“So, tell me what sorts of things happen to you when you’re around me,” he said, putting me on the spot.
I wasn’t the kind of person who wore her heart on her sleeve. Preston had taken charge of the relationship from the start and I’d merely gone along. He and I had never had a friendship. I knew he’d wanted a romantic relationship right from the start.
Since I hadn’t known what I wanted at all, I let him lead me the way he wanted to. But Baldwyn and I had something completely different from what Preston and I’d had. Baldwyn wasn’t going to lead me anywhere. Wherever we went, we’d go together, both of us walking side by side. I could see that now.
And what I saw was something I liked. So, I was honest with him about the things I felt when I was around him. “Sometimes I get a little dizzy when you touch me. My tummy feels like a swarm of butterflies lives there, especially when you smile at me. My knees get weak when you put your arm around me. And my legs turn to jelly when you hug me. My heart—well, that thing beats crazy fast when I first see you each day. My palms begin to itch for some reason, and I sigh as if on cue.”
My words brought a humongous smile to his face. “Well, you know what I think?”
“I’ve got an idea, but please tell me what you think.” I held my breath.
“I think all those physical clues mean the same thing to both of us.” Sliding his hands up my arms, he ended with them cupping my face. “I think you feel love for me, and I know I feel love for you, baby.”
“Love,” I whispered as my heart stopped. “You love me?” The strangest, most wonderful sensation spread through me like liquid warmth.
A slow nod. “Do you love me?”
“I do.” I’d known it for certain last night when he’d put physical attraction to the side to sleep beside me, hold me, and make me feel safe. “I’ve never had this feeling before. It’s never felt so right to be with anyone the way it feels when I’m with you.”
Chapter Fifteen
Baldwyn
Working in the engineers’ offices, I’d kept my eyes on Sloan all day long. All day we exchanged sexy smiles, hair flips, and the occasional blown kiss from across the room. I’d never done anything like that in my life. I was a grown ass man who found enjoyment in playing footsie with the woman I loved.
“Quitting time,” I informed Sloan as I snuck up behind her.
She spun around, her eyes wide, lips slightly parted, and cheeks red with what I hoped was arousal. “Already?”
Raising a brow, I knew she was teasing me. “We can stay here longer if you want.”
Slipping her hand into mine, she winked at me. “Only if you want to.”
I couldn’t wait to get her back home. “I think you know what I want to do.” I tickled the palm of her hand with my middle finger just to make sure she knew what I meant.
“Well, if I had any doubts about that, you just made them vanish into thin air.” We walked out the door hand in hand while the people we worked with grinned knowingly.
“About time,” my brother Warren said as we passed him.
“Right?” Sloan said, surprising me. She ran her arm around my waist, leaning into me. “I wasn’t sure how many hints I’d have to drop before he got the message.”
“Me?” Taken aback, I only figured out she was kidding when she giggled like a schoolgirl. “So, you like to tease, huh?” I hoped she wasn’t about to tease me in other ways too. I’d always had a smoldering ember for her. Now that we’d been open with our feelings, I was on fire.
As we got to my truck, I opened the driver’s side door, letting her climb in. She scooted to the middle seat so she could sit right next to me. “I feel so cute, sitting like this.”
“You look cute as hell.” I got in then put my arm around her, kissing her cheek before I put on my seatbelt and sped away.
We’d yet to share a real kiss, preferring to let the anticipation make our first time the best ever. My lips ached to touch her, and so did the rest of me. And hers must’ve ached too as she sighed heavily as she ran her hand along my thigh. “Should we eat before going home?”
I was hungry for only one thing. But I wasn’t the kind of man who ignored a hungry woman’s request. “Sure, if you want.”
“K.” She took off her seatbelt and the next thing I knew, my jeans were undone, my cock free, and she was facedown, her tongue running over the head of my pulsating cock as her hands moved up and down the ever-growing shaft. “I’m starving—but only for you, babe.”
“Holy shit!” I gasped as she put her mouth over my hard dick and went down on me while I drove through downtown traffic. “Thank God this truck is up higher than the rest of the cars on the road, or they’d get a hell of a show.”
Moaning as she sucked me off, it was clear that Sloan did not give a shit if anyone saw us or not. The traffic was insane, as usual, and the attention she gave me had me wondering if I was fit to be driving. So, I purposely slowed to a crawl to get stuck at the back of a long line at a notoriously slow traffic light. Lying my head back on the headrest, I finally fell into the moment with her.
Kissing along the underside of my shaft, she whispered, “I’ve never done this before.”
