“I’ll show you.”
Quinn cupped her cheek, tilting her head back.
She couldn’t speak. Words formed on her tongue yet didn’t come out. What should she say or do?
Then his lips were on hers and all other thoughts left her mind.
Chapter Five
Quinn’s cock pressed against the front of his jeans, threatening to burst through. He’d imagined Kaley in his arms yet nothing had prepared him for this instant attraction. Her skin was soft, her body full and round. The need to take her was strong. He wouldn’t back down. Those stories she kept locked away in a computer sealed with his name meant he wasn’t going to let her go.
She’d lost all chance of getting away from him.
Sliding his other hand around her waist, he drew her closer.
He slid his tongue deep into her mouth, moaning as he did. She opened up to him like a delicate flower. Within seconds, her hands were on his shoulders, gripping tightly.
Breaking from the kiss, Quinn stroked her cheek. “Now you know.”
“You came here for me?”
“I quit being a SEAL for you. I did my time, paid my folks’ price. I wanted you the moment you graduated from school. I know I’m fucking crazy for wanting someone so young but you’re different, Kaley. You’ve always been different to me.” He caressed her back, never wanting her to go. Her eyes were bright as she looked up at him.
“I don’t know what to say.”
“You don’t need to say anything. I want you and I’m not going to let you go.”
“You didn’t need to stop being a Navy SEAL. I’d never stop you,” she said, touching his face. Both of her hands were shaking with tremors from the way she held on to him.
“It was a distraction. Now I’ve got you. You’re all the distraction I need.”
“Wait, the only reason you became a Navy SEAL was because of me?”
He nodded.
“You could have gotten yourself killed.”
“Baby, I needed to give you time to be alone. You were young. I respected my mom’s advice in giving you space.”
“She knows why you’re here.”
“The only person who doesn’t know why I’m here is you.” He fingered the edge of her shirt. Sliding his fingers underneath the fabric, he touched the smooth flesh of her stomach. He wanted to touch her without any clothes between them. Without asking her permission, he began opening her shirt, revealing her beautiful body to his gaze.
“What are you doing?” she asked.
Kaley didn’t fight him as he removed her shirt. She wore a sexy red lace bra that showed off her nipples. His cock ached with the amount of blood pounding through his veins.
“I want you, Kaley. No more hiding.” He claimed a kiss, stopping any kind of protest she may have. Slipping his tongue between her lips, he tasted her.
She moaned. The sound vibrated around his body, drawing him closer to her. He lifted her up in his arms, carrying her across the rooms. Quinn didn’t go for his room.
“What are you doing? You can’t carry me,” she said, wrapping her arms around his neck.
“I want you in my arms, baby.” He opened the door, kicking it closed before he placed her on the bed. Quinn tugged his shirt over his head, letting her see his naked chest.
Kaley had opened her lips to protest only to stop when he got partially naked. Her gaze landed on his chest, covered in the ink he’d gotten over the years. On his arm was the Navy SEAL insignia of his unit. The ink around his heart was her name in fancy writing. He’d gotten drunk when he visited home only to find she’d left to spend Thanksgiving with her family. It was one of the trips where he didn’t get to see her. He hated it but refused to go back to work without some memory or token of her. The tattoo was a constant reminder to him of what he was working for.
She stood up, staring into his eyes.
Quinn wondered what she was going to do when her hands lay on his chest.
“You really want me?”
“Yes.”
“I’ve always wanted you.” She stroked his chest, going up and down his abs. Her touch alone turned him on. He reached around her back, unsnapping her bra.
“This is moving too fast.”
“I’ve tried slow. You always found a way to be away from me.” He pulled the bra from her body. Quinn didn’t touch her breasts. Wrapping his arms around her back, he drew her closer so they were chest to chest. The tips of her breasts touched his chest, and it was perfect. He closed his eyes for a split second, relishing the feel of her being close to him. Quinn didn’t want to let her go.
Dropping a quick kiss to her neck, he licked the pulse. “If you don’t want me to continue, I won’t. The moment you tell me no, I’ll stop. I’m going to hold you and I’m not leaving. We’re together now, Kaley.”
