“Whatever.”
She looked to be thinking over what I was saying and as she was doing so, I pulled my cell out and ordered another Uber. This one was two minutes away.
“What’s the address of where you’re staying Roe?”
“I’m not coming with you Harley.” She took a step back.
Her saying my last name made me smile something stupid. I hadn’t heard anyone call me by my last name since back in Athens. I don’t even think she noticed that she called me that.
“Yeah, you are.”
She scoffed.
“You think because you gave me a toe-curlin’ kiss that transported me to a whole ‘nother planet I’ll leave the comfort of my Bed & Breakfast to come stay with you? Now why would I go and do somethin’ stupid like that?”
The way she was talking to me was making me want to show her who I’ve become a little too quickly than I wanted. My lip curled at the mention of a Bed & Breakfast, but I smirked at the description of how I kissed her.
“Toe-curlin’ huh?” The hint of my southern drawl mixed with my New York accent made for a strange combination.
She narrowed her eyes at me and for some reason, I was enjoying seeing her like this. Untamed was the only word that I could describe this moment. I told myself to allow her to talk to me like this until I had her where I needed her to be then…
“I can’t stay with you. It would be inappropriate. I have a boyfriend.”
I chuckled.
“Not the way you were kissing me back, you don’t.”
“I blame it on the alcohol.”
“Baby, the alcohol isn’t what made you kiss me like that. Even now, you can feel me inside your veins. I’ve never left, have I?”
“You shut your stupid mouth Harley. Inside my veins? I don’t think so.” She said as the Uber pulled up.
I smirked.
“Fine. Let’s make a bet.” I approached from a different angle. One which I knew she would take the bait. She was always so competitive with me.
“What kind of bet?” She crossed her arms over her chest drawing my attention to them. I licked my lips.
“A bet that if I kiss you again and this time, you moan, you’ll come with me.”
She eyed me up and down then smirked.
“Boy, ain’t no way in heaven or hell can you make me moan with just a kiss. I’m not wired like that.”
If only she knew I had kissed her the way I wanted to make love to her soul. I think she also forgot she told me she had a fake boyfriend.
“So, what’s it gonna be Rory?” She rolled her eyes at me knowing I knew how much she hated that nickname. Oh well, I felt like being childish.
She moved forward, ever so slowly, closing the space between us, I didn’t hesitate as I leaned down wrapping my arm around her waist pulling her closer. I rested my forehead on hers, grinning like the devil himself. I didn’t wait as my other hand came up and wrapped around her neck. She gasped as I transformed into the man I’ve become, the man she hadn’t met til’ now. Good luck Roe. As I said those words in my head, my lips attacked hers. She froze at first not sure what to do but then she came around as I possessed her mouth, my tongue maneuvering as if she opened up her thighs to me and I was tasting her at her very core.
Our kissing turned feverish, unyielding, overbearing, domineering stealing all the breath we had inside of our bodies and my hand around her throat became tighter. I took and gave her breath as if I supplied it to her in the first place. She shouldn’t have accepted the bet as I heard her hoarse moans escape her mouth in between kisses. Her body rocked into mine causing friction between us. I slowly but reluctantly pulled my lips away from her, loosening my grip on her neck, but not removing my hand. I caressed her neck with my thumb as I waited for her to open her eyes. After a beat or two, she opened them, and I knew the look in her eyes as she registered what just happened. Monroe Rodricks had signed her life over to me, the devil in disguise.
