“Do you wish the same thing?”
“Wish what thing?” I lost track of the conversation.
“Getting back together with Daniel.”
“Why do you keep bringing him up?” I made a face.
“Because he keeps showing up in your life, and I’m afraid you…” He muttered something I didn’t catch.
“I what?”
“Never mind.”
“What?” I tickled his chin. He was staring out the window.
“Are you mad?”
“No.”
“Your jaw says otherwise.”
“I’m not mad. Not at you.”
“H’mm.” After a beat, I said, “Seb.”He looked down.
I looped an arm around the back of his neck, pulled him close, and planted a loud smack on his lips.
“Mwah! There. Don’t be mad.
Then I released him. Job done.
He did something. The backseat divider clicked into place.
Then he was back. In my face. Lips on mine.
It was immediate. It was forceful.
It was sucking all the air right out of my lungs.
I couldn’t breathe except by borrowing the air from him.
He shared. Generously.
Sebastian kissed me like he had things to say but mere words would suffice.
I kissed back like I understood.
My tongue tingled, this time not from alcohol.
I pushed him back, panting.
“No.”His lips were still parted, eyes glazed over with lust, but his hands dressing my waist stilled.
“Sorry, I”
“No, I don’t.”
“What?”I took a moment to catch my breath.
“No, I don’t have feelings for him.”Then I added, “Your question. Earlier. You asked if I still have feelings for him. The answer’s no.”For a second, everything was still.
Then, with a quiet exhale, he murmured, “Elean.”The way he said my name made my ears tingle.
I flopped back down onto his lap like a limp rag.
“For Daniel Granger, you know. I don’t have feelings for Daniel Granger.”He chuckled, chest rumbling.
“I know, Elean, I get it now.”
“I have feelings. Just not for him.”
“H’mm.” He nodded, patting my hand like he was soothing a toddler.
“For you.”
“H’mm-what?”
“I have feelings for you.” I licked my lips, savouring the aftertaste of that kiss.
“For you. Sebastian Laurent.”
“Yes, that’s my name.” His voice had gone low.
“I have feelings, and those feelings are for you, Sebastian Laurent,” I summarised.
“I hear you. Loud and clear.” He leaned in again, but I pushed his fade away.
“No oxygen,” I said.
“Do it later.”He laughed and straightened.
“All right.”The car stopped.
Sebastian carried me into the house.
The driver might have been watching, but I no longer cared.
Who wanted to walk on their own two legs when they could be carmed everywhere?
My head was still swimming, but the room wasn’t double anymore Sebastian laid me down on the bed.
I sighed into the soft mattress.
“Shower?” he asked.
“Or dinner? Rest? I’ll ask Carmen to make you something. Soup, maybe.”
“No.”
“No soup, or no shower?”
“No nothing.” I kicked off the blanket he’d just tucked over me.
“H
“Do you want some water?” He brought me a glass.
I drained it.
“More?”I nodded.
He fetched another glass.
I drained that, too.
“Still thirsty?” He frowned.
“What kind of drink did you order at that bar?”
“Drink, yes, I want.”
“No. I can get you more plain water.”
“Plain.
“I wrinkled my nose.
“Bland. Meh.”Or sparkling. Or lemonade?”
“I know!” I snapped my fingers.
“I want…”
“Yes?”
I vanked him to me and kissed him.
“You.”Sebastian’s pulse surged, his body burning with an intensity that made him want to tear off his shirt, shred his coat, and set fire to his trousers.
The source of the heat was currently twined around him like a vine, rubbing against him like a cat marking its territory.
After she’d kissed him-long, hard, like she was reclaiming all the oxygen he’d stolen from her earlier-she’d hung to him like a tree sloth.
He’d held her there, standing.
They stayed like that until she was beginning to nod off.
Gently, he tried to pry her hand from his neck.
“Come on, you need sleep,” he murmured, voice rough.
“No…” she protested, her grip tightening on him.
“Clothes. Off.”
“You want me to take off your clothes? Change you into pyjamas?” He was dying to oblige.
“No. You. Clothes. Off.”
“Elean-“
“Off.” She began demonstrating, as though his hesitation was due to a lack of understanding.
Sebastian sighed as she popped off the top two buttons of her silk blouse.
