“Let me take you to work.” Dillan begged against my lips, again, as he kissed me goodbye at the front door.
“No. I can’t. No one can see you.”
He frowned and stepped back. “Why?”
Oh joy, I insulted him. I quickly grabbed his shirt and pulled him back. “My bosses can’t know I have ties to the underworld. No matter how small they are.”
Dillan still wasn’t happy about that, but he let it go. “When will I see you again?”
I bit my lip to keep from smiling. “Do you want to see me again? I thought it was just one night. A deal.”
He brushed his fingers through my hair, something I knew he liked to do. Which was why my hair was almost always going to be down now. Just in case. Yeah, I was pathetic, I know.
“I think we both know that deal was just my way of giving you something you wanted.”
“Hmmm, and here I thought it was your way to weasel your way into seeing me naked again. Something you wanted.”
He chuckled softly as he kissed my forehead. “Do I need to keep creating reasons to see you naked? Or is my desire to be with you going to be enough now?” He took my hand and placed it over said desire.
I whimpered, because now I was the one with a need. I unzipped his pants and slid my hand in. I grinned when he hissed.
“Is that what this is? Desire? And here I thought you were just horny.”
Dillan’s head fell back, his eyes closed. “It is most definitely that too. But only for you.”
“Really? No one else is going to touch you? Not even your little friend from the club?” I may have squeezed a little too tight when I thought of her draped all over him.
Dillan jumped but didn’t move away. Instead, he made a mess all over himself. He cursed and sank against the wall. I removed my hand and wiped it on his shirt.
Dillan grabbed my hand and pulled me in close. “Bunny is nothing but an employee. I’ve never touched her, or anyone that works for me. I swear to you.”
“That’s not what it looked like.”
“It was supposed to look like that. She is one of the few open for private rooms. When she needs to tell me something, she acts like she is coming onto me. It helps hide her purpose and sell herself to customers.”
I shook my head, looking away from him. “She wants you.”
Dillan cringed. “Yes. But she knows the answer already.” He put a finger to my cheek and turned me back to face him. “You are the one I want. No one else. I can promise you that.”
“I don’t want her even pretending.”
