Page 36 of Virgin for Next Door Wolf Daddy
“Anything you make would be delicious.” He grinned wolfishly at her.
“Why, sir, are you flirting with me?”
“I’m trying, why?”
“Maybe you should stick with asking me my sign or saying something like, ‘did it hurt when you fell from heaven?’” she teased.
“How about, ‘Do you have a sunburn or are you always this hot?’”
“That’s terrible,” Talia said, wrinkling her nose.
“I’ve got a hundred more,” he said.
“The problem is that they’re so goofy that they probably work on most women.”
“Would they work on you?”
She leaned close to him and said, “Well, now, I guess that all depends on who’s spouting them.”
“Me.”
“They would probably work, especially if you’re buying me a drink at the same time.”
He handed her a beer and grinned.
She laughed.
Sebastian couldn’t remember when he last had so much fun just being goofy. She made him smile just by hanging out.
“Soup’s on,” he said, putting the hamburgers on a plate and piling on some mac and cheese.
“That was the first time I’ve ever seen mac and cheese made on the grill.”
“All you have to do is boil water. It boils just as easily over a flame as it does on an electric eye.”
“True enough,” she said.
She took a couple of bites and said, “This is delicious.”
“I work my own blend of spices into the meat before forming the patties.”
“What spices are those?”
“Top secret. Sorry.”
“You don’t want to tell me so I’ll keep coming back for more. I know how you people work. The first burger is free to get me hooked, and then the price keeps going up,” Talia said in mock seriousness.
“I guess that works if hamburgers are your drug of choice.” Sebastian laughed.
“I’m addicted to eating. I try it at least three times a day, usually with nibbles in between.”
They ate in a comfortable silence for a minute and then Sebastian said, “I love spending time with you. There is a connection between us. I would like to see where our relationship goes.”
Her face lit up and she smiled widely. “I kind of like you, too. You’re alright. I’m game.”
He laughed and said, “You’re a booger.”
“Thank you.”
