When she did and her gaze settled on a name, a sense of knowing and dread came over her.
Matt Dom.She didn’t recognize the name, but the instant she handed it over to Jaren and the team, the ball would start rolling. They’d find the person and dig up all the dirt on him.
Why the cops never searched for a piece of evidence like this, she didn’t know. Maybe her mother was just another dead woman in a foreign country who slipped through the cracks. It probably wasn’t so unusual.
A quiet knock on the door took her attention from the pages. She quickly slammed the book shut and shoved it under the pillow. When the door cracked open and Jaren’s big hand curled around the wood, her heart surged.
Her attraction had only multiplied since they confessed their feelings.
“Come in,” she said.
He widened the door to accommodate his shoulders. “Everyone left.” He darted a look to her hands and back to her face. She knew he was searching for the album, but she wasn’t ready to speak of what she’d learned. She needed a little longer to process it all before she shared.
Something pulsed inside her, hot and heavy. There was lust, sure…but what else was she feeling?
She gained her feet and padded across the room to Jaren. When she neared, he reached for her and she slipped into his embrace.
She looped her arms around his neck and leaned into him. His mouth found hers in a seeking kiss that soon heated to a blaze hotter than simple passion.
Anger.
She was furious. Her body pounded with it. And she only knew one way to release it.
She angled her head to take the kiss to another level, plunging her tongue deeper on every pass. Her hands roamed over his muscled back and she sank her fingertips into his carved ass.
“Me. You. The hot tub. Now.”
“Mmm,” he rumbled against her lips. “Let’s go.”
Gripping him by the hand, she led him out of the guestroom at a fast clip to the door leading to the deck.
He paused to enter the code to disarm the system and they slipped out.
While the hot tub started to run the jets, she grabbed him by the shirt. She started to yank him into the water, but he stopped her.
“You can’t get your new tat submerged. Here.” He walked over and grabbed a couple towels. Then he spread them on the side.
“I guess sex on the edge of the hot tub will have to do for now,” she rasped.
Their mouths collided. She raked her fingers over his hard flesh while his bit into her ass.
They ripped off their clothes, and he yanked her in again. “You didn’t tell me what you found in that album.”
Her chest tightened with more fury. “Right now, I just want you, Jaren.”
Dark eyes locked on hers. Her insides clenched and pulsed when she watched him roll a condom over his cock.
She straddled him.
As she sank over his thick erection, she let out a cry, which he swallowed in a white-hot kiss. Need spiraled through her, replacing the anger, and before she knew it, she was screaming his name to the music of bubbling water.
On the next thrust he surrendered to her with a deep groan. She collapsed in his strong arms as they recovered from the mad lust neither of them could stop.
She hoped this feeling never ended, but as soon as she gave him the information about her mother’s secret lover—who she was probably providing funds to—then everything would change. The case would be solved. She wouldn’t need a bodyguard anymore.
She wanted to cling to Jaren for just a minute longer.
