Because every single one of those decisions led me right to this very moment.

Of course, all that I’d endured should have also led me to being cautious. When it came to Leo, despite all my best efforts, it was unavoidable.

Something about him made me want to do the unexpected. I wanted to be a little reckless and do something out of character for me.

I abandoned all the nerves I’d initially felt the first few times I’d been around him, and there was no denying that on the surface it felt like I’d made the best decision I could have made.

How could I not?

Because, again, his hard body was pressing into mine while his hands roamed and his hot mouth kissed mine.

If I’d been thinking logically, I might have tried talking some sense into myself. It wasn’t that I thought whatever was ahead with Leo would be bad. It was quite the opposite, in fact.

I believed it would be spectacular, just like everything else he’d shown me about the kind of guy he was.

And that was just the problem.

It hadn’t been that long yet, which meant that perhaps I hadn’t gotten a taste of all there was to him. Maybe that should have given me reason for pause, but it didn’t. So what if I didn’t know every last detail about him. It wasn’t as though he knew all there was to know about me.

So, if this had been fate, if this had been the path I’d been on from the start, I didn’t see any reason to start questioning it now.

Not when this was happening. Not when it feltthisgood.

There was such a stark contrast between how things were progressing between us when it came to our relationship and how things were progressing between us in the physical sense.

Yes, we were at this point after such a short time, but where the two of us were right now was more than enough for me. Plus, Leo didn’t seem the least bit interested in rushing what was happening between us now.

There was something about Leo that was so powerful, so overwhelming, that I couldn’t begin to fight against what I was feeling.

I’d have been a fool.

Because his mouth had left mine, moved along my jaw, and dropped down to my throat. He inhaled the scent of me before his tongue licked me there.

A moan escaped, and everything about the way it sounded indicated precisely where I was.

Leo noticed, licked again, and moved to nibble on my earlobe.

Shivers ran across my skin as desire pooled between my legs. When another moan tore up from my throat, he pressed his hips forward. With his erection pressing into my lower belly, his mouth having joined his hand at my right shoulders, and his hand that had been on my left thigh creeping up toward my ass, I couldn’t stop myself from rolling my hips against him.

He groaned, his hand making it to my ass, where he squeezed me and groaned a second time.

“I love your fucking curves, Hanna,” he growled.

If I hadn’t already been a bundle of heightened nerves, drenched and ready for him, hearing those words in that voice from him would have done it.

“Leo,” I panted, lust dripping from that single word.

“What do you need?” he asked, his voice deep and gravelly.

I had what felt like a million thoughts in my mind about all of the things I wanted Leo to do to me, but there was no way for me to effectively and efficiently communicate any of them to him. So, I hoped he would know what I needed when I answered, “More.”

Not missing a beat, Leo’s body shifted slightly to the side as he brought both of his hands to the hem of my dress. His fingers curled around the bottom edge of it and hiked the material up and over my ass, exposing the sexy thong I’d worn especially for tonight.

Leo looked down at me, an intensity that I adored seeing taking over the look in his eyes.

“Are these for me?” he asked, trailing two of his fingertips along the silky material.

My lips parted, and my lungs seemed to have stopped functioning. He was so close to where I wanted to feel him touch me. The anticipation made it impossible to respond.
