She jerked back so fast her head slammed against the wall.

He frowned.“Hey, watch it.”He cradled the back of her head and rubbed gently where she’d banged it.

“Your doctor’s?Why?Are you sick?”She couldn’t disguise the slight panic in her voice.God, what was wrong with her?Three days ago, this man had been an enigma on a piece of paper, as far out of her reach as the stars were to humanity.Now all of a sudden, the thought that he could be suffering made her heart lurch alarmingly.

“No, I’m not sick.I can confirm that with one hundred percent certainty because I went to get some blood work done.”His grey eyes held an extreme intensity, much more than usual, that made her heart skip several beats.

“Why would you need blood work done?”

“Because, while I don’t mind using condoms and will continue to do so if you wish, I wanted to prove to you that I was healthy.Even before we touched, I knew you had the power to shred my control with the minimum of effort, Peaches.”

She sucked in a breath.“I… do?”

“Yes.And that message has been confirmed a hundred-fold since we fucked.Are you on birth control?”he asked.

She nodded.“Quarterly shots to regulate my period.My latest dose was three weeks ago.”

His gaze darkened and his mouth curved in a wicked smile.“Good.”He thrust the paper into her hand.“This is for you.”

With him this close, it took several minutes for her to read the health report.Zach was clean, a healthy, rampantly sexy male.

“You did this for me?”

“For us.I needed you to know that if I ever slip up and don’t use protection, you’ll never have to fear for your health.And also that we can indulge whenever we want without fearing any repercussions.”

The paper fluttered from her hand and landed on the floor, unheeded.“So you mean… we can… I can…” She licked her lips, unable to convey the depth of emotions coursing through her at the images, which bombarded her brain.

He caught her to him with a jerky, needy movement, as if having her so far away physically hurt him.His hands curved over her ass, pulled her into sharp contact with his body.His cock was hard.Dear Lord, when wasn’t his cock hard for her?

The knowledge sent yet another potent rush of powerful arousal through her.The idea that she, the woman whose boyfriend had dumped her for another man, could affect a guy as hot and sexually on top of his game as Zach, thrilled her and infused her with much needed confidence.

Leaning down, he bit on her earlobe.“It means you can have me whenever and wherever you want.Instant satisfaction.We don’t have to wait.All you have to do when the mood takes you is to hop on and ride.”

He laughed at the full-bodied shudder that went through her, and bit harder.

“Zach!”

He soothed the bite with his tongue.“Does that notion please you?Does it turn you on?Because that’s what I want.You, turned on for me, twenty-four seven.The idea of that blows my mind, baby.Does it blow yours?”

“You know it does.”

“Good.I’m glad.”He pulled back slightly and glanced down at her, his eyelids heavy with a dangerously erotic look.“Hey, I believe we’ve just had our first fight.”

“Hmm… I believe we have.”

“So can we now progress to the making up sex?”He grinned.

Her breath hitched.“Right here?”

He caught her hand from around his waist and placed it on his cock.Her fingers curled around him.His groan was immediate and so heartfelt, she grew even wetter.

“This is as good a time as any, Peaches.I’m dying for you.I crave you the moment I walk out of your presence.Imagining your tight little cunt wrapped around my dick can only keep me going up to a point.Then things start to unravel for me.”

Even as her insides melted at the thought of having him, hot and thick inside her, a part of her still dwelled on their conversation.

“Was she… Sadie… was she devastated that you ended things with her?”

Zach hesitated for a moment.“Yes, but it was the right thing to do.It was the only way I’d allow myself to be with you.”
