With a soft whimper from her throat, she tilted her head, closing the distance between us again.

Delaney’s giggle interrupted our heated exchange, and we pulled away quickly.

“Look, Daddy! Ducky is so cute.” Delaney was on her knees now and turned her head to look at me, her eyes sparkling with amusement.

I glanced at the screen, taking a moment to regain my composure. “She sure is,” I muttered, distracted and disoriented from what had just happened.

Josie scooted over, putting the pillow between us, her cheeks flushed almost the same shade of pink as her swollen lips. “Excuse me.”

Before I could apologize or stop her from leaving, she was up and headed out of the room. For the love of all the dinosaurs finding tree stars, what had I done?

Unicorn Sneeze

As I stretchedand blinked my eyes open, the memories from last night came flooding back—the dinner and movie with Gabriel and Delaney, the reminder of everything I’d lost, and the way Gabriel had kissed me.

I squeezed my thighs together as I remembered the feeling of Gabriel’s lips on mine. The scratch of his stubble and the firmness of his fingers in my hair had caused heat to rush through my whole body.

Turning over, I tapped my phone to see the time. I had fifteen minutes before I had to get up, so I pulled open the nightstand and looked at my selection of toys, trying to decide which one I wanted to use.

Should I be getting off to what could have happened if we’d been alone, and I hadn’t freaked out? Probably not. The ache between my legs said otherwise.

Maybe I was silly getting so worked up over onelittle kiss, but damn, had it shattered the fragile boundary I’d half-heartedly put up. Would he have let things go further?

My fingers trembled as I grabbed the clit stimulator, the cool surface of it sending shivers down my spine. I needed to make this fast, since I still needed to shower. I slid the toy into my panties, my heart pounding in my chest as I turned it on and let my mind play out a fantasy.

Gabriel stood in my doorway, his eyes locked on me as I lay naked and vulnerable on the top of my covers. His hooded eyes roamed over my body, taking in every curve. My nipples hardened, and tingles raced straight between my legs.

“Please, Gabriel.” I squirmed on the bed, needing him like I craved.

He walked toward me, taking his sweet time to drive me crazy before he lowered on top of me. “Do you want me to stop?” His lips brushed against my ear.

I shook my head, unable to speak. He slid his hand between my legs, his fingers grazing against my clit. His mouth found mine, his tongue sliding between my lips as his fingers continued their exploration of my body.

He pressed his erection against me. “You want this, and I want to make you feel good,” he whispered against my skin as he moved down between my legs.

His tongue traced a path from my clit to my entrance. Heat radiated from his body as he pleasured me, his fingers sliding inside as his mouth moved against my most sensitive spot. The rhythm of his fingers and mouth were perfect, his teasing sending me closer and closer to the edge.

The vibrations and suction from my toy sent waves of pleasure coursing through me, making my back arch. My clitthrobbed, and I turned up the level on the toy. I was unable to stop the loud moan that escaped my lips, and I clenched the sheets with my free hand as the most intense orgasm I’d ever had ripped through me.

As I caught my breath, I realized that in less than an hour, I was going to have to look at Gabriel and not turn fifty shades of red. I threw my forearm over my eyes, the thought of seeing him already giving me preemptive embarrassment.

When my phone alarm went off, I got up and trudged to the shower. The warm water did little to wash away what I’d done. Gabriel’s kiss, and now my epic orgasm at the thought of him going down on me, had taken a hold of my thoughts.

It was reckless, considering our roles in each other’s lives. He was my employer; I was his nanny. We couldn’t be anything more. Delaney had already been through so much, and she didn’t need more nanny drama. I needed to remember why I was here—to support Delaney and to keep my creative exploits under wraps.

After my shower, I decided to dress professionally in slacks and a blouse, hoping my clothes would be a reminder to myself that I had a job to do. Staring at my reflection in the mirror, I sighed. My outfit was giving naughty secretary, instead of esteemed nanny vibes.

Get it together.Easier said than done, considering how damn attractive Gabriel was. And that kiss...No, stop.I shook the thoughts from my head.

Taking a deep breath, I grabbed my phone and the nanny binder and headed to the main house. The aroma of freshly brewed coffee pulled me to the kitchen like amagnet.

“Good morning.” I went straight to the coffee maker, lifting the lid and popping in the pod that was on the counter.

Gabriel turned from where he was standing in front of the window, peering out at the backyard. “Good morning.” His eyes lingered on me for a moment too long before he looked back out the window.
