She’d barely had time to register the unexpected thought—or its potential weight—when she felt his hand sliding between their undulating bodies. Her breath hitched, and Ellie moaned as Lucky began rubbing her clit with moves better than her own.
“I’m…close…” His hips moved a bit faster. His thrusts grew harder in their intensity. “Need…you…first…”
Her first?
She’d already climaxed once, thanks to his uber-talented mouth and tongue. And now he was working her body into asecondorgasm before allowing himself to get there first?
The man was nothing if not full of surprises.
Not one to argue—okay, so that was literally the main part of her job, but still—Ellie let her lids fall shut once more, and she focused on nothing but the way he was making her feel. Between the moment, the man, and his expert fingers, it wasn’t long before those earlier tingles grew into a full-blown explosion.
Ellie cried out his name as she came a second time, just as she’d done when he’d gotten her off before. Her back arched high, her nails digging into the skin at his shoulders as waves of pleasure rolled through her entire being.
She was so caught up in her own release that she almost missed it when Lucky finally found his. The man’s entire body tensed, and his thrusts became jerky and uneven. He came with a guttural groan, her name a primal grunt immediately after as he rode them both through the remnants of his powerful climax.
“Holy shit!” Lucky heaved as he tried to talk while also catching his breath. “That was…I can’t even…” He gave a quick shake of his head before smacking his lips to hers. “That was—”
“Incredible?” She took a chance.
Ellie’s heart swelled to the point she thought it might burst when he shook his head again and smiled. “I was going to say ‘perfect’.”
Perfect.
Just like him. Just like the two of them together. Only problem was there was no ‘them’, and they weren’t actually together. For now, though, Ellie refused to think about those pesky details. He was hers for tonight, and for now, that was all she needed to know.
For now.
Chapter 15
The next morning…
Ellie stepped out of Lucky’s bathroom. Dressed in a pair of denim capris that were just a tad too snug and a pink, short-sleeved blouse—complete with soft ruffles running along each side of the shirt’s tiny white buttons—she’d finished off the borrowed look with a pair of brown, slip-on sandals.
She smiled as she passed by Lucky’s bed, incredible, erotic memories of last night still running fresh in her sleep-deprived mind. Not that she minded missing out on a full eight hours. Not when she considered the reason she’d lost so many hours of beauty sleep.
Hours. Not minutes. Lucky had spent hours making love to her.
The first time had been amazing. Jaw-dropping, even. Then they’d gotten into the shower, and before Ellie knew it, they’d moved on to a most delicious round two.
Round three had occurred later, after they’d each caught a few re-energizing winks. Glancing at the digital clock on one of Lucky’s bedside tables, her smile grew even wider when she realized less than an hour had passed since their last round of wild, unbridled sex.
I had sex with Lucky. Several times!
Ellie’s footfalls grew still as she took the time to really process this new turn of events.
If you’d asked her a week ago what she thought of the man, she would’ve rolled her eyes and drolled on and on about how immature and insatiable he was. A week ago, Ellie would havebeen more than happy to share countless examples of how frustratingly annoying Lucky could be.
But now, if someone were to ask what she thought about Jason Lucas, Ellie would have a very,veryhard time saying anything other than…
He’s everything I never knew I wanted.
Thankfully, no one was around to ask because that was one admission she wasn’t quite ready to make.
With her hair freshly blown dry—and possibly styled a smidge just because—and a touch of makeup freshening up her look, Ellie exited Lucky’s room and made her way down the hallway in search of the man, himself.
She peeked into his office on her way past, but the light was off and his chair sat empty. It didn’t take long before she located him, and when she did, Ellie found a sight she did not expect to see.
No way.
