“Ugh.” Xander groaned, but he was still smiling. “I’m going to need a beer—or ten.”
“Coming right up,” I said and pulled away from Aiden. “Do you want anything?”
“Besides you in the bed right now?” he said softly as he whispered in my ear.
“Aiden,” I groaned as he caressed my back. “Do you want anything to drink?”
“Besides your juices as you come in my mouth?” he whispered again, and my face grew bright red.
“Aiden!” I slapped his shoulder. “Go into the living room with Xander now.”
“Yes, Aiden.” Liv pointed her finger at her brother. “You’d better behave.”
“Or what?” he retorted back.
“Or I’m going to show you what happens to boys who don’t behave.” I grabbed the top of his shirt and pulled him towards me. “I bought a paddle online and it arrived while we were gone.”
“A paddle, huh?” His eyes sparkled down at me.
“Yes, a paddle.” I pulled him even closer to me. “And I’m not afraid to use it.”
“I hope you’re not afraid to feel it as well,” he said softly. “‘Cause my hand is itching to give you a good spanking right now.”
“Oh yeah?” I said and then whispered against his lips, “I think I’ll have to make sure that doesn’t happen, then. I think tonight I’ll handcuff you to the bed.”
“Oh yeah?” he said and tugged on my lower lip.
“I’m going to tease you until you beg me to take you.” I licked his lower lip and he groaned.
“What if I beg you right now?” he said and pulled me into him so that I could feel his hardness against my stomach. “What if I begged you to take me right now?”
“It wouldn’t matter.” I gave him a quick kiss and pulled away from him. “I’m the one in charge right now. We’ll go to bed when I say.” I watched his jaw drop open in surprise, and I grinned as I walked back down the corridor to the living room while swaying my hips. I looked behind me as I got to the living room door and I saw Aiden just standing there, looking at me with narrowed eyes and a huge grin on his face. I walked into the living room feeling warm and excited. This truly was the beginning of something wonderful and adventurous between us.
WAITING IS PART OF THE FUN
“No Monopoly tonight,” Liv said as we all sat around her parents’ dining room table. She spoke directly to Aiden and he made a face at her.
“Fine,” he said as he held my hand under the table. “What do you want to play, then?”
“I don’t care,” she said and then looked at Elizabeth. “What do you want to play?”
“Who, me?” Elizabeth blushed. “I’m just happy to be here. I’m surprised I was invited.” She looked at me. “I wasn’t sure how you’d feel about me being here.”
“Oh, I’m fine.” I laughed. “You were a great actress, but you were always nice. I’m glad you’re here. Liv and I need another girl in the group.”
“Aww, thanks. I’m so happy to be here.” She smiled at me and then at Liv. “I’m so glad to make some new friends in town.”
“Oh, I thought you made friends quite easily,” Scott said with a weird look on his face.
“I’m glad I gave you that impression,” she responded with a tight look on her face.
“I think we all got that impression, didn’t we?” Scott looked around the table, and I could see that he looked slightlyannoyed. Liv and I gave each other a look and I was dying to talk to her about the weirdness between them. What was going on there?
“I’d be happy to show you around town,” Henry said from his seat next to Scott. His green eyes looked friendly as he smiled at her and he was clearly oblivious to the tension in the room. Typical man!
“Oh, thanks.” She smiled back. “I’d like that.”
“I’m sure you would,” Scott said and then chugged his beer down. “So what are we going play, then?”
