“This might not be accomplished in one leave, or this month. Or even this year. I have to go back on duty, and you’re going to be, well, wherever you’re going to be.”
“Here,” she decided then and there. “I’m here until my dad is well again.”
“All the more reason to make sure you’re following rule three then.”
“Fully committed?”
“That means you’re pretending you’re engaged.” He paused, giving her an arch look. She was pretty sure she knew where he was going, but decided it would be more fun to make him spell it out. So she offered a blank look of confusion, adding a flutter of her lashes for good measure.
“I know this is going to be hard for you, but unless you can handle it, we might as well find an alternative now.”
Not so amused any longer, she ceased fluttering.
“Handle...what?” Hard and handling were giving her a lot of ideas.
“You have to be able to commit to keeping to the spirit of this engagement for the duration. That means no sex. You can’t keep bouncing from guy to guy.”
Bouncing? Sage was tempted to inform him that she was going on eight months with no sex and managing fine. But that wasn’t the kind of thing a girl wanted to admit to a guy who was currently making her wonder how many licks of his tongue it would take to get her off.
At least, not until they’d spent a little more time together, and she’d figured out what it was about Aiden that was suddenly making her hot and crazy.
“I promise, any sex I have will be within the accepted confines of our engagement,” she swore, one hand in the air.
“That’d be rule four,” he said quickly. “No sex.”
“I just said I wasn’t going to cheat on you. Even if the cheating was really fake.”
“I mean no sex between us.”
