She waved her hand. “Never mind.” Her voice was sultry and full oflust.

“Sorry. I didn’t hearyou.”

How did she expect me to give her a coherent answer when she was now in the middle of removing her bra from underneath the button-up shirt? One hand snaked inside her sleeve, caught the strap, and pulled it through; then she repeated the motion with the other strap until she could remove the bra through hercollar.

That was the sexiest thing I’d ever seen in my life. Two naturally standing breasts curved underneath the shirt, and I wondered whether I could get any harder. As she stood there with nothing on but that shirt, I couldn’t believe how lucky I was. One day, once she healed and was ready, it would be my honor to give her the child and family she’d alwayswanted.

“It’s just that you’re making it a little difficult to concentrate. The past follows us, Kate, and we can’t escape it; but I can assure you that the only part of my past I love, isyou.”

She bit her lip and then lickedit.

“Kate, what are youdoing?”

“I thought my intentions were clear when I took my pants off, but I guess they weren’t clear enough,” she teased, and hooked her fingers into her panties. She removed them in slow motion, and when they were at her ankles, flicked them away with the tip of her toe. They flew onto the counter by the sink, but Kate lost her balance and I caught her just before she fell back into the tub full ofsuds.

“Got ya.” I held her in my arms. One of her free breasts pressed against my chest and the other one against my arm, and I was sure I didn’t have enough patience to control the situation much longer. “And what may your intentionsbe?”

“To take a bubblebath?”

“You don’t seem to be sure aboutthat.”

“Shut up and kissme.”

I lowered my mouth to hers at the request. She was soft and tasted like the best fucking thing that had ever touched my lips. I cupped her face between my hands and pressed harder against her, savoring all the tiny noises and pleas that came out of her mouth. She not only tasted delicious but also smelled like a fond memory. It did something crazy in my head, something I couldn’t understand. I swept my tongue against hers, back and forth, all the while feeling my dick grow in my pants. The confinement of my clothes was becoming more uncomfortable by the minute. I clasped my lips around her upper one, sucking onit.

I was ready to lift her into my arms and sit her on the bath counter so we could take this further when something crashed downstairs. We both jumped, our attention flying toward the door. Kate grasped my arm, squeezing it. Her heart was beating so fast that I could see its rhythm underneath hershirt.

The wind howled outside, and heavy drops of rain assaulted theroof.

“You stay here,” I whispered. “Do not move,Kate.”

“What if it’s him?” Her eyes were wide and full offear.

“Impossible.”

I knew I wasn’t convincing anyone withthattone of voice, but there was no way Cortez could have found us. I touched my finger to my lips and tiptoed toward the door, grabbing the first thing that was on the counter near theedge.

I crept down the stairs through the darkness, listening for any kind of sound. With the amount of rain we were getting, it was almost impossible to hear myself think. Bracing my back against the wall, I closed my eyes and dug deep inside, trusting my instincts, and then opened them again. As soon as my foot touched one of Kate’s crutches at the bottom of the staircase, I realized I’d found the culprit of our scare. Both canes were on thefloor.

“What were you going to do with that?” Kate asked from the staircase, pointing to my raised hand – which was holding a box ofcondoms.

“You can’t go wrong when you shield yourdong?”

She burst out in laughter. Well, at least one of us waslaughing.

“I thought I asked you to stay upstairs,” Isaid.

“And I’m never leaving you to fight mybattles.”

“They’re not yourbattles.”

“Ours?”

“Yes,ours.”

I lowered my hand and watched her saunter down the last few steps. The shirt’s hem shifted to the left and right as she walked toward my guiding flashlight, offering me a glimpse of her crotch, and my gaze focused on those tempting thighs. She didn’t stop until she was standing right in front of me. I felt her deep breaths on my face and against mychest.

“Kate.”
