“I bet you say that to all your conquests,” I sneer.
“Other than the girl I lost my virginity to and maybe a few girls here and there when I was still a teenager, I never kiss the women I’m with,” he says.
“You don’t?”
We talk about everything, except our sex lives, so this comes as a shock.
He shakes his head. “It’s too intimate.”
“And it isn’t with me?”
“No.” His answer is so definite. So steadfast. So unwavering. I don’t even know how to respond. “As far as you being a conquest, it’ll never happen.”
“What makes you so sure?”
“Short-lived relationships don’t allow me time to care. You and me, we’ve been going strong for over a decade. We’re solid. And I care about you.”
“As a friend.”
“As mybestfriend,” he corrects.
I’m not so easily swayed.
“What happened to,‘This is a bad idea’?” I retort.
“I freaked out.”
I explode in laughter. “Rod Wolfe loses his cool? That’ll be the day.”
“I didn’t expect to like kissing you so much.”
Oh, my God.
His words fan the fire raging wildly inside me.
“You liked it?” I ask in a small voice.
He lowers his head and skims his lips along my forehead to my ear. “Yeah. A lot. I jerked off thinking of your mouth, Dom.”
“You did?”
I really shouldn’t be this excited.
“Yeah. Last night when I got back to my place, and a couple times today. What can I say? That kiss had quite an effect on me.” I can’t believe his confession. Power fills me at the thought I could do that to a guy like Rod. “But nothing made me come harder than thinking of all the other things I want to do to you—dirty, filthy, lewd things.”
I heave a shaky breath.
His revelation renders me completely speechless. I’m sure my eyes are as big as saucers.
“Did I shock you… or turn you on?”
Both.
Heat travels from my nipples to my clit in a flash at the hunger I read in his gaze.
God, all these years, I thought my clit was broken.
I blink up at him, then laugh softly. “You’re pulling my leg, Wolfe.”
