Chapter 9

For a brief moment, Gabriella seriously second-guessed her decision to get in the car and drive over to Zach’s. But the look on his face when he opened the door pretty much confirmed she’d made the right choice. No sooner had she announced her presence than he had her in his arms, his lips on hers, kissing her senseless.

It was madness. It was almost frightening how much she wanted him, and if the way he just slammed the front door and backed her up against it was any indication, Zach felt the same exact way. How was it possible they’d both had this much—desire? passion?—for each other locked up for so long and neither had been aware of it? She knew how he liked his coffee, what he liked to eat, and even at what temperature he preferred his office to be set. She even knew ridiculous facts, like how many times he tapped his pen when he was thinking or how many times he’d pace back and forth in his office when he was dictating something to her, and yet she’d had no idea he had these feelings for her?

“You’re thinking,” he murmured against her lips. “No thinking.” His lips traveled along her jaw—lightly nipping and kissing.

Wrapping her arms around his shoulders, she pressed herself fully against him and sought his lips with her own.

She was done overthinking. She wanted to feel. And oh, did the man know how to make her feel. Zach’s hands roamed slowly up and down her back before settling on her waist and gently squeezing. Dressed the way she was, without her heels, he towered over her, and Gabriella found she enjoyed their difference in size. Normally they seemed to be on more even ground, but locked together like this, Zach made her feel petite and feminine.

It was a really good feeling.

Slowly Zach lifted his head and looked down at her, his eyes a little dazed. “I thought you didn’t like driving at night?” His words were whisper-soft as he scanned her face.

“I guess I never really had someplace I wanted to be,” she replied honestly. Gabriella always made sure she did the right thing—chose the right options. Going out late at night seemed like something she should avoid.

Until now.

Zach Montgomery—well, this new Zach Montgomery—was quickly turning her carefully organized world upside down. Gabriella couldn’t remember the last time a man—or anyone, for that matter—made her want to be reckless. But as his hands began to roam again and his lips seemed intent on driving her crazy, it was exactly what she wanted to be. She whispered his name and then made a slightly needy sound when he lifted his head again.

“I’ll probably hate myself for asking this,” he said a little breathlessly, “but what changed your mind?”

Her lips twitched. “Aw, does someone need their ego stroked?” As soon as the words were out of her mouth, she wanted to die. Gabriella considered herself one of the least sexy or flirtatious people who ever lived.
