“Jace!” Her body tensed, and he watched her face contort with bliss as another orgasm stole over her.
He pumped inside her two more times, then a third and he was following her. Ecstasy swallowed him up in a hot wave. Spurts of cum showered her insides, and she contracted around him over and over again.
His mind blanked with pleasure and he buried his face against her throat with a strangled groan. Her name passed his lips on a whisper.
She cupped his jaw, fingers working over his beard. When he raised his head and looked at her, love was pouring from her stunning, expressive brown eyes.
“Oh, honey.”
“Don’t go, Jace. Stay here. There’s tons of work for bodyguards. Think of all the celebrities who come to the city.”
Hell. He’d wondered if it might come to this. To stay together, one of them had to make a hard decision.
Slowly, he pulled out of her body and rolled to the side. When he drew her into his side and brushed his lips over her temple, she shivered.
“You won’t stay, will you?”
“I can’t. I just got my life back on track after our security company went down.”
There was still the very large matter that not one man called himself The Broker but two. Possibly more. Which meant they hadn’t cut off the head of the snake yet. The only way to do that was to keep flipping over rocks until they found the person responsible.
Bronte fell still. After several heartbeats, she whispered, “I don’t want this to be the end. I feel like I finally found someone I want to be with and it’s not fair you’re about to be ripped away from me.” Her voice wavered.
Smoothing his hand over her spine, he struggled with his own emotion. “I don’t want to leave you either.”
Since no answers hovered in the sky, waiting for them to snag down like stars from the heavens, they remained silent.
“There are ways to stay in touch,” she said at last, though her tone lacked much conviction.
He rolled on top of her. She let out a gasp of surprise, which he cut off with a kiss. An urgency rose inside him. If he kissed her enough, made her cry out his name several more times, the universe had to keep them together.
Chest heaving, she tore from his kiss. “I need you again, Jace.”
Gripping her by the hips, he flipped her on top of him. “I never told you, but as soon as I get back to Montana, I plan on buying a horse. If you’re going to come visit me, you’re going to need some practice riding.”
A grin flitted over her face as she sank down over his stiff cock, taking him to the base. They shared a low moan, more in sync than ever before.
He only hoped it wasn’t the last moment they’d share.

Bronte pushed through the glass door with the Artemis name on it. A sigh was on her lips, but it turned to a squawk when Kimmy flew at her.
Her assistant let out a small scream and flung her arms around Bronte. “Oh my god! I’m soooo glad to see you!”
She issued a laugh. “I expect my cat to leap at me when I open a door, but not you.” She squeezed Kimmy. They held on to each other for a beat, just soaking in all that happened that they hadn’t yet discussed.
There was so much to share.
When they broke apart, their eyes met. A lump formed in Bronte’s throat. Ever since Jace kissed her goodbye that morning, she had done nothing but cry. But how could she ever explain that her heart had been ripped out and he took it away with him to Montana?
She moved through the office, aware of the noise her shoes made on the tile floors, something she’d never noticed until Jace mentioned it.
“Let’s talk in my office,” she said to Kimmy, who was already following.
As soon as the door shut and they both took seats, they stared at each other again.
“McCoy is in a committed relationship.” Kimmy’s statement took a moment to sink into Bronte’s brain.
