“I was wondering what took you so long to reply.” I sounded much more confident than I felt.

“I had to walk away from everyone. Fucking. Hell. Haley. Are you trying to kill me?” His voice sounded pained.

“No. Personally, I like you. Killing you would do me no good.”

He groaned, and I imagined him pacing with a hand threaded through his hair. “Babe. That picture.”

“Did you like it? I thought maybe a different blue would do the trick.” I smiled at myself in the mirror.

“I need to see you. Hold on.” My phone beeped, and I pulled it away from my ear to accept the video call. Asher appeared in my screen with heat-filled, wild eyes. “Show me.” I clenched my thighs together at the roughness in his voice.

“What do you want to see?” I asked keeping the phone purposefully trained on my face. I could tell by the striped, purple shower curtain he locked himself in Mason’s basement bathroom.

Away from everyone.

“Everything. Show me everything.”

Slowly I angled the phone down so that he could see my bra-covered chest.

“More.” He barked, and I moved my arm down until he could see the front of my thong, slowly twisting my hips, so he could get a look at my ass. “Haley.”

I brought the phone back up to my face, not missing the way he licked his lips or the way my skin had flushed pink. “What do you think?”

“I need you set the phone down so that I can see all of you,” he issued the demand. It was sexy. I sat the phone down on the counter, propping it up against the mirror and stepped back. “Take off your bra.” The sound of his zipper filled the quiet.

“Are you?” I asked slightly shocked, because I definitely didn’t envision this after sending that picture.

“I’m going to jack myself while you undress. It’s not going to take long,” he growled, his voice low. His chest heaved with each deep breath.

Pride filled my chest at the fact I could get him that worked up. That heated. Thatneedy.“You’re going to be a good girl and do exactly like I tell you.” Desire shot through my body.

I nodded as I watched him lose himself. “Lose your panties. Slowly.” I slid my hands down my sides until my thumbs hooked on the inside of my thong and slowly inched it down. The angle caused my arms to push my boobs together and I loved the way Asher’s pupils flared. Letting the underwear fall to the floor, I stood, fully naked for his pleasure.

He groaned again and his hand worked faster. “Pinch your nipples.” I slid one hand up to move my hair out of the way while the other moved over my breast with a feather light touch. Heat pooled between my thighs following his commands.

Asher tossed his head back, his hair falling as he came. My name was a growl on his lips. I itched to slide my fingers lower and get myself there as well.

I should’ve brought my vibrator with me.

His chest heaved as he devoured me with his eyes. “Fuck. I can’t get enough of you even when your states away.” He shook his head like he couldn’t believe what just happened.

“You just jacked off in your brother’s basement.” I giggled, fucking giggled, as I picked my phone back up.

“It’s your fault for sending me that picture. I’m pretty sure Mason think’s I’m down here taking a shit with how fast I bolted down the stairs. What’s worse is that mom and dad are upstairs too. It’s like I’m a damn teenager again, jacking off in my room.”

“I love that I have that effect on you.” I was this close to telling him that I loved him, but I hadn’t said it yet and I didn’t want the first time to be over the phone.

“I can’t wait until you get home.”

“Me either, babe. Me either.”

CHAPTER NINETEEN

ASHER

I pulledinto Sheila and Jim’s house Saturday morning. We were doing brunch and then they were keeping Phoenix for the night so I could jump Haley as soon as she stepped foot through the front door. I missed the hell out of Hales and we needed a little time to ourselves.

Time where we didn’t need to worry about keeping our voices down, because I planned on making her scream my name.
