He looked almost sheepish about his statement, and I reached up for his face, pulling him closer. “Been tested, too. I’m good with it.” Then, I kissed him, and I gasped into his mouth as I felt the tip of him against me.

I leaned up to meet him, and with a shift in my hips, I guided him in. His first thrust brought him closer inside me, and I looked down at where we were joined, amazed that it actually fit. When he pulled out again, I grabbed him back to me and cried out when he thrust a second time, this time, filling me fully.

“I had no idea there was more of you,” I said against his mouth, and he nodded.

“I want you to take all of it, Cassie.” He began to move, slowly at first, his hips grinding against me as my legs spread and reached up and around his hips.

We didn’t kiss for a little as he moved, his eyes staring into mine. My hands moved slowly from his face to his shoulders and down the line of his back. As he sped up, so did the speed of my breath. I grabbed at his ass, trying to pull him closer.

The pleasure built and grew, spreading anew in a red flush over my skin. His thrusts became hard and ragged, and from his face, I could tell he was coming apart too. Arching upwards, my hands now loose on him, I came like I’d never come before as his cock hit that spot inside me over and over.

I screamed out his name, the sound echoing off the walls. He didn’t stop as my limbs trembled around him, and I turned to mush in the circle of his arms. His thrusting seemed to go on for ages, starting a new trail of pleasure before he too shook while I held him, my name a brief, holy whisper on his lips.

CHAPTER14

BRAD

My heart was practically beatingout of my chest as I stared down at Cassie under me. She was breathing hard too, her lips beautifully swollen from our kisses, and our skin covered in sweat. I had no words to describe that moment, but it was something. Something I’d never experienced before.

I slid off her and laid down next to her, our shoulders touching. I worried I’d done wrong, sleeping with an employee, but she soon shifted to her side, and her hand came across my stomach. When I looked at her, she was smiling, leaning up on her elbow as she looked at me.

“Well,” she said, with a flare of her eyes that was now growing familiar.

“Well,” I said back with a chuckle, glad to not see the look of regret on her face.

I reached out to brush my fingertip along her hairline and down her jaw. She really was singularly beautiful. One might easily see it when you first looked at her, but then when you looked again, you were surprised, as if you’d forgotten how beautiful she really was. Those gray eyes, full of fierceness and strength. That mouth, always full of the right words.

There weren’t really any words to say. Barriers had broken between us, even though I had a feeling that new ones would be built up again.

“You good?” I asked, lacking the right words.

“Yep.” A lazy smile crossed her face. “Very good.” She leaned over to kiss me, and this time, it was slow and thorough.

I could feel myself coming to life again, and a few minutes later, I was ready. When I was inside her once more, she came again like she did before, practically unraveling in my arms, and I felt pretty unraveled myself.

“Shit,” I said after the second time.

I laid back and put a hand over my chest to feel the speed of my heart.

“Doc Fox is truly insatiable,” she said, laughing and sitting up on the bed, pushing a pillow behind her.

“For you? Yeah.” I sat next to her, and then I realized I should go.

Camilla would be waiting for me. I didn’t want to leave, and I hoped Cassie wouldn’t be upset that I was just going to skip out.

“Look, I—”

“You’ve got to go. I know. You’ve got a kid.” She patted my arm. “I get it. Don’t worry about it.”

More words wanted to come out, but I didn’t know what to say. Honestly, I’d never been so shocked by an experience with another human being that it literally wiped the words from my brain.

“Thanks.” I slid out of bed and slowly got dressed.

She watched me, and when I was ready, I leaned down to kiss her. “I’ll see you later,” I was able to muster, but I knew it wasn’t quite enough.

“See you.” She stayed in bed while I left, and then I was out the door, calling a cab, thinking about my life choices.

When I got home, Andrea waved to me when she stood up.
