Page 37 of Heart Set on You

I hear myself moan, and suddenly remember how dangerous this is. Anyone could knock on this door – Josh, Violet, Georgia, anyone who works on this set. I need a lobotomy for doing this here and right now.

But I can’t stop.

I can’t stop when he’s fucking me like this, when his tongue finds mine, when he begins to grind against me. Or when he tells me against my ear that we’re a perfect fit, that it’s never been better. The feeling coursing through me is white hot passion, overwhelming pleasure.

“You’re mine, Rylee,” he growls. “It’s you I want.”

“Yours,” I whimper. “I’m yours.” He wants me; there’s no doubt. It’s heady to realize that. I feel like I’m floating on air, soaring above the clouds.

“Fuck… Rylee, you feel so good… it’s overwhelming.” I can feel he’s almost there, the tone in his voice giving him away. He’s slowly losing all control. His hand cups the nape of my neck, and he’s panting and thrusting. “I need to know you’re all mine.”

“I’m yours…only yours.” I just get out the words when he pushes me over the edge. He continues to thrust deep inside of me as I ride out my orgasm, the intensity so strong I need to use his shoulder to muffle my cries. Pleasure explodes out of me, a dreamlike out-of-body experience that makes my eyes roll back in my head.

When he comes seconds after me, I feel every bit of it. He pulses and rocks into me once, twice, three times until he stills. We shudder together before burying our faces into each other’s necks, his heart beating rapidly against my chest.

“I love how it feels with you,” he manages to say through labored breaths. “It felt so good without a condom. It was-“

“Insanely good.”

We both laugh. “It was.”

“For me too, Miles.”

I’m pinned against the door, my legs wrapped around his back until I start to sag against the wall. What was I thinking, having sex with Miles at work? My brain obviously short-circuits around him.

I feel the loss immediately when he slips out of me and slides me down steadying me. “You’re fucking beautiful, Rylee.”

Not what I expected, and I’m left speechless. He pulls up his pants, tucking himself back in, then finds my lace panties and slides them up my legs. “You’re flushed. I like this look on you.”

Running my fingers lightly against my lips, I can feel they’re swollen from his kisses. I can still feel the sensation of his mouth on mine.

“Are you going to be okay today?” he asks, smoothing my hair behind my ear.

“I’m a little tired, but I’ll be fine.”

“That’s not what I was referring to,” he says, his voice low and soft. His eyes study mine. “I don’t want you to feel uncomfortable on set after what we just did.”

“I won’t be,” I say, though I know I totally will be.

“We were quiet. I made sure. I would never do anything to embarrass you.” He presses a chaste kiss to my neck, his hands cupping my jaw. My cheeks flame.

“I know.”

He straightens himself out then pulls me into him, wrapping his arms tightly around my middle. I relax against his warm body and close my eyes. A minute later, Miles kisses me goodbye, needing to get back to set before anyone notices he’s missing. I worry who might be outside when he opens the trailer door. I’m anxious at the idea of getting caught. “Coast is clear, Ryls. You go first.”

I slip out the trailer door, hyper-aware that I am the girl who just slept with the lead on set. I can’t believe that just happened.

It was exciting and thrilling and incredible. And completely unlike me.

Now for the walk of shame.

“Rylee, I swear… you’d better tell me what’s going on. I know something is up.”

My brother knows exactly how to read me. He always has, ever since we were kids. He also always cuts right to the chase. With three kids under seven at home, I don’t think he has time to drag things out.

My stomach dropped when I saw his name light up my phone screen just before 8 a.m. this morning. It was unlike him to call so early. I answered the phone in a panic. Are Gran and Gramps okay? Thankfully, it turns out he was only calling to check in on me. It had been some time and Cara had been on him to see how I was.
