“Wait,” Ivy panted.

He raised his head from her neck to look at her. “What’s wrong?”

“I need to shower.”

“No you don’t.” His lips landed back on her neck as his fingers found the clasp of her bra and unhooked it.

She pushed at his shoulder. “I don’t feel clean. I’ve been on an airplane and those things are full of germs. And then at a football game for over three hours. Not to mention the rental car. Do you know how many people have sat in that seat I was just sitting on?”

Colt dropped his forehead to her shoulder and his started to shake.

“Why are you laughing?”

He lifted his head. “It’s either that or cry. It’s been six very long weeks since we’ve had sex.”

“And another few minutes won’t kill you.”

“It might.” His tone was dead serious, but he ruined the effect when his lips twitched. Letting her drop to the floor, he kept hold of her waist until she got her balance.

“I’ll be quick.” Ivy gave him a peck on the cheek and scurried around him, grabbing the duffle and tossing it on the bed to dig through it. She pulled out the two-pack of toothbrushes, box of toothpaste, and the cute pink with black polka dot short and cami PJ set they’d picked up. On second thought, with a small grin, she shoved the PJs back in. She wouldn’t be needing them.

Her steps faltered at the threshold to the bathroom. She turned back around. Colt sat on the edge of the bed, head down, untying his boots. “Hey.” He raised his head to look at her. “You saidwehaven’t had sex, as in you and I. Have you…” Her sentence trailed off, her throat closing, unable to get the rest of her thought out.

He toed off his boots and stood, coming straight for her. His hands cupped her face, and he tilted her head back and kissed her. Softly this time but with just as much feeling. He ended the kiss, looking her in the eyes. “No.”

Relief filled her chest, and she took a deep breath before smiling. “Okay, good. I haven’t either.”

He kissed her lips one more time then turned her by the shoulders to face the bathroom. “Hurry up and shower.”

“Jeez, impatient much?”

“Yes,” was growled by her ear as he gave her shoulders a little push.

She chuckled as the bathroom door closed behind her.

Dumping the stuff she held on the counter, she flipped the shower on and stripped out of her clothes.

She hadn’t thought she had taken that long, but when she opened the door, she found Colt passed out on the bed. She padded her way across the carpeting, holding the towel in place around herself, stopping at the edge of the bed to gaze down at him.

Bare chested with the sheet pulled to his waist, he slept with one arm draped over his stomach while the other was tucked under his head. “Colt?”

All she got for an answer was the rhythmic rise and fall of his chest.

Her eyes darted to the duffle now sitting on the dresser. Welp, guess she’d be needing those pajamas after all.

The feel of calloused fingers trailing up her leg and warm lips pressed to her neck slowly woke her. She shifted, her legs parting, the fingers finding the inside of her thigh.

“You’re awake?” Colt’s heated breath tickled along the underside of her jaw.

“Hmmm.” She stretched, arching her back.

“I’ll take that as a yes.” His touch grew more aggressive, his fingers dipping under the hem of her shorts to find her heat. They paused for the barest of seconds when they encountered no panties barring their path and felt him smile against her skin.

A finger slid between her folds, collecting the wetness there, before finding her clit. And he worked it, her hips moving in tandem with his finger until she was right on the brink.

“Come for me.” The gruff words so close to her ear sent her over the edge.

Still coming down from her high, he stripped her of her clothes, pulling the camisole over her head and sliding off her shorts. Positioning himself between her legs, his touch was light, almost reverent, as he caressed up her thighs, over her hips and ribs, the sides of her breasts. Hovering over her, pushup style, he brought his face close. But he didn’t close the distance to kiss her. Instead, he stared into her eyes as he slowly entered her. And he kept her eyes as he just as slowly moved in and out.
