Chapter 30 : Losing Control

Tristan

I kept my eyes closed as I sat in the back seat and tried to reign myself in. For the thousandth time, I cursed at myself for kissing her. My self control had never been this weak before. I’d never had difficulty denying my urges.

Right now, I was barely holding myself together.

I could see Astrid’s face in profile if I opened my eyes. I could smell her airy lavender scent. I could taste her…

“I can’t believe you eat these,” Eddie complained.

Astrid laughed at him. “I told you they were hot.”

She popped another jalapeno puff in her mouth.

“It’s not that they’re hot,” he countered. “I like peppers. This doesn’t taste like peppers.”

“No,” she agreed. “It tastes like hot.”

“That doesn’t even make sense,” he shot back.

She shrugged. “So, eat your sandwich,” she said. “It’ll get the taste out of your mouth.”
