He reaches out to grab me when I lift my dress off the floor, and I fall onto the bed next to him. Staring down at me, he licks his lips and all I can think of is how talented he is with that mouth in so many ways.

“Seriously, come back to bed. We have enough time to have sex one or two more times. Then you can come back here tonight, and we’ll pick up where we left off.”

I love that he’s making plans for us to get together that night, but there’s no way I can have sex with him even one more time and still make it home to get freshened up and get to the studio by nine. He does make it hard to say no to him, though.

“Alex, we can’t. I want to, but we can’t.”

Taking my hand, he presses it against the sheet barely covering his erection. “Feel that. I’m ready to go now, and I bet I can get you ready in no time.”

Before he can seduce me into staying by showing me his hard cock, I scramble to my feet and tug my dress over my head. This man is next to impossible to say no to.

“That doesn’t look like you getting back into this bed,” he says in a disappointed voice.

Finally dressed, I lean over and kiss him on that beautiful mouth of his. “I’m sorry. Can I take a rain check?”

Stuffing his hand into my hair, he pulls me down to kiss me hard, snaking his tongue into my mouth to tease me with what he wants to do again to my pussy. “Come back tonight. I’ll make you dinner again, and then we can spend all night and all day tomorrow in bed since we don’t have to be there all weekend.”

How could a woman in her right mind say no to an offer like that coming from a man as beautiful and sexy as Alex? I’m not strong enough to say no, and the truth is, I don’t want to. I’d stay in this bed having sex with him all day today if we could.

“Okay. I’ll come over right after we get finished with the show today. I just need to stop over at my place because I wasn’t very prepared last night.”

Alex’s eyebrows climb into his forehead in a look of surprise. “So you weren’t planning on sleeping with me? I think my ego is bruised hearing that.”

“Do women usually sleep with you so quickly?” I ask, unsure if I want to know the answer.

A sheepish expression comes over him. “Well, not to brag, but yeah. Why shouldn’t people have a good time if they enjoy one another’s company?”

He’s so confident about his sexuality that his answer doesn’t offend me. Anyone else in the world could say that and I’d think he was a complete jackass.

But not Alex. I imagine there are many women like me too. He has a charm that can’t be denied.

Just then, the memory of that beautiful woman from last night pops up in my brain. “I saw a gorgeous blonde with the longest legs I’ve ever seen in your hallway when I was waiting foryou to answer the door. She looked at your apartment strangely. Is she an ex of yours?”

He thinks for a moment and then shakes his head. “I don’t think so. I’m flattered that you think I’ve slept with all the women in my building, though.”

“I didn’t think that. I just wondered why she looked at your door oddly. That’s all.”

“Let’s put it this way. If I liked her and she liked me, then we might sleep together. I like having a good time, and one of my favorite good times is sleeping with a beautiful woman. I’m a hedonist and proud of it. Life is for living, and I try to squeeze the most enjoyment out of it.”

Jealousy spikes inside me, and I roll out of his hold to stand up next to the bed. “So Mr. Hedonist, does that mean you have a harem of women like me available at any time?”

Shaking his head, he smiles. “No. I’ve never been a one-woman man, but I don’t make a habit of having a lot of women around if I’m seeing someone I really like. I really like you, Kat, so that means it’s only you right now.”

I need to get out of this bedroom before I say something stupid, so I give him a peck on the cheek and lean down to grab my shoes. “Good to know. Any idea what you’re making us tonight?”

His gaze follows me as I walk around the bed to leave. “I don’t know, but you’ll love it, don’t worry.”

That streak of confidence a mile wide in him stops me as I open the door. Looking back at him, I take in one last eyeful of how gorgeous he looks there naked in bed after our lovemaking.

“Are you always this sure of yourself?”

“Only with two things. Food and fucking. Everything else in life is a crapshoot, to be honest.”

“I’m going, but remember we’re supposed to hate each other. So no giving me those eyes that made me want to sleep with you.”

Alex throws his head back in laughter. “I promise I won’t give you those eyes if you promise you won’t look at me like you did during dinner last night.”

“Well, since I don’t know what that means, maybe I won’t look at you at all today. How’s that sound?” I say, teasing him.
