Nowhere, actually.For the first time in months, I didn't have anywhere to be except right here in his bed.
"I have work to finish."
"No."His voice was firm, leaving no room for argument."Today you're mine.No work, no stress, no thinking about anything except how good I can make you feel."
The possessive words sent another spike of arousal through me."Yours?"
"Mine."He moved up to kiss me, slow and deep."At least for today."
I should have protested.Should have reminded him that I didn't belong to anyone and that this was just sex.But how he was looking at me, like I was something he wanted to protect and cherish and devour all at once, made me want to belong to him.
Just for today.
"Okay," I heard myself say."Just for today."
His smile was triumphant."Good girl.Now let me go get that coffee and food.You're going to need your energy."
"For what?"
"For everything else I plan to do to you."He pressed one more kiss to my lips before getting out of bed, completely unselfconscious about his nakedness.
I watched him walk to the kitchen, admiring the play of muscles in his back and thighs.The man was built like a god, and he'd used that body to worship mine all night long.
When he came back with coffee and what looked like expensive pastries from the bakery down the street, I was still lying in his bed, the sheet pulled up to cover my breasts.
"Breakfast in bed?"I asked, accepting the mug he handed me.
"First course."His eyes were already turning dark with renewed desire."I plan to have you for the main course.And dessert.And probably a midnight snack."
The explicit promise made me clench with need again.How was I already wanting him when he'd just given me an orgasm that had left me boneless?
"You're insatiable," I accused.
"Only with you."He sat on the edge of the bed, his hand settling on my thigh through the sheet."I've been thinking about having you for weeks, Nicole.One night isn't going to be nearly enough."
"What are you saying?"
"I'm saying I want more than just today."His thumb traced patterns on my leg that were making it hard to concentrate."I'm saying I want to see where this goes."
"Where can it go?You're leaving in four months."
"Maybe I don't have to."
The words hung between us, loaded with possibility that both thrilled me and made me want to run.
"Shawn, we can't just pretend like you're not temporary here.Like you have a whole life that doesn't include me or this city."
"Don't overthink it," he said, leaning down to kiss me."We don't have to figure everything out today.We just have to figure out what we want right now."
"What do you want right now?"
His grin was wicked."To see how many times I can make you scream my name before dinner."
The challenge in his voice made me set down my coffee mug and drop the sheet.If he wanted to play, I was ready to learn the rules.
"Show me," I said, and watched his eyes go nearly black with want.
He was on me in seconds, and this time when he kissed me, there was nothing gentle about it.It was hungry and demanding and full of promises about exactly how he planned to spend the rest of the day.
