Something that moved slow and easy. Something that breathed. It wasn’t her blanket.
Memories of the night rushed through her then, flushing her face as she remembered how tirelessly Zeke had taken her, and how she had met each thrust. At times she had been forced to bite her tongue to hold back the pleas for something more. Something . . .
just more.
It wasn’t that she didn’t orgasm. Oh boy, had she orgasmed. Satisfaction had definitely not been a problem. But there was an underlying restlessness she still hadn’t managed to figure out.
“Wake up, sleepyhead. ” Zeke’s voice was scratchy, still a little drowsy.
“Not time yet. ” She almost smiled. “I don’t go to work until tonight. ”
He grunted at that. “Yeah, Janey’s still glaring at me and Alex is laughing his ass off because he caught me waiting on you the other night. I should spank you for that, Rogue. ”
Her buttocks clenched involuntarily at the threat. Okay, so she had well fantasized about Zeke spanking her more than once. One of those erotic little spankings she had read about a time or two. She had a lot of fantasies where Zeke was concerned.
“Hey, you were the one waiting. ” She rolled to her back and stared up at him, her heart racing as he propped his head on his hand and remained on his side, watching her.
“You could have driven me home if you had shown any interest in doing so. ”
A dark brown brow arched. “I’ve been showing decided interest of late,” he pointed out. “Even my son managed to notice my interest. ”
Heat built in her face at the reminder of exactly how interested Shane knew his father was now. She rolled back to her stomach and buried her face in her pillow at the reminder.
“Go to work,” she mumbled.
He chuckled, his hand settling on her back beneath the sheet, his fingers rubbing at her hip.
“Shower with me. ” She felt his lips at her ear, a tender kiss that reminded her of the aches she could feel in the tender parts of her body.
The thought of showering with him definitely aroused her interest though. As well as other things. She felt herself growing damp, felt her clit awakening and tingling at the thought.
“Shower only. ” He nipped at her ear before she could turn to face him. “Other activities can wait until tonight. ”
She stared back at him, seeing the amused curl of his lips, the warmth in his eyes. He was sexy like this, playful and seductive. His short hair wasn’t long enough to really get mussed, but it wasn’t as perfectly in place as it was when he’d arrived at her office the night before.
“Maybe I don’t want to wait until tonight. ” She let her hand settle on his chest before allowing it to slide down, caressing along his abdomen and moving lower.
“Minx. ” He caught her hand. “We’ll play later. This morning, we have to talk. ”
“About what?” She was more interested in exploring his manly body now that she had it in her bed.
“Your bartender. ”
Rogue stilled. The steely quality of his voice assured her that play-time wasn’t going to happen right now. Evidently Zeke was no more pleased with Jonesy this morning than he had been the night before.
“I’ll handle Jonesy. ” She shrugged. “I’ve been dealing with him for several years now, Zeke. I don’t need your help. ”
“I didn’t ask you if you needed my help. ” His voice hardened.
“I said we’re going to discuss this. The discussion will involve how quickly you’ll be firing him. ”
Rogue flipped the sheet off her and rolled to the edge of the bed before standing, fully nude, and stalking to the chair across the room that held her robe.
“Get your shower; I’ll fix your coffee,” she told him, ignoring the anger that wanted to flash hot and wild inside her.
“Coffee won’t settle this, Rogue,” he warned her. “Your bartender wasn’t just disrespectful last night, he was threatening. ”
“And you know nothing about him. ” She turned as she belted her robe snugly. “I’m not firing Jonesy, and I’ll warn you right up front, Zeke, I don’t take orders worth shit, so you may as well stop right now. ”
