“And I’m still not bothered by crushes from my students. If anything, I have more ability to ignore them.” Apparently, he could lie three times better as well.
She flashed him the fakest smile. “Glad I’m easy to deal with. That’s what I’ve been working on being.”
He lowered his eyes when her truthful lies boiled his blood and brought his lust to a new abominable low. Or was it a high? Either meant dangerous. He felt everything shifting inside him and waited eagerly to see where it ended up. There was no place it could settle he wouldn’t want. Right now, he wanted to talk more about this crush. “But I am honored to have been crushed on by you.”
“Ah,” she said, nodding, still breathless and wanting to hide. “It can bea compliment.”
“How is your boyfriend situation?”
Brief confusion then, “Oh. Non-existent still.”
“So, Patrick didn’t work out?”
“Pffft, God no. He was way too slow for me.”
“And what do you want him hurrying with?”
“Anything! He’s sweet as can be but I knew when he was content to spend two whole hours creating shapes out of the clouds that it wasn’t going to work.”
Nidev had to chuckle. “That’s surely a five-minute task.”
“Is it even a task?” she laughed. “It was torture. And he stayed like five feet from me. I don’t think he even knows what bases are with girls.”
“So, you have a game plan for that?”
She regarded him. “For what?”
“Bases. What’s the perfect play a guy can make? Holding hands, base one. Kissing base two? What’s a home run for you? Or a foul ball?”
She eyed him suspiciously. “Are you mocking me? I can’t tell.”
“No, I’m genuinely curious and ignorant on these matters as you now know.”
Her exuberant laugh cleared the way. “Holding hands, yes, first base. Second base, a kiss. Third base…” she squinted up. “A confession.”
“A confession?”
Slow, steady nod. “Declaring his intention.”
“And then?”
“And then…” She threw up her hands. “No clue! Haven’t made it to that. Obviously, I’m not a virgin but I’ve never done the whole date scene.”
His demons exploded out of their cage and gnawed on the head of his dick at that announcement. Thankfully, the propped position of his leg hid his massive hard on. “Well, don’t brag, I haven’t been to any bases,” he said, bringing her beautiful laugh.
“Awww, you’re so innocent,” she teased. “Probably why I felt safe to have a crush on you. That whole celibacy thing made me brave I think.”
“I’m surprised the rumor about the Kings marrying hasn’t circulated yet.”
He watched her shock like a pervert watching sick porn. “You’re getting married?”
Getting singled out felt like his favorite candy. “That’s the plan.”
Her mouth remained in that oval as he mentally licked and sucked every inch of it. “The Kings agreed to this?”
“Rukem has already taken a wife. Vex is currently taking one. Lore is a day away from taking one.”
“King Lore?” she gasped. “Myteacher?”
