Free My Soldier: A Miliatary Romance by Leah Holt

sane.
    Then I met her; Avni. And for the first time in ages I felt human. My nerves electrified when I saw her, the blood hit my veins full force. I wanted more of her, and I didn't care how long it might take; I was going to make her feel the same.
    “I'm glad you're enjoying it, but don't get used to this.” Slouching against the seat, I rolled my head to my shoulder. “I don't usually pay.”
    Her giggle sent my cock straight into the zipper. Jerking my body forward, I rested my arms on the table. Fuck! How does she get me so excited with just a fucking laugh?
    “Shit, well then it looks like we won't be having dinner together again.” Shaking her empty bottle, she said, “So I better take advantage of this. How about another?”
    “Damn, you're going to break my bank, Princess.” Pulling my wallet from my back pocket, I opened it and looked intensely at the inside. “How about we split one?”
    Chuckling, she let the bottle clank onto the table. “Are you fucking with me? Or should I be preparing for an old fashioned dine and dash?”
    “Hope you can run.” I let my eyes wildly scan the open room, freezing on the exit.
    “You're an asshole.” Leaning over the table, Avni shoved my arm.
    “You are what you eat, Sweetheart.” Smiling, I nodded my head in her direction, eyes falling towards her waste.
    “Eew! Gross, you pervert.” Darting her eyes away, her palms rested flat on the table. “I can be eaten out, but that...” Shaking her head, her chin fell to her chest. “That's not my cup of tea.”
    “Then you haven't had it done right, it's all about the timing. All about the timing.” Bobbing my head up and down, Avni couldn't help her cheeks from lifting up high.
    And if she would let me, I'd give her the ride of her life.
    I was happy to see her loosen up, and let her guard down.
    Avni needed a man like me around, and soon she was going to realize it.
    She had just fallen into my world, and I wasn't about to let her walk out.

Chapter Five
    Avni
    W ho was this guy?
    A Soldier, the first soldier to actually give me butterflies. And he knew it. The way he had been looking at me, riding his eyes over my body; the swarm fluttering around my stomach was in overdrive.
    What am I doing? Why, why, why would I torment myself like this?
    I had tried so hard to keep him from getting in my head, and even harder trying to keep my body from giving in.
    Why him? Why was he the one who had to come to my rescue?
    And he called me 'V.' A nickname I thought had disappeared with my brother. That single letter sent so many emotions crashing into my soul. It felt like the letter was attached to me like an artery, feeding my heart its fuel.
    The instant he said it, I had chills. Medusa's snakes had caught my eyes, turning me to stone. All that was left was the heat from one letter, pinging in my ears as loud as if he said it with a megaphone.
    The one letter, the one voice, the one man who just hooked my heart and sang it a soft lullaby for only me to hear. Levi.
    His smile was intoxicating, and his body was pantie melting. Sitting across from him, three beers later... My defenses had folded. I couldn't stop my words from spilling out, every inch of my life was spewing from my mouth with ease.
    Except for the one thing, the only thing I didn't ever want to speak of. That was for me, for my memories.
    But he would ask and I would answer. I would ask and he did the same, it was refreshing. And through all of it he made me forget that he was a solider. He really was just Levi. There was no war talk, no slang innuendos of Army lingo.
    He seemed to be interested in more than just fucking me like every other guy I'd come in contact with since graduating.
    Those guys didn't know my brother, so as much as it was flattering to not have the look alike comparison; their sex driven pick ups turned me off.
    But not Levi, his drove me insane. His hands made me quiver without a touch.
    No, don't do this to yourself. A thank you dinner,
