"You're blushing," Nolen teased. "Care to share with the class what's on your mind?"
Of course he would call me out on it, and why was that so sexy? This was supposed to just be dinner, and somehow it was being turned upside down.
"No, I don't want to share." I quickly took another bite of my taco, but now it didn't taste as good because I was too busy thinking about how other things would taste in my mouth.
Gah! What was wrong with me?
Oh that was right. Five years without sex.
"I think you do." Nolen smirked. "I think you're just too scared to."
Well, if that wasn't throwing down the gauntlet, I didn't know what was. Damn the man.
"Fine." I relented. "I was thinking about the ways you could torture it out of me. Is that what you wanted to hear?"
Nolen wiped his mouth with a napkin, propping his face up with his chin on his fist. "I'm going to need you to tell me, in great detail, exactly what you had in mind."
OH. MY. GOD.
There was no way I could tell him what I was thinking. I didn't even know if I could admit it to myself.
"I'm not sure I can do that."
"You absolutely can and will." Nolen sounded very confident in that regard.
"And why's that?"
"Because I want to make your every wish come true, and I can't do that if I don't know what's going on in your mind." Hishusky voice made me shiver. It also made me want to confess every desire I'd ever had.
I took a big gulp of air and hoped what I said next came out sexy and not the least bit weird.
"Well, I was thinking about you tying me to my bed with either your belt or maybe a scarf. Something I wouldn't be able to get out of easily."
"Are you naked in this scenario, or am I peeling you out of your panties with my teeth?"
Holy hotness.
"Definitely naked but I could be easily persuaded to your way of thinking."
"Excellent. Go on."
I cleared my throat. This was the part I was most unsure about. "Then you would tease me by kissing your way down my stomach and along my legs until eventually you made it to my pussy where you would edge me until I told you everything you wanted to know." I rushed out the last of the sentence before dropping my head into my hands and hoped like hell the floor opened up and swallowed me whole.
CHAPTER TWENTY-FIVE
Nolen
I couldn't, for a second, believe what just came out of Vanessa's mouth. I mean I had hoped she had a dirty mind but it was one thing to think it and another to hear it.
Actually hearing it was worse because now here I was sitting on the chair with a raging hard-on and nothing to do with it. She was still healing from broken ribs. I couldn't possibly act on the things she had mentioned.
"That's not fair," I told her with a hitch in my tone.
"Why's that?" To make things worse, she squirmed in her chair. Clearly turned on by what she had to say and just waiting for me to relieve her.
"Because I can't do any of that without hurting your ribs." Was that a whine in my voice? It sure sounded like it.
The look Vanessa gave me was full of frustration. Whether it was sexual frustration or frustration over my answer, I would never know, because I didn't want to ask.
