But now that the conflict between the Agostis and the Sokolov-King alliance has come to an end, Quinn won’t need my constant protection. And Killian is in dire need of my skills as his right-hand man again.

Still, I fully intend to savor this night to its fullest.

And as I pull into the parking garage beneath my Brooklyn Heights penthouse, Quinn hums with a giddy anticipation that makes my cock stand at attention.

“I’ve missed you,” she whispers as I open her car door and place my palm on the small of her back to guide her toward the elevator bank.

“You have no idea how much I’ve missed you,” I growl.

“Really?” she asks, turning to me with soft green eyes.

The elevator dings, and the doors slide open, giving me an excuse to grasp her hips and slowly guide her back into the small compartment.

“Really,” I murmur, pressing her back against the wall. I slip my key fob into the slot that will take us to the top floor.

Then I cradle the curve of her jaw with my palm, pressing my thumb against her chin so I can kiss her. I take it slow, brushing my lips lightly across hers. And electrical attraction ignites between us, making my temperature rise.

Quinn’s lips part, her breath feathering across my face, and I lightly trace the seam of her lips with the tip of my tongue. That seems to ignite a fire inside her, and Quinn throws her arms around my neck, bringing our lips together in a blazing kiss.

I groan, leaning into her and pinning her to the wall with my hips.

“You know what I just realized?” I rasp, letting my hands roam freely up the curves of her waist so I can feel the perfect swell of her breasts.

“What?” she murmurs, her eyes wide with innocent curiosity.

“I get nine whole months of coming inside of you without a condom.”

Quinn gives a sultry moan, her fingers combing into my hair and sending tingles along my scalp. “Lance Knight, you’re not wearing a condom with me ever again in your life,” she promises.

And I snarl at the thought of that. “Then I intend to keep you full of my cum until you’re dripping on the regular.”

“God, you turn me on,” she moans, jumping up to wrap her legs around my hips.

The elevator doors open a moment later, and we’re lucky we made it to the top floor without anyone joining us, because I’m not sure I would have stopped—even if they had. For all the times I’ve been with Quinn, I don’t know that I’ve ever needed her this badly.

One week without her feels like an eternity. And though I dreamed about her every night, my subconscious just can’t stack up to the real deal.

QUINN

I’ve only been to Lance’s apartment once or twice in the past, and then, only briefly while I was here with Killian. But I can barely spare the gorgeous penthouse a glance as he carries me straight to his bedroom.

His lips only leave mine in order to trail kisses down my neck, and I groan when he sucks the skin over my clavicle into his mouth with bruising force.

“Are you trying to give me a hickey?” I gasp, my nipples hardening to stiff points at the blissful sensation.

“I intend tokeepyou well-marked so no man will dare think you’re anything but taken,” he assures me darkly.

I laugh softly, loving this possessive side of him even if it’s entirely unnecessary. “Don’t you think the ring will do that?” I ask, extending my hand behind his back so I can get another good look at it. It’s striking, really. More beautiful than any ring I might have thought to pick out for myself. And somehow, it feels so perfect—just like Lance is for me.

“A hickey and the ring would be an even clearer statement,” he growls, moving down a little further to suck another circle of skin into his mouth.

And if he keeps that up, I think I might just come in my panties. It’s only been a week, and yet I’ve never felt so starved for pleasure. I’ve gotten used to just how often Lance makes me come. And without him, everything just feels…vanilla.

“You taste so damn good,” he rasps, and I gasp as my back finds the solid wood of a door he pins me against.

Again, he grinds forward against me, reminding me how big and hard he is, how ready he is to be inside me. He turns the door handle, and as the barrier swings wide, he carries me into a beautiful spacious room that’s nearly twice the size of mine.
