It didn’t take long for him to find his way inside her and with his strong body supporting her, Caroline felt heaven as he moved inside her. This was so much more than a physical act, and she suspected, based on Josh’s reactions, that he knew it too.
“It’s too much, Caroline. I want you too much.”
“It’s not too much.” He kept driving into her and at the same time she kissed his face, reassuring him, loving him, even though she couldn’t tell him.
“I want you all the time. I think about you all the time.”
“Oh, Josh.” Caroline felt the ache at her center spread everywhere. The threatened burst wouldn’t be just physical; it would be emotional, too. Her heart was too full and she didn’t know how to process all she felt for him.
“I don’t want to hurt you.”
“You won’t.” She knew he would. She knew he would leave, and Caroline would never recover from losing him. Ever.
She held on tighter as her body released. “Oh, oh...” she whispered against his ear, wondering when the waves of sensations would stop. Wishing they wouldn’t.
“That’s my girl,” he said into her hair as he surged into her, picking up his pace and forcing her into a frenzy once again. Josh moved with all the power and grace she’d come to know, but with more desperation, more at stake.
When he came, the burst of warmth that filled her was beyond any intimacy they’d shared. Maybe it was because they were both more involved, more invested, but it made her feel closer to him and she sensed he felt the same. There was something different about this time. She understood why they had to be safe, but as she did one other time, Caroline thought about a child. About having a baby. About having Josh’s baby.
“Pick up your skirt and hold it. It’s going to be a little messy.”
“Okay.” She did what he asked and let him lower her to the floor, tottering on her high heels as she continued to hold her skirt and watch Josh grab for the closest box of tissues.
They were both kind of a mess. He looked at her and drew a breath.
“What?” He was staring at her and she couldn’t figure out what the look on his face was all about.
“You have no idea how hot you look with your skirt hiked up, your high heels, the thigh-high stockings and no underwear. I’d make love to you again if I didn’t feel so bad about the first time.”
“Why do you feel bad?”
He took her by the hand and led her to the bathroom off his office and they both cleaned up. He didn’t say anything and Caroline wished he would just answer her question.
He zipped his trousers and stuffed his hands into the pockets. “I was too rough with you.”
“No, you weren’t. Don’t be ridiculous!”
“Caroline, I took you against the door of my office. I shouldn’t have done that. You deserve better.”
Caroline finished pulling herself together and went to him. Going up on her toes, she brushed a kiss against his lips. “I loved it. It was reckless and crazy and I love that I can get you that way. We’ve been through this.”
“You do. No doubt about it. Still...”
“Stop apologizing. If something isn’t okay, I’ll tell you, but with you...” She ran a hand over his cheek. “With you, I want everything.”
Both of them froze for a moment, realizing how Caroline’s words came out, realizing that she’d pretty much admitted her feelings for him.What had she done?
Josh, to his credit, didn’t dismiss what she said. “I should take more care with you. I just should.”
There was no arguing with him and there were so many other things between them that this wasn’t worth even the tiniest disagreement.
“I’ve been such an idiot,” she said.
“Why?” He stepped to her and took her hands in his.
“Forever listening to my sister. For thinking you were anyone but who you are.”
Caroline knew she was lost when Josh kissed her lips lightly. “If I am anything more than my reputation it’s because you bring out the best in me. It’s all you.”
