“Did you pack enough for the entire weekend?” I don’t plan on letting her escape any time soon and definitely not before Monday morning.
“I did.” Harper smiles over her shoulder. “I’m pretty sure we stopped taking things slow a while back, so I packed most of my things. I figured I’d start moving all my stuff into your place this weekend.”
“Thank God,” I release on a breath, relieved we’re on the same page. “You’re stunning. You steal my ability to breathe.”
“Please keep breathing. I have plans for you later.” She wiggles her eyebrows and walks across the living room toward me. As she steps closer, I notice the slit going all the way up the side of the dark emerald green dress and groan. How the fuck am I going to keep all the assholes at this event from staring at my gorgeous little hellcat?
“Did you pick that dress out to torture me?” As sweat rolls down my back, I realize it’s going to be a long fucking night. The low neckline gives a generous hint of her luscious tits, and I’m not too pumped at the thought of other men drooling over my woman. When she spins a little bit, the tight silk hugs her generous curves, and my cock hardens in my dress pants. The sky-high black heels make her smooth legs look even longer, and I suddenly have a vision of them wrapped around my head as I eat her luscious little pussy. I take several deep breaths and adjust my pants, hoping to make more room for my steadily growing cock.
“This old thing?” She bats her eyelashes, but her innocent act doesn’t fool me one bit. “I just wanted to look good on your arm.”
“Hellcat, you would look better wearing a burlap sack than all of the other women there tonight.” It’s the truth. There isn’t a woman alive that could hold a candle to my soulmate. “I can see it’s going to be a long night.” I wrap my arms around her. “Between keeping all the assholes away from you and wanting to fuck you.”
“Wow.” She leans up and places a soft kiss on my chin. “Maybe we should stay in.”
“Nope.” I wrap my arm around her shoulders. “First, I’m going to show you off. Second, we’re going to enjoy the fancy dinner my sister already paid for. And then, we’ll go back to our place for dessert.” I wiggle my eyes at her and lead her down to the car.
“I like the sound of all of that. Especially our place.”
We walk into the crowded ballroom, and I look around, realizing I’d rather be back at his apartment enjoying his hot body than here. Leaning close to Falcon, I whisper, “So, how long do we have to stay here?”
He frowns down at me as worry fills his dark eyes. “Is everything okay?” He wraps an arm around my shoulders and pulls me close.
“Everything is great, but I’d rather be back at your apartment. Alone and naked.”
“Holy hell,” he mumbles against my ear and slides his hand down my back to give my rear end a little squeeze. “We won’t stay long. Let’s get a drink and check out the art they’re auctioning, and then we’ll sneak out.”
“Lead the way.” He wraps his hand around mine and leads me through the crowded room. Along the way, a few people stop us and shake his hand, but I don’t recognize any of them.
When he hands me a glass of champagne, I take a healthy sip, hoping the alcohol will ease my nerves. I feel someone step up behind me and turn to see an elderly man and a much younger woman standing next to us. “Falcon, I thought Raven was coming tonight.” He smiles and turns to me. “Aren’t you going to introduce me to your lovely companion?”
“Uncle Leo, I’d like you to meet Harper Sullivan, my girlfriend.”
“Nice to meet you, Harper.” The white-haired man takes my hand and brings it to his lips for a kiss. “Please call me Uncle Leo, and this is my wife, Jeanette.”
“Nice to meet you, too.” I’m not really comfortable calling some man I just met “Uncle,” so I leave that part off and turn to the woman who can’t be more than ten years older than me. “And you as well.” I turn and give his wife a fake smile.
“Uh-huh.” The sour look plastered on her face when she glances at me definitely ages her a few years. “I’m going to get a drink.”
Well, that went well, I think as Falcon pulls me close to his side and places a soft kiss on my forehead. “Ignore the bitch. She’s jealous that you’re the most gorgeous woman here,” he whispers for my ears only, then turns to the older man. “We’ll see you around, Uncle Leo.” Before the other man has the chance to respond, Falcon drags me back through the crowd toward the lobby.
