Dressed in a tempting little baby pink dress and heels, she was the defining line between adorable and absolutely fucking sexy.
She noticed my stare and a small blush rose to her cheeks as I wasn’t exactly discreet about how beautiful I thought she was.
I beckoned her over with my finger, and she bit her lip as she approached me. Once she was within arm’s reach, I pulled her over to me by the waist, and she giggled as I peppered her neck with small kisses of affection.
She pulled away after a moment and smiled. “I take it that I took your breath away,” she said boastfully, and I smirked.
“Quite literally… you look amazing, Princess.”
She smiled timidly as her blush continued to rise, and I laughed as I turned her around, backing her against the glass door as I looked down at her.
“You can’t go all shy around me now, Princess. We were just having fun… weren’t we?”
She didn’t say anything but nodded slowly as she gazed up at me innocently. Deciding to tease her even further, my hand caressed her slightly red-tipped ears from her blushing as I trailed my fingers down her cheek to her neck and right above her delicious neckline.
“We should get going, but eventually…I will find out just how far this little blush of yours will travel.”
She looked at a loss for words, and before she had a chance to think any longer, I leaned over and kissed her lips as my hand grabbed her neck.
Jerking her closer to me, she was caught by surprise, but eventually, her hands found their way up my chest, and she pulled me closer by my shirt, even trying to go on the tips of her toes in her heels. Placing my hands on her waist, I pulled herflush against me, and as I began to trail my hand down her lower back, we heard someone clear their throat.
“Mr. Lockwood, Ms. Russel... The car is waiting.”
I pulled away from Delilah, who surely looked embarrassed, and I groaned.
“How long have you been there, Fuller?” I asked.
He deflected the question as he spoke again. “I’ll be waiting by the car.”
I rolled my eyes. “Sure you will.”
His footsteps left the room, and Delilah giggled cheekily as she grabbed my hand and pulled me along as she walked to the door.
“As embarrassing as that was, we needed it because you didn’t seem ready to leave the room just yet,” she said jokingly.
I kept silent as I shrugged internally. She wasn’t entirely wrong.
Taking in her attire again, I noticed how much her light pink dress and heels were a complete contrast to my black suit. Looking down at my hand, my lip twitched as it wanted to go into a smile.She’s wearing my bracelet.She wore it every day, but seeing it always gave me the same feeling I got when I first saw it on her.
When we arrived at the car, I opened the door for her. Once we were situated inside, she looked over to me. “What’s first on the agenda?” she asked, and I sighed.
“If you must know, we will be going to dinner at one of the best restaurants in town, of course, and I had the idea to do some evening sightseeing. My other plan involved visiting a vineyard for a bit of wine tasting.”
She beamed happily as she replied, “Looks like we just passed the legal drinking age.”
Placing my hand under her chin, I bit my lip as she gazed up at me. “The only problem I have is that you get a bit irresponsible with drinking… but you’ll be a good girl tonight for me, won’tyou?” I questioned her, and she seemed at a loss for words. Her lips parted slightly as I held back a groan as I had the urge to kiss them, suck them, bite them.
She stared at me for a moment before winking as she replied, “Maybe.” She bit her lip with a smile, and I chuckled, looking away. She was definitely something else, my little princess.
We reached our first destination, and I escorted her to our rooftop table. Pulling her chair out for her, she thanked me as she took a seat. I took my seat as well and held my hand out across the table for her to place hers in. Once she did, I used my thumb to rub the back of her hand. She sighed, looking over the edge at the ocean.
“It’s beautiful, Archer,” she said softly, and I nodded as my eyes remained on her.
“Indeed, it is…”
The server walked over, and I put in an order for both of us. As he walked away, she gave me a look.
“You know I can order for myself, right?” she asked, and I nodded.
