“I’ll leave you to it,” Marc says, giving me a wink before turning to leave.
Shephard turns to look at me. His eyes are soft and I reach up to touch his cheek. “You okay?” He nods and I wrap my arms around his neck. “Are you really a virgin? You don’t seem like it,” I admit. The way he just pinned me to the wall made it seem like he knew what he was doing.
“I’d never lie to you,” he says as he strokes my lips with a gentle finger.
“You don’t even know me,” I counter.
“I’m going to know every part of you before the night is over,” he says with confidence.
I lick my lips, my tongue catching his finger.
“I don’t want to lose my virginity here,” I tell him. My cheeks warm as I admit that I want to lose it to him, just not in this place.
“I’d never let that happen.” He leans down and kisses me. His hands go to my ass as he lifts me, and I wrap my legs around his waist as best I can. But he’s so big I can’t get them to touch.
“What are we doing?” I say against his mouth. The feelings I’m having are overwhelming and foreign to me. I don’t know how to handle them, but I don’t want them to stop either.
“I’m going to spend the night making you fall in love so you’ll never leaveme.”
My heart skips a beat at his words, and I think I might already be there.
