“I want you so bad,” he whispered.
I turned around and our mouths met. Our tongues tangled in passion and my skin was set on fire. His fingers slowly traveled down my torso until they reached the fabric of my panties. In one swoop, they were down and his fingers explored me.
“You love this. Don’t you?”
“Yes,” I breathed out.
“You’re always so wet and delicious. I can’t stop myself when you’re around.”
My hands reached for his pants. Feeling the big bulge in front, I stroked him through the fabric. He hissed. My hands reached up and began unbuttoning his shirt. Sliding it off his shoulders, I gripped his muscular arms. Arms that made me feel safe. Arms that held me at night after sex. Pulling his fingers out, his tongue slid down the front of me, stopping at each breast first, sucking my hardened nipples before making his way down the fiery aching spot that desperately needed him. Getting down on his knees, he started with my inner thigh, making tiny circles around it until he reached my slick opening. A low moan escaped his chest as he tasted the pleasure that was made because of him.
“I can’t wait anymore, baby.” He stood, picked me up and carried me to the table that sat twelve. Facing the table, and with him standing behind me, he took down his pants and threw them to the side. He leaned into me, resting his hard cock on the small of my back. Lightly grabbing my hair, he pulled my head back.
“Are you ready?” he whispered.
“I’m always ready.”
“Jesus, Emerson,” he spoke, winded as he thrust inside me, burying himself deep inside my soul.
I moaned loudly, which caused his thrusting to increase in speed. He was pounding into me like he never had before. Suddenly, he pulled out and turned me around, lifting me up so I was sitting on the edge of the table. Wrapping my legs around his waist, he thrust into me a few times and then laid me on my back so I was stretched out on the table. He climbed on top and hovered over me while he brushed the strands of hair from my face, his eyes staring into mine. Once again, he thrust into me, slow and smooth before bringing his lips to mine. It wasn’t long before his rhythmic movement brought me to an amazing orgasm, panting out his name as he pushed one last time inside and held himself there, filling me with his come.
“Are you okay?” He smiled.
I lay there, underneath him, panting and trying to catch my breath.
“Yep. I’m good. I mean, great. I mean, fuck, Alex, what was that?”
He chuckled as he kissed my lips.
“I’m going to assume you thoroughly enjoyed it?”
“Enjoyed it is way too mild of a statement. That was mind-blowing. The type of mind-blowing sex that leaves your body craving for more every second of every day. The kind that stays with you and on your mind 24/7. The kind that one doesn’t forget so easily.”
The grin on his face grew wide as he placed his hand on my cheek.
“Good. I’ll make you a deal. Any time your body is craving that mind-blowing sex, I’m more than willing and happy to fulfill your body’s needs.”
I placed my hand on his chest. “You are way too kind, Parker. My body thanks you.”
Laughing, he kissed me one more time before climbing off of me and helping me up.
Chapter 25
Emerson
I awoke wrapped in Alex’s arms. The sheets tangled around us from the second round of mind-blowing sex we had. I lay there and listened to the drops of rain softly hit the railing of the balcony. I quietly climbed out of bed, slipped on my robe, and went out onto the balcony, staring at the city of Seattle. Being here with Alex was something I hadn’t planned on. Things were intense between us. Feelings and emotions I never experienced before crept in and left me dazed and confused. My stomach started to flutter every time he was around. What the fuck was that about? I mentioned on more than one occasion how his scent drove me wild. But it was getting extreme. The moment I would catch a whiff of him, my pheromones took over and the ache below became more unbearable than the previous time.
“Can’t sleep?” I heard Alex say as he stepped out onto the balcony and wrapped his arms around my waist while laying his chin on my shoulder.
“I can sleep. I just woke up and heard the rain, so I thought I’d come out here for a while. I didn’t mean to wake you.” I placed my hands on his arms.
He felt good. Too good. Dangerously good. No one had ever made me feel this good before.
“You didn’t wake me.” His lips pressed into the side of my head.
“If I didn’t wake you, then why are you up?”
“Because I rolled over and I didn’t feel you next to me.”
“So I did wake you up?”
He laughed. “Fine. You woke me up.”
“Sorry,” I whispered.
“Don’t be. You can wake me up anytime you want.”
There was something I didn’t tell him. Something that happened earlier. I got a call from Adam and his work was almost finished in Tennessee. He’d be home next week, we’d have our talk, and then I’d leave; move on to the next adventure.
“Adam called me this morning.”
“How is he?” Alex asked.
“He’ll be home next week.”
“Really? I thought he had three more weeks there.”
“He wrapped up early.”
“I see.” He let go of me and went back inside the room. I followed.
“What’s wrong?”
“Nothing. It’s three in the morning. We really should get some sleep.”
I climbed in on my side and Alex climbed in on his. He turned on his side, his eyes staring into mine. His lips softly brushed against mine.
“Get some sleep, Emerson.”
“You too, Parker.” I smiled as I ran my finger over his lips.
He turned on his back and I snuggled tightly against him.

Alex
I lay there, holding Emerson as tight as I could. Her leg was wrapped around me and her head lay on my chest. Adam would be home next week, and then, before I knew it, Emerson would leave. The thought of her leaving bothered me more than it should have. We’d grown so close and I had shared parts of my life with her. I didn’t want her to leave California. It had only been two months since I’d first met her, but in some unexplainable way, she had become a huge part of my life in such a short period of time, and I wasn’t ready to let her go. Fuck. I was going to do everything I could to make her stay.

I had room service delivered for us since we had barely slept. Emerson had just gotten out of the shower when our breakfast arrived.
“Thank God. I’m starving.” She smiled as she walked past me and smacked my ass.
“Really?”
“Really what?” she asked as she picked up a piece of toast and bit into it.
“You had to smack my ass when you walked by?”
She giggled. “Mhmm, and what a fine ass it is.”
I sighed as I sat down at the table.
“Did you wipe down the table?” she asked.
“Umm. No. Why would I?”
“Have you forgotten that we had sex on this table?”
“Trust me. I haven’t forgotten.” I got up, took my plate, and walked down to the other end of the table. Are you coming?” I raised a brow at her.
She picked up her plate and sat down across from me.
“Your hot ass didn’t touch this area down here, so we’re good.” I smiled.
“Gotcha.” She winked.
“Start thinking about what you want to do after my meeting.”
“I would love to go to the zoo. There’s one only a few miles from here.”
“The zoo? Really?”
“Yes, the zoo. Do you have a problem with the zoo, Parker?”
“No. I haven’t been to the zoo since I was a small child and my nanny took me.”
“Your nanny? Why am I not surprised?” She laughed.
“I’ll have you know that my nanny was one of the best.”
“I’m sure she was. Can I tell you how honored I am, Your Majesty, to be the second person ever to explore the zoo with you.” She took a bow.
I sighed. “Why do you do that?”
The grin on her face widened. “Because I know it pisses you off.”
“Are you trying to raise my blood pressure, Emerson?”
“No,” she spoke with a twisted face. “Don’t forget to take your pill.” She smacked my hand as I reached for the salt shaker.
