“Pictures, old textbooks, books, the lamp your mother gave you that doesn’t actually go with anything but you still use it. The blanket your nana quilted you so you wouldn’t get cold on winter nights. The stuff you gather by living your life.”

He shrugged and moved to kneel before her. “When you don’t have anywhere to land, why collect stuff you’d have to carry on your back?”

He started unbuttoning her shirt, but she was still caught up in their conversation. Her pulse kicked up a notch with every loosened button. She liked the idea of minimalism, but even then there was stuff she’d keep because of sentimental value.

“Are you going to get an apartment of your own when Brenda returns?” She didn’t even know why she was asking this. They weren’t permanent. She and Jonah weren’t a couple, but he did work with her and that wouldn’t change.

After this.

“If I decide to stay here.” He slipped her shirt down her arms.

She hadn’t bothered to put on a bra. His eyes darkened as he focused on her breasts. He leaned in and kissed her. Thoughts of his nomadic lifestyle slipped from her mind. His warm chest rubbed against her breasts and her thoughts focused in on Jonah again. He tipped her back on the bed and pulled her pants and underwear off.

He continued to kiss down her neck, spending some time sucking and kissing her breasts until her breath came out in small hitches. Her hands tangled in his hair. Just when she thought she couldn’t take anymore, he continued to trail his kisses down her stomach. He tugged her down to the edge of the bed and put her legs over his shoulders before his lips found her sex.

Tensing against the bed, she held her breath. When his tongue swiped over her, she cried out at the flood of desire that spiraled through her. His lips, tongue, and teeth did wicked things to her folds while his finger delved into her core. Her heart pounded like she had run miles. Her thighs squeezed against his shoulders. Just when she thought she’d tip over the edge, he’d change the tempo or ease up on the pressure, making her ride an endless roller coaster of need.

“Jonah!” Her fingers clenched into the comforter. A fine sheen of sweat covered her body as he kept her from release once again. How much more could she take?

He chuckled darkly against her folds, the vibration making everything more sensitive. He sucked and tongued her bundle of nerves, this time not releasing until she saw stars as she crested the peak and stayed there as his fingers kept up their torment.

Suddenly Jonah replaced his fingers with his cock and she hit a new level of awareness. She arched into him as her climax released. He thrust in and out of her, drawing her right back to the edge. She never knew it could be like this. His mouth crashed down on hers. She could taste herself in his kiss. Her body was so primed when he found his release, she came again.

He collapsed on the bed next to her, throwing away the condom in a trash basket near his nightstand, and pulled her into his arms.

She took deep breaths to try to steady her shaking limbs.

“You okay?” He pressed his lips against her forehead.

She tried to laugh at him as she lifted her head from his chest. “Were you trying to kill me? Because I’m pretty sure if I were a cat, I lost one of my lives.”

“Good thing you have more than one then.” His hand trailed down her spine. The gesture warmed her as her body grew heavy.

“I’m definitely going to need another shower.” She started to sit up, but he pulled her down on top of him.

“Later.” His dark blue eyes entranced her as he lifted her to kiss her lips.
