heard a car pull up outside. Finally. The front bell rang and Per rushed to the door and threw it open.
“You’re late.” Then he froze. His
mouth fell open. “ Fan, vad du är snygg . ”
Her brows crinkled in confusion at
his muttered words of Swedish, but he barely noticed. He stepped out the door
and drew her close. She lifted her hands to his shoulders and he could tell she
expected him to jump her. But that was the last thing on his mind. Well, not
the last thing, but she was so beautiful she stole the breath from his
chest. Per gently tipped her chin up and dropped a light, worshipful kiss on
her full red lips.
“Will I do?” she asked when he drew
back.
Per smiled. “You’re stunning.” Her
brows rose in disbelief. “I’m not lying.”
“Not even exaggerating?”
“No. Not even a little.” His gaze
skimmed her body and he groaned. “You are going to make every man trip over his
tongue tonight.”
“Why?”
“’Cause it’ll be dragging on the
floor while he drools.”
Yohana chuckled. “You’re too kind.”
“No, I’m not.” He leaned close and
drew a deep breath. “You even smell good. Is it perfume?”
“Yes, do you like it?”
“I like it.” He pulled the door
closed behind him and locked it. “We need to get going because we’re running
late. What kept you?”
“Don’t go shopping with Serena. Ever. It was like following in the wake of a
general. We bought clothes then she took me for a spa day and had me styled and
made up. It was horrid.”
“Well, I appreciate your sacrifice, älskling , the results are superb.” Per
laughed, slipping his arm around her waist and leading her to the garage. He
keyed in his code and the doors opened.
“Quite the gentleman,” Yo teased as he opened the car door and helped her into the
low-slung vehicle.
“The more I get to touch you, the
happier I am.”
He glanced down as she adjusted
herself in the seat and groaned. Her white thighs peeked out of the slit of her
dress. She glanced up, raising her brows.
“What’s wrong?”
“Those
thighs.”
“What’s wrong with my thighs?” She
frowned, pulling her skirt over the fair skin.
“Not a damn thing. That’s what’s
wrong with them. Are you in?” When she nodded, he shut the door and came around
the car and climbed in.
“I don’t get it,” she muttered.
“ Älskling , the last thing I want to do right at this moment is attend some damn hospital
fundraiser. I want to toss you over my shoulder, carry you up to my room and
make love to you all night long. I love your legs.”
“Oh.” She smiled, a bit smugly, as
he started the car.
He chuckled. “ Ja … oh.”
Per paid
close attention to the road for the duration of the trip. It would be only too easy to be distracted by Yohana’s scent, her fabulous legs and the lift of her
breasts in the black dress she was wearing. He really didn’t want to drive off
the road tonight.
He pulled up to the entrance of the
large hotel where the reception was being held and climbed out of the car. The
valet was already reaching for the passenger door and there was no way in hell
he wanted some guy getting an eyeful of his Mate’s perfection. He rounded his
car and handed the guy his keys while he bent to offer Yo his hand. She swung her legs out of the car and he heard the valet take a deep
breath. Per glanced at the young man and fought the instinctive growl rumbling
in his throat. The guy’s eyes were glued to her legs. Per stepped in front of
her to block the other man’s view while Yohana stood.
“Whoa,” the young man whispered
softly. Per shot a glare at him, but he didn’t notice. The valet’s eyes were
now wide and focused on Yohana’s glorious breasts.
Per clenched his teeth.
She stood and straightened her
dress. While she paused, Per pulled her close to his
side. No way was this young human male going to continue to ogle his Mate.
“Something wrong?” she asked.
“Not at all,” he growled. His
