“An improvement, I suppose.”

“My girl is demanding.”

“You’d better believe it.”

His lips captured hers, and he reversed down the hallway toward her bedroom, still kissing her, hands firmly planted on her ass. Kicking the door open, he backed up, pulling her along with him. Goose bumps rose to the surface of her arms and along the back of her neck, and her skin felt ultra-sensitive, a sure sign of nerves.

“It’s been a long time, Zane.”

“Too long.”

Sure fingers worked the buttons on her shirt, and as the last one gave, Zane pushed the cotton over her shoulders. Using his fingertip, he traced her scar. She couldn’t see his eyes from this angle, but the hitch of his breath and the drooping shoulders sent a clear message.

“What you went through without me, Lori.” His voice cracked. “Never again.” Two pools of melted chocolate pierced her. “Promise me that you will never hide a single thing from me ever again.”

“I promise.” Her voice cracked, her throat closing over. “I promise, Zane.”

His mouth crashed onto hers, robbing her of her breath. One flick of nimble fingers and her bra loosened. She freed her arms from around his neck and let the scrap of lace fall to the floor. He made short work of her jeans, and only then did he stop kissing her. Dropping to his knees, he slid her panties down her legs while she balanced by gripping his shoulders. Naked, and not just physically, she looked down on him kneeling at her feet.

“I love you, Lori James.”

She went to reply, but the intended words died on her tongue as Zane circled the tip of his tongue around her clit, then sucked it between his lips. She gasped, her body responding to him as if the intervening years hadn’t happened.

Her stomach flipped, and a slew of goose bumps raced down her spine. She held on tight, her body swaying from the heat of his tongue, the insistence of his lips, the groans of pleasure in his throat. Thrusting her fingers into his thick, dark hair, she anchored herself, holding on as her body drowned in wave after wave of bliss.

“Don’t stop.” She’d die if he did. Her body, starved of him for so long, craved more of what he willingly offered. Her legs turned to jelly, her thighs trembling under the effort of holding herself upright. Hips undulating, she rode Zane’s face.

“More.” She threw her head back. “God, more, Zane.”

And he obliged. Oh, how he obliged. Stars danced behind lids rammed shut to absorb the pleasure coursing through her. She curled her toes into the carpet, on the cusp of an explosion she acknowledged would tear her apart.

He pushed her legs wider, spreading her open. Massaging her clit with the pad of his thumb, he feasted on her. A man as starved for her as she was for him. He growled, actually growled, fucking her with his tongue and his fingers until she came apart on a cry that her neighbors had to hear through the walls. Boneless, she wavered. Zane caught her around the waist, steadying her as the ripples from her orgasm continued to rage, slowly ebbing to tiny pulses.

“Fuck,” she breathed. “Fuck, fuck, fuck.”

She didn’t often curse, evidenced by a rumble that sounded in Zane’s chest which morphed into a full-blown chuckle. He stood upright, curved his hands around her face, and murmured, “Taste this and then you’ll know.” He pressed two fingers to her lips, and when she opened her mouth, he pushed them inside.

She sucked, and a sweet tang burst onto her taste buds. Her. That was the taste of her, the taste he’d gorged on.

“That’s why I’ll never have enough, Lori. I spent years dreaming of tasting you again. I promised myself that once more would be enough and now I have, I know that was a lie. I’ll never have enough.”

She arched a brow. “You know how to get inside a girl’s panties with that smooth talk, Quinlan.”

He ran the tip of his nose down hers. “The only panties I’m interested in getting into is yours. Today, tomorrow, and for the rest of time.”

“Please tell me you brought condoms.”

He dug a hand into the pocket of his pants, producing three silver packets. “I expected nothing but hoped for everything.”

“Three?”

“Yeah.” He flashed a Zane special, a smile that turned her insides to mush. “Thought I’d go easy on you the first time.” He tossed them on the nightstand, then gripped his T-shirt by the neck and pulled it over his head. His pants were next to go, and then his boxers, and finally she could get her hands on him, naked and unimpeded.

“I always loved your dick.”

“Just as well, because it’s the only one you’re ever going to get from here on in.” He picked her up and tossed her on the bed. She bounced, laughing as Zane crawled after her. “You might want to think up an excuse for your team to explain why you’re walking funny tomorrow.”

“I’ll just tell them my hot boyfriend banged me all night.”
