I want you and it’s fucked because I can’t act on it.” He confesses. “Usually I go balls in, get you in my bed and it’s done. But you’re different. I don’t want to scare you away after Demon, I want to keep you close and I don’t want a quick fuck. I want to keep you around.”
I understand what he’s saying, and his words terrify me. I don’t know what to say. Am I ready for this? Is it too soon?
“Brandon,” I begin but I don’t know what else to say.
“You don’t have to say anything.” He interrupts. He leans in close, breathing on my face and I close my eyes. His nose and forehead touches mine and I melt. “Can I kiss you?”
I’m shocked that he would ask that. He seems like the guy to take and not ask, but he said he cares for me so maybe he’s worried how I would take such an aggressive move. It’s probably the right thing to do. I might have fought back and ran away. I don’t want that and with a simple and quick nod, Brandon’s lips cover mine. I’m taken away with his kiss, my lips surrender to his and he takes control. Once he feels I’m ok with this, he finally shows me who he really is. Brandon captures my face with his large hands, tangling his fingers in my hair and is releasing a groan into my mouth. The room begins to spin and if I didn’t know any better, I would think Brandon has supernatural powers because I’m floating. I sigh in response as Brandon growls, trying to dig deeper into the kiss and press me closer against the wall. I feel his large, hard erection pressing against me and break out in a needy sweat. I haven’t felt like this in a long fucking time, it’s euphoric!
Not only have I never been kissed like this, but I’ve never felt this heated from just a kiss. This is all new territory to me. After being Demon and Strike’s play thing, I’m not used to this anymore and I have no doubt that if I wasn’t so wrapped up in the kiss, then I would be freaking out.
The kissing slows and I back away slightly. Letting my heart calm down and recover. Brandon returns to resting his forehead on mine. “Shit, Lauren.”
I laugh, knowing the feeling.
“I will wait. I know you’re not ready, but I will wait until you are.” He grabs my arse tightly in his grip and growls. “I know you’re fucking worth it.”
I slap him away, still laughing. “Cheeky.”
We then leave, walking side by side and when we return to the bench I’m happy to see the whores are gone. Natasha quickly grabs me and wants to know what’s happened.
“I’ll tell you later.” I whisper back.
Baby catches my eye and winks, causing Brandon to pull me closer to his side.
“Watch yourself.” Brandon warns and Baby gives him the middle finger in return.
For the rest of the night we have fun. A lot of laughs are shared and stories exchanged. For the first time in a very long time, even before The Devil’s, I feel like a part of something.
Chapter 40
During the next day, I’m feeling a little weird as I watch Brandon. We haven’t spoken at all today and I can’t help but feel a little vulnerable.
“You’re staring.” Elise whispers beside me and I snap my eyes away from Brandon.
“I was not.” I deny.
Elise and Natasha laugh in response. Once they get back into conversation, I drift away again and let my eyes find Brandon and when I do, he’s looking right back at me. I feel like I’ve been caught out and he sends me a wink before returning back to the club members he’s talking to.
“Enjoying the view?” Natasha asks me. “Boy, I’m so glad we’re having breakfast together.”
I roll my eyes at Natasha’s sarcasm. “Shut up.”
“He’s not ignoring you.” Elise adds. “He’s just talking club business and being the Vice President has its disadvantages. Everyone wants to talk to you and pass messages onto the President. That’s why he turned it down; he said he couldn’t deal with that.”
“Your dad turned being VP down?” Natasha asks.
“Yep.” Elise laughs. “My mum was a little annoyed because Laura was ranked above her for so long. When the opportunity came along to be just underneath her, she wanted it.”
“Surely that doesn’t matter.” I add. “Everyone’s the same here, right?”
