Page 68 of Their Naughty Student
I swallowed hard when his eyes drifted to my mouth again.
“I take it the date went well?”
“Better than,” he said on a huff, then walked around to the other side of the room before returning.There was nowhere to go in the small space, but somehow Edge managed to pace, his long legs eating up the ground quickly.He glanced around the room.“How long are you staying here?”
Assuming he was referring to my current living arrangements, I shrugged.“Until I figure out what I’m gonna do.”
Edge appeared confused.“About?”
“Whether I’m gonna rent or buy.House or condo.All that fun adult shit.Now that I’ve accepted the job, I figure I’ve gotta make a decision.”
Edge nodded, his eyes still locked on my face.
I didn’t know what came over me, but the next thing I knew, I was on my feet, stalking him for a change.I didn’t stop until I was pressed up against him, our mouths fused together once more.Now that he’d kissed me, I needed to taste him again.I’d spent years thinking about this, wondering what it would feel like.Even my wildest fantasies weren’t as great as his fucking kiss.
This time, Edge took my face in his hands.Within seconds, he reversed our positions until I was pressed up against the wall.My hands wanted to wander, but I refrained.It wasn’t fucking easy, either.I felt like a soda bottle, shaken and ready to explode.
Having been friends for so long, we knew pretty much everything about each other, including the fact that we were both bisexual.It wasn’t something we tended to discuss, but it wasn’t something we denied, either.And yet, right here, with Edge’s mouth crushed to mine, I forgot every single man I’d ever been with.
“I’m not sure what we’re doing here,” Edge said softly when he pulled back.“But whatever it is, I want to see where it goes.”
I nodded.He could strip me right here, and I wouldn’t complain.Hell, I was almost to the point I would beg.
Almost.
However, I knew what Edge was feeling, the frustration coursing through his veins.He’d gone out with Jamie tonight, and if his date had been half as good as mine, I figured he was rock hard and about to detonate.
“Are you lookin’ to relieve some stress?”I asked, wondering if that was the reason he’d shown up here.
He stepped back, frowned.“No.”
“Are you sure?”
“Positive.”
I stared at him.“Then why’re you here?”
Edge’s hand came out, gripped my jaw firmly as he leaned in.“Because I can.Do you have a problem with that, Cav?”
I shook my head, kept my mouth closed.Defiance was a bitter taste in my mouth, but there was a small part of me that didn’t want to fight him off.Being the alpha was second nature for me, yet it seemed I was right; it was possible for submission to exist within domination.I was living proof.
Not that I wanted to submit to him, but I didn’t feel the need to dominate him, either.
“Are you sure?”Edge’s voice was low, hard.
I nodded.
“Because this…” His eyes dropped to my mouth.“I’ve been wanting to do that for a damn long time.”He held my stare for a moment, those bright blue eyes glittering with intent.“And now that I have, it’s going to be damn hard to resist you.”He released my jaw.“But I will.”
“What?”I frowned.“Why?”
“Because that’s the way it works,” he said as he stepped toward the door.
I couldn’t move, only watch as he stood there staring at me, one hand on the knob.His gaze bounced from my eyes to my lips before settling on my eyes one last time.
“Good night, Cav.”
“Night.”
