With a coy smile, she did. Taking in the sight of her, all dainty curves, creamy flesh, and tight pink nipples, he groaned harshly.

He rubbed the delicate lacey material between his fingers. “Can I have my bonus now?”

“Nope, you have one more box to go.”

He closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and considered kissing her to get her to change her mind. But by the flush on her face and the intensity in her eyes, she was enjoying their game. Drawing things out. So was he. He opened his eyes, stood, caressed her cheek with his fingertips, then turned on his heel to return to pack. Ten minutes later, he had finished stuffing a box full of his mother’s yarn, knitting needles, and miscellaneous sewing paraphernalia.

“Oh, Jill,” he called, more than ready for the finale.

She turned from clearing out his dresser. “Yes? Oh…your payment. Yes, right away,.” Smiling, she stopped what she was doing, stuck her fingers into the side bands of her panties, then shimmied her hips and slowly pulled them off.

“Wait!” he said, twirling his fingers. “Would you turn around?”

With a sexy little glance over her shoulder, she did as he asked. “Like this?”

“Yeah, just like that. Do that little dance for me while you pull them off…and go really, really slow.”

She giggled again. And wiggled again. When she finally slipped her panties off, she was bent over, giving him a titillating view of how wet she was.

“Beautiful…” His dick throbbed, knowing this was turning her on as much as it was him.

Instantly, he wanted to forget their little game, keep her bent over just like that, and touch her until she screamed. Somehow, he managed to maintain control.

He let out a heavy groan. “Damn! I’m glad I have a strong heart. Now about that bonus…”

She immediately walked up to him and he enfolded her in his arms. He took her mouth with his, nearly knocking the wind from his own lungs. She sucked in a deep breath as he pressed his tongue against the seam of her lips. They fell open, and his tongue delved inside.

She was like dark chocolate, smooth and velvety. His tongue caressed every inch of her wet, inviting mouth. His head spun. He could think of nothing but the intoxicating taste of her soft lips, delighting in the way her breaths quickened to match his own.

His hands wandered over her luscious body, along the sides of her breasts, across her delicate waist, and down to her hips. He tugged her against him, letting his erection press against her. He caressed one round, firm cheek with his left hand. His right hand cupped her breast.

She brought a hand to his chest and stepped back. Still dazed and panting hard, her chest heaving, she said, “Wait...you’re cheating.”

He pressed his forehead against hers. “Cheating? Me? I would never.”

“Your bonus was a kiss.”

“And what a nice bonus it was. But I was thinking…it looks like you’ve packed what…three boxes of your own?” He glanced at the full boxes sitting next to his old double bed.

She gave him a suspicious look. “Yeah, what about it?”

“Well, I think you deserve a bonus too, don’t you?”

She pretended to consider his words. “I suppose it depends. What did you have in mind?”

He grinned, and his eyes roved her entire body from head to toe. “I’ve got a lot of things in mind. And I think you’re going to enjoy them all. How about I show you?” Gently, Cole pressed her back against the wall and slid his hand down between her legs. He ran his fingers slowly along her slit, causing her to gasp. He kissed her neck, letting his fingers linger on the hood of her clit, pressing just a bit but not too much.

She moaned but still hesitated. “I don’t know about this. I’m not sure this was part of the…” She caught her breath. “Deal.” He slid one finger inside of her and bit down gently on the tender flesh above her shoulder. “Oh, never mind.”

Cole smiled against her neck. He loved it. Loved her reactions, loved the way she felt wrapped around his finger. He looped his arm around her waist and pulled her up against his chest, then he bent his head slightly and pressed his lips to hers for a sweet kiss. Slowly, he drew his lips across hers and lifted up just slightly so he could see her face. Her eyes were closed. She gasped every time he pulled his finger out and gasped again when he slid it back in.

A moan rose from his throat and he nuzzled his face into her hair. “Mmm, you smell good. And feel good. And taste good.” Gently, he shifted his hold until she was steady on her feet. Then he took her hand. “Thank you for my reward. I don’t want to take more than you intended. I can go back to packing…”

His words trailed off when Jill shook her head and lifted the hem of his shirt. Raising his arms above his head, he allowed her to strip the shirt of him.

“Jill?”

“I want you to fuck me, Cole,” she said, her voice assertive. Hungry. “Fuck me here in your fantasy lair.”
