It’s not like I’m very good at hiding them.

“Yeah, I do.”

“I didn’t even know you liked me,” he says.

“What?”

“When you first came into the fire station,” Connor explains. “I really thought you didn’t give one shit about me.”

“I’m glad I can make it seem I’m not biased in my journalism,” I reply. “But, yeah, I did like the look of you. It was inevitable. How could I not?”

“I like the use of that word,” Connor says as he leans down for another kiss. “Inevitable.”

“You thought this was inevitable?” I ask. “You thought I would be easy?”

“There are many words to describe you, Ember. Easy is certainly not one of them.”

He rests his arms on either side of the bed to me and kisses me gently. I seem to melt into the mattress as the strong man tenderly treats me.

Oh, God, we’re actually freaking kissing...

And then he’s turning more aggressive.

And I like it. I welcome it.

He’s really showing his tougher side now. His kisses become more passionate. He gets hungrier for my lips. I can sense his desire, and I fucking love it.

My hands move through his beautiful hair and across his sculptured face and jawline as he avidly kisses me like a beast. I love this fervor he’s got for me... for my body...

And then he moves away from my lips. His own go to my ear.

And then he’s whispering some dark words into my soul...

“I’d like to fuck you, Ember.”

I bite my lip.

Oh.

I nod, giving him the permission to do exactly that.

“Yes, Connor...”

The firefighter strips down and then proceeds to help me do the same.

He’s naked now, and I get to see him fully. His cock is thick, just like the rest of him. Another shiver of excitement runs through me.

He climbs on top of me – the bed shakes with his full frame.

Yes.

He kisses my neck.

He kisses my breasts, slowly turning his tongue around my nipples... sucking on me... making me moan. He’s kissing me all over now. I feel his beard on my bare skin.

He’s doing this for me, but I can tell how much he gets off on making me feel this pleasure. His turn-on sends me wild.

He scavenges for a condom in a drawer by his bed. As he kisses me, I feel him slide his cock into the condom.
