fancy bottle of champagne for Blossom and Jaxon when they announced their love for each other.”
She sighs. “I’m happy for them.”
“Romantic.”
She glares at me. “You better not tell anyone I’m a romantic.”
“I won’t tell anyone anything. Not how you’re a romantic.” I kiss her neck and she tilts to offer me better access. “Not how you drive me crazy.” I nibble her ear. “Not how you scream for me when you come.”
She grasps my t-shirt. “Make me scream, Kai.”
“Are you sure?”
She nods.
“Say the words, Slugger.”
“I’m sure.”
“I’m sure I want you, sexy demon, to make me scream.”
She barks out a laugh. “Sexy demon?”
“I guess I need to prove to you what a sexy demon I am.” I throw her over my shoulder.
“Eek!” she squeals.
I slap her ass. “Stay steady or I’ll drop you.”
