“Yes?” he purred. He squeezed her thigh and shifted his other hand to the small of her back.

Rose leaned in to kiss slowly along his jawline to his ear and give it a light nip. His skin burned beneath her lips, and he bit his inner cheek to keep himself quiet.

“I know I should’ve waited until you’re finished for the day, but I couldn’t help it,” she whispered, her warm breath in his ear sending a shudder through him. “I want you.”

Luke growled low in his throat, shifting the hand at her back lower to give her ass a squeeze, which earned him a soft moan.

“I love it when you’re feeling like this,” he muttered, his lips brushing over the smooth skin of her neck.

“When I’m desperate for you?” Rose ground her hips into his. Luke groaned, rocking upward against her, his mind clouded by thoughts of how good she felt and how sexy it was that she’d paid him a visit like this. He was straining severely against his pants, his cock aching to be buried inside her.

“Yes,” he breathed. “You’re intoxicating.”

“You think so?” She kissed along his jaw slowly as her hands rubbed his shoulders.

Luke closed his eyes, savoring the touch of her lips and her hands. “You know I do.”

Rose nibbled at his neck and rubbed her hips against his once more. “Is this okay? Do you want to?”

Luke groaned at the delicious friction, squeezing her ass with one hand while his other ran up her side to rest on her breast through her dress. All his reservations seemed so unimportant, now. Yes, she’d kept a secret from him, but for how long? Less than a day? He knew her, he reminded himself, probably better than anyone else. She would’ve told him when she was ready.

A voice at the back of his mind whispered that she hadn’t told him about their child until four years after she’d lost the baby, but he silenced it. He didn’t know whether he would’ve handled the situation any differently, if their roles were reversed, and he didn’t want to resist her for the sake of holding onto anger that didn’t feel completely justified.

He surrendered.

“I want you,” he said.

Rose lifted her face to his and kissed him slowly, deeply. Luke met her kiss with hunger as he began to rub and squeeze her breast. She moaned against his lips, pressing her chest forward against his hand. Encouraged by her reaction, Luke continued his squeezes and caresses. He couldn’t count the number of times he’d fantasized about her showing up at his office like this, walking through his door and back into his life.

I’d better not be dreaming, he thought.

He’d grown incredibly hard, now, and his pants were far too restricting. He grudgingly removed his hand from her backside to reach down and undo the button restraining him. Rose let out a questioning noise into his mouth when his hand shifted, but when it brushed against her sex as he unfastened his pants, he felt her shiver.

“Let me help you,” she breathed. She dragged her fingers slowly down his chest and stomach to settle eventually at his pants. She leaned back just slightly to meet his eyes and bite her lip as she lowered his zipper and slipped her hand within to rub him.

“Rose…” Luke groaned roughly, letting his eyes drift closed for a moment before forcing them open again to stare into hers, certain his lust was apparent in every facet of his expression. He didn’t bother to hide it. He wanted her to know how much he needed her touch.

“Yes?” She rocked against him with a moan as she held his gaze. Her hands worked his pants and boxers over his hips, and he lifted himself up a bit to help her.

She closed her hand around his length and stroked him with her thumb. Luke let out a growl. He pulled her closer, his lips latching onto her neck. He nipped at the spot above her clavicle he knew was her most sensitive and sucked on it as he thrust into her hand. Rose let out a moan as his motion lifted her in his lap.

“Luke, yes…” Her voice was breathy and full of need, mingling with the moisture he felt through her lacy underwear to drive him mad with lust. If he didn’t get inside her soon, he was going to explode.

She released her grip on him to work open the buttons of his shirt quickly, and he ripped it off and tossed it to the floor before sliding his hands beneath her skirt. He rubbed circles along her thighs as his hands moved upward and his lips crept along her neck. He grasped her underwear and pulled them down, letting out a low growl as the wet material clung to her skin.

Rose shifted enough to rid herself of her panties without moving too far from her spot on his lap, and when she’d finished, she tucked the underwear beneath his thigh. She gripped his shoulders and shifted to sink down onto his aching cock.

Luke let out a loud groan, arching his hips to push as deeply into her as he could. He was overwhelmed by the feeling of her wrapped around him and the notion that this was happening, and he planned to enjoy every second of it. He rested his hands on her hips and moved her in time with his thrusts. Rose’s head rolled backward as she let out a low groan.

“Aah—eager?” she teased, her hands squeezing his shoulders tightly.

He brought his lips to her ear. “Very,” he said in the low, gravelly tone he’d learned long ago was one of her weaknesses.

Her fingernails dug into his shoulders as she moaned, her hips working hard against his and her breath growing shallower by the moment. Luke found it increasingly difficult to stifle his noises as her motions grew faster and the haze of pleasure filling his mind grew thicker with each moment he spent within her. He kept one hand at her hip and lifted the other to twist his fingers into her strawberry-blond hair and pull her face down to his. He captured her lips hungrily as he rocked into her.

Flashes of his home and his bed and the chair by the fire and every other place he wanted to have her passed through Luke’s mind, and he knew he wouldn’t be able to keep himself away from her anymore. He’d missed her too much. He needed her too much.

Eventually, Rose pulled her lips back with a gasp for air, and Luke kissed desperately along her neck until he had access to her mouth again. He tugged on her lips between moans and growls as he fought hard to keep her pace without losing his mind. When at last her body embraced him tightly and a low groan burst from her throat, he couldn’t hold back any longer. He moaned her name against her lips as he spilled within her.
