chance I’ll try and turn your fantasies into reality right here and now.”
One glance at his face told her that he was serious. His hazel eyes burned bright with desire, and to prove his point Dave rocked his hips, letting her feel the hard ridge of his cock where it lay trapped beneath his jeans. Her pussy was instantly soaked, her clit aching with the need to be touched. She wanted him, and for one brief second she considered letting it happen, but she dismissed the idea as quickly as it came. Dave had only admitted he was interested in her a few minutes ago. They shouldn’t rush things.
Her libido didn’t agree with her logic. A fresh flood of cream dampened her panties as a surge of lust hit her, hard, but she didn’t give in. Sexual chemistry and pretty words had drawn her in once before. She wouldn’t make the same mistake again. Not that David was anything like her ex. They were like night and day, but that didn’t mean she had to throw herself off the cliffs of insanity right away.
“For a man everyone describes as a cranky bastard, you certainly have a way with words when you want to,” she said.
“I can be charming, but why would I waste that effort on my brothers? They’re family so they have to put up with me as is.” He brushed a gentle kiss to her upturned face and finally let go of her.
“So I’m a special case?” she asked as she moved to reclaim her seat, meaning it as a lighthearted jest.
“Very special,” he said as they both sat down, his expression completely serious. “You and Casey both are.”
It warmed her heart to hear him talk about her daughter that way. She’d never been sure how to even start dating as a single parent. She wouldn’t only be picking someone to share her life with, but to be part of Casey’s life, too. If she chose badly again, both of them could get hurt in the fallout. It was one of the reasons she’d never tried to meet anyone else. She didn’t trust her own judgment.
After Bobby, how could she?
He’d been charming, attentive, and sweet in the beginning. Phone calls, and texts, and surprise visits with gifts. He’d made her feel like a princess, and she’d fallen for his act completely. She’d believed in him so much that when he started to change, she let him convince her that she was the one to blame, not him. The bastard had twisted her in so many knots it had taken years to get her head straight again.
God, the things he’d done to her, and somehow she’d always ended up being the one to apologize.
Dani forced herself to forget the past and focus on the present and the wonderful man seated across from her. “I’m glad you like Casey. She’s always talking about you.” Dani turned in her chair to point out the sketch he’d drawn the first night they’d all met. “She loves your drawing, insisted I give it the place of honor on the fridge. I like it, too, especially the way you drew Casey into the picture.”
He actually blushed a little at her compliment. “She told me she wanted to be a police officer someday, so I thought I’d draw her as one. They’re just doodles. My mom and Nick are true artists. If you haven’t been to Nick’s shop, you should drop by one day. His studio upstairs is fucking impressive. I had no idea how good he was until a few months ago.”
She frowned at that. “How could you have no idea? You see your brothers all the time. I’ve never seen a family as close as yours.”
A guilty look passed over his face and he took a sip of his wine before answering her. “You’re seeing us in a good phase. There are times we barely speak to each other. Tag pretty much dropped off the planet after he got shot and found out he’d never be able to return to the force. As for Nicky…we weren’t even born in the same decade. You might have noticed that most of us went into one of the family businesses. Three of us joined the force and Jared went to school to learn how to run Leo’s. Nick went his own way.
