"Not fair," Leo said.

“What?”

“This,” he said and ran his fingers along the satin of my panties.Electric shocks flew through me and the smoldering inside me burst into flames.I took a sharp breath in as he hooked his fingers under the elastic and slid my panties over my hips.

“There,” he said and smiled.“Now, it’s fair.”He took a step back from me and let his eyes travel down.I knew how my body looked.It was tight, toned from swimming and running.I never had the sexy curves and round breasts that Nicole did, but mine was an athletic body and by the look in Leo’s eyes, he was satisfied with what he saw.

More than satisfied.

I waited until he was done with his appraisal, using the time to examine him as well.His olive-toned skin was smooth, with just enough chest hair.He was lean and hard, but not so much so that he looked like he spent hours in the gym.I let my eyes trail down his chest to his hips and the incredible need waiting for me.

“Come here,” he said.His voice was gruff.He reached for me and together we took two steps backwards until the bed was behind me.With a gentle push from Leo, I was on the bed, and he lowered himself on top of me.I closed my eyes as he covered my body in kisses, working his way down.

I heard a low groan.Did it come from me?He was driving me crazy with his tongue.His exquisite torment.

When the fire within me was too much to bear, I reached for him and guided his mouth to mine again.He broke away and asked me a question with his eyes.

“Yes,” I whispered.

He didn't break eye contact as he entered me, filling me.We fit together.I felt like I knew every move he would take, but at the same time, everything was new, different.

Better.

I didn’t think of all my troubles, or what was waiting for me.I didn't think about how un-Lexi like I was behaving or anything else.Instead, as my body rocked with his, the only thoughts I had were reserved for the incredible man who was staring into my eyes as our bodies moved together and how natural it felt to be with him.The last thought I had before I gave myself over to ecstasy was how I could get used to feeling this way.

Leo

Not knowing what Lexi would like for breakfast, or even if she ate breakfast, I had room service bring up a selection of pastries, fruits, and cereals.Lexi didn't seem like she'd be the type of woman to eat a large meal in the morning, but then again, I didn't really know.

There was a lot I still didn’t know.

I looked behind me at Lexi still sleeping and curled up on her side, her bare back to me, her golden hair falling over her body like a curtain.The urge to slide her hair over and kiss her shoulders was strong but I didn’t want to wake her.Yet.

Last night had been amazing, which sounded ridiculously cliché but there really was no other word for it.From the moment I'd seen Lexi sitting at the bar only a few nights ago, I knew she was someone special.I knew I had to meet her.

Talking with her, learning about her, hell, just being with her last night felt like I’d been with her forever.I didn't have a lot of experience with serious relationships, but when it came to Lexi, I wanted to change all of that.The distance between us didn't matter; I'd worry about it later.

Lexi stirred and a small groan came out of her as she stretched in her sleep.My thoughts flashed right back to the night before when it had been me making her groan.She was so intense, so...well, hot.

I poured a cup of coffee from the urn on the cart and put it on the bedside table before slipping back into the bed next to her.

“Good morning, beautiful,” I said, and ran my hand across her smooth skin.She shivered a little before waking further.She rolled over, pulling the sheet with her.I wanted to pull it down again.

“I didn't think you'd still be here,” she said.Her voice was thick with sleep but she still sounded happy.

“Are you kidding?”I reached around and grabbed the cup of coffee.“I'm not sure how you take it,” I said, offering her the cup.“Or even if you drink it.But there's tea too, if you prefer.Or I can get juice.We have orange, apple, and—”

“Stop,” Lexi said, trying to swallow her laughter.“Coffee is perfect."

While she adjusted herself in the bed, I prepared the cart and rolled it closer.I wanted to give her time to wake up and digest what had happened between us.

I’m not an idiot, and I didn't need her to tell me that she'd never slept with a man she'd just met before.The last thing I wanted was for her to have any bad feelings, or worse, regret what we'd done.

“I didn't know what you'd like,” I said, taking a tray of food to the bed.“But I had a feeling you'd be hungry.We really...”

She blushed that sexy shade of red that I was getting used to.

“Leo, I—”
