“Really good.I’ve never come that hard in my life. I had no idea an orgasm couldbe that strong. I mean, I know I don’t have any experience with it,but Gracie says that it’s actually a lot harder for a woman to comefrom being eaten out or touched by a guy, then most women think.She says it’s not like a romance novel where the guy just looks ata woman and she practically has an orgasm right then and there. Shesays most women end up faking because they’re too shy to tell theirpartner exactly what they want, or their partner isn’t open towatching and learning what she likes.”

She slid herarm around his waist and squeezed him briefly. “I wasn’t actuallyexpecting to come from oral sex even though you made me come lastnight with your hand. I can’t believe I did. I can’t wait to tellGracie that I…”

Her eyeswidened. “I mean… not that I’m a gossip about my sexual habits. Ofcourse, I won’t tell Gracie or anyone else about this. I know it’sprivate and -”

She’d neverbeen so happy in her life when Connor stopped her babbling with akiss.

He pulled backand grinned at her. “One – Grace is obviously not sleeping with theright guys, and two - do you always talk non-stop after anorgasm?”

“I think weestablished that I’ve never had an orgasm like that before.”

“You’rewelcome,” he said with an adorable grin.

She returnedhis smile, cupping his face and staring up at him as he studiedher. When he shifted a little, she glanced down at his knee. “Areyou okay? Do you need to move positions?”

“Nope, I’mgood.” He put his arm around her and pulled her close until herbreasts were pressed against his chest and their lower bodies weretouching.

“Are you sure?We don’t have to, um, cuddle or anything,” she said even though sheabsolutely wanted to cuddle.

He scowled alittle. “Just because I’m not into PDAs doesn’t mean I don’t liketo,” he paused, “cuddle, in private. I’m not completelycold.”

Yikes, she’ddefinitely hit a nerve.

“I know you’renot,” she said. “I just don’t want to make you uncomfortable.”

“You’re not,”he bit out.

He closed hiseyes and took a deep breath. “Sorry. I shouldn’t have snapped.”

“It’s fine,”she said.

He took anotherdeep breath. “I’ve been called cold and distant in the past and I’ma little sensitive about it.”

She cupped hisface. “I don’t think you’re cold or distant.”

“No?” Hestudied her closely. “You’re not just saying that?”

She shook herhead, suddenly certain that whatever she said next would be veryimportant to him. “No, I don’t. You come across as a little…guardedsometimes, but that was mostly when I first met you. You’re notcold, Connor. I don’t even think you’re distant. And,” she gave hima teasing grin, “you’re not nearly as anti PDA as you think youare.”

A small smileplayed at his lips. “I think that’s a relatively new thing. Beforeyou, I really didn’t do any PDAs.”

“Why am Idifferent?” She asked.

“I’m activelytrying to make someone jealous for you, remember?” he said.

Stupidly, hurtflooded through her. Of course, Connor was only affectionatebecause he was playing a part. She shouldn’t be upset by that. It’swhat she asked him to do.

So why was shehurt? Why did she wish he was affectionate because he wanted to be?Because he liked touching her and holding her?

He squeezed herwaist. “Sorry, I’m not being completely honest.”

“You’renot?”

“No. I liketouching you, Kira. I like it a lot.”

“I like ittoo,” she whispered.

He brushed herhair back from her face and pressed a kiss against her mouth.“Good.”
