Oh God! They were going to get caught.
She tried to scramble away, but Jake didn’t let her budge. Instead, he put a hand over her mouth and thrust harder.
Her eyes went wide.
“You’re coming for me, baby,” he said quietly.
His strength and determination surrounded her and with every deep glide, every punishing thrust, he took her so deeply that her back slid up the wall.
She couldn’t deny him. The fire spread from her sex to her breasts, burning up her blood as her release shot through every single vein.
She screamed against his palm, and he just fucked her harder. Through her orgasm and into another one while he found his release.
His breath was heavy in her ear as he groaned her name and she felt him tense and come, his big body shuddering against hers.
He slowly peeled back his hand and peppered kisses across her mouth, her nose, and her cheek, finally letting her slide down while he cleaned up.
“Boss?” Mannie called. His footsteps came closer. “Boss, you back here?”
Laura moved double time to tug her pants on and fix her hair and try not to panic. Jake just looked cool and collected. He simply fastened his belt and watched her.
She made a gesture in Mannie’s direction.
“Hey, I’m back here,” Jake called out.
“What the hell are you doing?” she whispered.
“What? You’re dressed.”
“I’m frazzled!” she whispered, harsher this time.
“You’re beautiful,” he said, just as Mannie walked up. “Hey, how did the delivery go?” Jake asked him, as if nothing had just happened.
“Great. Straightforward.”
“Excellent. You can take off for the day if you want, after we go over tomorrow.”
“I’ll be up front,” Mannie said, then nodded to Laura and turned to l
eave.
Jacob just turned to her, gave her a kiss, and smacked her butt. “That was the best damn breather I’ve ever had.”
He gave a smile that made her mouth dry and other areas wet. She watched him walk back toward the front of the shop, and she knew right then that she was in big, big trouble. Because not only was she growing increasingly worried that she couldn’t run the warehouse anywhere near as well as Jake could, she was also falling for the sexy foreman and worst, it was affecting her heart.
Chapter Twelve
“This is going to be real nice, Cal,” Jake said to his buddy, looking out at several acres of land ready to be built on.
“The plans are all drawn up, and this whole area will have rustic-looking log cabins instead of the cookie-cutter houses you normally get with subdivisions.”
“It’ll look great, man.” Jake slapped his buddy on the back. He’d known Cal a long time. And the man not only worked hard but was talented. The homes he built were unique. He’d started a small construction company once upon a time and now had a major contract and his own crew.
“Yeah, and you’ll be the lumber supplier, right?” Cal nudged his shoulder.
“Still haven’t hired someone yet?” Jake said. Which made his buddy face him with a serious look on his face.
“I have to, Jake. I can’t wait any longer,” Cal said. “I hear with Laura working there, you can be freed up more. Take this project. Work with me on it.”
