“Then I’ll just have to keep going until you get it right.”

“Are you trying to get me fired?”

I flick my tongue against her clit again, making her thighs tighten around my head.

“No,” I murmur. “I’m trying to make you come.”

A strangled sound leaves her throat, halfway between a whimper and a groan. Her legs part even wider, giving me full access, and I dive in, savoring the way she melts under my touch.

I wasn’t prepared for just how fucking hot this would be. The risk, the taste of her, the way she’s trying so hard to stay quiet—it’s all making me hard as a rock. It crosses my mind that there could be security cameras in here, but if there are, I don’t think they can see me under the desk.

And even if they could, I wouldn’t stop.

The only thing that matters to me is the beautiful woman in front of me, breathing raggedly and squirming in her seat like she’s barely holding on.

I nip at her clit, but before I can murmur more filthy words of praise, a muffled noise carries through the open office doorway. Above me, Hannah stiffens, her thighs clamping down around my head in pure panic.

At first, I think she’s just trying to hold back from coming, but then she clears her throat and straightens up in the chair a bit.

“Aaron,” she says, and my entire body goes rigid.

Chapter32

Hannah

My breath catches in my throat and adrenaline courses through me as I stare into Aaron’s eyes. I don’t dare move, not even a single inch, out of fear that he’s going to somehow see Declan with his face trapped between my legs. I want to believe that Declan was right about no one being able to see him from the doorway, but my hammering heart isn’t buying it.

Still, the thrill of almost being caught only intensifies the pleasure coursing through me.

What the hell is my ex doing here anyway?

The thought arcs through my mind like a bolt of lightning. It feels like two worlds colliding—my old life smashing into my new one—and I’m caught right in the middle of it all. Aaron is pretty much the last person I want to see, much less standing in the office doorway where the desk is the only thing stopping him from seeing what Declan is doing to me. What Declan is doing soincrediblywell.

Thankfully, Declan heard me say Aaron’s name, so he’s not moving.

Aaron stopped in the doorway when I said his name, and I can’t get up without giving myself away, so I just gesture for him to stay where he is. He shoots me an annoyed look but remains in place, and I feel my heart thudding in my chest. Declan’s tongue remains perfectly still against my most sensitive spot, the heat of his mouth a delicious torture.

“What are you doing here?” I ask, doing my best to keep my voice even and natural sounding, but it still comes out a little shaky. And a little more forceful than it probably should be. But I can’t help it. Not only did he stop by my workplace without warning, he did it just as Declan was about to make me fall apart—and I’m anxious to get back to that.

Whatever he wants, just act normal and get him to leave as soon as possible.

“Do you need something?” I ask, raising my brows. “Because I’m actually finishing up some wo?—”

I break off with a sharp inhale as Declan’s tongue slides against my clit, teasing the piercing and making me flinch as my heart jumps right into my throat. A bolt of pleasure shoots through me, and I bite the inside of my cheek to keep from moaning. It takes everything I have not to let the sensations I’m feeling show on my face or in my body language.

Aaron stares at me quizzically for a moment, but I can’t tell if it’s because he’s trying to decide how to answer my question or if he noticed that something seems off about me. I’m really, really hoping it’s the former.

“I thought I’d find you here,” he says, not really answering my question. Then he sighs and takes a step forward.

I tense up, my heart steadily clawing its way up my throat, thumping hard.

Thump. He’s going to see.Thump. He’s going to tell my parents.Thump. He’s going to ruin everything.Thump. Just like he always does.

“Well, you found me, “ I say, my voice a bit strained and thready as Declan’s tongue drags back through my folds. I can’t see his face, but I can almost guarantee he’s loving every second of toying with me like this. And god help me, part of me likes it too, this dangerous game we’re playing.

I’m not even sure Declan would mind if Aaron figured out what’s going on and saw him with his head between my legs—but luckily, Aaron seems totally oblivious.

My ex sighs and runs a hand over his face. “Look, babe. Maybe I shouldn’t have just shown up like this. But I just haven’t been able to get you out of my head, no matter how hard I try. And I can’t help thinking that’s a sign that I need to give our relationship another chance. That we both need to give it another chance.”
