Releasing another deep breath and making my lips flutter like a horse’s, I nodded, turned off the vehicle again, and climbed out, taking my purse with me.

He tracked me like a panther watches a rabbit, around the vehicles and up to the front door, his eyes roaming my body appreciatively—hungrily.I came to stand right in front of him on the threshold, the heat of him making me dizzy as he tucked one finger under my chin gently and brought his mouth down to mine in the softest, sweetest kiss.

My lawyer objected to her own argument as I wrapped my arms around his neck, and the judge—also me—threw the whole case out of court.The gentleness of our kiss only lasted about five seconds before we both sucked in deep breaths through our noses, and our animal instincts took over.

Spinning me around, he propelled us into the cabin, shutting the door with his foot.He plastered my back up against the wall as my hands greedily roamed all over his body.His very hard, very muscular, very strong body.I gave a little shudder when he moved in closer and the erection in his sweatpants prodded my hip.

He continued to devour my mouth, and I let him.It’d been a long time since I’d made out with anybody, and I forgot how much I enjoyed it.

“I was worried you were going to cancel,” he murmured, scraping his teeth down my jaw before pressing his lips to my neck.

“I thought about it.”

“Yeah?”

“Yeah.But … I’m glad I didn’t.”

“Me too.”He hoisted me up onto his hips and I locked my ankles behind him.

“Is this okay for your back?”I asked right before he took my mouth again and walked us through the cabin to the bedroom.

“Not going to be here for long.”And he was right.The cabin was small, and we were in the bedroom in no time, collapsing onto the bed.Ooh, it felt way too good to have his weight on me like this.Especially when that iron bar in his pants kept poking my thigh.He ground against me, and I spread my legs wider for him to settle between them.“I thought we were going totalk,” he said, kissing down my jaw to my neck again, then across my chest,

Squeezing my eyes shut, I tipped my chin to the ceiling and let myself just feel.“Yeah?Let’s talk.”

“We can talkanddo this, right?You can multitask?”Lifting the hem of my shirt up, he continued his journey with his mouth, down my torso.

“Mm-hmm.”

“Okay.”He swirled his tongue around my navel.“I really like you.I think you’re hot.Smart, sexy.A bit uptight—”

I yanked on his hair and raised my brows at him.

He grinned, his mouth hovering over my hipbone.“But I like thinking of ways to loosen you up.”

“Good save.”

“And while I don’t know what the future holds, I think we both deserve to give this a shot, don’t you?I think we both deserve to be happy and … feel good.”Climbing back up my body, he pushed my cardigan off my shoulders, then together, we removed my tank top so I was lying there in just my nude-colored bra and leggings.His gaze skimmed my body again, eyes glowing.“Fuck, you’re so hot.”

“Take off your shirt,” I whispered.

Grinning, he reached behind him just the way guys in the movies do, and yanked his tight, white T-shirt over his head, exposing every rock-hard inch of his godly physique.

I reached up and raked my hand down his torso and whispered, “Holy shit.”

His smile turned a tad boyish, and his cheeks developed some color.“I’m more than just a six-pack, you know?”There was humor in his tone as he hovered over me.

“I know.”I reached between us and ran my fingers along the ridges again.“You’re an eight-pack.”

He chuckled as he balanced himself on one elbow, and used the other hand to flip the cup of my bra down, exposing a nipple.His mouth latched on, and I gasped.I’d always had sensitive nipples, and it’d been a very long time since a man had his mouth on them.I forgot how much I liked it.

Flicking the tip with his tongue, I bowed my back and moaned, wedging my hands between us and scrambling for the waistband of his sweats.My baser instincts were taking over, and I ached to touch him.To feel the velvet encased steel in my palm.Pushing my fingers below the elastic and beneath his boxer briefs, I skimmed past the trimmed hair and wrapped my fingers around his hard length.

He let out a low groan and moved over to my other breast, moving the other bra cup down and locking his lips around that nipple.I sighed from the pleasure and slowly started to stroke him.

The angle wasn’t great.I couldn’t reach the base with my hand, but he thrust into my palm a little and seemed to be satisfied—for now—with what I could do.

We continued like this, playing, and kissing for a little while, exploring each other’s bodies.And while I was grateful for the foreplay, too much of it would cause me to get into my head and start overthinking things.The lawyer would come back, file an appeal, and begin her argument tonotdo this all over again.
