Page 60 of Emi's Hero

She rode the waves, her core pulsing with the force of her release.

When she finally fell back to earth and the soft mattress beneath her, she remembered how to breathe.

George climbed back up the bed to lie beside her, his hand resting lightly on her hip.

Still in the afterglow, Emi reached for his cock. “I want you inside me,” she said.

“And I want to be inside you so badly I’ll have blue balls by morning.” George shook his head. “But not tonight.”

Her hand wrapped around his dick. “Why not?”

He didn’t pull free of her grip. “You wanted to know what good sex is like for a woman without the remembered violence of penetration. Sex can feel good when your partner takes the time and effort to please you. Don’t settle for less.”

She cupped his cheek and stared into his beautiful blue eyes. “Thank you.”

He laughed. “Trust me...it was my pleasure watching you come apart.”

Emi lay back, a smile curving her lips, deliciously satisfied and still naked next to a naked man who hadn’t hit her or forced her to do things she didn’t want to do. He’d pleasured her without expecting anything in return.

George pulled her body against his, spooning her, his hard cock pressing between her butt cheeks.

She wiggled her ass, hoping to gain traction with his shaft.

“Not tonight,” he said as if forcing the words between gritted teeth.

“Are you sure?” she asked, wiggling again.

“Positive.” He lightly swatted her bottom. “Sleep, woman.”

A little disappointed but charmed by the man who’d sacrificed his own needs to see to hers, she lay still in the warmth of his arms and drifted into a deep, dreamless sleep.

Her last thought as she succumbed to slumber was that she’d see her daughter soon.

Please, please let us find her alive and well.

CHAPTER 14

George parked the rental car,climbed out and waited for Emi to help herself out on the other side. Since she’d come dressed as his kid brother, he had to treat her like a kid brother. He couldn’t hold doors or offer his arm to her. It would blow her cover and his.

“Comm check,” Hawk’s voice sounded in George’s ear.

“George, here,” George responded.

“Emi, here,” she said and grinned at George. She’d been excited all day. Practically giddy.

George kept reminding her that the operation could prove dangerous. She needed to stay with him at all times.

His gut clenched at the thought of Fallon recapturing her and hiding her someplace they’d never find her.

He couldn’t let that happen. He had too much of his heart and soul invested in the woman to lose her now.

“Devlin, here.”

“Reid, here.”

“Teller, here.”

“Rex, here.”
