Fast and fierce, need rushed through her again, and she automatically rocked her hips, matching his rhythm. A delicious heat consumed her every pore. She’d never felt this way. So filled, so whole.

“God, Emily…you feel so good.” He deepened the kiss, his big hands cupping her head as he slipped his tongue inside her mouth with the same pace and delicious intensity as his thrusts.

And just like that, she was there again. Ready. Throbbing. Teetering on the brink. She gripped his hips and bucked wildly, calling out his name as another fierce orgasm shook through her.Holden drew back, elbows locked, neck rigid as he thrust one last deep thrust and followed her over that blissful edge.

A few minutes passed, or maybe an hour. Emily wasn’t certain how long she laid there, eyes closed, dragging in air, holding the spent man to her equally spent body. Any second now, he’d probably get up, get dressed, and leave. At the moment, though, she didn’t care, she was too content to move…happily enjoying a post-euphoric ecstasy.

That was what Holden had introduced her to…ecstasy.

She regained enough energy to open one eye and then the other. She smiled. Warm breath hit her skin in spurts as Holden nuzzled her throat. He didn’t seem in any hurry to go, and it was probably crazy how great that made her feel.

The man had just taken her out of herself on an incredible pleasure trip and she was still fighting the wonderful jet lag.

“You okay?” he asked, rolling off her and onto his side.

She blinked, already missing the feel of him. “A lot better than okay. More like satiated. And I can’t feel my legs.”

Pride and satisfaction gleamed in his hazel eyes, causing warmth to flood her chest. “Satiated is good.” He grinned, tracing her collarbone with his finger.

“Oh, it’s better than good. Trust me.” She reached out to scrape the stubble on his jaw.

His gaze grew serious. “I do trust you, Emily. Just as I trusted this connection between us to prove amazing in bed.”

Fighting a grin, she cocked her head and trailed a hand down his hot, damp chest. “Does that mean it only works in a bed?”

Heat entered his gaze, and his erection thickened against her leg. “Well, now, I don’t know,” he said, matching her teasing manner. Then he grew bold and brushed her nipple back and forth with his thumb. “We might have to conduct a few more of oursessions.”

Good thing he brought that strip of condoms.

The next morning Holden woke up with a warm, soft, naked woman draped over him, sleeping. His mind quickly recalled their third session that had left them both too spent to move. A smile tugged his lips.

That one might’ve been his favorite.

Emily had pushed him onto his back and explored his body with her hands, lips, and tongue, very thoroughly, very intensely, before she’d ridden him with a wild, fierce, abandonment, taking her pleasure on him—twice—then he’d held her in place and brought her to climax again before his release had ripped through him with a furious force.

Not only had the beauty decimated his strength, but she’d also stolen his breath. Her responses, and her demands were raw and primal and the two of them had come together in a way he’d never experienced before. It was honest and real, and it strengthened their already strong connection.

For being knocked off his axis, he’d never felt so balanced.

And shehadknocked him off his axis. The rapturous look on her face—eyes closed, lips parted—sexy as hell bounce of her breasts as she rode him hard, secured her place in his heart.

The woman got him intellectually and sexually, satisfying his needs without trying. Her actions came naturally, as had his for her. Her calm, confident demeanor did it for him.

He lightly brushed a finger across her shoulder, and he smiled at the goosebumps appearing on her skin. Even in slumber, her body reacted to his, proving his conclusion about their connection.

It was crazy-ass strong.

That didn’t surprise him, but their fierce reactions to one another on a high-octane level had blown him away. The degree of satisfaction was unreal.

Holden had never been this satisfied or spent in his life.

It was beyond amazing.

Emily Harrison was exhilarating. Now that he’d had the intoxicating beauty and experienced the result of their connection, there was no way he’d ever get enough.

He glanced at the clock on her nightstand, relieved to note he had more than an hour before he was due at ESI. That could be a good thing, since the heat simmering in his body stoked to life as Emily moved on top of him.
