I rose onto my toes, my lips brushing the taut line of his jaw.

My breath was light and scalding against his skin.

"Tempting you?"

"Didn't you lecture me on cause and effect, Mr. Knight?"

"You kiss me like that in an elevator, and now you're playing the saint?"

I tilted my head, my almond-shaped eyes blazing with open defiance.

My voice dropped to a husky, intimate murmur.

"Teasing and then putting me on ice... What's the point of all that heat if you're jus

  • His Dad Calls Me Baby   Chapter 058: Don't Stop

    After what felt like an eternity, the car rolled to a silent stop.The driver's voice rumbled low through the partition."Mr. Knight, we've arrived."The arm coiled tight around my waist finally slackened.Alexander slowly sat up straight, pinching the bridge of his nose. The haze of alcohol in his eyes seemed to clear slightly, or maybe just dig deeper.He didn't look at me. He just opened the door and stepped out.I followed.The evening air hit my face, cooling some of the heat still burning under my skin.Alexander stood by the car, his silhouette stretching long under the streetlights. His stance wavered just slightly.He turned and held out his hand to me.Palm up.The posture still carried that habitual command of a man used to giving orders. The message was clear:he still needed steadying.I looked at his outstretched hand, then at his eyes, which had sharpened back to something close to sober.My molars ground

    The call ended abruptly.I stared at my phone, frowning slightly.Luke Cole?That notorious playboy friend of Alexander's?He wanted me to head to a bar right now and pick someone up?Alexander was drunk?The thought barely crossed my mind before I dismissed it.Someone with that level of self-control would never let himself get to the point where someone had to come collect him.This had Luke's prank written all over it.Whatever. I'd go.Besides, I hadn't seen that ice sculpture of a man in three days.It was the perfect excuse to show up, make my presence known, and stay on his radar.---Alexander came back from the bathroom.He sat down and noticed his phone had been moved from the couch to the coffee table.He shot a look at Luke."You touch my phone?"His voice was cold, roughened by whiskey.Luke clamped a cigar between his teeth, a shit-eating grin spreading across his face."Took

    Every word I'd said hit Song right in the chest.She sucked in a sharp breath.Then she grinned, excitement flickering in her eyes."So we just sit tight? Watch her dig her own grave? Wait for her to show her hand?""Exactly."I leaned back in my chair."Winnie's the type who never knows when to stop. Thinks she's smarter than everyone else.""With the Breaking Free exhibit coming up, she won't be able to help herself. She'll touch the one wire she shouldn't.""All we have to do is make sure the opportunity lands right in front of her. Quietly."Song rubbed her hands together."Should we set something up? Lay a trap? Dangle some bait?"I shook my head."We just do what we're supposed to do. Let everything else play out.""The wind will blow her where she needs to go."---That night, The Lounge rooftop bar overlooked the city lights sprawling below.Alexander sat deep in a velvet couch, legs crossed.

    The plane touched down smoothly at JFK, the final shudder of the landing gear vibrating through the cabin.My lashes fluttered.Consciousness floated up from a dreamless sleep.I'd slept like the dead, sunk in something warm and soft as clouds.I blinked awake and realized my forehead was pressed against the curve of Alexander's neck.The hand that had been warming my stomach was now draped loosely around me, tucking me halfway into his hold.The blanket was wrapped tight around me. Warm.I lifted my head. Focused.And saw a small, dark damp spot on Alexander's shoulder.Drool?My brain short-circuited.Mortification.Absolute, soul-crushing mortification.I'd slept on his shoulder the whole flight?Fine. But I'd drooled?On anyone but him?I wanted to die."Awake?"His low voice rumbled above me.He rolled his stiff shoulder slowly."Mm..."I wanted to disappear into the blanket

    My breath hitched. That scorching implication sank straight into my chest, searing me from the inside out."Mr. Knight, that threat sounds an awful lot like an invitation,"I said, forcing my fluttering heartbeat to steady. With a swift movement, I shoved a piece of the hawthorn cake into his slightly parted lips."Eat up. Shutting you up is going to take a lot of energy."Alexander's Adam's apple bobbed as the sweet and sour flavor melted on his tongue. The dark currents in his eyes swirled deeper, heavy with unspoken intent.He didn't say a word, only chewed slowly, his gaze never leaving mine.The car glided smoothly to the entrance of the VIP terminal. Jasper was already waiting. He pulled the door open, took the keys from Alexander, and handed over the boarding passes."Sir, everything is handled. The private lane is clear—you can board whenever you're ready.""Good."Alexander nodded and stepped out of the car.I moved to follo

    The sun dipped toward the horizon, bathing the small courtyard in a warm, amber glow.With our flight scheduled for eight that evening, Alexander and I were getting ready to head to the airport.Sir Arthur stood at the gate, his rough, calloused palm landing on Alexander's shoulder with a firm clap."Alright, I know you young people have plenty on your plate—I won't keep you."He waved a hand, his voice still booming with authority."Alexander, drive carefully. Stay safe."Alexander gave a respectful nod."Take care of yourself. Call me anytime you need anything.""Yeah, yeah, you're such a nag."Sir Arthur shot him a look, half scolding, half smiling, but his gaze softened the instant it landed on me.He pressed an oil-paper package into my hand."Sweetheart, I made these dried tangerine and hawthorn cakes myself. Eat them on the way."A playful glint crept into his tone."If this one gives you any trouble, you come s
