“Yeah, I mean, you don’t have to go on this trip,” she said.
“What if I stole you away?” He leaned in and let his gaze dip to her lips. “What if we spend a day or two with them, then I have you all to myself?”
Her shy smile widened and her eyes seemed to sparkle with a new light. “I wouldn’t mind that at all.”
Harper reached out and cupped her cheek. She pressed into the touch, so open and trusting. It wasn’t fair that they’d met on assignment. He knew this was doomed to end badly, but that didn’t stop him from wanting to wrap himself up in her. She calmed an inner restlessness he’d never been able to shake. She made him feel at peace with himself by doing nothing more than existing.
He leaned in and kissed her glossy lips, tasting whatever product she’d put on. Her free hand curled over his shoulder, but instead of pulling him closer she pushed up and straddled his lap. She wasn’t that shy, blushing girl with him anymore and he liked this side of her. He wanted her to come to him with everything even if that was selfish. For right now, they could have the fantasy.
Robin’s tongue swiped his lips. He groaned into the kiss and opened for her light, teasing caresses.
Harper pushed away the thoughts and considerations of reality. Right now he wanted to be in the moment with her. He was going to be selfish and damn the consequences.
There was just one problem.
The microphones.
But that was an easy solution.
Harper wrapped his arms around Robin, gathering her close to him, then stood. He felt her sharp intake of breath and her lips tightened around him, but she didn’t protest. Her mouth was too busy for that.
He liked her clinging to him, holding on with all she had. Did she feel the same way? Did she have a sense of belonging like he did? Did this feel right to her?
Harper kicked the door shut. Robin flinched at the bang and tore her lips from his, blinking over his shoulder.
“Is that necessary?” she asked.
Since he couldn’t tell her his living room was bugged, he went with the next best answer between kisses down her neck. “Neighbor complains about every little noise.”
“O-oh,” she stammered.
He grinned at her. “Don’t let that stop you from calling my name.”
She tipped her chin down, no doubt embarrassed and overthinking every previous moment.
Harper planted a knee on the bed then let gravity pull them forward. He braced most of his weight on his knees and forearms, but nothing beat the way Robin’s body cradled his. He knew why she’d come here today. It wasn’t like she’d been subtle. In fact, he was grateful. Right now he needed her.
This was supposed to be a job, but it had become so much more for him.
Harper took her mouth, thrusting his tongue past her lips. Her nails dug into his shoulders and her legs wrapped around him. He reached down to slid his hand up her bare leg.
“Did you wear this for me?” he asked against her skin.
Robin panted and for a moment he thought she might be coy. Instead, she looked deep into his eyes and said, “Yes.”
He trailed his fingers along the edge of her panties. “Mm, I like that.”
Robin tunneled her fingers through his hair. Her grasp tightened, and she pulled his mouth back to hers.
Yes.
He pushed past the edge of her panties to stroke his fingers over her folds. He was pleased to find her wet already. Her hips shifted, inviting a more intimate touch. Instead, he pulled away, rising over her.
Robin blinked up at him with eyes gone glassy from lust.
“I want you naked,” he said.
Her lips spread into a delighted smile.
