“I'm not everyoneelse.”

“Oh, come on, Cary. I got fired. I lost my sponsors. I’m not as smart as you, but I’m not stupid. I hear the whispers andlaughter.”

I jerk her against me so close that her breath fans across my face. “Look at me. Do I look like I’m whispering orlaughing?”

Her body goes limp in my hands. “You said you hatedme.”

“I did. I do. Damn it, Shiloh. I’ve hated you for seven years, and all I’ve wanted was to make you pay for fucking me out of living mydream.”

“Andnow?”

“All I want is to fuck a livingdream.”

Jesus, I mean that. I want to run my hands all over her body just to feel her skin slide against my rough palms. I want to thrust every inch of my cock inside her and hear her scream my name.But most of all, I want to ruin her for any otherman.

Before she can say anything else, I grasp her ass and life her onto my lap. As if automatic, she wraps her legs around my waist and locks her ankles around my back. I’m ready for more, but instead, Shiloh is studying me with her head cocked to the side. Her eyes are a little glassy, and her chest is flushed. The whole image ignites an animalistic response inme.

She wants to study me? I’ll give her plenty to analyze later on. I have seven years of pent up lust for her ready to explode. Maybe one night with her will quiet the noises in my head and I’ll be able to think with my brain instead of mydick.

With my hands still on her hips, I pull her against me and crush our lips together. As our mouths fuse and our tongues battle for dominance, I know I’mfucked.

So fuckingfucked.

All I taste is rain and sunshine. How the hell does one woman taste like rays of goddamn sunshine? If her mouth is this bright and warm, I’m almost coming in my pants thinking about what the rest will taste like. Fucking rainbows?What else isleft?

“Cary.” She pulls back, the lines around her eyes filled with worry. “Please don’t hurt me. I can’t take it. Not fromyou.”

And this is where the world-famous model seals her fate. As easy as that, she’s handed me the keys to her destruction. Mine for thetaking.

“Off.” Gathering the bottom of her tank top, I pull it over her head. “I’m not going to hurt you. Unless you want me to,” I add with a wickedgrin.

I can’t get her bra off fast enough. I’ve become somewhat of a pro, but this one is obviously expensive with a hook in the front and reinforced buckle that I swear to shit I’m about to chew off. Shiloh tosses me a seductive little grin and with one flick of the wrist, has it unhooked andopen.

God bless Victoria’sSecret.

Flipping us around, I press her back against the leather, and her neck drops back, disappearing over the edge of the couch as I roll the tip of my tongue over a nipple. Shiloh shudders, making me smile as I close my lips around it and suck it deep into the heat of mymouth.

“Cary…” A moan rumbles in her throat as her fingers weave through my hair. She wants me, but I have to make her sayit.

“What do you want,Shiloh?”

“You.”

“What do you want me todo?”

“Fuck me,” shepants.

“Notyet.”

Shiloh’s flushed head pops up, her eyebrows drawn together. “What the hell? Cary, I just told you to fuck me. How much clearer can thatbe?”

“You want clear?” I say, wrapping my hand around her jaw. “Fine, how’s this? I plan to spend so much time between your legs that you’ll forget about every man you’ve ever known—evenWill.”

At the mention of my best friend’s name, Shiloh stiffens and jerks my hand away from her face. I know I should say something, but all I can do is stare as she slides out from under me and sits on the edge of the couch with her arms wrapped around herwaist.

“You say you’ve changed, but you’re stilllying.”

“How the hell do you figure that?” Iyell.
