Victor followed her closely past the gate and stood directly behind Summer and breathed into her neck. “I’d love for you to show me, Summer.”
“Greedy,” she riposted easily. “Have a little patience.” Grinning, she pushed up on her toes just enough to whack Victor on the chin. “I’m not a headrest, darlin’.”
Victor grunted in surprise. “Oi!” He feigned hurt and mock glared at her. “That was entirely uncalled for love.” He rubbed his chin a little, further playing up the drama. After a little bit he gave up and pouted for a moment, looking very much like a puppy.”
His expression turned into something just a tad more serious for a moment as he looked around at his surroundings. “I can be patient….when I want to be.” He added before cocking his head. “Have you lived here long?”
“Six or eight years … I’d have to stop and think about it. Why?” Turning around and shutting the door behind him, Summer smiled up at Victor. “It’s not much of a place, but it’s mine.”
Victor nodded, shrugged then smiled down at her. “I was just curious. In the past I haven’t really stayed in one place for more than a year or two.” He gave another shrug then took her hand in his. “It’s a nice place love.” Victor looked around him some more, the apartment really did have a nice feel to it. He looked at her then, wondering what she all had in mind.
“Maybe you’ll be able to stay for a while in the city.” A quick spin had Victor’s arm wrapped around her. “So where were we? Oh, right,” Summer winked. “You were trying to freeze me to death.”
“That’s the plan love.”
He laughed at her words a bit then bent his head to resume what he had been doing at the park. He breathed her in and smiled against her skin as he kissed his way over her shoulder, to her neck where he let his tongue flick out a bit. Victor turned her so that she was facing him, continuing his attention to her neck before moving to her jaw. “You have the most intoxicating scent, Summer,” he whispered against her skin.
She had to tip her head back, rocking a little and trusting him to hold her. “Hmmm, how is that? If you say anything that reminds me of Twilight … ” The shiver induced by his mouth below her ear interrupted the end of her sentence.
Victor growled low in his throat. “Trust me, I don’t sparkle and I am most definitely not going to treat you as if you were made of glass.”
Pleased by her shiver, Victor focused his attention to that one spot. He alternated between licking and grazing his teeth gently, so as not to pierce the skin, at the area below her ear. He moved his hands to her hips and turned them so that her back was against the wall. He was definitely aroused as he nipped at her but he forced himself to pull back for a moment and look at her. “You’re honest, you’re sexy, you’re confident and you’re kind. Your scent tells me about who you are. And you are intoxicating.”
“Ohhh, trying flattery now? Victor, darling,” she drawled, exaggerating her southern accent as hard as possible, “if I didn’t know better I would think you only wanted to sleep with me.” She had to press her lips together to keep from smiling, but the crinkles around her eyes gave her away.
