I promise.\u201d His blue eyes are locked to mine. \u201cI hope I didn\u2019t make you uncomfortable. And I hope I didn\u2019t lose you, either. You\u2019re so good at what you do, and I value your skills so much. You\u2019re great with Hayden, and I don\u2019t want to mess that up. I\u2019m sorry for crossing the line.\u201d<br \/>\nI shake my head. \u201cIt\u2019s okay. I crossed it, too.\u201d<br \/>\nHe licks his lips. \u201cAnd I really appreciated you inviting me out with your friends. I wanted to go, but I didn\u2019t want to mess up your night. I didn\u2019t want to make you uncomfortable.\u201d<br \/>\nA grin threatens to take over my face because my heart soars. I thought he was turning me down. Instead, he was thinking of me. \u201cYou wouldn\u2019t have messed it up.\u201d<br \/>\n\u201cI wouldn\u2019t have?\u201d<br \/>\n\u201cNo.\u201d I latch onto Harper\u2019s advice. <em>Talk to him<\/em>. \u201cI wanted you there.\u201d<br \/>\nMy breath comes fast, and the hairs on my arms stand on end. We\u2019re so near to each other\u2014our words, our voices, our bodies.

I promise.\u201d<br \/>\nHe doesn\u2019t say anything in response. Just nods. I press my teeth into my lips. My back is against the sink, and he\u2019s standing so close I can smell him. The faint scent of his soap intoxicates me. He must have gone to the gym after work and taken a shower, and oh God, now I\u2019m imagining him naked in the shower, soaping up his strong body. I go up in flames.<br \/>\n\u201cWhat happened in the cab was\u201d\u2014he pauses, as if he\u2019s searching for the right word\u2014\u201ccrazy.\u201d But the way he says it in a voice full of longing doesn\u2019t sound like crazy-bad. It sounds like . . .<br \/>\n\u201cCrazy-good,\u201d I supply.<br \/>\nHe nods. \u201cSo good,\u201d he whispers, and inches closer.<br \/>\n\u201cIt was <em>so<\/em> good,\u201d I echo, my voice breathy, full of this potent need for him.<br \/>\nHe stares at me, his eyes brimming with heat. I exhale, and my lips part slightly. He\u2019s looking at my mouth now, and I\u2019m burning all over.<br \/>\nWe collide.<br \/>\nHis hands are in my hair, and his lips crush mine. My fingers race up his shirt and around his neck. I pull him against me, his strong, hard body aligned with mine. His erection presses against my belly, and the realization that he\u2019s already hard thrills me. Sparks fly through me as I register <em>how <\/em>hard he is, and my God, I want him. I want to feel him slide into me, I want to take him deep into my body. I want him to know what he does to me, too\u2014that I\u2019m as turned on as he is, and I can\u2019t stop kissing him.<br \/>\nHis big hands curl around my head, and I moan into his mouth. I love how much bigger he is than I am\u2014taller, broader, stronger. He meets every primal desire I have to be taken. I want this man to consume me. I want to be under him, I want to be pinned by him\u2014I want the full weight of him moving over me.<br \/>\nHis lips are demanding, coaxing out more and more kisses from me. More murmurs, more sighs. As I arch into him, he groans, rough and husky.<br \/>\nThen, he breaks the kiss.<br \/>\n\u201cThis is bad,\u201d he says firmly, his breath coming heavily. But then, he\u2019s not so certain at all. \u201cIs this bad?\u201d<br \/>\n\u201cYes,\u201d I answer quickly. \u201cIt\u2019s bad.
