Leo (Vigilance 3)

I continued listening and finished eating as he described all the holiday adventures he had with his family. I was mesmerized by his excitement. When he finally slowed down, I said, “That sounds awesome. I was going to help Cathy decorate the café, but…”

“I took you away. I guess that means you’ll have to help me decorate here and at the shop. I was going to do that this weekend.”

“Really? You don’t mind me helping?” I tried to stifle a yawn, but I couldn’t quite manage it. He really had worn me out.

Leo smiled. “I don’t mind at all, but it looks like I need to get you to bed.”

“Sorry. I guess I’m really sleepy.”

“You have reason to be.”

I wasn’t sure what to say. I wanted to curl up with him in his big bed, but I had no idea if that was what he intended. Just because we’d fucked didn’t mean he’d want me with him all night. “Do you have a guest room? If not, I can sleep on the couch or—”

“Is that what you want? To sleep alone?”

“Um… no. but you said you never brought men back here, so…”

“I chose to bring you here, and I want you in my bed. I want your body pressed against mine. I want you to be surrounded by me all night.”

Holy fuck, could he be any more perfect? “Yes, please.”

He smiled, and without warning, he scooped me into his arms the way he had earlier after he’d sucked my brains out through my dick.

I couldn’t hold back a burst of laughter. “I can’t believe how easily you can pick me up, but I love it.”

“Being able to lift you will just make it that much easier when I want to fuck you standing up.”

“Oh my God.” I guess that meant he really did want me again. I was all for that standing, sitting, in bed, on the table. I didn’t care where. For now, I wasn’t going to think about the future, only about how good he made me feel.

When I woke the next morning, I was disoriented. It took a few moments for me to remember I was at Leo’s apartment. I’d fallen asleep with him spooning me, but I no longer felt his heat. I turned over and saw that his side of the bed was empty, and I tried not to be disappointed.

I sat up and ran a hand through my hair, trying to fully wake up. Before I managed to drag myself out from under the covers, the bedroom door opened, and Leo walked in.

He was wearing a pair of gray sweatpants that beautifully showed off his assets, and I hoped he didn’t plan on putting on a shirt because I could look at his naked torso all day.

“Good morning.”

I’d been blatantly staring at him for… a while. “Good morning. Sorry, I…”

“I like that I distract you.”

At least he didn’t seem to think I was pathetic. I didn’t see how anyone could keep from staring at him. He was the hottest man I’d ever seen in real life.

“I was going to order us some breakfast. What do you want?”

My gaze dropped to the bulge clearly outlined by his snug-fitting sweats.

“Food,” Leo said. “What food do you want?”

Right. Food. Surely I could think of a food I liked. “Um… anything is okay. I… I’m not picky.”

“I didn’t ask you what you’d settle for. I asked what you wanted.”

“Waffles.” I wasn’t sure why I blurted that out. I hadn’t had waffles in ages, but suddenly I had a craving for them. “And bacon. And coffee. A lot of coffee.”

“That sounds perfect.”

“You can get waffles delivered?”

“There’s a food cart that always parks down the block on Sunday mornings. They have incredible waffles and any toppings you want. I’ll send one of the men who’s watching the building to pick up our order.”

“They’ll do that?”

“Of course, especially since I’ll tell them to get something for themselves too. They don’t have bacon, but I have some here.”

“You don’t have to cook for me. I don’t want to make trouble.”

“Sweetheart, the only thing you’re doing is distracting me from everything but the desire to pleasure you all day long.”

I licked my lips. “I… um… I wouldn’t be opposed to that.”

He grinned. “Don’t tempt me. Now what do you want on your waffle.”

I thought for a moment. “Strawberries, whipped cream, and chocolate sauce.”

“Regular coffee or something special.”

“You really don’t—”

“Ezra.”

“A caramel latte.”

“I could have guessed that.”

“How?”

“Trade secret. Stay right there. I’m going to get my phone so I can place the order, and I’ll be right back.”

I watched as he walked away. His ass looked fucking beautiful encased in the sweats. I heard him start to tell someone what we wanted as he walked back toward me. He leaned against the doorframe, clearly displaying himself for me as he talked.
