She tilts her face toward me slightly, looking at me from the corner of her eye.
“Thanks for the ride, Kayden. I’ll grab my things and get going. I’m sorry I bothered you so early in the morning.”
“No, I don’t think so.”
Her tiny gasp makes my cock strain in my pants, and her parted lips make me imagine all the ways I could pull those delectable sounds from between her plump lips.
“I’m going to grab your things, and you’re going to lead the way up to your apartment. I’m not letting you go up there alone.”
I know for a fact that Derek is not actually in her apartment, I already checked the cameras, but I’m a selfish bastard and I’ll take whatever excuse I can get to spend a little more time with the woman before me.
“And if I refuse?”
My face deadpans as I reply, “You won’t.”
Dani bites her lip and turns toward the window again, seemingly contemplating the serious tone in my voice that is brokering no argument.
“OK, let’s go.”
After doinga thorough sweep of her apartment, all for show, I enter the living room where Dani is currently sitting on the couch, looking dejected and exhausted.
Standing in the doorway, I wait for Dani to speak first.
“I don’t know what to do with myself…”
“Well, let’s start by getting you out of your wet clothes and into something warm.”
She looks down at herself as though she completely forgot she was soaked.
“Huh… I probably got your seat wet in the truck. I’m so sorry.”
I take two long strides to her spot on the couch, bend down, and grasp her chin between my fingers to tilt her face up toward my own.
“You’re going to listen to me, do you understand?” Her green eyes widen and her pupils blow out, a need reflected in her eyes that mirrors my own.
I wait for her to nod before continuing.
“You’re going to stop saying sorry, Dani. None of this is your fault. If I hear you say sorry one more time, I’m going to put you over my knee.”
She tries to pull away from my grip, but she fails as she releases a gasp from between her satin lips. This I can work with.
“You’re not going anywhere.”
“OK,” she replies, her breath heavy.
“Good girl.”
Dani’s eyes widen at my praise, and I can’t help but grow even harder at the thought that she responds so readily to me.
“Good to know, little spitfire,” I respond with a smirk.
Letting go of her chin, I take a step back and look at Dani expectantly.
I raise an eyebrow at her, almost in challenge. What is she going to do? Is she going to go to her room to take her wet clothes off, or will she give in to the desire that is so plainly written all over her face? I can be honorable, but right now I feel like a right bastard. If I have to use desire to pull Dani out of the depths of her own mind, I will.
Dani looks torn however, and she starts to toy with her lip ring as she looks up at me.
“Dani. Donotbite your lip unless you want me to undress you right here, right now, and claim those pretty lips in the most dishonorable way.”
