A deep, sexy sound rumbled up from him "You’re beautiful, Tess More beautiful than I could even iine"

My mouth dried as my body sizzled froht the urge to close s Anyone could drive by I had no idea where ere, how close to the frat house or any house Hell, the police could drive by, but I opened for hi s around ainst my hips All of this was insanely surreal It was like a dreahtened senses My heart was beating so fast I thought I’d surely have a heart attack

Jase’s quicksilver gaze held ht for it, as bold and determined as I had been with him, but thisthis was different Intimate in an entirely unique way I jerked when his wars--­a sweet, heart-­stopping kiss

And then he devouredThe strokes of his tongue were deter and shallow, and then relentless and deep My head fell back asheavily, my hps moved as raw sensations pounded me into the seat My body was a tempest I was out of control My hands slipped over the vinyl and my head hit the driver’s seat I archedtight Every part of ers, all the way down to e, when the lided into ht, ready to blooa hiss of pleasure from me "And I’ll never stop I swear to you"

I’d die if he kept up I was dying now I cried out, completely lost as my body spiraled and liquefied I couldn’t breathe as release whipped through s tre air There were these strange soft sounds echoing in the Jeep, and it took uely aware of hi myself on his lips I was in a daze as his hand shs, and he whispered s He pulledmy feet back in the Jeep I’d lost a shoe in the process He found it, slipping it onin breaths as he buckled me in A shiver danced over me as he ran a hand up my arm, to my cheek He turned my chin toward him I blinked my eyes open

"If you say we shouldn’t have done that or if you apologize" I yawned Sexy "I will punch you in the balls"

One side of Jase’s glistening lips hitched up "I wasn’t going to say either of those things"

"Oh?"

"No" His thu to tell you that was the bestthe best goddamn drive down these roads I’ve ever had"

Chapter Thirteen

Jase stopped at McDonald’s on the way back tous a sweet tea that we shared I think orked up quite a thirst I felt like I had no bones orin my seat, tethered down by the seat belt The euphoria seeped througha dance nu I was going to take first place

Actually, this was better More tangible If I closed s and his war over my most private place

Toht now, I didn’t care I didn’t want to think about anything I just wanted to ride this wave, because I hadn’t felt this good inspot near the entrance to the dorm I forced my lier side He opened the door as I unbuckled ers felt detached

When I slid out of the Jeep, I looked up into his eyes A big s my hand in his He closed the door and as I stepped forward, I stu his hold on my hand "Easy there You keep it up and I’ll think I really swept you off your feet"

I giggled, thinking that he’dHe led led up a bit I tripped and then laughed again

Jase stopped, looking down at me In the overhead laht he looked like soht out of a dream "Did you drink at the party?"

"Maybe?"

The relaxed half sht?"

"Ah, three? Four? I don’t know" I paused "I don’t really drink With dancing, you know? Can’t dance when I’ood"

"Shit" He hung his head and took a stuttered breath "You’re drunk?"

"God You do sound like a dad," I yakked

He shot ht, I wouldn’t say I was drunk" I yawned as I turned toward the dorlanced over my shoulder at him He still held on to my hand, but our arms stretched out "I wish I could teleport myself into my dorm"

His brows rose "Yeah, you’re a bit drunk"

Was I? I couldn’t tell The buzzy, happy feeling could be froas on his arood--­better than I’ve felt in as h rumbled from him "I’ll take that as a compliment"

"You should" We were still horribly far away froh Maybe he would stay I didn’t think Debbie would be back for a long time We’d have the place to ourselves And we’d have a bed and--­

"I didn’t know you’d been drinking"

Stopping at the somberness in his tone, I spun around and nearly lost my balance, which didn’t help ret it, don’t you?" My happy bubble was about to burst "I’ I wanted to do it Maybe it wasn’t ree with that," he co for a moment "It was brilliant, but" His features softened as he placed his large hand against , I would’ve stopped you"

Tilting ure out what that ?"

"I think you know the answer to that"

I guess I sort of did "But I’m not drunk I wanted to do that to you I wanted--­"

Jase groaned "You have got to stop talking like that"

"Like what?" My brows knitted

"Telling lad to hear that, but it ain But I wouldn’t want to use just ue" He pressed his forehead to mine, and I drew in a shaky breath at his closeness "I’d start with that, but I’d want to use my hands and I wouldn’t stop there"

His words scalded my cheeks, and maybe I was a bit more intoxicated than I realized, because a rush of boldness invaded me "I wouldn’t stop you"

He closed his eyes, and a deep sound came from the back of his throat "God, Tess"

I sed hard, and then tiltedup our mouths "Jase?"
