Her entire manner around him looked much less tense, and he even found her yawn sexy. Maybe it was time for a little more relaxing before the big event tonight. Perhaps she could ease the growing ache around his cock. Watching her try on dresses had to be one of the most erotic times he’d ever had while shopping. He enjoyed the simple pleasures in life, hence his passion for cigars and fine alcohol, or listening to music regardless of genre. But shopping normally drove him mad. Except when he got a wild hair and slipped into the dressing room with her after she’d picked out a second number and tried it on. He had to give his opinion, naturally fueled by the sight of her semi-naked. He had to remind himself every time she grimaced that this was for her safety. He’d been asked to protect her, then the mission became a bigger deal. And that wasn’t the half of it; they still hadn’t settled the whole in-love issue yet. Her choice of dress indicated she was a far more complex woman than she ever let on, and he really dug that.
