“What’s that?”
He looks down.“It’s a trivia game.”
I tilt my head, a smile tugging my lips.“Seriously?You want to play trivia?”
“Yeah.”He meets my eyes and his are glinting.He sets the box on my coffee table and opens it.
I can’t believe this.I’m about to have a stroke, and he wants to play trivia.
He picks up a card.“Okay.What arouses men more than any other scent in the world?Your choices are: a.lavender; b.lilies; c.woodsmoke; d.beer.”
I choke on a laugh.“The scent of beer is arousing?”
He grins.“Is that your answer?”
“No, I’ll say lavender.”
“Correct.”
He sets the card down, picks up another and hands it to me.“Your turn.”
“Wait.How does this game work?”
“Just follow along.”
Smiling, I say, “Okay.”I read the card.“What arouses Jax more than any other scent in the world?”I blink and look up at him.“You?”
“Yes.”
I keep reading his choices.“A.Molly’s grapefruit perfume.”I pause.What is this?“B.Molly’s grapefruit lotion; c.Molly’s grapefruit body wash; d.Molly.”My insides soften and warm as I meet his eyes.
“All of the above,” he says softly.
I swipe a hand under my nose.I think I see where this is going and it’s amazing.
He picks up a card.“What chemical is responsible for making my heart race when I see you?A.dopamine; b.norepinephrine; c.adrenalin.”
My throat is squeezing up.“Adrenalin.”
“That’s right.”
“Your heart races when you see me?”
“Yes.”He holds my gaze steadily.
“Me too,” I whisper.
After a protracted silence, he says in a gruff voice, “Your turn.”
“Oh.Right.”I take the card he hands me.“Which bonding chemical is released in my brain when you make me orgasm?”I lower the card.“Where did you get this game?”
“Never mind that.”
I keep reading.“A.estrogen; b.oxytocin; c.vasopressin.”
“Oxytocin.”
“Yes.”
