“Okay, now, shoo.” Kevin shoved us out of the barn. “And for the love of every elf in the North Pole, could you please find somewhere that isn’t a car to make out? I don’t think I can handle catching you again.” He pretended to gag as he slid the barn door closed.

“My place?” Levi asked when we got back to the ATV.

“Hell yes.”

CHAPTER FIFTEEN

KRIS

The secondwe got into my truck, Levi threw off his borrowed jacket. My eyes immediately fell to his tattoos—that I now knew were so much more than that—and farther to the distracting bulge behind his zipper. My mouth watered. This time I wanted to taste him.

And so, so much more.

Like it was a magnet drawn to iron, Levi’s hand found its way to my thigh, his fingers tracing along the inner seam of my jeans as his hand stroked up and down my leg in a hypnotic rhythm that was making it difficult to focus on the road.

I wanted to touch Levi, to tease him like he was teasing me, but snow was still falling in a heavy curtain, and I didn’t want to chance taking a hand off the steering wheel, even if my fingers were itching to do it.

“You’re driving me crazy.”

“Who? Me?”

Levi’s smirk was evident in his voice, but I took my eyes off the road for a split second to see it for myself. He was just so goddamn gorgeous. His hazel eyes crinkled at the corners and were full of molten amber heat.

“Yes, you. Obviously.”

“No. If I wanted to drive you crazy, I’d do something like this.” His fingers danced over my zipper before his palm rubbed over my cock.

My answering moan echoed in the cab of the truck.

I could see Levi’s shop as I turned onto Main Street, and as we approached, Levi picked up the pace palming my dick through the denim of my jeans until I was ready to stop the car in the middle of the street and maul him.

“You’re a menace.”

“I’ve been called worse.”

I slid into a spot at the curb right in front of his shop and killed the engine. He was out in a flash, racing to the door and shoving his key into the lock while I tried to get my brain to think about literally anything other than what was about to happen.

Levi was a kraken.

With tentacles.

That I wanted to feel wrapped around me.

Inside me.

A shudder rolled through my body, and my dick jumped.

“Are you coming?” Levi was smirking again while he held the door open, waiting for me to remind my legs how to move.

Pulling myself out of my fantasies, since I was about to get the real thing, I followed Levi upstairs to his apartment. Every step reminded me of being there after Thanksgiving, and my heart hammered against my ribs in anticipation of what was to come.

The second we were through the door and it had slammed shut behind us, we were on each other, lips and bodies colliding in a fierce kiss.

Since his big reveal, there was something different in Levi’s kisses. He was no longer holding back. He kissed me like he was trying to consume me, and I had to admit the fact that he’dchosen me, that he’d trusted me with his secret, made my head spin, my heart swoop, and my dick throb.

Our lips met over and over as our tongues tangled. The need we both felt fueled every movement. My hands wandered over Levi’s body as he shoved my coat to the floor and wrapped his arms around my back, his hands finding my ass and pulling me flush to his body until our cocks rubbed together through our pants. I was still hard after all Levi’s teasing in my truck on the way here, and the friction felt too good.

I knew when I felt an insistent tugging in my hair that at least one of Levi’s tentacles had come out to play, but it wasn’t enough for me. This time, I wanted to see everything, and since Levi was no longer hiding, I could have exactly what I wanted, so I pulled back so I could see him.
