fingers with hers, he brought her hand to his lips. The tip of his
tongue touched her knuckles. Her body went haywire at the small caress. When he
did it a second time, she nearly whimpered as her pussy clenched. Tugging her
an inch closer, he repeated the action on the inside of her wrist. This time,
she couldn’t stop the sound from escaping.
    They made it to her house and Drew had her out of the car
with her back pressed against her front door before she realized what was
happening. His wide shoulders protected her from the view of any passing
motorist as he settled his lips over hers. It was total consumption. There was
no other way Aubree could explain the way he kissed her. She swore she could
taste his lust, and pride roared through her with the knowledge a man such as
Drew wanted her. He’d said the words, but people lied and flirted all the time
without really meaning it. His touch was the most honest thing she’d ever
encountered. He was using every weapon in his arsenal against her. His tongue,
teeth and even the vibration of his voice as he encouraged her to go farther
with every passing second, combined with the way he touched her, stealing her
sense. With one hand buried in her hair and one gripping her ass, he kept her
pinned in place. When he pulled away, she could barely breathe.
    She could feel his heart racing beneath her fingertips, but
his breathing held steady. Keeping her gaze locked on his mouth, her heart
skipped a beat. The world went dark around the edges as her vision narrowed to
a pinpoint. Everything became crystal clear in her mind. He was a perfect
mixture of Max and Ryan. She’d never been able to choose between the two men
because together they possessed all the qualities she searched for in one man.
Drew had it all. He could be intense and serious, smiles and happiness. He was
dark and light with single-minded focus, which would leave her sated. He
watched her with hooded eyes, and the words fell from her lips before she could
stop them.
    “I don’t know what to do.”
    His mouth lifted in one corner and she stared at his bottom
lip, which was swollen from her kisses, in fascination. “Yes you do.”
    “I do?”
    “Yes. You want to invite me inside so I can show you what it
would be like if you chose to keep me.”
    She couldn’t stop the question. “Do you want to be kept?”
    “I’m fighting my nature here as we speak. I want to throw
you over my shoulder and steal you away from this place. I want to hide you
away while I show you every pleasure your body is capable of enduring. I don’t intend
to let you come up for air until I’ve touched, tasted, explored and penetrated
until you’ve accepted you are mine.”
    An image of Drew doing all the things he mentioned flashed
across her mind. A shiver of yearning ran through her as moisture flooded her
core. His nostrils flared, as if he could smell her lust. His hold tightened on
her waist. She licked her suddenly parched lips, and let her head fall back
against the door. “I hate wanting you so much,” she admitted. “I have this
burning desire to believe everything you say to me, but I don’t know how. It’s
not as if I think you’re dishonest. I can’t trust myself anymore.”
    “You cared about Ryan and Max, because you were friends.
Yes, it included benefits, but in the end, you weren’t upset by the outcome. That
says more than you realize. Maybe you’re angry over the secrets they kept from
you and the loss of their companionship but make no mistake, you are mine. You can keep fighting and I will keep chasing you, but in the end, the
result will be the same. It will be my name you’re moaning.”
    She stared speechless at his mouth. It was true. She
couldn’t deny a thing he said. She wanted to give in and he knew it. Gripping
the door frame, he boxed her in with his arms. “Do you need me to demand it and
set you free from guilt?” She remained stubbornly silent. “Open the door,
Aubree. You once told me
