Sweet Spot (Irresistible 1) - Page 22

“Yeah? Name one thing you like about her besides the way she looks.”

“I might be addicted to her voice,” I said. “I can tell she’s fiercely protective of her independence and I find that intriguing.” I paused, taking a drink. “She’s also insanely sexy when she’s pissed at me so I can only imagine what she looks like pleased with me.”

“Well, if you want a shot at finding out you better go,” Tess muttered, annoyed. “It’s five past eight.”

“Shit.” I sprang to my feet. “Talk to you later.”

“Love you,” she grumbled, adding, “dickhead,” before hanging up.

I laughed as I grabbed my jacket and keys. My sister was clearly annoyed with me but I still counted that conversation as a good one. Anytime I could hear her voice sounding crisp and clear with some sort of audible emotion, it was a win. Especially now. It was getting close to the anniversary of the day that turned our lives upside down. We were both known to fall into dark places in the weeks leading up to it but lately, between Lia and the constant drama at work, I had my distractions. Tess, however, had nothing but countryside to stare out at all day and night. But on the bright side, she had Grandma Elodie. At eight-six, the woman still jogged every morning and was still sharp as a whip, so I could definitely take comfort in the fact that she was with Tess, keeping an eye on her at all times.

Though I hoped Grandma Elodie hadn’t overheard that particular conversation. Shallow my ass, I thought as I knocked on Lia’s door.

“Just a minute!” I heard her call from inside.

“Take your time,” I said, quickly replying to the apology text Tess sent me. I was laughing at her text back when Lia finally opened the door. “Sorry, I was just – ”

I shut up once I looked up, her smile snatching the words off my tongue. Shit. Tugging the knot of my tie, I gave her the onceover. God-fuckin’-damn. She looked incredible. The olive green dress stretched over her body was long, skimming her ankles, but it hugged her curves perfectly and gave me a generous hint of leg with the slit up the side.

Judging from the look on her face, she had at least a hunch she looked good.

“Hi,” Lia said, biting her lip as she stepped out into the hall.

“I take it back.”

“What?”

“Let’s go to bed and get dinner after.”

“Shut up,” she rolled her eyes, walking ahead of me down the hall. Christ, that ass. It was tight, round and perfect, and the way her hips twitched from side to side with every step was fucking hypnotizing.

“What if I said please?”

“I didn’t take an hour getting dressed for nothing, Lukas, now let’s go.”

“Hold up.” I grinned at the dry look she was already shooting me. “You took an hour to get ready for me?”

“Yes. I did. I haven’t dated in a long time so sue me for enjoying myself while getting ready.”

I nodded. “So this is a date.”

“No. It’s not a date,” she corrected hastily. “It’s just… foreplay.”

I could feel the dirtiness in my smirk. “I can work with that.”

“Ah, ah, ah,” Lia warned, narrowing those sexy eyes at me. “No funny business while we’re at dinner. I didn’t mean foreplay as in you trying to… touch me under the table.”

“Touch what? You’re not seriously going to be shy with me when I had my tongue in your pussy last night, are you?”

“Lukas!” Lia hissed, covering her face for a moment. “Please do not talk about what happened last night.”

“Why?”

“Because I want to sit through dinner before I ruin my panties,” she

snapped, grinning when I lifted my eyebrows. “They’re new,” she said, her voice softer. “And they’re pretty,” she added with a little smirk.

I gave her a look of warning. “Keep telling me. I’ll fuck you in this hall, Lia.”
