Kate Hoffmann - The Mighty Quinns - Mac

“I don’t expect it to be special,” Emma said.

“I want to make it special for you,” Mac said. He glanced over at her and smiled. “Listen, why don’t we just delay negotiations on this tonight and pick it up at a later date.”

“I understand,” Emma said. “If you don’t want to, you can just say so. I won’t be hurt.”

“Oh, I want to,” he replied. “Believe me, I’ve been thinking about it since the moment you walked into the shop. But I’m not sure you understand what you’re asking. So I’d like to take a little time.”

“All right. But if you change your mind, just call.”

“I will,” Mac assured her. “There is one thing we could do right now.”

“What’s that?” Emma asked. It all happened so quickly, she didn’t have a chance to prepare. He slipped his arm around her waist and pulled her close, his gaze meeting hers. And in a heartbeat, his mouth came down on hers in a long, delicious kiss.

Emma had already grown to love the way he kissed. His attention fixed on her lips for just a moment before his mouth descended on hers. And after that, a wild whirl of sensations assailed her body. His kiss was a demand, not a request, and she had no choice but to respond.

When he finally drew away, his eyes were closed and her breath came in short gasps. A thrill raced through her. It was obvious the kiss had affected him in the same way it had her. Maybe she should count this as a victory.

“I’ll talk to you soon?” she asked.

“You will,” he said.

She walked him to the front door and opened it. “Thanks for the kiss. It was really nice.”

“Emma?”

“Yes?”

“You don’t ever have to thank me for kissing you.”
