Smiling, she sighed at how cute he could be. He said so little, but when he did say something, it said so much.

“Well, I’m back, so no need to worry. Go back to sleep. You deserve to get a good night’s sleep.”

His lips grazed her earlobe, and he whispered, “Always so bossy, Kate.”

“It’s one of my best traits. I knew you’d get used to it,” she teased him as he pressed his hips forward and angled his cock against her ass.

“Mmmm. I could get used to something else I like much better.”

She knew exactly what he meant and couldn’t disagree. Sex with him was definitely much better than her lame attempts to boss him around.

And she could absolutely get used to it.

“Oh yeah? Got any suggestions?” she asked, turning her head to look at him.

Wide awake, he smiled and licked his lips. “Round two sounds good, don’t you think?”

As he slid her under him, she couldn’t think of anything that sounded better.

Chapter Seventeen

The sight ofKate lying naked beneath him made Roman want to take her again, but this time without foreplay. She felt so good against him that kissing and whispering sweet nothings in her ear wouldn’t do it for him. He wanted to be inside her again, making love to her like she deserved, filling her until nothing separated their bodies.

“You look like you have something on your mind,” she said with a cute smile that made him feel guilty for what he’d been fantasizing doing to her.

“Just thinking of how good it’s going to feel being inside you.”

She winced and a tiny moan escaped her throat. “You don’t say much, but when you do talk, you sure know what to say to get a girl going.”

He trailed his fingertip down between her breasts and let it come to rest just above her belly button. “Good. I know other ways to get you going too.”

Kate arched her back and opened her legs wider so his body sat in between them. “I do love a man who has skills,” she cooed.

Her sweetness made him want to devour her all the more. Sliding down her body, he kissed the exact path his finger had traveled, staring up at her to see her face as he drew closer to the delicious goal between her legs.

The moment his mouth grazed her tender skin, her eyes rolled back in her head and she moaned his name. Hearing that made him hard as a rock, but he needed to take his time. Kate wasn’t just some casual hook up, meaningless and easily forgotten. They may not have known each other for long, but she’d ignited a long dormant spark inside him that made him want more than just a throwaway roll in the hay.

Her fingers threaded through his short hair, tugging his head toward her to keep his mouth where it gave her the most pleasure. Her skin felt like silk against his lips, and she tasted like heaven. As much as he wanted to watch as he gave her another orgasm, he couldn’t stop his eyes from closing as he reveled in her.

“Oh, that feels so good, Roman,” she said in a dreamy voice.

But he wanted her to feel even better. Sliding his middle finger inside her, he hooked it and rubbed in tiny circles, remembering how Xavier had said this was the one thing that could drive a woman crazy. He opened his eyes and watched to see if his teammate had been correct.

Kate pressed her knees open even wider and arched her back, staring down at him as he caressed her tender skin. Tearing her hands away from his head, she sunk her hands into the sheets next to her and squeezed them tightly in her hands.

“Oh my…what are you…oh my God, don’t stop…right there…” she moaned, her words heavy with need.

Moments later, her body tightened around his finger, and she came, a tiny squeal escaping from her mouth before she buried her head in the pillow and closed her thighs to the sides of his head. He pressed his mouth against her and rode her orgasm until the very last aftershock tapered off and Kate fell still beneath him.

Clearly, Xavier had been right. And all along he’d thought the nerd of the group had just been the world’s biggest bullshitter. Well, he still thought that, but at least on this one thing, he’d been right.

“I don’t think I can move my legs. Or my arms, for that matter. I’m the definition of boneless,” Kate said with a smile. “Were you a porn star before this job?”

Roman couldn’t help but laugh at her compliment. At least, that’s how he was taking that comment.

Sitting back on his heels, he shook his head. “Nope. Definitely not a porn star.”

She bit her lip in that cute way she sometimes did and asked, “Maybe it was a part time job then? Because I don’t know what you did there, but that was incredible. Damn.”
