of the opportunity to spar without consequence. Kai would get into
a temper and all the others were too willing, too keen to try to please me,
which bored me. I figured the harder I made it, the more he’d want me, but not
much chance of anything happening. Not with me and my bloody morals standing in
the way.
    ‘God you’re infuriating,’ he said
as he caught me up and walked by my side. ‘Are you seeing either of them?’
    ‘No, I’m not seeing either of them. ’
    ‘So someone else then?’
    ‘No, not at the moment, but I’m
quite enjoying all the attention I’ve been getting since I moved here. I might
want to keep my options open.’
    ‘Options open?’ he gasped,
momentarily thrown.
    ‘What’s wrong Gabe? Used to having
your pick of women? Do they usually throw themselves at you?’ I teased.
    ‘Yes, they do,’ he said in all
seriousness. He looked surprised that I’d even questioned the fact that he was
hot property, seriously hot property I thought.
    ‘O, so now I can add cocky and
arrogant to your list of characteristics. They’re such attractive qualities
Gabe. Sign me up, add me to your groupies list, I desperately want you now.’ I
heard a frustrated sigh and I looked at him running his hand through his hair
again, this seemed to be his frustrated tell. ‘Are you ok Gabe? You’ve gone
very red.’
    ‘I’m just not used to having to
work so hard for a result.’
    ‘Hmmm, that doesn’t bode so well
either. Mental note, no staying power.’ I slowed down as we approached the
lecture hall door, I wasn’t quite ready to walk away quite yet, I was enjoying
myself.
    ‘I can assure you that I’ve no
problems in that department,’ he snapped. His eyes had gone a stormy blue as he
glared at me, he was annoyed. Annoyed and so damn hot.
    ‘That you know of.’
    ‘That I know of?’ he uttered,
looking completely shocked again.
    ‘Woman are very good at faking at
it. Have you never seen When Harry met Sally?’
    ‘I think I’d know the difference
between faking it and the real thing Mia. Trust me, no one has ever had the
need to fake it with me thank you. Now answer the question.’
    ‘Which one?’
    ‘If I were single are you
available?’
    ‘But you’re not single, so why does
it matter?’
    He sighed again and did that thing
with his hair ‘Jesus christ Mia, you’re seriously hard work. Ok, hypothetically ,
if I were single are you available?’
    ‘In what capacity?’
    ‘What do you mean in what
capacity?’
    ‘I’m not looking to be someone’s
possession Gabe.’
    ‘Then what the hell are you
looking for Mia?’
    ‘No strings attached mind blowing
sex.’ I surprised myself at how easily it came out, Lexi would’ve been proud of
me. She’d told me to be direct, to make it clear and I just had. He stared at
me, his mouth wide open for once.
    ‘No strings attached mind … blowing
…’
    ‘Sex,’ I finished his sentence for
him as I felt my cheeks burning. He just stood looking at me with a stunned
expression on his face. Stunned and very turned on. I flicked my eyes down
again and saw he was still hard, if anything it looked even bigger, if that was
even possible. I smiled to myself, it seemed I affected him, the way he did me
and I liked that.
    ‘You expect me to end a
relationship for no strings attached?’
    ‘I don’t expect you to do anything
Gabe. You’re the one pursuing me and pushing me for answers. You asked me what
I wanted and I’m telling you, as I might be interested if you were single, it’s
not my problem that you’re not. I’m sure I can soon find someone else who is.’
    ‘If you go around telling men that
all you’re interested in is no strings attached sex, how many do you think will
lie about their availability just to take advantage of you?’ he asked frowning.
    ‘I’m not going around broadcasting
the fact thank you. I’m very choosy, so no one will be taking unwitting
advantage of me. You asked me what I wanted and I’m telling you.
