I hesitated, but growing a pair of balls, I raised my arms and wrappedthem around her small body, holding her close to me. Sheseemedto nuzzle further against my chest, and contentment swept through me.
This was where she belonged.
In my arms.
Did she feel it too?
Unable to resist, I buried my nose in the top of Cora’s hair and took adeep inhale.
Big fucking mistake.
Her luscious scent filtered through every part of me before headingsouth to my cock. There was no way she wouldn’t be able to feel it throbbing.
And yet, she didn’t move away.
Reminding myselfthatI needed to have more control over my cockand my actions, I pulled back, removing my arms from around Cora’s waist, and doing my best to ignore the disappointed lookthatcrept over her face.
“You should get some more sleep,”I said, needing to put somedistance between us before I did something stupid.
Like picking her up and carrying her to my room to spend the rest ofthe night memorizing every inch of her mouthwatering body.
“Yeah, you’re right,”she replied, her cheeks rosy, and once again sheavoided my eyes.
“Will you be okay?”
“I think so,”she said, giving me a small smile. But she still didn’tmove to go into her room, and I couldn’t stop my gaze from drifting to her rosy lips.
I sucked in a breath.“Goodnight, baby girl,”I said, my voice shaky.Reluctantly, I took a step back.
“Goodnight, Fox,”she replied, following my action of taking a stepback into her room.
She met my gaze, and for a few heated seconds, neither of usdared blink and risk severing the connection before she closedthe door.
I waited a solid five minutes before I went back to my room. Waitingfor her to have another nightmare? Waiting to see if she came out and asked if she could sleep next to me? Waiting to see if she opened the door and threw herself into my arms again?
I didn’t know.
But when I accepted she wasn’t going to open the door again, Ibegrudgingly trudged into my own room and laid down on the bed, my balls aching with a need for release, and the memory of Cora’s intoxicating scent seared into my brain.
Chapter 8
Cora
Ididn’t go back to sleep.
I couldn’t.
I couldn’t get Fox out of my head.
And if I thought there was a smidgeon of a chancethatI could denymy attraction to him, it was blown out of the water when I opened my door and found him standing there.
Shirtless.
In just his sweats.
Don’t get me wrong, I’d been attracted to boys before.Boys, not menlike Fox, but the attraction I’d felt in the past wasnothingcompared to what was running through my veins after spending the evening with him.
I’d never felt so adored in all mylife.
