“And what if I want you?” I ask softly.
“I’m here, aren’t I?”
“You are. You keep coming back. For what? What is this between us?”
He slides a hand into my hair and leads me to lean into him again. “It’s whatever you want it to be, gorgeous. With one exception.”
“What’s that?”
“It’s not just sex. That’s why I won’t sleep with you. I won’t let this be just sex.”
That makes me smile. “Why me, Asher? I’m just some small-town slut with too much baggage. You could have anyone.” I can feel his heart beating against my cheek and its steady pace increases at my question. “Why me?”
“Sweetheart, when you know the answer to that question, we won’t be talking anymore.”
I pull back and blink at him. “You’ll be gone?”
His lips quirk. “I’ll be inside you.”
