He pressed even closer to her and sucked her clit between his lips, feeling her hips rise and fall on the bed as she bucked up toward him. He didn’t let up, just sucked even harder, flicking his tongue against her swollen bud.

Bailey cried out in surrender, her body quaking beneath him as he pushed her over the edge. Without waiting for her orgasm to end, he flipped her over on the bed, pulling her hips toward him. He entered her in one long stroke from behind, filling her with his thick length.

Her inner walls pulsed around him, her orgasm still continuing, and he watched as her fists clutched the sheets as she hung on. Taking her from behind was exhilarating—she was so small and perfect for him, he could easily curl his larger body around hers.

He thrust in so deeply in this position, he nearly came just from the tightness of her pussy.

“Noah, oh, I’m going to come again,” she panted, finally regaining some of her composure and thrusting back against him.

“That’s it, sunshine. I want you to come again. Take my cock and come on me. Let me have your pleasure.”

He hardened impossibly more, and as his thick length penetrated her again and again, he felt her walls spasm around him as she cried out, muffling her voice with the pillow. She collapsed on the bed, and he pulled her hips toward him, taking her from behind as he chased his own release.

He felt his balls tightening, and then he was releasing inside her molten core, coating her with his seed.

As he finally pulled free, he realized he still hadn’t used a condom. Now that he’d had her bare, it was impossible to imagine ever having any sort of barrier between them.

Noah gently rolled her over, ducking down for a kiss.

“Holy hell, cupcake,” she teased, and he burst into laughter.

“Sunshine, when the sex between us is that spectacular, you can call me whatever the hell you want.”

She laughed, her breasts rising and falling, and he rose and went to the bathroom, returning with a damp towel to wipe her off. A moment later he was back again, pulling her close after he’d climbed into bed.

“We might have to leave on a mission soon,” he said, his voice deep.

“Soon—like tonight?” she asked in surprise.

“No,” he soothed. “After we get back. Mason and I are on R&R for a couple of days. If there’s an emergency, the Alpha team would be called up.”

“Oh,” she said, frowning.

“Don’t worry about me, sunshine. This is my job. It’s what we’re trained to do. Sometimes we don’t get much notice when we’re sent out, so I don’t want you to worry if I’m gone later in the week.”

“You wouldn’t tell me you’re leaving?”

“Of course I’ll tell you. I’m just giving you a head’s up.”

“And I’ll give you the most amazing welcome home party ever when you return,” she said, smiling slyly at him.

“Hell, sunshine,” he muttered. “You’re going to be the death of me. How can I concentrate on an op when I know I’ve got you waiting at home?”

She shrugged, her breasts moving slightly as she lifted a shoulder. “I have to entice you to come back, right?” she asked innocently.

“No enticement needed,” he said with a low chuckle. “I can’t imagine life without you.”

Chapter 17

The next afternoon, their plane landed at the small, regional airport in Virginia Beach. Trees flew by the window as they touched down on the runway, and they raced along, eventually coming to a stop.

“Is that your SEAL team?” Bailey asked, glancing out the small window.

Noah looked out, grinning as he saw some of the guys. “I guess they missed us,” he quipped. “They can’t do anything without Mason and me.” He grabbed Bailey’s hand, and they walked down the small steps of the plane and onto the tarmac. Bailey’s sundress blew slightly in the breeze, and he gripped her hand tighter, thrilled that she was his.

“Viper!” Jacob shouted with a whoop, coming over to see them. “I heard we almost lost your sorry ass. What the fuck, man?”

Noah laughed good-naturedly, elbowing him in the side. “You would’ve missed me.”
