“That wasn’t the deal. The deal was that when I win, you take these lace things off and hand them to me.”

“Here? You want me to take my panties off at the table?” My mind can’t comprehend what he’s saying. People will see. We already used our one miracle on the fingering that just occurred under the table, going unnoticed.

“Mmhmm. Now. Hand them to me.”

Holy shit on a biscuit. There are layers to this man. All that sweet stuff is just the surface layer. The more I dig, the darker he gets.Why do I like it? Definitely learning some things about Vaughn that Vaughn was previously unaware of.

Running my hand up my skirt on the side most shielded by Eli’s body, I lift up just enough so that I can slip the panties off my ass. From there, it’s a pretty simple glide to the floor. Before I can bend down to get them, Eli leans in to kiss my arm and slips the panties off my heel. He wads them up in his fist, bringing them to his face while he slips the fingers he used to finger fuck me into his mouth. He’s tasting me on his fingers and smelling me on the panties.The fuck....do I feel about this?Well, I have a strong desire to drop to my knees and see if that steel rod in his pants will fit in my mouth, so that’s a pretty decent indicator of how I feel about this.

Cool the hell down, Vaughn.I’m readying to climb this man and that just can’t happen.

Clearing my throat, I attempt speech. “Bathroom.” The word is barely even a word as I say it.

“Hmmm?”

Try this again. Clearing my throat a second time, “Bathroom. I need to go to the bathroom.”

“Good idea.”

Uhh okay.His hands give my hip and thigh one good squeeze before releasing me so I can stand.

Something about the moment still feels charged as I walk on unsteady legs toward the bathroom.

Chapter 20

Vaughn

Two women stand at the sinks inside the bathroom, reapplying their makeup. Acknowledging them with a smile, I continue on into the stall furthest from where they’re standing.

The swinging entry door opens, and the women let out loud gasps. Something clacks to the floor as I’m shutting the stall door, and I’m curious what just happened, but not enough to investigate. Just as I’m about to turn the lock on the stall door, it’s pushed inward. Fear grips me, and I realize the women at the sink have gone eerily quiet. Whoever came into the bathroom, doesn’t belong.

Putting all my strength into the door is a useless endeavor as the door continues to open.

“Pretty strong for a little devil.”

Eli.That’s Eli’s deep, gruff voice.

I remove my hands, which were doing little in defense of my position anyway, from the door and allow Eli into the stall with me. I’m speechless.What is he doing in here?My eyes are wide with surprise, and my mouth is hanging open.

“I think you’re in the wrong place.”

Eli looks left to right as though he’s examining the small space to see if I’m correct. He turns the lock on the door and brings his gaze back to mine.

“Nope. Here you are.”

“You’re looking for me? I said I was going to the bathroom.”

“Mmhhmm. With that look in your eye. I can take a hint.”

“A hint? Well, give me one. What are you doing in here?”

His smile is devious. No dimples in sight.No way. He’s not thinking what I think he’s....my thoughts trail off as Eli leans into me, pressing me against the stall barrier and running his calloused fingers feather light up my thigh.

“Whoa there, Silver.” My words are a harsh whisper. Unless they’re ninja’s, those women never left the bathroom. They’re still in here....listening. “This is a public restroom. Are you nuts?”

“Silver? Does this make you the Lone Ranger?”

One of his hands has now reached my bare ass, and the other hand is between my legs. His fingers glide softly across my clit. Too softly, before swirling around my entrance. My head falls back, hitting the wall behind me as my thoughts smash into one another and crumble inside my head. I can’t think when he’s this close. Touching me and making me feel...ah...everything.
