Kas is sitting in his chair behind his desk.
“Your coffee, sir.” I grin as I walk over to his desk and place the steaming cup down in front of him. “Is that all? Or do you need anything else from me?” My tone comes out sounding seductive even though I didn’t mean it to. Or maybe I did.
“There is something else I need.” He pushes to his feet and rounds the desk, heading for me.
Heat unfurls in my belly at his approach.
Curling his hand around the nape of my neck, he hauls me in for a kiss. His tongue runs along mine, and he hums a delicious sound in his mouth that sends shivers right down to my toes.
He tastes of mint and something so seductively him.
Kas’s kisses always send my body haywire, but being in here, with him, knowing that Toby is just down the hall in the kitchen, makes it feel naughty and dangerous, and it heats me up even more.
God, I want him right now.
Guess this girl likes her men with a side of danger.
My hands move over his broad chest, feeling the firm ridges. Going around to his back, I clutch on to him.
His free arm bands around my back, pulling me closer to him. He turns, so he’s leaning up against his desk, and I’m pressed up against all of his delicious hotness.
His kisses move from my mouth to my jaw until his mouth is on my ear. “The second Toby’s gone, I want you to go straight upstairs, take off all your clothes, and wait for me on my bed.”
Holy…shiver.
“Is that an order?” My voice is hoarse with excitement. But, seriously, who wouldn’t be excited after hearing that?
He kisses my jaw, and his teeth graze over my skin, making me shudder. “Do you want it to be?”
Hell yes. I tip my head back and stare into his lust-fogged eyes. “Only if it results in me coming.”
“Multiple times,” he promises.
“Then, yes, please.”
He growls. He actually growls, and then he’s kissing me again, devouring my mouth, and it’s hot as fuck.
But I’m also aware that time is ticking by, and Toby is in the other room.
I break from the kiss. “I have to go.”
I try to step away, but Kas keeps me there.
“Sooner I’m done with Toby, the sooner I’ll be upstairs, waiting on your bed—naked,” I whisper that last word.
His hand slips from around my neck and cups my chin. He firmly presses his lips to mine, gently sucking on my lower lip. “You drive me crazy,” he murmurs.
I take that as a good thing because he wraps his arms around me, holding me tight.
I love it when he hugs me.
I inch up onto my toes and rest my chin on his shoulder, and something very hard pokes me in the stomach. I giggle.
“What?” His questioning voice is a rumble.
I push my belly against his erection, and he chuckles deep and low.
“If it helps, my knickers are completely soaked.”
He groans. “No, that doesn’t fucking help at all.”
I laugh. “Sorry.” I press a kiss to the skin at the base of his neck.
As I lift my head, I notice something. “Hey, where’s the door gone?”
I feel Kas’s body instantly lock up beneath me, his whole demeanor changing. Gone is the warmth, and I feel a chill emit from him that I can’t explain.
But that chill has me moving away from him.
When I look at his face, it’s blank.
“What door?” His voice is as empty as his expression.
“The door that was there.” I point over his shoulder to the place where the door used to be, but now, it is a full wall-to-ceiling bookcase.
Curling his hands around the edge of his desk, he says, “There was never a door there.”
“Um…” I let out an unsure laugh. “Are you kidding right now?”
“Babe, no, I’m not kidding. Honestly, I’m not sure what you’re talking about.”
I rub my head. “The door.” I point at the spot again. “It was right there, where that bookcase is. We had an argument about that door. Well, kind of. I came in here to leave you coffee and muffins, and you were coming in through that door.” I point at it again. “You tore me a new one about coming in your office. I asked if I should clean that room. You bit my head off again, telling me no. It was also the first day we kissed.”
The look on his face is like he thinks I’ve lost my mind.
Have I?
No, there was definitely a door there.
“I don’t know what to tell you, babe, but there’s never been a door there. It’s always been a bookcase.”
“I…” I rub my head, confused.
He reaches out, pulling me back to him, and he softly brushes his lips over mine. “Maybe you’re confusing it with something else. The library maybe.”
