Page 18 of The Enemy's Daughter

She looked into the window, and her cheeks heated even more. “I’m a little embarrassed right now, to be honest. This was just dinner, and now—”

“It’s still dinner. Order whatever you want, my treat. I’ll pay. I love everything from the menu.”

When he’d finished wiping, she pushed her breasts back inside the bra, and fit the dress comfortably.

“I think it’s best if you go,” she said.

“No. You’re not going to get away from me that easily.”

“This isn’t something I want to talk about.” When her dress was back on properly, she turned toward him. It was much harder looking at him directly than through the mirror.

“Yes, it is.”

She folded her arms across her chest. “I don’t think we have anything to talk about. You came by. We had sex, and now it’s over.” The last thing she wanted to do was analyze it.

Glancing down Blue’s body she saw his pants were open even though they rested against his hips. “I’m not going anywhere. What just happened between us was fucking amazing.”

Heat filled her cheeks. “I don’t know what else to say.”

“Years is a long time to finally let go.”

“And I finally did, and now I don’t know what to do.” She pushed some of her hair off her face. “I can’t handle this right now. I’d rather you just left.”

He stepped closer to her. “Not happening. I’m not leaving.” He held her arms, rubbing them up and down. “Some asshole hurt you, didn’t he?”

Gritting her teeth, she stared at his chest, and let out a breath. “They. I’ve had three boyfriends, and each one didn’t like what I was like in the bedroom. It always came between us.” She breathed in deeply, which she had seemed to be doing a hell of a lot around him. Tucking her hair behind her ear, she forced a smile. “I like sex. You’d think guys liked that in a girl.”

“The guys you’ve been with are complete fucking assholes.” He placed a finger beneath her chin, and lifted her up to look at him.

“They’re not.”

“Yes, they are. They’re assholes, and they don’t have a clue what they’re missing out on. You’re amazing. You’re beautiful, and I’m not going anywhere.” He leaned down, licking her pulse. “Because I’ve got a lot of plans, and you’re not going to keep away from me now, Bella.”

He kissed her neck, and she closed her eyes, moaning. “You’re making this hard for me.”

“You’re making me hard.”

She tilted her head back. “Already?”

“I’m good to go again. I’ve got to ask you something, baby. Are you on birth control?” he asked.

“No. I’m not.”

“Fuck. I need to get us some condoms.”

She whimpered. “I don’t have any.”

Blue groaned and pulled away. “I’m going to the pharmacy to get us some condoms, and I’m going to pick up some food. I want you to get naked, and be waiting for me.”

She frowned, watching him leave. “Where do you want me?”

“Anywhere we can fuck and eat.”

He left, and her heart was pounding.

“Holy shit.” She grabbed her cell phone and dialed Rebecca.

“Hey, sweetie. It’s about time you called. I thought you were going on a date?”
