really got you hot and—” “Horny?” Logan filled in the word. “Yes.” “Tate? You got me so hard this afternoon, I could have pounded a nail through a two-by-four.”

“Okay, but I won’t be held responsible for what happens to it on Sunday.” Tate decided to end with a tease—why the hell not at this stage? “No. I will be.”

I’m going to go and take a shower. If you want one, the second bedroom has an en suite. Then, Tate?” Tate was staring at him with unflinching focus, holding the cigarette down by his leg, forgotten. “I want to know all the things you want to do but shouldn’t.” Tate’s tongue came out to moisten his lips. Logan couldn’t help himself as he added, “So, we can start crossing them off the list.”

“Give you an inch…” “And I’ll want six or seven more,” Logan called back.

Then, as quickly as it started, the connection ended. A precursor of things to come? Tate wondered. Only time will tell.

“I can order a beer, you know,” Tate pointed out. “Yeah, but then I have to watch her drool all over you.” “Jealous?” Tate joked, grabbing a piece of celery and dunking it into the bleu cheese dressing. “Yes. I want you drooling all over me.”

“Because it’s been two weeks. Actually, less since it got physical. Cut me some slack. I just got used to the idea. I want to enjoy it before I have to defend it.” Logan closed his eyes and asked the one question he dreaded, “And will you?” “Will I…” “Defend it?”

“Everything I want, and everything I crave, is you.

“You’ve tested me and my patience for the final time today. You better be ready tonight. I’m going to enjoy making you pay for that particular cocktease.”
