The light flush rose up and stained her cheeks.
“Thank you. Think you can even things up?” She reached out and began to unbutton the rest of his shirt, parting the sides and slipping it off his shoulders.
It caught on the cufflinks. He grinned and held out one hand for her to free his wrist, then the other. Then, he wasted no time undoing his pants and removing them along with his underwear and socks. His dick stood at attention, throbbing with need.
“Looks like we’re uneven again,” he said, his gaze on her soft mounds of flesh protruding over the white lace bra.
Her dark eyes never left his as she reached around her back and undid the clasp, letting it drop to the floor. The act revealed full breasts and dusky-colored nipples, and his mouth watered at the sight. She hooked her thumbs in her skimpy panties and pulled them off, tossing them onto the pile of discarded clothes.
“Even,” she said, wrapping her arms around his neck and bringing their naked bodies in close contact.
His hard cock rubbed against her soft skin and he groaned at the feel of her feminine flesh.
“Play time’s over,” he stated, and lifted her fireman style over his shoulder, grinning as she shrieked and laughed at the same time.
Unable to resist, he gave her luscious ass a light slap. Instead of yelling in outrage, her silence was followed by a long, pleasure-filled moan.
He picked up his pace and deposited her on the mattress in the center of the bed. Placing one knee beside her, he intended to join her, when he paused, reality hitting him.
“Shit. We need protection,” he said, grinding his teeth at the thought of not feeling her wet, tight heat around his.
“I have an IUD,” she said, their gazes meeting. “And I had every test under the sun before I left for the dig. There’s been no one since.”
“Good to know,” he said, his voice tinged with the same relief flowing through him. When it came to this woman, he was discovering he had a caveman side. One that wanted everything she was willing to give. As much as she’d let him explore and get to know her better, he was all in.
Wait.
What?
This is a one-night stand, he reminded himself. The truth was, he had no time for a relationship and even if he did, she lived across continents. Their worlds had crossed for this short period of time only. Besides, when he was younger he’d tried dating and not one woman had the patience for the hours he put in at work.
A small voice asked if that was because maybe he’d never found the right woman. No. He shook his head and caught her curious expression, her nose crinkling as she obviously waited for him to give his status on protection.
Instead, he’d gotten lost in crazy daydreams.
He cleared his throat and his mind of anything other than the current situation. “After my father’s heart attack, common sense made me get a physical. The whole nine yards,” he told her. “I’m clean. And yeah. As I said, I have no time for a social life.” It’d been longer than he cared to admit since the last time he’d had sex with any woman.
Charlotte’s eyes darkened at his words. “So we can still…?”
The question trailed off and knowing what she’d been thinking, he nodded. “We can. Which means the time for talking is over.” Grasping his erection, he pumped with his hand, his palm grazing from root to tip, and he grit his teeth at the desire coursing through him.
Joining her on the bed, he leveraged his body over hers, kissing her once more. After taking time with her mouth, he moved down her body, licking, kissing, and tasting until he reached her center, swiping his tongue through her pussy, finding her wet for him. His dick gave a hard pulse of need and at the same time he exhaled a low groan, she let out a shuddering moan. He could play some more but they were both on the edge.
He kissed her belly once, then twice, before sitting up, gripping his cock and lining himself up at her entrance. Their eyes met as he pushed inside her for the first time. Pumping his hips in short bursts, he eased his way into her, making sure she was slick and ready.
She was wet with need but he was thick and she needed priming. He took his time, watching her face, making him aware of her increasing pleasure. Three more passes in and he bottomed out deep, her body accepting all of him.
“Jared, I feel you everywhere,” she murmured, squeezing her core muscles tighter around him.
“That’s the point.” Unable to hold back, he lifted his hips and slammed deep once more.
“Oh God!” Her eyes glittered with desire and he complied, slamming into her, pressing her deeper into the mattress.
Her breath came in short pants and he feared he’d come too quickly.
“More.” She continued to beg for him to thrust harder and deeper and he was only too happy to oblige.
He had another trick up his sleeve and he slid his hand between them, stroking her clit back and forth until she lost any sense of rhythm.
