I grinned, liking this game better by the moment.

“How often do you find yourself doing this?” he asked, his voice thick.

“In front of someone or by myself?”

He tensed instantly. “Both.”

“Never before and not as often as I probably should be.”

“What else haven’t you done?” His hands slid up my bare thighs.

“I’ve never had sex in a limo.”

“Any other skills on which you need further training?” Thumbs hooked on the side of my thong, working it down.

I bit my lip. “You tell me. How was it in the shower earlier?”

A satisfied smile came over his handsome face. “I would say you’re an expert in your field of expertise.”

“Excellent. I’ll update my résumé.”

He chuckled. “How do you feel about working exclusively with me during this project?”

I wondered if he meant it how it sounded. “No moonlighting or outsourcing of my duties?”

His eyes darkened. “Absolutely not. I’m very demanding and require one-on-one attention while I’m here on site.”

I gasped the moment he dropped his face and buried it in my pussy. “Let me guess. Long hours, grueling schedule, and lots of overtime.”

“Yes. But amazing benefits,” he mumbled against my skin, the reverberation sending tingles down to my toes. He thrust two fingers inside me, so deep that I cried out. I was already wet, but when I looked down and watched him moving in and out, I became soaked. I was so unbelievably turned on by what he could do with my body.

“God, I hope I get the job,” I gasped just as he took me over the edge.

I woke to the sound of Simon’s voice. “Peyton, time to get up. We’re almost at your house.”

Slowly coming awake, I stretched, remembering I was in the back of a limo. Quite naked and wrapped in a blanket on the bench seat. Glancing at him, I found he was already dressed back in his suit. It was amazing how much more quickly a twenty-five-hour ride went when you spent most of it having sex.

“The trip went by a lot quicker this time.” We’d stopped a few times, dressing quickly first, then eating, a change of drivers—after which we’d be back at it. I was sure Simon had been inside of me in every single state we’d driven through.

Hm. Except Texas. Guess there’d be an opportunity for the Lone Star State some other time. At the moment, I was way too excited to get out of this car, have a shower, climb into my own bed, and see my dog.

“It did go by quickly.”

I grinned. In minutes, I had dressed and was now pulling on my shoes. “Too bad we didn’t think of that way to pass the time on the way to New York.”

It was his turn to grin. “I was thinking it. But I had to wait until the interviews were completed first.”

So that had been his line in the sand.

The car pulled up to the curb in front of my house a few minutes later. “I’ll help you with your things,” he offered and then walked me up to my front porch.

I opened my front door to an anxious Cooper. He was doing his little dance of joy and whining. “My sister dropped him off about an hour ago.” I hadn’t wanted to come home to an empty house.

Simon stroked his head while I rubbed his body. “Someone is sure happy to see you.”

Meeting his gaze, I wanted him to know how much I appreciated his efforts. “Thank you. For making this happen. For the date and the limo. For everything.”

He leaned in, but then, as if remembering we were on my front porch, he shoved his hands in his suit pockets. “You’re welcome. I, uh, guess I’ll see you tomorrow.”

“Funny how you can kiss me after our first date but not after an entire limo-inspired sex marathon across half the country.”

His face turned a particular shade of pink I hadn’t seen before. Then, suddenly, he was backing me into my house. He shut the door and dipped me in dramatic fashion for a kiss for the ages. “How was that?”

Cooper was whining around us, the driver was waiting, and I was grinning from ear to ear. I touched his face. “Epic. See you tomorrow.”

He gave me one last kiss on my forehead before setting me on my feet.

As I watched him walk away, get in the limo, and drive off, I wondered what the coming week would have in store for us.
