Wild Sexy Hurt (Wild Sexy 3)

“Except I could never quite get away from you.”

“That’s because”—he placed a finger over my heart—“I’m in here.”

“In my heart or my breast?”

He laughed and palmed my breast, flicking his thumb over my nipple. He looked at me, and his gaze turned serious.

“Loving me doesn’t make you weak or vulnerable, Daphne. I know that because knowing I love you, knowing I want to be with only you…it makes me feel better about my life than I have in a long time.”

“I don’t feel weaker or vulnerable in a bad way, not anymore. I don’t even miss being alone. I feel like I’ve always belonged to you.”

His chest rose. “And I belong to you. I’m not going to let you out of my sight.”

I gave him a teasing look. “Are you planning to keep me naked and tied to your bed?”

He raised an eyebrow. “It’s a thought.”

“You have a dirty mind.”

“You suggested it.”

“I did,” I conceded. “I do have a dirty mind.”

“I love it.” His lips moved to my mouth, and he kissed me. “Why do you always taste so good?”

“I don’t know…maybe so you’ll never stop kissing me.”

His lips curved, and he leaned in to kiss me again. His hand moved lazily over my breast.

“We’re leaving in an hour at the most,” I reminded him. “Leonard will be here soon.”

“An hour is more than enough,” Jason said, rolling to cover my body with his, “and Leonard can wait if it’s not.”

Chapter Five

A long drive later, Leonard finally parked on the street in front of my place. Jason was holding my hand, stroking my fingers while my head rested on his shoulder, my body still tingling from the orgasms he’d given me just before we left the beach house.

I burrowed into his side, breathing him in. “We’re here,” I said softly.

He didn’t stop playing with my fingers. “Mhmm.”

Neither of us made any move to leave the car. I hated for our time together to come to an end, and I supposed he felt the same way.

“Do you want to come inside?” I asked finally.

Jason shook his head. “Not now. I have to catch up on a lot of work, but I’ll call you later tonight, and maybe we can have lunch tomorrow, with Amy and Colin if they’re free.”

A double date. I smiled. “That’ll be great.”

He squeezed my hand before releasing it back to me. I placed it on my lap, feeling regret at the loss of the contact.

“Daphne.” He placed the side of one finger under my chin and lifted my face to meet his gaze. Emotion surged in his eyes, and an answering wave swelled inside me.

“I love you,” I whispered.

He exhaled then lowered his head to stroke my mouth with his. He licked my lower lip then sucked it gently before pulling back. “I love you more.”

“Impossible.”
