Entwined with You(56)

The burner phone started ringing and I fumbled for it quickly. “Hello?”


“Just do it,” Gideon purred. “Stop worrying and drive it.”


I spun around, my gaze searching for security cameras. Awareness shivered down my spine. I could feel Gideon’s gaze on me. “What are you doing?”


“Wishing I were with you. I’d love to spread you across the hood and f*ck you real slow. Push my cock deep inside you. Give those shocks a workout. Umm. God, I’m hard.”


And he was making me wet. I could listen to him endlessly; I loved his voice so much. “I’m scared I’m going to screw up your pretty car.”


“I don’t give a shit about the car, only about your safety. So scratch it up all you want, just don’t get hurt.”


“If that was supposed to calm me down, it didn’t work.”


“We could have phone sex until you come, that should do it.”


I narrowed my gaze at the parking attendants, who were pretending not to watch me. “Should I be worried about what got you so horny in the short time since I was with you?”


“Thinking about you driving the DB9 turns me on.”


“Does it now?” I fought to hold back a smile. “Remind me, which one of us has the transportation fetish?”


“Slide behind the wheel,” he coaxed. “Imagine I’m in the passenger seat. My hand between your legs. My fingers f*cking your soft, slick cunt.”


Stepping closer to the car on shaky legs, I muttered, “You must have a death wish.”


“I’d take my cock out and stroke it with my fist while I fingered you, get us both good and hot.”


“Your lack of respect for this vehicle’s upholstery is appalling.” I settled into the driver’s seat and spent a minute figuring out how to move it forward.


His voice rasped through the car’s sound system. “How does it feel?”


It totally figured that he’d synced my burner phone to the car’s Bluetooth. Gideon always thought of everything.


“Expensive,” I answered. “You’re crazy for letting me drive this.”


“I’m crazy about you,” he replied, sending delight skipping through me. “LaGuardia is programmed in the GPS.”


It made me feel good to know that coming home to see me had lightened his mood so much. I knew just how he felt. It meant a lot to know he felt the same way.


I pulled up the GPS, then hit the button to put the transmission into drive. “You know what, ace? I want to blow you while you’re driving this thing. Throw a pillow across this center console here and suck your cock for miles.”


“I’m going to take you up on that. Tell me how she feels.”


“Smooth. Powerful.” I waved at the attendants as I eased out of the subterranean parking garage. “Very responsive.”


“Just like you,” he murmured. “Of course, you’re my favorite ride.”


“Aw, that’s sweet, baby. And you’re my favorite joystick.” I merged carefully into traffic.


He laughed. “I better be your only joystick.”


“But I’m not your only ride,” I pointed out, loving him so much in that moment because I knew he was looking out for me, making sure I was comfortable. Back in California, driving had been like breathing to me, but I hadn’t been behind the wheel of a car since I moved to New York.


“You’re the only one I enjoy naked,” he said.


“That’s real lucky for you, because I’m very possessive.”


“I know.” His voice was filled with masculine satisfaction.


“Where are you?”


“At work.”


“Multitasking, I’m sure.” I stepped on the gas and prayed as I cut across lanes. “What’s a little calming distraction for your girlfriend in the midst of world entertainment domination?”


“I’d stop the world from spinning for you.”


That silly line oddly touched me. “I love you.”


“Liked that one, did you?”


I grinned, startled and pleased by his ridiculous sense of humor.


I was hyperaware of my surroundings. There were signs in every direction prohibiting everything. Driving in Manhattan was a fast trip to nowhere. “Hey, I can’t turn left or right. I think I’m heading for the Midtown Tunnel. I could lose you.”


“You’ll never lose me, angel,” he vowed. “Wherever you go, however far, I’ll be right here with you.”


WHEN I spotted my dad outside the baggage claim area, I lost all the confidence Gideon had instilled in me since I’d left work. Dad looked drawn and haggard, his eyes reddened and his jaw shadowed by stubble.


I felt the sting of tears as I walked toward him, but I blinked them back, determined to reassure him. Holding my arms open, I watched him drop his carry-on and then all the air left my lungs as he hugged me tightly.


“Hi, Daddy,” I said, with a tremor in my voice I hoped he missed.
