Oh, baby doll, I watched the two of you dancing. Believe me, I can tell when a woman is in love.
She should have walked out the bathroom the instant Victoria had stepped inside. Victoria was dead wrong about her. She wasn’t in love with Luke. Good thing, too. Because the last thing Sarah wanted was to end up like Victoria. Bitter and half-drunk at her own wedding to another man.
Nope. That was never going to happen.
Her relationship with Luke was based on hot sex and friendship. Nothing more.
Luke steered the car onto the road. Sarah toed off her heels and began pulling the bobby pins out of her hair. When she reached under her dress and slid off her thong, Luke did a double take.
“What are you doing?” He asked, trying to keep his eyes on the traffic ahead.
“Saving us time.”
He slammed his foot on the accelerator, taking them back to the condo in a lot less time than it had taken to drive to the hotel. He parked the car in the space next to his truck, although it was the worst parking job in history, he was so off the yellow lines. Luckily, the parking garage was empty. By the time they got off the elevator and into the front door of the condo, she had her dress half off. He ripped off his tux jacket as she went for his pants.
When they were both good and naked, he picked her up and tossed her none too gently onto his bed. “If I’d known weddings made you this horny, we would have crashed one a long time ago.”
She pulled him down on top of her, desperate to feel his skin against hers. “Shut up and get busy.”
Luke chuckled and reached inside the drawer to the bedside table. “Sarah, baby, slow down. We’ve got plenty of time.”
“No, no we don’t.” She helped him with the condom then wrapped her legs around his waist and drew him in. He entered slowly, almost hesitantly, but he didn’t have to. Couldn’t he feel how wet she was?
“Luke, stop playing around. I need you. Now.”
He looked down at her and frowned. For one crazy second, she thought he was going to withdraw, but he must have seen something in her face that made him change his mind, because then he began pounding her into the mattress. Hard, long, fast strokes that made her want to scream, Yes, just like that! But she couldn’t form words at the moment. All she could do was moan and thrash and keep up with the furious pace she’d practically commanded of him.
Afterward, they lay side-by-side, trying to catch their breath. Neither of them said anything for a long time. She went to get up to go to the bathro
om but he pulled her back in bed. “What’s wrong?” he asked quietly.
“Nothing.”
He began massaging her scalp with his big hand and something about the tender way his fingers stroked through her hair made her want to cry. “Is it the wedding? I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have brought you. Shit, I shouldn’t have gone period.”
She moistened her lips. “No, it’s not the wedding. I just…” She shrugged. “It’s nothing, really. I guess I just realized that we don’t have a lot of time left.”
“What do you mean?”
“I mean, this time next week I’ll be in Cocoa Beach and you’ll probably be on your way to Alaska.”
“The contract might not go through,” he said.
“True. But then it’ll be another contract. Right?”
He hesitated briefly. “Right.”
“So, I just want to get in as much really good sex as I can,” she said, trying to keep it light.
He seemed to consider this a moment. “How long will you and your mom be on the cruise?”
“Just three days. We leave Friday and come back on Labor Day.”
“What about your dad?”
“What about my dad?” she repeated.
“It’s just, you never talk about him. When’s the last time you saw him?”
