My tongue fluttered around the head, a slightly salty drop of liquid surprising me. It was so sexy arousing him this intensely.

His hips began to shift, angling his length deeper into my mouth. Breathing carefully through my nose, I took as much as I could while finding a steady rhythm that was clearly what he needed. My palms tightened as I felt him begin to twitch and throb.

Tyler’s breath hitched as he started to tense up. “Tana,” he choked, “Gorgeous...”

Increasing my speed, I sucked harder as he jerked in my mouth, his hand clutching my hair as he groaned. Thick liquid filled my mouth, and I swallowed hard, while staring up into his eyes. He seemed surprised, somehow.

I released him, sitting back on my heels and looking up into those deep blue eyes that were now glazed. Dreamy.

He pulled me by the shoulders so that I was straddling him again. Bringing his forehead to mine, he took a breath before muttering, “Sweetheart, that was incredible.”

I couldn’t help giggling. “That was okay for a first try?”

Tyler’s lips met mine in a slow, sultry kiss. Then he chuckled. “Well, we might have to practice more. A lot, actually. Several times a day.”

It was oddly comfortable laughing with him. But then I glanced at the clock. “You have to go. It’s been twenty-one minutes.”

“I can’t just leave after that,” he said, frowning as he looked at the time.

“I’ve already made you late. Get going, it’s okay,” I said with a grin.

Then he shook his head. “I’m so sorry, I really do have to run. I’ll call you tomorrow, okay?”

“Sure.”

We stood up, and I walked him to the door. Feeling his arms around me, his hands on my back, made me feel whole. It was strange how I’d never been so comfortable with a person before, ever.

“That was a helluva surprise,” Tyler murmured in my ear. “I was just coming over to make out with you.”

“Women are supposed to keep men guessing, right? Keep you on your toes?”

“I don’t know about that,” Tyler whispered in my ear. “Sweetheart, I really hate to take off right now.”

I laughed. “It’s fine. One for the road, so to speak.”

“Damn, you are so amazing,” he grinned, kissing me hard and deep. “I’ll call you soon. Sweet dreams.”

As he took off into the night, I couldn’t stop smiling. He really wanted me, and the feeling was beyond mutual. I couldn’t wait for our next date.

CHAPTER NINE

* Tyler *

Life was always chaotic, but the highs and lows were extra pointy this week. After Tana’s incredible surprise last night, I felt like I was floating on a cloud as I finished switching the trucks and organizing tools.

Then as soon as I got started this morning, things were back to the grind, and then some.

Our work had been going smoothly, but now this damn Wright Construction nonsense was throwing everything into chaos, and my uncle did not function well when he was stressed about people.

He could handle any carpentry mistake, fix any problem, and managed to hit every single deadline. No question. But

when he had to reprimand staff, or deal with a competitor, he became flighty and over-emotional.

Luckily, he had me to smooth things over.

As soon as I was done with the morning work, I went into the office and checked through the pitches we were submitting this week.

Even though it sounded like Wright Construction was trying to underbid and undermine our ability to get new business, they didn’t have the reputation that we did. With one of the three clients they were messing with, we already had a rapport, so they would most likely stick with us.
