“So, pee.”
“I will not. I want some privacy,” Sophie declared.
Suddenly, she was airborne, his fingers digging into her hips as her ass landed in the bowl.
“Actually, Angel,” Derek murmured. “Don’t pee. It will make this more intense.”
“What—”
His lips slanted over hers, ravaging her lips ruthlessly in deep, plundering strokes. She got giddy. His fingers lightly brushed her thighs, moving his hips between them as he yanked her closer so her throbbing center hit his arousal.
He groaned into her mouth and started trailing his lips down her shoulder, nudging one strap off to bare one breast. He suckled and sucked and grazed his teeth on her nipple.
Sophie whimpered.
He tore her panties off and immediately touched her there. In a place she’d never thought she’d feel a man’s touch again and want it. This time instead of freezing, she was on fire. The sharp pleasure started from her belly and shot straight to her sex. A raging wave of hunger threatening to break through a dam that had impounded it for so long.
“Derek…”
He raised his head and looked into her eyes. “Stay with me, Sophie.”
“Yes,” she breathed throatily.
His chocolate eyes were now molten with his own desire as his fingers teased the slit of her sex, spreading her and finding her slick. His thumb massaged her clit harder.
“Damn, Angel, you’re so wet,” Derek groaned. He kept his gaze on her, but Sophie could tell he wanted to just crush her to him.
He sank one finger inside her, feeling him shudder even as her need coiled tighter. He sank a second finger and started pounding into her—in and out his long fingers went while his thumb maintained pressure against her clit.
“Come for me, Angel,” he rasped, his eyes darkening. The pressure built and built, Sophie gyrating her hips madly until she finally blew apart as she came while his fingers continued thrusting into her.
“Oh god, oh god!” Sophie cried. “Derek!” She couldn’t help but bury her face into the crook of his neck, trembling with the aftershocks of the orgasm that ripped through her body.
“That’s it, Sophie,” Derek murmured into her hair as he continued stroking between her thighs and with the other arm adjusted her so her upper body was flushed with his. “Let go, baby.”
Sophie was shocked by the insane pleasure she derived just from Derek’s fingers. She slowly descended from her high, satiated. “That was…amazing.”
“You’re welcome.”
“You’re really good with your fingers.”
“I’m better with my tongue.” Derek grinned at her and her heart stopped. He looked so boyishly handsome when he smiled, so different from when he was being all bossy—he looked like a hard-ass military then.
Sophie lowered her hand and brushed her fingers lightly on his erection. He inhaled sharply and she smiled. “Do you want me to do something for you?” she asked, a bit bashfully.
Derek’s eyes glittered, partly amused, partly in lust, and partly in pain. He stilled her hand and pulled it away from him. “No, Angel. The first time I come with you, I come inside you.”
He gave her a chaste kiss on the forehead. “We’ll take it slow. Go get ready, we have an early meeting at AGS.”

Derek was baffledby the atmosphere in the situation room where Maia was presently debriefing Sophie, Jack and himself. The Guardian had decided to do a joint debrief. As Maia questioned Sophie about yesterday’s events, he noticed the serene look on the redhead’s face which was in stark contrast to the pinched look on her husband’s.
Jack obviously went on a bender last night and had not slept well. His eyes were bloodshot, his demeanor subdued. His friend had his gaze fixed on Maia for some time now, a look of uncertainty and—guilt? When Maia reached out to pause the digital recorder, Derek’s gaze shifted back to her and he frowned when he noticed the bruises on her wrist. The marks encircled her wrist and were undoubtedly caused by a vise-like grip.
His jaw clenching, Derek scowled at Jack who had chosen that moment to look at him. Unspoken words passed between them. His friend sighed and continued to look dejected.
After the debrief,Maia filled them in on the Abu-Haxa leader they had in custody.
