Steel promise

Chapter 30


“Does anybody need tea?” Nana asks, however Saul’s on his ft earlier than she will be able to stand, already filling the kettle.

“You don’t transfer,” he says. “I can deal with tea.”

She seems at me, eyes huge, and slowly nods. Marry him, she mouths, and I roll my eyes at her.

However I watch Saul. A few of Jason’s hesitancy should’ve rubbed off on me, as a result of Saul’s being just a little too charming. He’s clearly making an attempt to make everybody like him, doing his greatest to be a superb visitor, saying and doing all the proper issues, however it solely makes me surprise. How a lot of that is the actual Saul? And the way a lot is as a result of he needs to get one thing out of me?

“It was nice assembly you,” Jason says as soon as it’s time for him to go away for sophistication. They shake palms and Jason’s virtually mooning. “Perhaps we are able to hang around once more someday?”

“Pleased to. If I’m fortunate, I’ll be round extra.”

Nana excuses herself too and leaves me alone with Saul. He’s buzzing to himself as he cleans up breakfast, washes the plates since we don’t have a dishwasher, and dries them with a towel. I watch him the entire time, consuming espresso, and making an attempt to not let myself fall for his tight denims, that pretty, biteable ass, and his thick, muscular arms. It’s exhausting, as a result of he’s scorching, however I maintain myself from drooling over him. Although simply barely.

“Your plan labored,” I say when he’s patting his palms with a dish towel. His smirk says he is aware of precisely what I imply. “Nana’s smitten. Jason’s able to name you his greatest buddy. And now I’ve nothing standing in the way in which of strolling down the aisle with you.”

“Excellent. Then let’s fly to Vegas proper now.”

I maintain up a hand. “Besides whereas my sibling is weak and Nana is a sucker, I’m nonetheless not shopping for it.”

“What’s there to purchase?” He sits on the desk subsequent to me and places a hand on my knee. “I’m what I’m.”

I ought to brush that hand away as a result of it’s a distraction and I prefer it approach an excessive amount of. However I don’t.

“That’s the factor. I don’t actually know what you’re. This breakfast was good and every thing, however I’ve no clue if that is simply you in your greatest habits or should you actually are this thoughtful.”

“Let’s say just a little little bit of each.” His fingers stroke up and down. Tingles run as much as the warmth between my legs. “However I meant it after I mentioned I’d care for you and your loved ones.”

I stand and transfer away. My head’s racing as I pause subsequent to Nana’s stool. Her fan’s nonetheless buzzing, blowing out the again window, and I swap it off to offer my palms one thing to do. I’m getting approach too excited by the mere prospect of this man rubbing my leg and I want to chop it the hell out.

However I can’t assist myself. After I look again, the stare he’s giving me is downright lascivious. His eyes transfer from my low-cut tank high down my denims and again up once more. There’s one thing daring and possessive about that stare, like now that Nana and Jason are gone, he can reveal the piece of him that’s been hiding.

It’s a beast, a hungry little animal, able to devour me. I like that mouth, these lips. I do know I like the tongue. Perhaps it wouldn’t be so unhealthy, rolling over and letting him feast.

“How would it not work?” I ask, crossing my arms to cowl my chest. He tilts his head, contemplating.

“You’d be my spouse.”

“I’m speaking logistics. The place would I dwell?”

“I’d purchase a home.”

“Identical to that, huh?”

He shrugs. “You could possibly dwell in mine should you’d like, however I figured you’d need one thing that was simply ours.”

Infuriating how casually he talks about spending a whole bunch of 1000’s of {dollars} after I can’t even afford a couple of hundred. “How sort of you.”

“I’d pay the lease on this place as effectively or we might discover a new condominium to your brother and your grandmother. That’s solely as much as you. However I’d want it should you didn’t actively dwell along with your grandmother. Smoking is unhealthy for the newborn and that features second-hand smoke.”

That will get my again up. I bristle on the remark, even when he’s proper. “Nana tries to not smoke round us and she or he’s cautious about blowing it out the window. It’s tremendous.”

He shrugs, however clearly doesn’t agree. “Both approach, they’d be taken care of, like I mentioned.”

I nod and rub my face. “The place would you reside?”

“We’d dwell collectively more often than not, although I’d have to return to my household’s home fairly usually.”

“What about my job?”
