“Never again,” he promised, moving his hands to cup her face.
Nodding, she leaned back and started to unknot his tie.
He looked up at her now, as she concentrated on the buttons of his shirt, and said, “You’re so beautiful, Chloe. You’re everything.”
Crawling out of his lap, she stood in front of the couch, pulling him against her. They quickly removed their clothes, their hands shaking with urgency.
She pressed him back down on to the couch. Moving back into his lap, he adjusted his erection at her opening. When she slid down on to him, they both cried out in relief. As she started to work her hips against his, he slid his hands into her hair, tilting her lips down to meet his.
She started to rotate her hips slightly as she moved against him, crying out into his mouth. He groaned now, tilting his head back and said, “Fuck. I’m not going to last, baby.”
Working her hips rapidly against his now, she panted, “Oh god. Me neither.”
Seconds later he felt her splinter above him, her nails digging into his shoulders as she cried out his name. A moment later, he let go, following her over the edge groaning out her name as he emptied himself inside her.
She laid her head against his shoulder, panting and pressing kisses against his neck. He turned his head to look at her and smiled, then said, “It’s like coming home.”
Epilogue
Six Months Later
Chloe stood in front of the mirror in Chris’s bathroom applying a coat of lip gloss, when she saw him walk through the door.
“I’m almost ready. Five more minutes,” she said in response to his somewhat impatient look. She wiped the edge of her mouth, removing the excess gloss.
Sighing mournfully, Chris said, “No, no. Take your time. I’m just dying of hunger over here.”
“So where are we going?” she asked. He’d been so secretive this past week. Any time she’d asked him about it, he would just tell her it was a surprise.
He’d really enjoyed taunting her. She could see the slight mercenary gleam in his eye when he responded, “You’ll see.”
A moment later he added, “Oh. We have to make a quick stop first.”
“But I thought you were dying of hunger,” she said, a slight smirk playing across her features.
Chris narrowed his eyes and said, “Hush, you.”
Ten minutes later they were in the car, headed back toward her apartment. She looked around, somewhat confused.
“We’re heading toward my place?” she asked.
> “Be lucky I didn’t blindfold you, woman. I’m not answering any questions.” he said, concentrating on the road even though she could see his lips twitching.
Thinking about the last time she’d been blindfolded, she reached out and stroked her hand up his thigh, grazing his cock lightly and said, “But baby, you know how much I like blindfolds.”
Groaning, he said, “Don’t make me pull over to the side of the freeway and fuck you senseless.”
“Oh no,” she said in mock dismay. “Please don’t fuck me senseless. That would be terrible.”
“If only we didn’t have somewhere to be,” he said. “I’m half tempted to pull over anyway.”
Chloe sighed and said, “Fine, fine. I’ll stop. I just want to know where we’re going.”
“Lucky for you,” he said, pulling off the freeway with an indulgent smile, “We’re almost there.”
A few short minutes later, they turned into a residential area in Melrose. She looked at him curiously now, wondering what they were doing here. She didn’t bother to ask. He was so ridiculously stubborn when he wanted to be. He’d been lording this secret over her for the better part of a week.
When he pulled into a driveway and turned off the car, he said, “Come with me.”
