“What are you doing here?”

“You said you didn’t have time to get food between classes. If you’re taking tests all day, you need fuel. I brought you fuel.” He flashed a grin that sent her heart into overdrive. “Thai. I think you mentioned you liked Thai on our first date.”

He continued to advance until their bodies were so close his scent surrounded her, drowning out the Thai, the sea, the flowers and trees. All she could do was inhale deeply and take him into her lungs. He was potent. An aphrodisiac. There was no resisting the man, not when everything about him appealed to her. Not when their chemistry was so off the charts, she felt electrical sparks leaping back and forth between them.

Andrii cupped her face between his palms. One thumb slid in a caress over her jaw, tracing her bone. A shiver of awareness slid down her spine. She couldn’t find her voice; she could only stare rather helplessly up at him. Then the pad of his thumb slid over her lower lip and his eyes darkened to that sensual gray that caused a mini-explosion in her sex.

She wasn’t a sexual person. At least she’d never believed she was. She thought about sex, imagined and fantasized, but she didn’t have reactions to men. Standing in front of Andrii with the tips of her breasts pressed into his chest, she had a major reaction, and there was no hiding her arousal from him.

“Babe, you see me, what do you do?” He murmured the question, his tone as mesmerizing as he was.

She blinked rapidly, hoping to activate her brain cells. He induced brain fog, smothering all rational thought so she was reduced to a mass of overactive sexual cells.

“Babe?” he encouraged.

“Melt at your feet.” Her hand came up to cover her mouth. “I said that out loud, didn’t I?” Sadly, she knew she sounded and looked breathless because he robbed her of her ability to breathe.

“It isn’t safe for you to be so fuckin’ adorable, Zelie. Or sexy. Not here where we’re out in the open, and I have to protect you from me.”

“Protect me?” She echoed his declaration like a parrot. She was stuck on adorable and sexy. “I think it’s okay not to protect me from you.” If he meant more kisses, she was all for that.

Andrii shook his head, his expression soft. “I’m going to kiss you because I have to. I spent all night thinking of you. When I finally fell asleep, I dreamt of you.”

Her stomach did a slow roll. He was such a beautiful man. He might think he wasn’t, but she knew he was. She saw inside to the heart of him.

“I dreamt of you too,” she admitted, feeling the color rising under her skin and sweeping up her neck into her face.

His eyes went soft, adding another loop to the roller coaster that was her stomach. He bent his head to hers and took her mouth. She melted into him just as she had when he’d kissed her before. When he kissed her, the entire world changed. Shadows receded. Colors grew more vivid. Lightning and thunder mixed with explosive, colorful fireworks. She came alive, her entire body on fire, melting into his.

“We’re stopping,” he said gruffly. “It’s the only safe thing to do.” He took her hand and led her beneath a tree where he’d set out a blanket to cover the ground. “What kind of dreams did you have about me, baby?”

She was still caught in the foggy brain induced by his kisses and stupidly answered, “Erotic dreams.” The moment the truth slipped out, she clapped her hand over her mouth as if she could take it back. It was mortifying to know she had no control around him.

He flashed a grin at her, one that was truly heart-stopping. He had to stop, or she wouldn’t be able to concentrate on her next test—she’d be too busy daydreaming about him.

“I’m certain your dreams were pretty tame when compared to mine.” He indicated for her to sit on the blanket, then he dropped down beside her and placed the white carrying bags between them. “We aren’t discussing our dreams while you eat your lunch because if we do that neither of us is going to be worth shit the rest of the day.”

That was so true. Azelie nodded her understanding and concentrated her attention on the white boxes he pulled from the bags. The aroma made her stomach growl in anticipation.

“You said these tests were important. So, fuel first. You don’t have much time, and it’s important for you to eat.”

Her heart contracted, and that roller coaster in her stomach was on full loops. He was such a sweet man. The best of the best. She had no idea how she’d gotten so lucky, but she was going to give him everything he ever wanted or needed.
