“Can you be undressed now, please?” she whispers.
“Since you said please,” I say, reaching for my pants, and between the two of us she has her wish and quickly.
I’m naked, hard as a fucking rock, and pressing inside her, lifting her as I did in the hallway of my apartment, but this time we won’t be standing. I walk us to the bed, and I go down on my back. I want her on top. I want her to ride me. I want her to show me how much she wants me. And she does. Lori sits on top of me, and starts to move, slow at first, and then faster, her spectacular breasts swaying with every thrust.
“Show me how you want me to touch you,” I order, knowing Lori is reserved, but wanting her to let me see that other part of her I know exists. The part that let me spank her. Wanting her to trust me that much again.
I expect her to be shy, to need urging, she’s doesn’t. Her hands glide over her body, her breasts, fingers trailing her nipples. I pump into her, and her head tilts back, pleasure sliding over her face, and it’s official—this woman rocks my world. I roll her to her side facing me, kissing her, molding her closer. Now that’s what I want. Her closer. Her next to me. Her everywhere and every way I can feel her.
My hand on her breast. My mouth on her nipples. My cock driving into her until she cries out so damn loudly it might just echo downstairs. I kiss her, swallowing the sound, and fight the tight knot in my groin that refuses to let go. I shudder into release, spilling myself inside her, and when we finally melt into each other and the bed, I don’t let go of her. I hold her tighter. I’m not letting her go. If I do, she’ll run. I still feel that.
“I need a towel,” she whispers, and I reluctantly ease back to kiss her temple.
“I’ll grab you one.”
I pull out of her and walk to the bathroom, grabbing a towel and tossing it toward the bed for the ease of speed. “Thank you,” she says, grabbing it and then scooting off the bed.
“Bathroom,” she says, still completely naked as she races past me.
She enters the bathroom and shuts the door. I really hate that shut door. I pull on my pants, and decide, screw giving her space to run. I snatch up my shirt before walking to the bathroom door. It opens right after I arrive. She stops abruptly and stares up at me. “What’s wrong?”
“Not a damn thing.” I slip my shirt around her, and pull her close. “You’re mine now.”
“And what does that make you?”
“Yours,” I say, without the hesitation I should feel. I feel none. “That means we’re taking on this thing called life together. That’s means you have to actually live it with me. You have to let me in.”
“I am. I will, but for the next nine months, I’m still your employee, and you have to understand our limits.”
“Work I get, but outside of work, I’m not going to be as understanding as you want me to be.”
“I kind of figured that out and I’m still here, but that doesn’t mean I’m going to just say yes to everything.”
“I’ll push.”
“I know that, Cole,” she says. “Very well.”
“Then you’re okay with it?”
“You just let me tell you not to spank me here, and didn’t even blink. I believe you’ll listen when I need you to listen.”
“I have fantasies about spanking you again,” I say.
Her teeth scrape her bottom lip. “Yeah?”
“Yeah, sweetheart, but the wait only makes it better.” I kiss her. “Let’s go back to the bed.”
“Do we need to go back downstairs?”
“There is not a chance in fiery hell that we’re voluntarily leaving a bedroom with you in my shirt to go check on Adam and Savage,” I say. “If they need us, they’ll shout.” I lead her back to the bed and pull her down with me. “We’re staying here tonight.” I pull her to me, catching her leg with mine. “We’re sleeping here.”
“What about being watched?”
“We’re in an all-night work session with Walker Security. We’re covered. Now. Tell me something I don’t know about you.”
“I don’t even know where to start.”
“Birth,” I say, because I want to know everything there is to know about this woman.
She starts telling me her story, and we laugh and talk for hours. It’s a long time later when she falls asleep on my chest, and I lay awake thinking about everything that happened tonight. This woman belongs with me. I’m in love with her. I’d say it happened fast, only it took my entire life.
Lori’s second night with me does not end the same as the first did, and I made sure of it. The minute she fell asleep, I wrapped myself around her and ensured she wasn’t getting away. I wake up to her soft, sweet curves pressed to mine, and I know this is how I want to wake up over and over and over again. I lay there for a good thirty minutes just holding her and do so despite the fact that I want to get back to New York where the company needs me, and where reality, and normalcy, will allow me to root Lori in more than a hotel adventure.
