“Say it, baby,” he murmured, slipping one finger through my folds. I gasped, arching up, greedy for more. Then he tugged it away again.
“What?” I grated on a strangled breath, scowling.
“You still hate me?”
His knowing smirk had me growling, and I squinted my eyes. “You’re not playing fucking fair.”
His finger dipped inside, then back out, and I huffed in frustration. “Never said I would.”
I dragged in air and bit the inside of my cheek, then moaned when he slid two fingers over my sensitive flesh, parting me.
“Say it, Lissa… and I’ll give you what you want.”
I held his eyes for long seconds, then, “I don’t fucking hate you, Leon.”
A satisfied smile spread over his face as he shoved his fingers back inside. But it was the primal, possessive look in his blue eyes that sent me spiralling over the edge with a piercing cry.
As my walls clenched around his fingers, he leaned down and whispered into my ear, “That’s what I thought, Snow Queen.”
“You okay over there?”
Riley’s voice snapped me from the memory and my head spun round, cheeks flushed with heat. “What?”
Her narrowed eyes flickered over me, her mind working, and I blanked my face, schooling my features.
“Something’s different,” she mumbled, her gaze still scoring my face.
“Nothing’s different,” I said, sweeping a hand over my hair before pointing out the windshield. “Stop looking at me and keep your damn eyes forward. You can barely keep th
e car on the road as it is.”
She rolled her eyes. “I’ll have you know I haven’t had one accident in thi—”
“Argh,” I groaned, “Now you’ve gone and fucking done it.”
A grin broke out on her face, and she shook her head. “Don’t you worry, Lissy. I’ll get you to Leon in one piece.”
My neck almost snapped off my shoulders as I swung to her, and she arched a brow, a smirk playing over her lips.
“I meant Danny’s.”
“Sure, you did.”
“But that got quite the reaction, Liss.”
My eyes rolled back into my head. “Okay,” I muttered. “Point made.”
Her hands squeezed the steering wheel as she inched forward with a smile. “You ready to tell me?”
“There’s nothing much to tell.” I hitched a shoulder.
“But there’s something?” she hedged as she swung the car to the side of the road a few houses down from Danny’s. I tugged my lip between my teeth.
“I…” I started, pausing to look down at my hands before bringing my gaze back to hers. This was Riley. My best friend since the age of nine. I felt something for Leon. I still hadn’t put a name to it, but it was there, and it was real, and it wasn’t going anywhere. And the only person I could even consider talking to about it was sitting right across from me. “I’m sleeping with Leon.”
Ri’s lips molded into a beaming smile and she reached across the seats to lay her hand over my knee. Her eyes were bright when she asked, “Is it serious?”
I blinked, running my tongue between my lips. “I don’t know.”
