3) that they never, ever give interviews.
My only chance is to seduce one of them. The only problem? Historically speaking, I'm way more likely ...

“ You wouldn’t dare.” He glared over his shoulder, giving me a smirk. By the looks of that smirk, it clearly showed that he might smack me again.

“Stop.” She breathed against his lips. “Fondling me wasn’t a part of the ‘one kiss’ offer.” She grinned, leaning forward to press a fleeting kiss on his parted lips. A bold move even for her but the look in his eyes made it worth the shift in her priority.
The words to respond were sparse. He’d never had someone melt into his arms so willingly. Nor had a woman ever asked him to stop once the act was under way. He untangled himself from her and watched as she smoothed her hair and skirts, “Am I...

I gasped, my chest heaving in anticipation. “Yes…yes…yes. It feels so good."
His hands moved up my thighs, stopping dangerously close to my pussy. “Did your ex-husband make you feel this good?" I sh...
