“I know you’re busy.”

She stopped that.

“I’m NEVER too busy for you, EJ. Ever. That’s not going to happen. We’ll stay the day after we fix this. You, me, and Hotel Monteleone.”

He grinned.

“I could use a day away with you without anyone reaching us.”

Well, if that’s what he wanted, she could do that.

“Deal,” she said.

Later, she’d figure out HOW she was making that happen.

He held out his hand, and she thought it was to shake on it. That was anything but his plan.

As soon as she was in his grasp, he pulled her into his lap, and trapped her.

“Well, hello, gorgeous wife. Have some time now for me?” he asked.

She snorted.

“I mean, if you want to get naked with me, who am I to complain?”

Oh, that was his plan.

The security team was further away in the front of the jet, and Callen’s had a bed with a door in the back.

“Know what will make you feel better?” he asked, teasing her earlobe with his teeth.

Already, she had chills.

“Debauchery?” she asked since that was always at the top of her to-do list.

He purred wantonly into her ear, making goosebumps crisscross her body.

“Yeah, always, my sexy wife.”

Well, it looked as if she had a distraction for the next bit of time.

“Elizabeth,” he whispered, again, as if her name was some magical word, a talisman.

He loved the way it sounded.

Elizabeth took the initiative to explore. As of late, their time alone was limited, so she was going to make the most of it.

Why not?

Finding his mouth with hers, she kissed him, and it was one he’d never forget.

As he was lost in the mating of mouths, he moaned.

Elizabeth drove the kiss, showing him that she understood he was struggling. She wasn’t sure how else to convey it.

When he was troubled, he was more needy and wanton in bed.

The good thing was that she couldn’t get enough, and her proof was the wetness between her legs.
