Paige’s POVI shook my head, unable to form a response or make sense of the pain and pleasure ricocheting through me.“Knox….” I was on fire. Skin blazing, tears and drool pooling on Knox’s lap, but it all burned so exquisitely I never wanted it to stop.He pushes his hand into my thighs to my heat, drawing moisture from there to my clit, and begins circling. I’m panting and moaning now on his lap. “Look at you, Midget. You’re a mess.” I didn’t have to see myself to know he was right.Wetness slicked my thighs, and every brush of air against my bare pussy triggered another needy shudder.His fingers continued torturing my clit, pushing inside me. I could feel my body responding to him, seeking more of his touch. “Seems like you need to come.” He taunted.My core clenched, and his hiss morphed into a curse.He pulled his fingers out of me and started pushing down my skirt. “Tell me, Midget.” Knox continued stroking my clit, sending another sharp burst of pleasure through my body. “T

Paige’s POV“Are you scared, Midget?”I stared at him for a moment, wondering how one person could look so annoyingly comfortable while making me feel like I had forgotten how to function.“Scared of what? You not living up to your promise, Knox?” I purred. “What happened to fucking the attitude out of me?” Despite my taunt, my core clenched at the sight before me.Knox's body could serve as the mold for a Greek god statue. Broad shoulders, perfectly carved abs…. and a long, thick cock that looked like it could wreck me with little effort.Fuck. My mouth dried.He leaned forward and, without taking his eyes off mine, slowly wrapped one hand around my throat. He squeezed hard enough to cut off my breath for several beats before he loosened his grip. I gasped in a lungful of air, my head swimming from the brief deprivation of oxygen.“One of these days,” he said. “That mouth of yours is going to get you into trouble.”“But not today, right?” I taunted even though I was shaking in my boots.

Paige's POVI stared at him. Knox was sprawled across the couch opposite me, one arm stretched along the backrest and the other resting casually on his thigh. The bastard looked like he was about to watch a show. I, on the other hand, was seriously considering turning around and walking straight back out of his apartment.“You’re joking, right?” I pressed my lips together, glaring at him. His mouth curved. “Do I look like I’m joking?” He chuckled, shifting slightly against the cushions. “Come on, Midget. Don’t tell me you’re getting shy again.”“I’m not shy.” I folded my arms across my chest. “I’m just not putting on a show for you.”“Paige.” I glanced at him. “Stay where you are, and spread your legs.” He commanded softly. My breath lodges in my lungs. I had never touched myself in front of anyone before; I barely did it on my own. But there was no way I was telling Knox that.“Take off your shirt, Midget. Let me see you.” He grins. “I promise not to leer too hard at your tits.

Knox POVThe moment Paige stepped into my apartment, I noticed the change in her.She wasn’t looking around with the usual curiosity or preparing some smart remark about my taste in furniture. I closed the door behind her.“Hey. Look at me, Midget.”Her gaze slowly lifted to mine.I leaned against the door, studying her for a moment. “What’s going on in that head of yours?”“Nothing.”“You’re a terrible liar.”She rolled her eyes, but the gesture lacked its usual confidence.I pushed away from the door and walked towards her. “Relax.”She let out a breath, nervousness pouring out of her. “So… how do we do this?”I raised an eyebrow. “Do what?”“Knox.”I grinned. “I like the way you say my name.”“Can you be serious for once?” She hesitated, then glanced down at herself. “Am I supposed to take my clothes off here?”I stepped closer, lowering my voice. “Calm down Midget,” I said. “We’ve done this before.”She shot me a look, wiping her palms against her thighs. “Yeah, we have, but not

Paige's POVI stared at my reflection in the mirror for what felt like the hundredth time.This was ridiculous.I wasn’t going on a date. I wasn’t meeting some mysterious stranger. I was simply going to see Knox.At midnight. In secret. While my best friend slept in the next room.I glanced down at my outfit, adjusted the hem of my top, then let out a frustrated breath. I had changed twice already, and somehow, every outfit seemed either too casual or like I was trying too hard.Which was stupid, because I wasn’t trying to impress him.My phone buzzed.Knox: Still waiting, Midget.I rolled my eyes.Me: Some of us have to sneak out without getting caught.Knox: Should I come in and help?My eyes widened.Me: Absolutely not.Knox: Then hurry up.I shook my head, grabbed my bag, and slipped my phone inside. After one last glance towards Leah’s bedroom, I quietly opened the front door.The lock clicked louder than I expected.I froze.Nothing.I exhaled and eased the door shut behind me.

Paige’s POVSaturday morning arrived with absolutely no intention of letting me sleep in.“Paige!” Leah shouted from the door.I groaned and buried my face deeper into the pillow. “Paige Bennett!”“What?” I mumbled.Leah laughed from somewhere outside my bedroom. “Get up. I’m bored.”I opened one eye and glanced at my phone. It was barely past nine.“It’s Saturday.”“Exactly. A perfectly good day to do something with our lives.”“Some of us have plans to do absolutely nothing, I want to.”“Well, those plans have been cancelled.”I heard her footsteps retreat down the hallway before my bedroom door swung open again.“Come on. Get up!”I pulled the duvet over my head.“Leah, I will actually throw something at you.”“Good. At least that means you’re awake.”A few minutes later, after she’d threatened to drag me out of bed herself, I finally surrendered. I pulled on a loose T-shirt and shorts, tied my hair into a messy bun, and wandered into the living room.Leah was curled up on the couc
