“Five. It’s an hour-long visit.”
“Are you free before that?”
“I was going to play tourist, but other than that, I am.”
“What about a drive up to Malibu?”
I don’t ever wake up in a woman’s bed and I sure as hell don’t tie myself to her for the day. Lily is the exception. I want more of this woman. I want to learn all her secrets.
Her eyes light up. “I’d love that. I didn’t expect to spend the day with you. This is a treat.”
You’rethe treat.
I kiss her pretty mouth.
Her hands tunnel into my hair as I deepen the passionate kiss.
I pull away from her before I drown in her warmth. “It’s settled.”
She nods. “I’m looking forward to discovering LA through your eyes.”
“You’re in for an unexpected day.”
“Bring it on, Mr. Grumpy Pants.”
Slap!
“What is it with you and spanking?”
“Oh, sweetheart, that wasn’t spanking. That was a tap.When I spank your ass, you’ll know. In fact, I’ll make you count.”
Her eyes widen in shock.
“That’ll be another first you can cross off your list.”
She doesn’t have a comeback.
“Come on, princess, we’re going to take a shower to wash my cum off your heavenly body. Once you’re all cleaned up, we’ll have breakfast and hit the road.”
Chapter 23
Lily
Iwent into this with my eyes wide open and kept my expectations low.
One night––and morning––of toe-curling pleasure would’ve sufficed. I’m so giddy with happiness Gage would want to spend the day with me, I’m floating.
Since Jean-Philippe was leading a double life, he kept our outings to restaurants in the area where I lived in Paris, never venturing too far. It’s only when I found out he had a wife, it all made sense. The Frenchman kept me as his dirty little secret. Being seen with a man is a new experience for me.
I might’ve only gotten my V card punched yesterday, but I’m not delusional.
My drop-dead gorgeous bodyguard turned lover is a magician capable of turning my pussy into a waterfall, but the writing is on the wall.
I’m passing through town.
My father is one of his big advertisers.
And Gage Hollingsworth is a certified bachelor.
