“You came back?” His voice was quiet, and the question was more of a statement. Then the corner of his lips upturned in a small, suppressed smile.
“My return flight was sitting on the runway when your text came through.” I took another sip of his beer. It was semi-warm, but it gave my hands something to do. I was a bundle of nervous energy, even though I knew Adam wanted me here. Sex I could do. Romance and feelings were all new to me.
“Why? I thought you had to get back. I thought you needed to start your next assignment,” he said. The confusion that pulled at his brows was adorable. He couldn’t see his own worth, just like I couldn’t see mine.
“That was a lie. An excuse I crafted because I had a hard time with the truth.”
“Why would you do that? What made you change your mind?” He fired out the questions without pausing to take a breath. His back was ramrod straight, and his fingers twitched nervously on his leg. It was as if he wanted to reach out and touch me but fought the urge.
“I’m not good with feelings. I bury them as deep as I can and try to forget about them. It’s just how I’ve operated since I was assaulted. Anger and revenge were the only feelings that got me anywhere. I don’t know how to handle anything else. The further I flew away from you, the more anxious I felt.” I paused to let the fact sink in. “I also had a very nosey seatmate. She made me realize I made a mistake. After we talked it through, I decided that for once I’m going to do something for myself. I’m going to take a shot at something that could make me very happy…you.” My heart hammered in my chest, but the weight lifted off my shoulders with my admission.
“What about your job?” His fingers twitched even more on his lap.
“I’m not sure. I can transfer field offices if I need to, as long as you can still handle my undercover work. I’ll talk to Bob and see what my options are with the bureau or another agency. Whatever I decide, it’s a conversation for another day. Today we focus on us.”
“I’m kind of in shock,” Adam admitted with a giddy chuckle.
“I can tell,” I said with a smirk and nervous laugh.
“What’s so funny?” he asked.
“I’ve never seen you so speechless.”
“Then feel free to join me,” he said as leaned toward me. He wrapped his hand around the back of my head and brought my face to his. His lips were soft but demanding. They expressed what he was unable to with words.I’m glad you came back. I’m glad you’re here.
I was glad I came back too.
His fingers tangled in my hair, and his pinky brushed the back of my neck. He struggled to restrain himself. I knew his reaction was only a very small portion of what he wanted from me. I felt the same way. I wanted to lose myself in him. I wanted to scream his name as he brought me to new heights. This time there would be no games, no lying to myself about what it was. No ulterior motives. It would be me and the first man I’d ever loved, making love. It would be rough—just like we were. I couldn’t wait another minute.
“Let’s go upstairs,” I spoke into his lips.
“God yes.” His throaty growl made me want to jump him here, witnesses be damned.
We stood up, and Adam grabbed my bag. As we walked back into the lobby, I saw our friends sitting in the dining area. They were smiling as they picked at the food on their plates. Yates said something, and everyone laughed. Then they spotted us. One by one, their faces turned in our direction. I considered stopping by their table to say something, but Adam grabbed my hand and dragged me straight to the elevator.
When the door closed behind us, his lips found mine again. He shoved me against the back of the car. We were front to front, and I felt his erection against my pelvis. No wonder he didn’t want to stop and say hi to his friends; he had been sporting that monster and didn’t want to show it off.
When the elevator doors opened again, we stumbled to Adam’s room with our lips still locked. His hands were on my ass, and my hands held his head as he walked me backward. My back smashed against his door as he fumbled with the door key blindly. The lock beeped, and the door gave way as Adam pushed through. He renewed his firm grip on my ass, and he dropped my bag in the doorway of the room. The door barely had enough room to close.
He picked me up by my ass, and I wrapped my legs around his waist. My arms wrapped around his neck. I broke our kiss for air—his lips found my neck, and his teeth grazed the skin there. His lips trailed down to my good shoulder, and his tongue did a dance on the exposed skin.
He dropped me on the bed and quickly but carefully peeled me out of my shirt and then my pants. He gazed at my almost naked body like I was a work of art. I was still in my bralette and thong, but I felt naked when his eyes roamed over me.
“I want you,” Adam whispered.
“You have me.”
“No, I mean I want you. I want more than just your body or the physical pleasure you bring me. I want all of you, even the parts that struggle with real intimacy. I want that, and I don’t care how long I have to wait. I want that from you and only you,” he said in a voice so low I barely heard it. I felt the words more than I heard them.
He wanted me, even the broken parts that I wanted to fix for him.
“I want you too, even the parts that drive me half insane. I want you, and we will figure out the rest. For now, just show me how much you want me,” I said while I tried to catch my breath.
He slid his arms under my back, unhooking my bralette in one swift move, sliding the thong off right after. He pulled down his pants and boxers, and then there was nothing between us. We were skin on skin, and I relished the feeling. This was mine, he was mine.
I squirmed in pleasure as his fingers played with my clit, touching me in all the right ways. He had me climbing a wave of pleasure, and I couldn’t wait to find the peak. He brought his mouth down to that sensitive area, and I was unable to control the loud cries. He chuckled but never stopped his new task—to make me come in record time. His tongue moved like it had done this a million times before. He knew exactly where to stroke to push me past my limits. I laced my fingers in his short hair and gripped hard. He had two fingers deep inside me, and I wasn’t sure how much longer I could last. With his other hand he grabbed my ass, hard. Then his hand left my ass and trailed up my stomach and then to my breasts where he pinched the nipples. I squirmed in his hold, unable to keep myself from falling over the edge.
“Don’t come yet,” Adam ordered.
