My body shook and trembled, vibrating as the need crawled up my legs, my waist and then my arms. My nipples tightened painfully, soothed only by the roughness of the short hairs on his stomach. My body convulsed uncontrollably, impaling myself on his cock while pleasure coursed through my veins. The sensation was delicious and I didn’t care that my mouth and my throat was full of him, I never wanted this moment to end. But all good things did eventually and when I swallowed, Lee lost it.

“Oh fuck,” he groaned against me, fucking me harder with his finger as he shot his load down my throat.

I couldn’t move so I swallowed it down, the salty honey coated my throat until he was wrung dry. His body jerked as I continued to suck him but he never asked me to stop, justmassaged my ass while his finger stayed buried deep and his tongue flicked at my clit. “Yes.”

His hips jerked one final time and he pulled his finger free from my body with a grunt. “So. Hot.”

I released him with a pop and rolled onto my back. “Really fucking hot. More than I expected.”

Lee sat up. “You really never did that before?”

“Nope. One at a time and not even all that often,” I admitted sheepishly. “But that was out of his world. The better you made me feel, the more it spurred me on to make you feel good. Like nothing I’ve ever felt.”

“Keep talking like that and I’ll be buried deep in your sweet body sooner rather than later.”

I laughed. “Don’t threaten me with an orgasmic time.” I couldn’t remember the last time I had so much fun with a man, especially naked.

“Nix,” he sighed. “I like you.”

I let out a heavy sigh of my own. “I like you too, Lee.”

“Against your better judgment?” There was a smirk on his face but I could tell that my answer mattered.

“No.” He deserved an honest answer. “I like you, full stop. I don’t have to like your business to like you, and I do. Like you, that is.”

His smile grew wider and wider until he was beaming at me. “Thank you.” He flipped his position and fit the front of his body to the back of mine and held me tight.

It was the most comfortable I’d felt with a man in a long time. I didn’t have to suck in my belly or pretend that I don’t like to sample my baked goods because Leelikedmy curves. I felt free to explore what I liked sexually with him, which was liberating in a whole new way.

Yeah, I was sleeping with the enemy—and enjoying it—but when he held me like he did and tucked his chin right over myshoulder, puffs of warm breath slowed as he fell into a gentle sleep, he didn’tfeellike the enemy.

He felt like something big.

Something important.

Something that was guaranteed to hurt in the end.

Chapter 10

Lee

Was there anything better than waking up with a gorgeous woman with delicious curves in your arms? If there was, I couldn’t think of it, not with Nix’s warmth and the way she buried her face in my chest in her sleep as if she couldn’t get enough of me. It was a damned addictive feeling, being wanted so completely. Maybe it was because she didn’twantto want me but she did anyway, that kept me feeling off-center. Maybe it was that she’d taken the time to get to know me even though she disliked me.

This can’t last.I knew it and I had a feeling she did too, but for the past three days we’d been in this little bubble while the storm raged outside. But this morning the wind wasn’t quite as loud and obnoxious and it looked as if the sun was trying to peek between the clouds, both sure signs the storm was raging with a lot less ferocity than the previous three days.

I closed my eyes, determined to luxuriate in the feel of her arms wrapped around me and the way she pressed little kisses to my chest while she slept. It had been three days of bliss. Three days of getting lost in her beautiful body and getting to know each other.

Three days of perfect.

When she woke up, Nix smiled at me as if she was happy to see me, which wasn’t a look I received often. “Good morning.”

“Good morning, Nix.” I smiled when she shivered at my greeting, or maybe it was the way my fingertips danced along her spine. “Sleep well?”

She nodded. “Incredibly well. You wore me out last night in the best way possible.” She stretched her muscles and moaned, the sound and the sight of her body had me hard already.

“I can’t believe the power is still out.” Not that I was in a hurry to leave, quite the opposite, but it made me wonder about the viability of my resort in a town with such poor infrastructure.

“Missing out on meetings and more world conquering?” Her tone was teasing but there was a bite to it.
