Maybe he’d had his own fantasy or two about the construction worker and the business executive. Maybe that was why he’d been so inclined to oblige her when the truth about what she’d really wanted had caused him to scrap dinner and head straight to the bedroom. Jake had told her he’d noticed her, after all. She might have made the first move, but she clearly wasn’t the only one wrapped up in this fiery attraction.
Peeling away Jake’s briefs provided all the proof she needed that she turned him on.
Yet another much-needed ego boost…
For several breathless moments, she simply savored the sight of him. So thick and wide and…magnificent.
More evidence of her effect on him was only a stroke away. When her fingers glided over the smooth flesh covering the hard steel, Jake’s body jerked and he hissed out a breath.
“Goddamn,” he said in a rough voice. “You barely touched me.”
She stared up at him. Lust flashed in his eyes. Kate’s fingers wrapped around him at the base and his jaw tightened, as though he were fighting to keep himself in check.
She leaned forward and her tongue darted out. Slid up his shaft to his tip.
“Kate.” He whispered her name, evoking more tremors within her.
It seemed as though her entire being had just been jolted back to life. Jake was like electric shock therapy for her damaged soul.
And it made Kate doubly intent on pleasing him.
Opening her mouth, she drew him in, inch by inch, taking as much of him as she could. She eased his cock almost all the way out, then back in, then out again. Slowly. So very, very slowly. Her tongue swirled around his head, teasing him. His body tensed.
“Christ,” he growled. “You’re going to make me come, Kate.”
She wanted to. She wanted to push him, push him, push him and let him fall over the edge. Kate wanted to feel him swell inside her mouth and make him lose all control so that he gave himself over to a powerful orgasm she delivered, while he called out her name.
But that would detain her from her ultimate goal.
So she relinquished her hold on him and stood, with help from Jake as his hand cupped her elbow.
“Tell me what you want,” she said.
“I want you on the bed,” he answered without an ounce of hesitation. “On your stomach. Leave the shoes on.”
Kate did as he asked and sprawled across the mattress. Jake grabbed one of the pillows propped against the headboard. His arm slid around her waist and he positioned the cushion under her belly so Kate’s ass lifted. Then his hands were suddenly there, covering both cheeks, spreading them.
She buried her face in the satiny duvet for just a moment. But then she reminded herself that Jake was bold and daring and she should be, too. Of course, he was going to fuck her in ways most women only read about or saw in sexy movies. Tonight, Kate would experience that ultra-steamy brand of lovemaking.
And wasn’t that what she’d wished for all along?
Conjuring a little verve, she peered at Jake over one shoulder as his smoldering gaze swept over her naked body.
“You’re amazing, Kate.”
She caught her bottom lip with her teeth. She’d not allowed any insecurities to derail her this evening. Not the agony she’d silently, privately harbored the past two years. Or the fact that she was much older than the Adonis.
She wouldn’t falter now.
Releasing her lip, she simply said, “Thank you.”
Jake leaned in and his tongue whisked over her folds. Kate gasped as lightning struck.
The tip of his tongue fluttered against her clit. Quickly. Lightly. Teasing and titillating.
Kate fisted the bedspread. Jake’s mouth on her was more fantastic than she’d imagined.
His tongue flitted against the tiny pearl between her legs and then his lips tugged on her dewy folds before he got serious with his licking and suckling.
