“I am okay. Today is a hot one.” I sigh.
Thankfully, my voice is steady, and does not give away how he makes me feel.
“That is true. I had a run for the club and working in this heat can be a killer. Thankfully, we are done.” He looks away when he speaks, and something unsettling stirs in my stomach.
“A run?” I ask, confused, but he brings his gaze back to me.
He smiles, albeit it feels forced, but it still has the desired effect on me. “It is like a job. Me and one of my brothers had to go and collect a vintage car. I will be restoring it.”
“Ah, I see. I would love for my car to be an Autobot, so I could change my car up whenever I felt like it,” I state, then I cringe inwardly.
Freaking hell. He already knows I am a nerd for Transformers, but it feels silly bringing it up in conversation.
“Now that would save me time and money.” He laughs.
He nudges my shoulder. ”Still think that Shia is the best?”
I scoff and pull back from him. “Of course. Mark Wahlberg is a good actor, but I do not think he fits the franchise.”
“Fair enough. What about the Furious movies? You still not watching the new ones?”
I shake my head. “Nope. I stopped after Paul Walker died. To me, they made no sense after that.”
He leans in, and I can feel his breath on my face “Now that, I have to agree with you on.”
Our gazes meet, my heart stutters in my chest, and it is like I cannot look away from his sweet blue eyes. I feel like he has trapped me and is not willing to free me.
Something passes between us. Logan must sense it too as he leans in closer, and his lips brush over mine. They are soft and warm, and make me want more.
The sensation of his lips pressed against mine is like a tsunami of warmth through my body. His hand settles around the back of my neck, keeping me close. It is commanding, sexy— and I like it.
A tingle runs through my body, while he kisses me.
His tongue dips into my mouth and I moan.
He tastes like coffee and something sweet. His grip tightens on me before he breaks the kiss, leaning his head against mine.
“Fuck, if I do not stop now, I will give everyone in the street a show.”
“Oh.” I blink away, leaning back and looking around.
No one is looking our way, but I still feel like we have been caught.
“Yeah. ‘Oh’.” He laughs.
Sipping my drink, I give myself a second or two to gather my thoughts. The coldness of the drink is helping to cool me down after that hot kiss.
I have dreamed of this man kissing me for years, but him being with Val was a big obstacle, but it seems like Logan is not having any issues with wanting to start something with me.
Logan fidgets next to me, I frown looking at the man who suddenly looks uncomfortable, he rubs the back of his neck, and Glory picks up on the sudden change from him.
My stomach starts to tighten.
She comes to me, resting her head on my thigh, as if she knows that whatever Logan is about to tell me I will not like.
“So listen.” He clears his throat, then takes a deep breath, looking anywhere but me.
Lead fills my stomach, as thoughts ofI knew it was too good to be truesettle in my chest. He regrets kissing me because of Val; it was all a ploy. To what end, I have no idea.
