The Cougar's Wish (Desert Guards)
““Jesus,” she whispered and patted down the wild hair sticking out in her periphery. “Every single time he comes here, I look like I’m recovering from flu.”
Steven chuckled low. “It’s all right, dew drop. You look pretty good to me, not that my opinion’s worth spit.”
“Change that ‘p’ to an ‘h,’ and that’s what you’re full of.”
“Have I lied to you yet?” Reaching blindly behind him, he found her forearm and gave it a tender squeeze. It may as well have been an outright solicitation for the way her... body was responding to it. That desperate cat inside her practically stood up on her hind legs and waved her paws for attention, and with Belle’s brain being in the disordered state it was, she couldn’t remember why it was that she wasn’t supposed to let him touch her.
If he’d been a Cougar, he might have been able to smell her scent changing—a surge of adrenaline and pheromones—but fortunately, he was oblivious.
Still, he was standing too damned close.MoreLess
