She kissed down my neck. “I have an IUD.”

"I don't know what that is, but I assume it prevents pregnancy."

Ignoring me, Ava shoved my jeans down quickly and wrapped her fingers around my cock. "Fuck.” I sucked in a breath. “Easy, Trouble," I hissed.

She shoved me onto the couch, slid out of her panties, and straddled me, the skirt she was wearing still on.

“I’ve been so horny lately,” she murmured. “I need you to handle it,” she demanded.

And who am I to deny her?

I gripped her hips and guided her down my shaft, biting back a groan as she sank slowly.

“Jesus Christ,” I muttered.

How is she tighter than I remember?

She rolled her hips, smiling, my brain short-circuiting.

Holy hell, I needed this.

I dragged my mouth over her perfect tits, then tangled my fist in her long dark waves, pulling her head back just enough to make her gasp.

“You feel so good,” she breathed.

She rode me hard, unapologetic, and I barely held on. When I pressed my fingers to her clit, she shattered, her pussy clenching tightly around me and dragging me over the edge with her.

We both came embarrassingly fast.

Afterward, she collapsed onto my chest, breathless.

“Well,” I said finally, “that escalated quickly.”

She laughed softly. “Sorry. It's the hormones.”

After we cleaned ourselves up, Ava grabbed the monitor off the table. She looked up at me. “Do you mind staying here while I take a shower in case Ellie wakes up?”

I smirked, wrapped my hand around Ava’s wrist, and pulled her into my chest. I leaned down close to her ear. “Or I could join you.”

She shivered slightly before forcing out a small laugh. She placed her hand against my chest and gently pushed me back. “As incredible as that orgasm just was, I think we should stop while we’re ahead.”

Ouch.

I nodded, forcing a smile, trying to act unfazed. Her tone was flat, her walls visibly erecting between us. I shoved my hands into my pockets. “You’re right.” I took the monitor from her and sank down onto the couch. “You go shower. Take your time.” I held the monitor up. “I’ve got her.”

Something unreadable crossed Ava’s face, but as quickly as it appeared, it was gone. “I—I’m sorry, Cohen. I shouldn’t have crossed the line. It was a mistake. My hormones are just wild right now, and I wasn’t thinking. It was a slip-up. I don’t want to make our situation any more complicated. I swear I won’t do that again. I…”

Her brows pinched together, blue eyes searching mine.

A mistake. Our situation.

Yeah, that sits real well.

If that was a mistake, I wanted to make a few more.

I held up my hand to stop her, my jaw clenched tight. “No apology needed. Seriously. It’s all good. Would it make you feel better if we just pretend this never happened?”

Even though it’ll likely play on repeat in my head for the foreseeable future.
