“Yes.”

That simple word held a world of meaning. The devil in him jumped for joy and prodded him to leap. She leaned into him and pressed her lips to his. Every thought in his mind shut off, except the fantasies he’d dreamed of night after night alone in his bed. He kissed her back, but didn’t touch her. He kept his hands on his thighs until she kissed her way along his jaw to his ear and whispered, “Take me to bed.”

A military man, used to carrying out orders, he had no trouble following hers. He wanted her too much to deprive himself and her of what they wanted most, to be together, despite his best-­laid plans.

Summer let out a yelp when Caleb wrapped his big hands around her waist and hoisted her into his lap. She straddled his thighs, and his mouth took possession of hers and he devoured it, sliding his hands up her sides, his thumbs caressing the sides of her breasts in soft half circles.

“Last chance, sweetheart, because in a minute it will be too late.”

“It’s already too late,” she answered, tilting her head back while he kissed a blazing trail down her neck to her chest. His big hands covered her heavy breasts and squeezed. It didn’t ease her need, but made her want more.

Caleb wrapped his arms around her back, slid his hands down to cover her ass, and stood up with her legs wrapped around his waist. She laughed and leaned back and looked at him.

“I love it when you laugh,” he said.

She traced his face with her fingertips. “I love how you make me feel.”

“I love you.” The words came out gruff and filled with emotion. They sank into her heart and filled it.

“Show me.”

His lips found hers even as he moved to the stairs and started up them. His hands held her bottom firm against him. She squeezed her legs around his waist to keep him close.

“You are so strong,” she said against his lips.

He used all that strength to wrap her in a hug that made her feel safe and surrounded by his love.

He stood beside her bed in the loft. She let her legs drop down his sides, so she stood on her own. He held her hips loosely in his hands and stared down at her.

“I want you so bad. I’ll try to be gentle.”

“Don’t be,” she said, practically daring him with a smile.

“Ah, sweetheart, how did this happen?”

“Some things are meant to be.”

“Yeah, like this.”

She expected speed and urgency. Instead, he took his time and planted a soft kiss on her lips. Their gazes locked, he reached for the hem of her shirt and pulled it over her head as she raised her arms to help him. When her hands came down, she reached for his t-­shirt and stripped him of it. His gaze dipped and he stared at her breasts. She didn’t feel self-­conscious, but beautiful under his appreciative stare. It didn’t take long for him to reach for the button and zipper on her pants. She wiggled her hips to help him slide them down her legs, taking them and her shoes off at the same time.

Once he had her nearly naked in front of him, he lost the battle to take his time. She felt his urgency in the way he jammed both thumbs into the sides of her panties and pulled them down her thighs. Unable to stand, she fell back onto the bed, giving him the perfect opportunity to drag the swatch of lace right off her feet.

He came to her then, leaning over her, crowding her until she had to fall onto her back. He smiled like the big bad wolf ready to eat her up. He practically did. His head dipped and his breath caressed the inside of her thigh a second before his lips touched her skin and his tongue flicked out to taste. She melted into the mattress, closed her eyes, and savored the feel of his mouth and those big hands caressing every inch of her body.

Caleb trailed kisses up her thigh and over her hip. He wanted to plant his face between her legs and feast, but he had far more ground to cover before he indulged his baser needs. He loved her flat stomach and licked a circle around her belly button and up the center of her to the annoying barrier that hid the bounty of her breasts. She moaned when he slipped his hand around her back, massaging and caressing as he went to find the catch on her bra and release it, so he could finally see her completely naked below him. He pulled the offending barrier free and let it sail across the room. Leaning over her on his hands, his feet still planted on the floor, her legs dangling over the edge of the bed, he scanned her body from her gorgeous face to her creamy thighs.

“You are so beautiful.”

“You’re overdressed.”

She reached for his button and fly, releasing them and his hard cock. Her fingers locked around him, pumping up and down, stoking the fire burning inside of him. He wanted to slide between her legs and bury himself deep in her heat, but not yet. He played the explorer, mapping her body with his hands and mouth.

Her hands never stopped touching him, roaming over his arms and chest and around his back. She came up off the bed, and he stood before her as she slid his jeans and boxer briefs down his legs. Hindered by his boots, he reached down and pried them off. Not easy, off kilter, tied up in his jeans. Her hands raked down his back, sending a shiver of heat and need through his system. Free at last, she pulled him down on top of her, and for the first time, he let his body slide over hers. She gasped as his skin touched hers. He sank into her, his mouth finding hers in a searing kiss. Cradled between her thighs, he rocked forward and nudged her entrance with the head of his cock, but pulled back even as she tilted her hips to take him deep.

Summer let out a frustrated grunt, but it died on the exhale she let loose when his tongue licked down her throat, sending a shiver over her skin. He planted openmouthed kisses down her chest to the valley between her breasts before one hand clasped her breast and he took the hard tip into his mouth and suckled, his tongue sweeping out to taste and drive her wild.

“You taste as good as you smell. Raspberries in spring.”
