Brady leaned over me, our hands meshed above my head, his gaze steady as he pushed into me. His serious brown eyes added weight to the moment, as if silent willing me to accept him into my life, into my body. On a groan I thrust forward, seating him more fully in my heat. Brady’s forehead dropped to my shoulder, his breath coming in a wheeze.
“You are so slick. So hot. I can’t get enough, honey.”
His sexy rumble spurred me on, and I rolled my hips.
“Fuck me,” he breathed, expression pained.
“I’m trying to,” I whispered.
Brady braced himself over me, a dark light in his expression. His first full stroke nearly made my head come off, rocking my whole body with the strength of his thrust. I surrendered to the sensation, tilting my hips to meet him, thrust for thrust, as he bucked into me. When I thought I couldn’t take anymore, he reached a hand between us, adding extra pressure to my clit. One stroke, two, and I thrashed beneath him, lost in my release. Brady thrust one last time before collapsing on top of me, breathing hard.
After a languorous moment, he dropped a kiss on my daffodil tattoo and pushed himself to my side, gathering me to his chest. The heavy beats of our hearts slowed in unison, the sound reassuring me and leaving me boneless with contentment. Whatever I’d thought sleeping with Brady would be like, however I’d imagined him, reality was better.
“You good?” he asked as he slipped back into bed after taking care of the condom.
I smiled, snuggling back into his side. “So good.”
Chapter 17
Brady
Troublemeowed,commandinghismorning meal and waking me from a warm cocoon of softness. I stretched, enjoying the slide of cotton sheets and smooth skin against my legs. Careful not to wake Eve, I slipped from the bed, padding to the kitchen.
"Quiet, you," I admonished, adding food to Trouble's bowl before starting a pot of coffee.
I wandered into the living room, spotting Eve's sketchbook on the table. Blood rushed to my groin, and I shook my head. She had me acting like a teenager again, good to go at a moment's notice. Of course, it helped that her drawings of us constituted grade A seduction. The likenesses she'd created were almost uncomfortably accurate – more like they were drawn from memory than imagination.
"We can burn them if you like."
Eve's whisky-rough morning voice stroked a phantom hand down my spine, sending a fresh wave of desire through me.
She made a gorgeous picture, standing in the entryway to the living room, one shoulder peeking out of my oversized grey shirt. I wanted nothing more than to tumble her back into bed.
"They're so good," I protested, running a finger down the line of one breast, artfully drawn.
"And dangerous," she chided gently. "I knew when I made them that they'd need to be destroyed. For both our sakes."
The logical side of my brain was in complete agreement. It was one thing to have a sticker with my likeness make the rounds at school. I couldn't risk anything this hot falling into the wrong hands. While Eve's talent was undeniable, I'd lose my job in a flash if they got out, artistic license or no.
I flicked on the fireplace, already regretting what I needed to do. It was the right thing. For both of us, but part of me wanted to hold onto her sketches, keeping them like a shrine.
Slowly, we fed the drawings to the fire, watching the flames lick away the images of us.
Eve swiped her hands together. "Well, now that that's taken care of, how about a cup of coffee?"
I clasped her hand, drawing her into the kitchen, where I pulled down mugs, filling one before handing it to her.
"How about cooking?" I asked.
"I don't know, Brady. That makes two dangerous things you’re getting me to do before breakfast. What's come over you?"
I snorted gently, eyes dancing. "That would beyou. But I meant I'd cook you breakfast. I’m not asking you to cook. Are eggs okay?"
"Pretty sure you already scrambled mine," she muttered softly into her cup, and I grinned.
"Maybe after breakfast, we can hang out for the day? I don't really have any plans."
Eve groaned. "Unfortunately, I do. I have a few clients scheduled later this morning and into the afternoon."
