She kissed his cheek and then rolled out of bed and walked to the bathroom. His cock twitched again as he watched her ass sway gently. How on earth could he possibly still be able to get hard? Damn, even his ass hurt.

He stroked himself a few times and winced. He didn’t remember ever being so sore from a night of passion. Maybe he needed to practice more.

Anna giggled from across the room and he looked up to see her standing in the doorway, still naked.

“What are you giggling about?” he asked.

“Your expression. You went from looking like you were in pain to a very seductive smile.”

“I am sore from last night.” He shrugged and gave her a sheepish smile.

“Your ass?” Her grin was adorable.

“No. Well, yes, partially. But I think my cock is out of practice.”

Her grin widened and she walked back to the bed, her eyes dark with lust. “Maybe I should kiss it and make it better?” She kneeled on the bed and pulled the covers back.

“Oh, Anna . . . I love you . . .”

Anna smiled as she did her warm-up at the barre. Last night had been... unexpected. Amazing and unexpected. She had no idea that Alex consuming her could be so erotic. She almost didn’t want to wait a week. But if they did that every night, she wouldn’t be able to dance. She was having a hard enough time gathering her energy just for today.

And Sebastian! She’d only been with him the one time, the night before her wedding, but being with him and Alex together was unbelievable. She hadn’t known what to expect when Sebastian had started playing with Alex, but oh, my! She’d been incredibly turned on by watching them together.

“Anna?” Vincent’s voice dragged her out of her daydream and she blushed, realizing she’d stopped dancing.

“Sorry, Vincent.” She turned around to match the direction the other dancers were facing and began the steps again.

Vincent walked over to her and chuckled. “I’m glad you and Alex are getting along again.”

Anna smiled shyly. “Is it that obvious?”

He gave her an affectionate smile and nodded before walking away.

Chapter 172

The days passed too quickly and before she knew it, Alex was getting ready to leave for Boston for his next Assassination assignment. It was Sunday morning and Anna sat on their bed, watching him pack his things and trying not to cry.

“I will come home on Wednesday to see you,” Alex repeated for the hundredth time, an understanding smile on his face. “I will come home to you, Anna.”

Anna swallowed back her tears. She didn’t have bad feelings about this one like she’d had before he disappeared, but it didn’t make it any easier. “I know,” she finally whispered.

“You can call me at any time. I will turn my phone off only when I must.” He smiled. “You wouldn’t want my phone to vibrate when I’m taking my shot, would you?”

Anna let out a mix of a laugh and a cry and shook her head.

“Sebastian will keep an eye on you. If there is an emergency, close your eyes and think of him. He will feel you.”

Sebastian was going with Alex, but he could stay connected to Anna while he was gone. Boston wasn’t that far away. Too far for Alex to feel her, but not too far for Sebastian.

“Remember, I don’t mind if you go out with your friends.” Alex sat next to her and put his arm around her, kissing her temple. “I trust you, Anna. Please don’t betray my trust.”

Anna nodded and sniffed. She had no desire to be with anyone but Alex.

“I don’t know when Devin will arrive in the area for Rylan’s funeral. He’ll most likely come and visit Tom beforehand, since the cities are so close. When Tom calls to let you know he’s on the east coast, please stay in the condo, just to be safe. On this floor.”

“What if he’s here Thursday night?”

“Tom will do what he can to shield you from Devin. Sebastian flashing into town would be noticed by Devin. Keep your phone with you. Tom will call if there’s a problem.”
