Excerpt
“You
must think this whole situation is really weird.” I put my glass down. “I mean
the whole thing with me using your name with my mom and making her think you’re
my boyfriend.” I wave my hand around. “I don’t usually do this.” I wince. “I
mean, I don’t usually ask random men to pretend to be my boyfriend. Ever,
actually.”
“You
don’t?” He cocks an eyebrow, and I can’t tell if he’s joking or not.
Heat
rises to my cheeks. “I didn’t know what to do. My mom—”
His
lips quirk again, and I realize that’s his version of a smile. “I get it, moms
can be demanding.” He shrugs. “Sure, it caught me off guard at first. But I
guess people do this kind of thing every day.”
I
widen my eyes. “You think people ask other people to be a fake partner often?”
He
hands me the plate, moving to close the distance between us. “No,” he says, his
voice gruff, his eyes locked on mine.
I
put my wineglass down and lift a hand to accept the plate. My body is
vibrating. He’s so close. I’m eye level with his neck, so I have to look up at
him, and the dynamic of that makes me feel small, delicate almost. I like it.
“I
think people help one another out when they need it.”
He
reaches his hand out, like he’s about to put his hand on my waist, his eyes are
locked on mine, and I feel this zing of chemistry that I’m sure he’s feeling,
too. Until he blinks then drops his hand and takes a step back.
“You
did help me out.” I want him to touch
me so badly. My body is shaking from all the pent-up lust. I put my plate on
the table so I don’t drop it. “Thank you.” I bite my bottom lip. I feel giddy
and reckless. I feel like I want to jump on this man and rub myself all over
him.
Something
flickers in his eyes. He nods, moves closer again, puts his hand on my jaw,
cupping so that he can brush his thumb over my bottom lip, dislodging it from
my teeth. “I like it when you do that.”
I like it when you do that. His voice rolls down my spine. His
body is so close, our chests brush as we breathe in one another’s scent. My
pussy quivers. I’m soaking my panties something fierce. His nostrils flare, and
he gets this look on his face that’s hard to read, like he’s holding himself
back. Kiss me already!
“Your
stomach is growling.”
I
frown up at him. My eyesight is hazy, my brain fuzzy. “Hmmm?”
“Let’s
get some food into you. You’re obviously starving.”
I
can hardly process what he’s saying. He takes a step back, and I lose that body
heat of his. He wants food? How can he think of food at a time like this?
“You
want to eat?” I swear my brain has short-circuited. My nerves are buzzing, and
I can’t make sense of how food could possibly compare to the possibility of
that kiss or where that kiss could go.
He
picks up a fork and offers me some tandoori. I open my mouth, letting him slide
the food in. Oh hell yes, just the right balance of spicy heat that makes my
whole mouth happy. It’s so good. My stomach yowls again, impatient for me to
chew. When I open my eyes, he’s staring at me with an answering hunger in his
eyes.
“You’re
hungry. Eat.” He motions with his fork toward my plate. “Then we need to talk.”
His
tone is...blank. That’s the best word I’ve got for it. I chew quickly, because
that doesn’t sound ominous at all.

ReplyDeleteOMG, I SOOOO agree with all of this from my own perspective (except that I'm not a published author). The written word doesn't get the recognition nor respect that it did during previous centuries, and that's a shame.
Laney4, It really doesn't get that level of recognition anymore does it? Thanks for stopping by!
DeleteI love this excerpt. I really want to know where the story goes.
ReplyDeleteI hope you keep reading ;-)
