That was all the encouragement they needed to melt into each other. Her phone clattered to the floor, and she was completely entangled in him all over again.
chapter 36
Kissing Landon, touching him, smelling him—Katie’s senses drowned out everything else. Lori could have been standing two feet away tapping her foot and she wouldn’t have even noticed. Especially not when Landon kept saying the most perfect things in between his kisses.
"Ican’tstopthinkingaboutyou,Katie.Damn, you have no idea how much I missed this. How much I’ve been wanting you."
Oh, she actually had a really good idea because there was no possible way he’d missed her more than she’d missed him.
His hand slid up her thigh and under her dress and all the way up to toy with the waistband on her panties high up on her hip. "I’ve never wanted to be inside someone more in my life," he said, the words warm against her neck.
"Wecan’tdothis,Landon.Nothere."
He jumped on that. "Ok, not here, somewhere else then. My place, your place, a hotel, let’s go." But his feet remained in place and only his hand moved to slip inside the front of her panties, where he felt just how much her body liked that idea. "Damn, I love how wet you get for me, baby," he said, sliding his fingers up and down, up and down, up and down….
Katie gasped and latched on to his tuxedo jacket as he pushed two inside her, letting the heel of his palm press against her clit in a gentle rhythm that immediately took her right to the edge of complete and utter bliss.
"Mmmmm, yes, just like that, just keep rubbing against my hand, baby," he murmured, coaxing her with his fingers and the smooth vibration of his voice. "Come for me, sweetheart. I love to hear you come."
Katiemoaned as herheadfellbackagainstthewall, the resounding thunk much too loud for the impact she’d made. Her eyes shot open as the the stairwell door bounced off the wall. Two couples, tipsy and rowdy, pressed through the enclosed space and Katie burrowed her face into Landon’s tuxedo, waiting for the inevitable gasps.
But the voices and footsteps faded as quickly as they’d entered, silencing completely when another door banged behind them. They listened to the silence, chests rising and falling between them, then eased apart just as Katie’s phone started vibrating on the floor, the final knife in their illicit rendezvous. With a huff of frustration, she brushed Landon back and bent down to retrieve it.
"Shit!" she cursed as she read the message from Missy, pleading for help with Layla’s latest insane demand.
"What?Yourmom?"
"No, work," Katie snapped, mostly because the loss of him so close to her orgasm agitated her. "I’m still working here in case you forgot, and her mistress Layla Lamar beckons."
"FuckLayla,"Landonsaid.
"OhIthoughtthatwasyourjob."
Katie straightened her dress and did a quick scan of the floor for any of her other belongings, mostly so she didn’t have to meet his eye after throwing such a low blow.
"Don’tdothat,Katie."
"Dowhat? Whatexactlydoyouthinkisgoingto happen? A threesome with me and Layla Lamar? In case you forgot, you’re here on a date with someone else."
"Notbychoiceandyouknowthat."
"Not by choice? Ha! Did Lori force you at gunpoint? You can’t say no?"
Landon scrubbed a hand across his jaw. "Actually, if you want to know the truth, at the moment she asked me, I didn’t want to say no.I’vebeenwalkingaroundlikeazombiewithmyheartripped out of my chest and since the woman I’m in love with wants nothing todowithme,Ifigured,whatthehell,getakickoutofsittingnext to a celebrity at dinner. That’s all I agreed to. It’s not a date."
If Katie focused on the love part, it would only complicate everything in her head. So she put her attention on the other things he’d said.
"Not a date, huh? I guess Layla didn’t get that memo. Did you know she asked us to cancel her car service? She then made it very clear we are to have trouble finding another so she has to ride home with you. In fact, Missy and Ellis are looking for me as we speak to make that happen."
Landon held his hands up. "Hey, I didn’t tell her to do that. I didn’t give her any reason to think I’m even interested in her. I don’t care about Layla Lamar or anyone else. Don’t you get it? I wantyou."
"Yeah well, maybe you just want me because you like the chase."
Landon’s face turned to stone and he crossed his arms across his chest. "Is that what you think?"
"Hey I’m not saying you’re doing it on purpose. Maybe youjust don’t know because every girl you’ve ever looked at has fallen into your arms and out of her panties. Let’s face it, Landon, you either get off on the chase or the control. Or hell, it’s probably both."
"Control? What are you talking about? I don’t try to control you."
