Julian immediately pulled back from her, and just as quickly, she drew him back into her embrace.“Oh no.Why didn’t you tell me?”
“I just did.”
“I mean earlier.”
“You were busy at work, and I’m fine.”
“I’m sorry I caused you discomfort.”
“Trust me, it was totally worth it.I’ve been in this state of dazed disbelief all day.”
“Is that right?”
“Uh-huh.It’s never been like that for me.”
“Tell me more.”
Her giggle was the new sound of joy for him.
“Come snuggle me.”
“Nothing I’d rather do.”
She rested her head on his chest and sighed.“This is lovely.”
“Sure is.You were going to tell me more about how it’s never been like that for you…”
“I’ve only been with Gabriel, so I didn’t know anything else.When we were first together, it was really great between us.He made me feel wanted and sexy and you know…”
“I know.”A wild feeling of possessiveness caught him off guard as he tried not to picture her with another man.
“But there were things he didn’t like to do.”
“What things?”
“You want, like, details?”
“I’m here for anything you want to tell me.”
“It’s kind of embarrassing.”
“Don’t be embarrassed with me.You have no idea how obsessed I am with you—in the best-possible way, of course.”
“Of course.”
He felt her lips curve into a smile against his chest as he ran his fingers through her silky hair.“Don’t be shy, Isla.I want to hear all your thoughts, even the naughty ones.”
“He didn’t like oral.”
“Giving or receiving?”
“Giving.Receiving was never a problem.”
“Why did I know you were going to say that?”
“It was fine with me.The few times he did do that, it didn’t do much for me.”
“Because he didn’t want to be doing it, so he intentionally sucked at it.No pun intended.”
