Excerpt:
I help him unpack the food and gesture for him to sit in the chair on the opposite side of my desk.
As we both sit, he says, “You look gorgeous today, Pippa. You’ll forgive me if I slide one or two inappropriate looks your way during lunch. Completely unintentional, of course.” He says this with a straight face, and my cheeks and ears heat up. He’s in the mood for flirting openly today, and for some reason, I’m looking forward to whatever lunch might bring. This will be fun.
“You’re welcome to try,” I say. “But I warn you, the result might be more than you can handle.”
God, he’s beautiful. I allow my gaze to roam freely over his luscious lips and broad shoulders. My senses go into overdrive as I imagine the well-built muscles underneath his shirt, every ridge and every line. That’s when I realize he’s watching me while I’m watching him. He raises a brow, letting out a whistle.
“You’re undressing me with your eyes, and we’re not even halfway through lunch.” His voice reverberates in a lower octave than before. It sounds unbelievably sexy.
“It’s the testosterone you’re oozing. It clouds my mind, does unspeakable things to my senses.” The second the words are out of my mouth, I nearly choke on them. Did I really say that out loud? I’m on a slippery slope. I can feel it in my bones… and other places.
His hand freezes in the motion of cutting a slice of the duck.
A girl must always land on her feet. If I pass this as a voluntary comment, it’ll be less embarrassing.
“You’re not the only one who can use honesty as a weapon,” I inform him.
“Clearly.”
“Why did you say you’re damaged goods at the wedding?”
“Losing someone you love leaves a mark.” Judging by his clipped tone, he doesn’t want me to insist on this topic. I will drop it, but I want to make a point before.
“That doesn’t make you damaged goods. I wouldn’t call you that.”
“What would you call me?”
“Alice nailed it,” I answer, deciding to lighten the mood. “I can’t think of a better description than tall, dark, and handsome.”
“I see. Are you flirting? ‘Cause last week, you admonished me for giving you hot looks.”
“I think I am, although I haven’t flirted in a long time, so I can’t be sure. Can I test this out some more on you? Maybe I can get my game back.”
“You want to exercise your flirting muscles on me and plan to actually flirt with another man?” Eric sets his jaw, his gaze igniting me. “‘Cause then we’re having a problem.”
“Did you just go alpha on me?” I ask, fascinated.
“Do you like it?”
“Yeah.” I giggle, completely embarrassed.
