––––––––

My eyes opened andfor a second I didn't remember where I was. Panic and worry clouded my head,making my heart slam against my ribs, and forcing me to stay really still.

Where the hell am I?Clutching the sheets, I closed my eyes and tried to force my brain to work. Something hard pressed into my lower back. My eyes popped open wide and all of it came flooding back.

The ad.

The man. . . theman—August.

Oh my God, is that what I think it is?

I was afraid to move, afraid to make a sound that might signal I was up, and that I was aware his morning wood was pinned against my back. Unless he already knew what he was doing, and this was part of his little plan to get to know each other sooner.

Twisting carefully, I tried to see if August was awake. His face was slightly buried in his pillow, his arms were folded across his chest, mouth partially open as he breathed with a soft piggy kind if snort I was just able to hear between the rise and fall of his chest.

He's still out.

Pushing up onto my elbow, I made an attempt to slip off the bed. The weight of his arm fell around my shoulders and he groaned as he shifted his body closer to mine and pulled me in more at the same time. His cock speared my back, hard as a rock, and I laid in stunned silence.

What the hell do I do?

Pinching the tip of his index finger, I lifted his hand off my shoulder, and laid his arm on the bed behind me. Scooting a little, August's arm dropped back into place, curling around my neck as he coughed and held on tight.

Moving his arm again, I tried to slink my hips off the bed before he could latch onto me for a third time, but I failed. I didn't even make it an inch before his arm was tossed over my chest and he let out a sleepy laugh.

“Are you awake?” I asked.

“That depends, what do you consider awake?”

“I'd say you're awake now, but in case you didn't notice, someone else got up much earlier.”

“Wha—” he started to ask, but stopped. Jerking his hips back, I could feel him adjusting himself as he put some space between us. “Not how I expected you two to meet, but I guess he got excited and couldn't wait any longer. I don't blame him though, you're gorgeous.”
