“He’s not going to think something’s suspicious about you taking your arm off of me.” I was about to start panting for him. I needed him to put a distance between our bodies before I completely lost my mind and jumped on him right here in the hotel lobby.
But Jake didn’t let go of me until we were on the elevator and the doors were closed.
As we sailed up to the seventeenth floor, where our room was, he all but shoved me to the other side of the small space and turned his back on me. For a moment, I didn’t know what to make of it. Was he angry with me? It was such a dramatic reversal of how he had been treating me over dinner that I couldn’t even get it together to ask him what his problem was.
Then he turned back to me, his eyes full of fire.
“I don’t know if I can do this,” he said, his voice raspy.
“But—but we did great.” I was completely thrown. What had changed?
“I couldn’t keep my hands off of you for even one damn night.”
“W-we were pretending…”
“I wasn’t pretending. The moment I saw you in that dress, I fucking wanted you, Olivia.Christ. I always knew you were hot, but I never…“ He drew in a sharp breath. “I never reallylookedat you before. I’m not going to be able to pretend you’re mine every day and then go home each night knowing you’re not. I’m not going to be able to keep placing my hands on you in front of people knowing full well that it will never lead to any satisfaction.”
And, of course, the correct answer to what he was saying waswe don’t have to touch each other for this to work.
I knew what I should say.
I knew it was the right thing to say.
But my brain fuzzed out, and my body took over, and the next thing I knew, I was kissing him.
He gasped into my mouth. His hands slid down my body, gripped my ass, and lifted, and then my legs wrapped around him the same way they had been in my fantasies about this moment.
He washard. I could feel him pressing against me, seeking entrance, his dick unaware of the fact that we hadn’t made it to our room yet and were still fully clothed. His body attempting to fuck me while both of us knew it wouldn’t be possible at that moment was one of the hottest things I’d experienced in my life.
We broke apart as the elevator door opened, and it was a good thing, too—a group of people was waiting to board. I’m sure they could see what was going on with us by the expressions on our faces, but knowing was different from catching us in the act, at least. Jake grabbed my hand and tugged me down the hall.
As they rounded a corner, Jake stopped and pulled me towards him. His hand went to the small of my back, drawing me close. My heart raced as I looked up at him, catching my breath in my throat.
I fumbled in my purse for the hotel key we had been given, my hand shaking, until Jake took hold of it, and slowly guided it out, to retrieve the key himself.
As soon as we’d made it inside the door, Jake turned to me, his eyes burning with desire. “I couldn’t stop thinking this entire evening about how I was going to fuck you,” he said, his voice low and husky.
I didn’t need to hear anything more as I surrendered to his embrace, leading him toward the bed.
My eyes closed as Jake’s lips met mine, a soft and tender kiss that quickly grew more passionate. We broke apart, gasping for air, but Jake didn’t let me go. He pulled me in for another kiss, deeper this time, his tongue tracing my lips tenderly.
He picked me up and tossed me onto the bed, then crawled on top of me, one hand shoving my dress above my hips, the other hooking my panties down. I heard the zip of his pants, his body left me for a split second, and then he was back, the head of his cock pressing against me, and there was nothing left to stop us.
I could feel him throbbing against me. It was exquisite, but I needed so much more.
“Look at me,” Jake breathed.
I looked up into his bright blue eyes, hardly able to believe this wasJake. Jake, who I had always admired and despised in equal measure, was looking at me like I was the only thing he wanted in the universe.
“I’m gonna fuck you,” he said. “Tell me you want it. Tell me you need me inside you.”
“So bad,” I groaned. “You’re all I’ve been thinking about all night. Do it now. I can’t wait any longer.”
My hands found their way to Jake’s hair as we continued to kiss, the heat between us growing with each passing moment. We pulled back, foreheads touching, breathing heavily.
“Fuck…” He slid into me.
My eyes rolled back in my head. I’d never felt so full in all my life, and as he started to move, I wrapped my legs around him and dug my heels into his ass, pulling him in deeper.
