I smiled and traced his lips with my fingers. They were so soft and plump. “Just like you, Colt. You make my heart act in ways I never expected.”
He laughed and left another kiss on my lips, pulling out of me. My pussy protested, wanting more of him despite everything that had just transpired in here. I couldn’t believe we actually did it here!
“What if somebody heard us?” I asked, suddenly worried that anyone could be onto us.
He got to his feet and helped me get up. He shrugged his shoulders. “Who cares? You know, I would do it again, but I think you should get back to studying now.”
He winked at me and left me gaping after him, crazy for him more than ever.
CHAPTER 12
Natalie
The rich aroma of coffee woke me the following morning. I lied in bed, feeling more relaxed and refreshed than I had in a long time. Finally, I had gotten a decent night’s sleep.
I rolled over. The other side of the bed was cold, letting me know that Colt must have gotten up quite some time ago. We had fallen asleep holding each other, so I wondered how he had managed to get out of bed without me noticing. I supposed it didn’t matter though.
I smiled to myself, thinking about the incredible night we had shared.
We had very nearly gotten caught in the library, an unsuspecting visitor coming dangerously close to the room we’d been occupying. Giggling uncontrollably like a couple of teenagers sneaking around behind our parents’ backs, we quickly dressed and left out of the library, heading back to the safehouse to pick up from where we left off. Much like our experience back in Turkey, we had hardly been able to make it through the door before we were ripping each other’s clothes off again.
We spent the rest of the day, blissfully giving in to the urges we’d been holding back for entirely too long.
Then we ordered takeout for dinner, cuddled and watched a movie, and went to bed, resuming another round of love-making before collapsing in each other’s arms.
In those moments, I felt happiness unlike anything I had ever felt in such a long time.
Unlike anything I’d felt since my college years with Joey.
It was obvious that what I felt for Colt ran deeper than what I’d felt for Joey though. I halfway thought I was being ridiculous for falling for a handsome face so quickly, but there simply was no denying how I felt, just like Colt could no longer control what he felt.
“So what are we going to do now?” I had asked before we fell asleep.
“What do you mean?”
“We were supposed to be keeping things professional, but it doesn’t seem like that’s possible anymore.”
“The only thing that’s not possible is me staying away from you,” he had responded, running his fingers through a lock of my hair as we stared into each other’s eyes. “So whatever obstacles come our way, we’re just going to have to figure it out.”
A warm and tingly sensation went through me because finally, we were being honest with one another. It felt good to have that barrier officially broken.
Thinking about our previous night, I rolled out of bed, tossed on a nightgown, and ventured to the kitchen, where I came to an abrupt halt. My heart leapt into my throat, and I tried to jump out of view, thinking fast about what I could do to defend myself. But I hadn’t reacted quickly enough, and the intruder spotted me anyway.
“Good morning.”
“W-Who are you? How did you get in here?” I stammered, my heart pounding a mile a minute. “Where’s Colt? COLT! HELP!”
“Hey, hey, hey now,” the man said, holding his hands up in a non-threatening gesture. “Relax. I’m not going to hurt you. Colt’s not here. I’m filling in for him.”
I stared, speechless and unable to comprehend what I was hearing. The stranger in the kitchen was an older man. He had a head full of white hair, beady gray eyes, and a stocky but muscular frame. “What do you mean you’re filling in for him?” I asked.
“I mean exactly that. I’ve been put on duty as your personal guard. You’re Speaker Finley’s daughter, right?”
I nodded. “Why didn’t anyone tell me this before?”
“Beats me,” the man said. “I guess it was too last-minute. I was contacted first thing this morning and told to come out here immediately. You want some coffee? I picked up some donuts.”
I shook my head. “But where’s Colt?”
