Bad Maya.Focus.I tried to shove the thought away, but I couldn’t think of anything else after what I’d heard through the bathroom door.
Fuck, yes.
That groan was seared into my brain.
Fuckyesfuckyesfuckyes.
I should have left when his voice caused a throb of longing so intense my knees buckled, but before I could snap out of my stupor, he’d walked out of the bathroom completely butt-ass naked, and my eyes dropped straight to his dick.And then, like an idiot, I spoke and scared the hell out of him.
So stupid.Why couldn’t I have kept my mouth shut and looked my fill?
“Maya?”
My eyes shot up to see that he’d taken a step closer to me.Catching myself fanning my face with my hand, I jammed it into my pocket, hoping he hadn’t noticed the effect he was having on me.
“Maya,” Liam drawled, a smirk tugging his lips as he glanced at the bed next to me.“Are you alright?”
I nodded dumbly, struggling to speak through the sound of my own frantic thoughts.Why had he glanced at the bed?Did he want me to get on it?Did I want to get on it?
“Maya?”
“Yeah.Yup.Yes.To-totally okay.”I shot him with finger guns, cringing internally but unable to stop my babbling.“Peachy keen, jelly bean.”
“How did you get into my room?”He crossed his arms over his chest as though unaffected by my presence.With a flirtatious smile, he flexed his biceps, and my thighs clenched of their own accord.“If I’d known you were coming to surprise me like this, I’d have left you a key.”His grin was mischievous when he added, “Mrs.Patterson is going to get the wrong idea.”
My gaze drifted lower, but with tremendous effort, I managed to tear my eyes away from the water droplets racing down his chest and forced myself to look him in the eye.Focus, Maya.
“So, what brings you by?”he asked with a chuckle.
“I found this and thought I should deliver it.”I gestured to the bag at my feet.“And … I wanted to apologize.”
“Apologize?”He raised an eyebrow.“Should I get dressed for this?”
No.Please stay naked forever.I pushed that thought away.“Crap.Right.Sorry.I’ll go out in the hall.”I jerked my thumb toward the door.
“It’s fine.Stay and enjoy the view.”He waved away my protest before grabbing a towel from the bed.So that’s what he was looking at.“Stay and enjoy.I know how long you’ve been trying to get me naked,” he added with a wink, sending a flush of heat through my core.
“What?!No, I—”
“I’m kidding.Just don’t peek.”He turned to rummage through the dresser.“I trust you.”
Is that why he hadn’t been in a rush to cover up?He’d stood there nude, casually crossing his arms over his chest instead of covering his penis because he trusted me not to peek?
Hell, I didn’t even trustmyselfnot to peek.
“Yes.Of course.”I spun to face the wall, but not before drinking in the sight of the sculpted globes of his butt cheeks.So good, so biteable.“I’m sorry for barging in on you.Mrs.Patterson didn’t think you would mind if I came in to wait for you to be done with your, ah, your shower.”
He chuckled from somewhere behind me.“It’s fine.”His voice dropped, becoming deep and rough.“I was just thinking of you anyway.”
He’d been thinking of me?
Fuck, yes.
Fuckyesfuckyesfuckyesfuckyes.His voice played in my head on repeat.Had he been thinking of me while doingthat?No, no.That couldn’t be right.I must have misunderstood.
“You can turn around now.”
I took a steadying breath before turning back.Liam’s jeans strained over his thighs, and his white t-shirt exposed more muscle than it hid.How was he as sexy clothed as he was nude?Talk about unfair.
