She curled her hand around the nape of his neck "Well, you put it that way, I’d feel like an ass if I didn’t agree"

"You should" The grip on his neck tightened as he dragged his finger up and down, sinking in farther with every pass "Is there a reason why you wouldn’t want to?"

Her hips twitched under him "Iwhat if your brother doesn’t want me there?"
