He captured her lips with his again. She was intoxicating. Her taste, her scent. Everything about her had him craving her touch. The feel of her lips against his could relax him in an instant. She was his everything. His love.
His love.
Damn. He never stopped loving her, and he never would.
He brushed his cock at her entrance before slowly easing himself into her. Her breath caught, and he pulled his head back to watch her expression as he worked himself in. Her eyelids drooped, and she stretched her head back as if his length was straining her.
“You okay?”
She let out a low moan. “Perfect.”
They moved together, slowly at first, before they became more frantic. Being inside her was unlike anything he had ever felt with another woman. It felt right. And his body was chasing the high that being with her could only bring.
“Claire, baby, I need you to come.”
He reached between them and rolled his fingers over her clit, just how he knew she liked it.
A cry tore from her lips, and her body rolled in unison with him, until her eyes were rolling back and a flush worked its way up her chest and into her cheeks.
Her body clenched his, pulling his pleasure from him. He groaned and dropped his face into her chest with his last thrust as he emptied inside her. With the last of his energy, he moved off her and dropped onto the bed beside her.
They lay there for several minutes, neither of them moving.
“Jake,” Claire said.
He lifted his head to look at her, their hands intertwined.
“Yes?”
Claire tipped her chin to a spot across the room. “What’s that?”
He looked and his eyebrows shot up. “No way.”
“Is that what I think it is?”
“I think so.”
A door on the opposite wall had them both staring in silence for a long beat.
“Did Celine orchestrate us having an adjoining room?” Jake finally said out loud.
“That woman deserves a raise.”
They laughed.
“Damn. I wish I had noticed that earlier. We need to get you back to your room without anyone seeing, so we can unlock it.”

After sneaking back into her own room with no one but the security team noticing, Claire immediately unlocked the adjoining door. They both propped their doors open and smiled at each other over the threshold.
“I’m going to get the best sleep tonight,” she said.
He stepped closer to her and pressed a kiss to her lips. “Me too.”
Once Jake left for his interviews with the rest of the guys, Claire leaned back on her bed and clicked on the television, scrolling through the channels until she landed on a romantic comedy.
A knock on her door had her head swinging that way. She hadn’t been expecting anyone, and without the guys on the floor, there wouldn’t be as much security. She moved toward the door slowly, her heart thundering in her chest.
