Pasco gripped her hand and held her fingers still. She slowly turned her head to look at him. ‘You don’t like that?’

He half grimaced, half smiled. ‘I like it far too much and I’m trying my damnedest not to move your hand higher.’

There was no doubt about what he wanted. His face was flushed and his eyes blazed with desire. She dropped her eyes to his lap and if she’d had any doubt, the sight of his erection tenting his trousers would’ve filled her in.

‘You want me,’ she murmured, half to herself and half to him.

‘Very damn much,’ Pasco growled, his fingers squeezing hers. ‘I’ve never been one for making love in cramped cars in public areas, but you make me lose my mind.’

Heat and lust sparked through her at his growly words, coated in frustration. He was such a man and knowing he wanted her thrilled her to her core. She felt powerful and feminine and confident and...

Alive. Her heart was racing and her lungs were heaving. And that was just from a hot-as-lava kiss. If he made love to her, she might just melt into a puddle.

It was a chance she was willing to take. Oh, there were a million reasons why this was a bad idea, and tomorrow she’d probably regret her recklessness but right now? Right now she wanted more, she wanted everything he could give her.

Aisha turned in her seat to look at his handsome profile, and her heart skipped a beat. ‘You have a house around here, right?’

His head whipped around to look at her, hope sparking in his eyes. ‘My apartment in Fresnaye is about ten minutes from here if I drive fast.’

‘Floor it, Pas.’

He gently gripped her jaw with his big hand and her eyes slammed into his. ‘If I take you home, you will be naked ten seconds after I get you in my front door, sweetheart.’

She gripped his strong wrist and sent him what she hoped was a seductive smile. ‘Well, I hope so. I wasn’t asking you to take me home to play Scrabble.’

Pasco dropped a hard, open-mouthed kiss on her lips before pulling back and hitting the button to fire up his powerful engine. Backing out of the parking space, he skilfully and quickly navigated the still busy streets to the luxurious suburb of Fresnaye.

He made it to his place in seven minutes.
