“So hot,” I say. “Did you like being restrained?”
“Yeah, I wanted to touch you so bad. It was driving me crazy that I couldn’t.”
I chuckle as she runs her fingertips down my spine and clutches my ass.
“This is the best sex I’ve ever had,” she says. “Seriously, Gray. You’re a man who knows what he’s doing.”
“Phew for that,” I say. “This entire night has been amazing and sexy as sin. I was worried I might be a little rusty.”
“Nope. Especially the love bite you just gave me,” she giggles. “How am I going to explain that in the office?”
“You work in an office?” I ask, nudging her with my hips, knowing I need to pull out and discard the rubber. But I want to prolong being inside her for as long as I can.
“Oops, I’ve said too much.”
I laugh now as I ease my way out, kissing her on the nose as I do. I flop onto my back and drag an arm over my face. “I think we both said too much tonight.”
“I loved how open and honest we could be. I’ll never forget it.”
“Well, you don’t have to. We can figure the rest out in the morning," I say. Already it’s flashing through my mind that this is supposed to be a one-night thing. I’m not supposed to be saying anything about doing it again, but I can’t stop myself. “I want to see you again, Hart.”
“I’d love to see you again, too.”
I kiss the side of her head as I roll the rubber off and hoist myself out of bed to discard it and clean myself up.
A few seconds later, I slide into bed and pull the duvet over us both. I pull her back to my front once more. “Ignore him if he sticks into you again,” I chuckle. “You’re gonna kill me if we do it any more before morning.”
She laughs softly and snuggles her ass into my groin, as my cock decides to rest against her cheeks as we sleep.
“Good night, Hart,” I say with a yawn. I know I’m going to suffer for this indulgent all night sex binge in the morning, but I don’t care.
“Good night, Gray.”
And those are the last words I hear until I fall into a restful, silent sleep.
I wake with a start. Something chiming in the distance telling me I should be awake. I bolt upright and glance over at my cell that I don’t even remember plugging in to charge before taking Hartley every which way last night. I slide the snooze button swiftly and yawn into the muted morning air. Thank God for blockout, that’s all I can say.
The alarm is telling me it’s six a.m.
I fold back down into the soft pillows and reach to pull Hartley to my hips. I feel another round coming on before we both hopefully jump into the shower and…
I feel nothing. Only empty space. I feel again as I lift my head like she’s just going to appear from nowhere, like she’s a magician’s assistant or something.
My heart races as I turn to look toward the ensuite. It’s wide open so she can’t be in there.
Oh, fuck no.
“Hartley,” I call out groggily. Hoping she’s out in the kitchen making coffee or something. But there’s nothing. No lights on. No noise coming from anywhere.
I pull the covers back and look around on the floor, searching for any trace of her clothes or something. Running a hand over my face and through my hair, trying to adjust to the morning and the brief hours of sleep I had, I try to ignore the bad feeling inside.
I nudge back the ensuite door to double check if she's inside, even though I don’t hear the shower running.
Everything is how we left it. The rubber packets I discarded are still on the nightstand next to the bed. The used ones are in the trash. But the clothes she brought in from last night are gone.
As I walk out into the main living area, I try to avoid the huge stream of light coming in with a hand over my eyes as I walk out to the jacuzzi buck naked, seeing if she may be out here, hopefully drinking coffee. Nothing. Her heels are gone. Her pearls.
My heart slams in my chest at the realization. I stupidly even look around for a note where the stationary sideboard is. On the kitchen counter. The bedside tables. Everywhere.
