He nodded. “I hope it’s okay that I stayed. I didn’t want to wake you.”
She smiled. “It’s fine. I’m happy to see you.”
He reached over and pulled her into his arms. “I’m happy to see you too.” She sank into his embrace. “So? Are you? Okay?”
“I’m fine. Adam’s coming by tomorrow to talk. So that’ll be fun.”
“I’m sorry about Thursday,” he said.
She looked up at him. “It’s not your fault. He was early. It just happened.”
He bent his head to kiss her, tenderly at first, then more passionately as she opened to him, his tongue sliding against hers, sweeping and probing while his arm tightened around her shoulders.
He slid his free hand into her hair and stroked her neck with his thumb. The sensation sent chills all the way down her spine. They settled in her core, a lick of fire that demanded to be fed by his hand, his mouth, his cock.
Her nipples were hard and begging for his touch when he pulled away. “Olivia…”
She nodded and sat up, pulling away from him. “Sorry. I got carried away. I seem to do that a lot with you.”
He tucked a piece of her hair behind her ear. “You don’t have to apologize to me for getting carried away.” He took her hand, pressed it against his bulging cock. “You’re not the only one.”
Hunger pulsed at her core. “Not fair.”
He grinned. “It’ll give you something to look forward to.” His expression grew serious. “Except…”
“Except?”
“I have a big business… situation coming up. I’ll be busy for a few weeks.”
She heard the disappointment in his voice, tried not to show too much of her own. “That’s okay. It’s not like I’m going anywhere.”
He stared into her eyes. “I hope that’s true, Ruby.” Her name sounded sensual in his mouth. “Because I’d like to think we’re just getting started.”
She knew he wasn’t just talking about their budding relationship, whatever it was or might become.
He was talking about sex.
She could hear it in the deep promise in his voice and she remembered the feeling she’d had in bed: that he was holding back, that he was forcing himself to be careful with her.
The thought made her pussy slick with wet heat. Fucking him the first time had been all-consuming, like being burned alive from the inside out.
What would he be like unleashed?
It was all too easy to imagine, and her cheeks were burning along with her body when he spoke again.
“I should go. I don’t want to make things strange with Olivia.”
“Stay.” She said it before she could think about it. “Let me make you breakfast.”
He rubbed at the sexy shadow on his jaw. “I don’t want to make a mistake here. I’ve never been around children. I can only take my cues from you.”
“I know,” she said. “But I think it’s okay. My sister…” She took a deep breath. “My sister says I overthink, that I’m too careful. I don’t think she’s entirely right, but I don’t think she’s entirely wrong either.”
“You have a lot on your plate,” he said gently. “You do what you do for Olivia.”
For the first time in a long time, she felt seen. Shediddo what she did for Olivia.
“I do, but Brooke has a point. Olivia already saw you last night. You’re in the living room, fully clothed — ”
