My jaw drops open, and a silent battle rages between our gazes.
His seems to say,come on, you know you want to give in.
I really do.
That stupid fucking smirk is going to be the death of me.
Biting my bottom lip to smother a smile, I concede. “Fine. You can drive, but I get to be in charge of what we listen to.”
His breath of sweet relief gusts against my cheek before he walks to the driver’s-side door.
Little does he know, he’s about to regret making this arrangement.
Dropping into the passenger seat, I lift my chin and shimmy my shoulders with excitement. “My audiobook is right at the good part. The sexual tension isjustabout to snap.”
When I throw a smug grin in his direction, his skin has paled to a snow white, and I add a new job idea to my mental list.
7. Full-time role as the woman who makes Gavin lose his mind.

GAVIN
“If you don’t stop sassing me, I’m going to fuck that pretty mouth.”
A bead of sweat rolls down my temple as I attempt to discreetly set my arm over my thigh to conceal how this fucking audiobook has sent every ounce of blood straight to my dick. I can feel Lena’s laser focus on me as she searches for any sign that she’s successfully riling me up.
This is so wildly inappropriate to listen to together, but I’m determined not to give her the satisfaction of knowing she’s winning this battle.
She’s literally kicking her feet on the dash and squealing at whatever the fuck this book is. I can’t even remember the main characters’ names, but I can remember exactly how much squirming Lena and I have done over the course of this drive.
I swallow thickly and tug on the collar of my sweater as the female narrator’s moans fill the car.
“You’d like that, wouldn’t you?” a deep voice says. “I just can’t decide if I want to fuck you like my princess or my dirty little slut.”
My fingers slam over the volume knob right as the last word comes out, ending in a dead silence ringing through the car. But after a beat, Lena’s loud, cackling laughter erupts, echoing through the small space. I drop my arm back over my crotch right as she looks my way.
“It was just getting to the good part,” she whines, fanning her flushed cheeks. “You didn’t like it?”
My grip tightens around the steering wheel.
Of course Ilikedit.
Too much.
But I shouldn’t be imagining the woman next to me while that scene plays out in my head. I shouldn’t be picturingheron her knees, lips swollen and eyes pinned to mine while she takes me into her mouth.
Her vibrating groan as I hit the back of her throat.
Fuck, I have to stop thinking about it.
“I honestly didn’t think you would last that long,” she says with a sigh, pulling her feet from the dash and turning toward me.
Goddamn it. I wouldn’t last that long.
I drag in a deep breath, trying to put all my concentration into making my blood flow back to all the appropriate places.
“Your cheeks are a little pink, Gav,” Lena teases, leaning closer to inspect them.
