Grabbing the sheet still wrapped around her, he tugged her onto the bed. “Make-up sex.”

She laughed as he rolled on top of her. “I’ve never had make-up sex before.”

“Freckles, you’re in for a treat.”

Chapter 15

Jade listened to the year three and four students practicing the first verse of Wanted Dead or Alive Nate had taught them. With his patient instructions, they’d picked it up quickly. He had a knack for keeping the kids entertained and interested in music. And they adored him. Who wouldn’t? He was a rock god, and it showed in the way he moved, played, and sang. And he made every one of those kids believe they could be just like him if they kept practicing.

But her gaze wouldn’t stay focused on the students; it kept getting drawn to the music man strumming his guitar. She watched the way he caressed the strings, and flashbacks from the night before played in her mind. Those callused fingers got her singing a sweet tune too. She crossed her legs and fanned her face with a notepad. Was it getting hot in here?

Then, as if Nate could read her dirty mind, he pierced her with a sizzling look and winked. The kids stopped playing and laughed.

“Okay, guys and gals. You’re sounding pretty amazing. And because you’ve picked up that verse super-fast, we’ll learn the chorus next lesson.” They all smiled at the compliment. “Put your equipment away, and I’ll see you next week.”

As soon as the last student left the hall with a parent, Nate came from behind her and wrapped his arms around her waist. “I didn’t hear you leave this morning.”

She was glad for his support, because the feather-light kisses he was gliding up and down her neck were turning her knees to jelly. She’d been tempted to wake him up with a good-morning quickie. But she knew once she started, there’d be nothing quick about it and she’d never make it to work on time.

“What are you doing tonight?” he mumbled at the sensitive spot under her ear.

“Hopefully doing you.” She sounded breathless.

He chuckled. God, that low, sexy laugh vibrated through her body, awakening all her good parts.

“Want to go to dinner?”

Jade turned in his arms. “Dinner?”

“Yeah, you know…when you put food into your mouth around six PM. It’s called dinner.”

“I’m offering to give you all-access sex and you want dinner?”

“All access?” He raised an eyebrow.

“Well, there’s one area that’s a no-go zone, but everything else is wide open.” She grinned.

“I love it when you talk dirty, Freckles.”

He was teasing, but his words caused her stomach to do cartwheels. “And you should see the underwear I’m wearing.”

“More superheroes?”

She slid a hand up his chest and hooked it behind his neck, drawing his mouth an inch from her lips. “You’ll have to find out for yourself.”

Puss in Boots. This time her undies were a cartoon character, and Nate couldn’t be more turned on. It made him want to see her whole collection. What kind of sicko did that make him?

After ditching his dinner ideas they’d ordered pizza and came back to his house. Now they laid on the bed in a tangle of arms and legs. The sound of rough, heavy breathing was the only noise in the room. Damn, sex with Jade just kept getting better and better.

He pushed the mass of red hair from her face and peered down at Jade’s expression. His chest puffed. Hell yeah, he put that satisfied look on her face.

Her pretty blue eyes blinked up at him. “I think I’m dead. As in I’ve died and gone to heaven. Even though what you did was definitely sinful and could only come from the devil himself.”

There was no higher compliment. “You were pretty wicked yourself.”

She stretched, placing her breasts dangerously close to his mouth. “We make a good team. I could get used to this.” Her eyes widened. “I mean for as long as you’re in town. I’ll totally forget all about you once you leave. No, no, that sounds so slutty. I’ll remember you, but I won’t be pining for you…” She buried her face in his chest. “I should stop talking now.”
