responded with a chuckle of her own.
Tony heard the exchange and felt Steve was being a bit forward for just being an acquaintance. Upon his return to the table, Korrine was sitting at a comfortable distance away from Steve. Steve didn’t seem to like this fact, so Tony sat close to Korrine, leaning in to kiss her neck. He knew his little display worked because he knew his sweetness. Make no mistake she was his , even if she didn’t want to admit it yet.
Korrine was just about to say something to Steve when Tony gave her a panty dropping, heat-filled look and Korrine lost whatever she was about to say…again a fact that Steve didn’t seem to appreciate.
Korrine stuttered, “Uh… Um… Steve, Tony and I were waiting on the check so we could leave.”
Steve frowned. “Not a problem. I will definitely be keeping in touch since I am permanently back in town.”
Steve then leaned down to hug Korrine before extending his hand to Tony. “It was nice meeting you, man,” he uttered with a smile that didn’t reach his eyes.
Tony simply nodded, not giving a reply.
Korrine cleared her throat and narrowed her eyes at Tony before the two men finally let go of the firm handshake, with Steve departing with another hug for Korrine.
Nope, don’t like this asshole at all, Tony thought before placing a possessive hand around Korrine’s waist and pulling her to him. She raised an eyebrow at Tony’s possessive move, and he just smiled down at her while stealing a kiss from her plump lips. The look of wanting returned to her face, and he knew he had successfully distracted her.
That night after they left the restaurant and returned to his place, Tony wanted to have a conversation about this Steve guy.
“So, how do you know this Steve?” Tony asked with a quirked eyebrow.
Korrine replied, “I met him at the coffee shop around the corner from my apartment. He owned a real estate company, but he moved to Houston a couple years before and we lost touch. Why do you ask?”
Tony shrugged his shoulders. “He just seemed awfully familiar. Did you two date?”
It was Korrine’s turn to quirk an eyebrow. “No, we were casual friends, hanging out here and there, but that was all. We never dated.”
Tony didn’t look convinced.
“Look, Tony, I was just excited to see him because it had been such a long time,” Korrine convinced him. “He’s a nice guy, just an old friend.”
Tony nodded. He could understand what she was saying, but the only problem was that Tony didn’t think that Steve thought of Korrine as an acquaintance. Tony knew that Steve wanted in her panties, and Tony wasn’t the sharing type. Korrine and her panties were his, and this douchebag needed to be made aware of that ASAP.
Chapter 7
Korrine
After the night they ran into Steve, Tony was acting a little unusual. He seemed upset that she hadn’t put a label on what they were. Korrine had just said they were friends because she didn’t want to hurt his feelings or, better yet, his ego by calling it a fling. The sex was incredible, and she couldn’t get enough of Tony. Any time they were in the same room, she just wanted to rip his clothes off and then her own. Her sense of awareness of him was unbelievable; whenever he was near, she could feel his presence. It was something that she never felt before, not even with Darren, and that’s what scared her the most. She couldn’t get distracted with another man. She couldn’t lose herself, not again.
The time they spent together was so much fun. She had never been so relaxed. And to be totally honest, she was more creative. Her juices were definitely flowing, in more ways than one. This is what she needed—no strings attached fun, incredible sex, and to relax—so that she could create more killer designs. So why was Tony all of a sudden trying to make it more?
She couldn’t spend time worrying about what Tony was thinking. Besides, he was
