He pulls me into a tight hug.
Shakes.
Stills.
Curses.
Oh, no. He didn’t.
He lifts me off him and sets me on my feet. Cursing a blue streak as he sinks to his knees and rolls me back across the blanket.

He grunts. “You didn’t climax.”
I shrug. “That comes with practice. Next time, I’ll teach you how.”
“Jaysus, Mary, and Joseph. Teach me? That’s grand.”

“Seems that way.”
“Aside from that night with me?”
He snorts in response.
“No wonder—”
“No feckin’ wonder.”
I bite my lip, my curiosity stoked. “And relationships? Dating? A girlfriend?”
“I don’t do relationships.”
I sit up so I can stare down at him. “You’ve never had a girlfriend.”
