Page 71 of Loving the CEO

"Tory, I'll make things easy. I'll give you two options, and I want you to know that I'm good with whichever you choose, okay?"

"All r-right," she stuttered.

"Do you want to forget that night?"

She didn't say anything for a few seconds, and when the silence felt too unbearable, I looked up at her. She pushed a strand of hair behind her ear with both hands, then took a deep breath.

"No, I don't want to forget about it. Not in a million years. I keep thinking about it. I keep wanting a repeat," she whispered.

"Fuck," I exclaimed. The next second, I tilted her chin up. She dropped her hands. "You mean it? I need to know that you do."

"Of course I do."

Chapter Seventeen

Leo

This was good. She’d had time to think about it, and she still wanted this. Us. Wantedme.

I put both hands on her cheeks because I simply needed to touch her. I was addicted to her.

"Tory," I murmured. I kissed her forehead, keeping my lips there. "Every time I tell myself that I'm going to be better..."

"What are you talking about? You've been amazing."

"I need to know what exactly you want, what you need."

There was a pause, and then she whispered, "You. I just need you. I don't want to overthink this."

And I was a goner. My vision failed for a split second. My cock twitched. I tilted slightly backward, looking down at her before kissing her in the middle of my kitchen. She dropped the scone she was holding onto the counter and put her delicate hand at the back of my neck. I felt her move up my body and realized she was lifting herself onto her toes. I grabbed her ass with both hands, hoisting her up above my waist so she was at my level. Then I kissed her so deeply that I nearly lost my mind. She tasted sweet and just as delicious as I remembered from our night together.

When I paused to breathe, she smiled against my mouth, then traced the contour of my lips with the tip of her tongue. I needed to get herupstairs. I was going to make her mine today. Probably more than once, but it wasn't going to happen here on the fucking kitchen counter. Oh, I'd fuck her here, too, but not the first time.

I held her tightly to me, walking with her through the house.

“Where are we going?" she whispered.

"Upstairs."

A shudder ran through her body.

"If you change your mind..."

"No, no, I couldn't. I want you too much, Leo."

Fucking hell. This woman is going to be the death of me.

"Tory, I'm going to have you right here on the staircase if you continue with that," I growled.

"I'm not stopping you.”

She kissed down my jaw and Adam's apple. I tightened my grip on her and realized that whatever panties she was wearing had to be tiny because I couldn't even feel any panty line. Or maybe she wasn't wearing any at all.

Her mouth was now on the lower part of my neck at the hem of my T-shirt.

"I fantasized about licking you everywhere that night," she said, "but you never gave me a chance."

I almost lowered her onto the step and sank inside her right here. She had no idea of the effect she had on me.
