He hummed in thought. “Are you afraid of your father?”
I snorted. “Never.”
“Are you afraid of what he would think?”
“Of course.”
He whispered on the deepest rumble, “Then we won’t tell him.”
The man was pure temptation.
“That’s not all of it.” I opened my eyes and lifted my head to peer into his wondrous golden gaze. “I don’t trust you. And if word ever leaked… It wouldn’t be good, big man.”
He held my eyes with a steady and patient gaze, even though heat simmered in those golden orbs. “Do you want to know something?”
“I’m not sure.” I eyed him carefully.
He smirked. “I’m going to tell you anyway.”
“I thought you would.”
Godric dipped his head down close to my face, his warm breath fanning over my lips. “You’re still going to fuck me again and again despite all your reservations.”
My snort was soft. “Why is that?”
“Because you want to. You want the right to choose your fate and who you are with. And you will choose me because you can’t seem to help yourself when you’re around me.” He leaned lower, pressing his mouth against mine, moving his lips against my lips while he spoke. "And I can’t seem to help myself either, even though you’re right. This is an extremely bad decision. And I still don’t give a fuck.”
CHAPTEREIGHTEEN
I moaned in need, my lower stomach heating deliciously. I pressed myself hard against him and ran my hands up his chest to grab hold of the lapels of his suit jacket. I wanted him to kiss me as much as I needed to breathe. His natural scent surrounded me, full of wild spice and cherries. I wanted to lick him all over.
I groaned, “Kiss me.”
Godric pounced at my acceptance. His arms wrapped around me and lifted me off the floor. I wrapped my legs around his waist and held tight to his suit jacket as he pressed my back against his bookshelf.
He tilted his head and kissed my lips just how I wanted. Like I was his favorite dessert. His tongue touched mine and glided with sensual hunger, battling for dominance. He needn’t have worried. I submitted to him in a heartbeat, my body quivering against his.
I rubbed myself on his hard muscles. “Yes.”
“Mmm.” He moaned and slid his hands down to my ass, holding me close against his erection. “I want you, pet.”
I groaned in frustration and leaned away. My head tipped back, and I stared at his ceiling. “I don’t have time. Major Wilcox will kick me out if I don’t get back to her group.”
He sucked on the side of my neck with gentleness. “I can order her not to.”
I grabbed ahold of his hair and pulled his face back to stare into his eyes. “Don’t you dare. I want to make it in the CA on my own. I don’t want another man interfering in my future.”
His eyes narrowed. “You are rather stubborn.”
“At times.” I leaned forward and kissed his lips once more. “I really need to get going now. I’ll have to find her in this huge ass place.”
“That, I can help you with.” He leaned heavily against me, smashing my body against the bookcase, as he placed his forehead on my shoulder. Then he mumbled in his own frustrated tone, “Order: Call Reed.”
His bracelet buzzed.
“Yes, sir?” His assistant’s voice was clear.
“Do a search to find where Major Wilcox is in the building right now.”
