Chapter Eight

Presley sat on the sofa and stared at the TV. She wished she’d never come here. Never seen Jaxon Callahan again. It had been only an infatuation when she’d seen him two years ago, and now it was turning into more. How can a person fall in love in a week? A tear slipped down her cheek as she thought about leaving him, but she couldn’t stay away from him. She knew that if he called her right now, she’d go to him.

Reclining on the sofa, she wondered if he was still at the dance or if he’d left. He’d surprised her when he’d asked her to dance. She knew he didn’t make a habit of that with the guests. It had felt so good to be in his arms. Placing her hand over her mouth, she did all she could to hold a rising sob back. She jerked when someone knocked at her door. Sitting up, she wiped the tears away as she stared at the door. Who would be at her door this late? Maybe it was Bett. Pushing herself up, she slowly walked toward the door and jumped back when whoever it was pounded on the door again. Then she practically ran to it when she heard Jaxon’s voice.

“Presley? It’s me, Jaxon.”

She opened the door, and they stared at each other.

“Ask me in, please,” he said in a low tone of voice.

Swinging the door open, she nodded. He strode in, and she closed the door behind him, leaned back against it, and stared at him.

“What are you doing here, Jaxon?”

Reaching her in two strides, he pulled her into his arms then took her lips in a deep, hard kiss. She moaned when his tongue touched hers. He raised his head.

“I told you I can’t stay away from you.”

“Then take me to bed, cowboy,” she murmured against his lips and felt him smile.

“Whatever you say, darlin’.” He picked her up and tossed her over his shoulder, making her squeal with laughter. She ran her hands down his back to his ass in his tight jeans.

“You have a fantastic ass. Cowboy butts drive me nuts.” She laughed when he growled and ran his hand along her leg, under her dress and then to her ass.

When he reached the bedroom, he placed her across the bed, put his hands on either side of her head, and held himself above her then leaned down and kissed her. With a wicked grin, he moved his hands over her breasts and down to the hem of her dressand pushed it above her waist. He groaned when he saw her blue lace bikini panties.

“I’m so glad you didn’t tell me what was under this pretty dress. I would have had trouble walking.”

She laughed then gasped when he leaned down and kissed her stomach then hooked his fingers into her panties and pulled them down. He tossed them across the room and pulled her boots and socks off. As he locked his eyes with hers, he moved his finger between her slit and moved it up and down, rubbing his knuckle against her clitoris.

“Jaxon—” Her plea ended on a groan.

“You’re wet, darlin’.” He removed his finger from her and put it in his mouth. “Do you have any idea how good you taste?”

“Jaxon, please.” She moaned and grabbed fistfuls of the bedspread. He could drive her insane.

“I will please you. In more ways than one,” he said as he dropped to his knees between her legs and pulled her to the edge.

A groan tore from her when his tongue touched her clitoris. His tongue moved through her curls as he licked her. When he rubbed his teeth against her, she reached down and fisted her hands in his hair. He inched a finger inside her as he continued to suck on her. She pulled on his hair as her belly started to flutter, and her orgasm hit herhard, making her scream out. As she lay there trying to catch her breath, she looked through her lashes to watch him as he stood and unzipped his jeans. His hard cock jutted out as he took a condom from his wallet and rolled it on. Then he pulled her legs around his waist and thrust into her. Tightening her legs around him, she lifted her hips in time with his thrusts. He was taking her there again so quickly. She groaned and pulled at his arms. He leaned down over her and kissed her, mating his tongue with hers. She moaned in his mouth as she came again. Jaxon stiffened then growled low in his throat as he throbbed inside of her then he collapsed on top of her.

After a few minutes, he pushed himself up and entered her bathroom. He came back out, zipping his jeans and snapping them. She took deep breaths then pushed herself up on her elbows. She looked up at him and narrowed her eyes.

“What?”

“You didn’t even take your jeans off, Callahan.”

Jaxon laughed and winked at her. “You didn’t take your dress off, either.”

Heat poured into her cheeks as she pushed the dress down from her waist.

“Just whatdidyou do with my panties?”

He glanced around. “I tossed them somewhere. Trust me, I didn’t think of making sure where they landed. I just wanted them off you.” He put his hand out to her, and she placed hers in his and pulled her up then kissed her.

“Can you stay with me tonight?”

“No, but you can come to my place if you’d like.”
