You're The One (Very Irresistible Bachelors 1)

Amusement flickered in his eyes. “You were the one afraid of sharks.”

“Any sensible person is afraid of sharks,” I countered, but stood a little away from him.

I loved climbing. Reaching for the next milestone, focusing on one move at a time was the best way to shut down the constant mind chatter.

From time to time, I glanced down at Hunter. I wasn’t going very fast, but he was still a good way behind me.

“Did you have fun?” I asked after we finished the session.

He waggled his eyebrows. “I had an excellent view.”

So that explained why he’d always remained behind me.

“You’re unbelievable.”

“What’s next?” I asked as he led me to the car.

He kissed my hand, opening the door for me. “We’re going home, and I’ll keep taking care of you.”

That sounded like a dream.

He’d ordered all my favorite food, and we arrived at the same time as the delivery guy. We relieved him of the bags, carrying everything to the kitchen.

“Bringing out the big guns?” I murmured.

I intended to put it all on plates, but someone kept distracting me. Hunter kissed the side of my neck, dragging his hands down the sides of my body. How was I supposed to go back to a life where we didn’t have all this? He bit my earlobe, pressing my ass against his crotch. Holy hell. He was semihard. He fondled one ass cheek lightly. I gasped, already anticipating his next touch.

“You’re so beautiful, Josie. So fucking sexy.”

He trailed his fingers from my ass cheeks up my back, resting them over the clasp of my bra before dropping his hand altogether.

“You’re mean,” I murmured.

“On the contrary. I am on my best behavior.”

“But I don’t want that.”

I turned, flashing him a pout to let him know I was only semi-okay with this. I mean, I wanted dinner, but I wanted Hunter more. Then I decided on another strategy.

“You’re right. Dinner is an even better idea than sexy time.”

“Babe, I’m offended.”

I peeked at him sideways.

“Offended enough to do something about it?”

He gave me a sly smile, bending to kiss my shoulder.

“You little vixen.”

“Learned from the best.”

He turned me around, kissing me so deep and hard, gripping my hips so possessively that I couldn’t help letting out that moan I’d been holding in.

When we pulled apart, we were both fighting for breath. I smiled, and we both finished putting our dinner on plates.
