I smashed the up arrow with a thumb and yanked her against me. When the doors slid open, she pushed me inside, jammed the button to our floor, and pounced like a playful kitten, her arms coming around my neck as her lips slammed into mine. It was an instant high. She was everywhere, surrounding and consuming me so completely, all my senses could register was her.

Delving deeper into her mouth, my hands skimmed down her back to the swell of her ass, pulling her impossibly closer. She hitched a leg around my waist and I scooped her up, my fingers digging into the bottoms of her thighs as the elevator dinged and the doors slid open on our floor.

I barreled us into the hallway like a bat out of hell and if anyone passed us on the way to our suite, we didn't take notice, nor did I give a single shit. Apparently Hazel didn't either.

Upon reaching our room, I all but rammed us into the wall, a loud thud resonating around us from the impact. Hazel threw her head back and laughed as I reached into my back pocket and pulled out my wallet, flipping it open with a flick of my wrist.

“Grab the card, baby. It's with the cash.”

A devilish little grin spread across her face as she pulled the card out and held it between two fingers.

Suddenly the door behind us flew open followed by Jason's irritated voice carrying through the hallway. "What in the actual hell, Hazel?!" He gritted out, clearly unhappy with the less than appropriate display taking place not ten feet away from him.

Hazel giggled in my grasp as I snatched the card and slid it into the slot to unlock the door. Barging us into the room, I muttered over my shoulder, "Goodnight, Jason," before promptly slamming the door shut with my foot and pushing her flush against it.

“Where were we?” I asked gruffly,

“Right. Here.” She smashed her lips to mine, devouring me impatiently once more.

Small hands flew to my shirt, her fingers fumbling frantically with the buttons, managing to undo only the first two. She growled in frustration and pulled my shirt apart without an ounce of strain, sending several buttons to go flying through the air.

Her nails raked down my chest and I hissed through my teeth, so fucking turned on I couldn't see straight as I trudged through the darkened suite and threw her onto the bed.

She squealed and propped herself up on her hands, a sly grin spreading across her face. “Get naked, Knox. Like now.”

Shrugging off my shirt, I trapped her beneath one leg and creeped over her, pressing her into the mattress. “And what if I said no, Miss Perry?”

“Then I'd do it for you. I’ve already ruined your shirt, don't think I won't do the same to your pants, Mr. Carr,” she purred, fiddling with the buckle of my belt.

“So eager.” I chuckled. “You’re a demanding little kitten, aren’t you?”

“For you, I'll be anything you want me to be.”

“Minewill suffice.”

Even in the darkness surrounding us, I could see the rosy hue rising in her cheeks.

“Then let’s get these get off, shall we?” She asked quietly.

When I nodded, she pushed me onto my back and made quick work of my pants, sliding them effortlessly down my legs as she shimmied to the end of the bed.

She discarded them on the floor without care and promptly began sliding out of her dress, slowly revealing inch after inch of her decadently soft skin. The sight of her at the foot of the bed, completely baring herself for me was the most beautiful thing I'd ever seen.

A feral growl ripped from my chest as I drank her in greedily, memorizing each fine detail of her body shadowed by the moonlight casting in from the window—not one dip, swell, or curve forgotten.

“Come here.” I beckoned her, crooking a finger.

Hazel obliged and crawled toward me with a wicked gleam in her eyes, flashing her tongue out along the bottom of my shaft as she ascended over me.

The unexpected warmth from her mouth earned her a groan I couldn’t subdue and she smiled, all too pleased with my reaction. With a quick hand, I clenched her hair in my fist and guided her the rest of the way, settling her in my lap.

“I'm only going to say this once, so listen very carefully. If I kiss it.”

I kissed her neck…

“Lick it.”

Another one on her chest…
