“It sure has.”

“Listen—”

“Hey—”

We both begin talking at the same time.

“You first, Harps.”

“Um, well, I was just thinking about what happened this morning.” My cheeks heat and I can’t quite look him in theeyes. “And again this afternoon. I’m not sure it’s a good idea for us to keep doing that.” Although my body is saying something completely different as he sits next to me on the bed. The man smells so good and radiates a warmth that I crave.

“You’re probably right.”

He uses one finger to tilt my face to look up at his, so I’m no longer able to avoid eye contact. “Yeah.”I am a master of words.

“But there’s a problem, sweetheart.”

“What?” My voice is barely above a whisper and our lips are almost touching. This conversation isn’t going exactly like I thought it would.

“I can’t stop thinking about what your mouth feels like against mine. What it would be like to taste other parts of your gorgeous body and just how much I want to get you naked and underneath me.”

Fuck.

I’m not sure how any woman is supposed to walk away from that. I don’t think my legs would support me at the moment if I tried to stand, he’s turned my whole body to jelly. The butterflies in my tummy are doing a full-on ballet and all I can think is that I want all of that too— damn the consequences.

My head tells me that sleeping with Miles is a mistake, but my heart knows that if I don’t, I will always wonder—what if?I’m someone who always follows my head, since following my heart can only lead to pain, but this time… I’m going to follow my heart.

Miles watches me with intense eyes. Not moving toward or away from me. This is my decision, and he isn’t pressuring me one way or the other. Which also helps me know that I’m making the right decision.

I slowly move toward him and take the beer from his hands. I lean past him and put both his beer and my wine glass, which I’ve barely had two sips from, on the table beside the bed. Mybreasts brush along his arms and we both suck in a breath. That movement releases a floodgate of passion between the two of us and suddenly I’m in his arms as he stands.

“Where are we going?” I laugh and wrap my arms around his neck.

“Too many boxes and stuff in here. I need room. I’m taking you to my bed,” he growls out, sounding a little like a caveman.

Room? What’s he planning on doing to me that he needs more room than the bed’s surface? A flush runs through my whole body and my panties, which were already wet, are now drenched. I may have bitten off more than I can chew.

Miles gently tosses me into the center of his bed and I lightly bounce. His bed is huge and covered in the softest dove-grey duvet. If I wasn’t so turned on, I could see myself falling right to sleep curled up in this blanket. But no way that’s going to happen now, not when Miles is stripping for me at the side of the bed. I don’t want to even blink, so I don’t miss anything.

He takes off his shirt, revealing his toned and ripped upper body, and then he slowly lowers his pants. I saw him in his boxer briefs this morning, but this is different. His long, hard dick is poking out the top, unable to be contained by the fabric. I reach my hand out to touch him, but quickly pull it back.

“You can touch me, sweetheart. I wish to fuck you would,” he groans.

My hand connects with the hard length of him. My hand slides up and down his hard cock through the cotton fabric of his boxer briefs.

“Harper…” he moans. “Touch me.”

I pull him closer with my hands on his ass, feeling braver with every moan from his lips. Slowly and with great care, I lower the waistband of his underwear. My face is so close to his magnificent cock that it almost brushes my lips when it’s released from its prison. Feeling just a little bit bratty, I slightlystick out my tongue and run it along the head of his penis and then return to taking his boxer briefs off with a laugh.

“Oh, is that how it’s going to be?” he asks with a menacing smile.

Chapter 12

Miles

The flickof her tongue on my dick almost made me come. I didn’t expect that kind of teasing from Harper, but I am here for it. Now, it’s my turn to explore what I’ve only had a glimpse of.

I lean across her body as she lies on my bed. “Sit up, sweetness.” She immediately does as I ask, and I pull her shirt over her head. Her breasts are still hidden behind a beautiful white lace bra. I dip my head and latch onto one of her rosy nipples through the lace, eliciting a moan from Harper.
