Pretend You're Mine (Inked Hearts 3)

“Yeah.”
“You’re happier?”
He nods.
“Because you’re getting over her?”
“I am. But that’s not it.”
I stare up into his eyes. “Then why?”
“Leigh…” His fingers curl into my hair.
My eyelids press together.
He cups my cheek with his palm. Runs his thumb over my temple.
“Say it.”
“Leigh…” His other hand goes to the small of my back. H
e pulls my body into his. “You know I can’t.”
“Please.” I lean into his touch. “Please, Ryan.”
“You.” His voice is sweet. “It’s all you.”
I rise to my tiptoes.
His lips find mine.
It’s soft.
Then harder.
My lips part to make way for his tongue.
He backs me into the wall. Holds my body against his as he pins me.
As his tongue dances with mine.
He tastes good.
Like mint and like Ryan.
It’s different than our other kisses. Deeper. Realer. Better.
So much better.
My fingers dig into his skin.
His hips rock against mine.
His hard-on presses against my pelvis.
He pulls back with a heavy sigh.
I blink my eyes open.
