Then his mouth found her most sensitive spot, causing a strangled moan to escape from her throat.

His pace quickened as her body tensed up in anticipation of a climax. His fingers joined in the play, slipping two inside of her with no resistance. A few more strokes and flicks of his tongue pushed Kenzie over the edge; her body convulsing as a powerful orgasm took over.

Gage gave a smug grin at the sight of her coming undone because of him. But he wasn’t finished yet; not even close. He crawled back up and hovered over her trembling form, his eyes locked onto hers as one hand gripped his cock, thick and ready to go despite having just spilled himself down her throat a few minutes ago?

“Ready for my cock again?” His voice was husky with desire as he positioned himself at her entrance. Kenzie arched towards him as if begging for more, which was all the encouragement Gage needed.

Sliding into her was as close to coming home as he’d ever felt, and he wanted to experience a lifetime of this. He set a slow, torturous pace, intending to enjoy her for as long as he could. But she writhed beneath him and begged.

“More. I need more.”

The way she squeezed him as she squirmed and cried out, knocked all his plans for prolonging this out the window, and he braced himself against the mattress as he drove into her faster and harder.

She whimpered beneath him, bucking up and meeting his thrusts with her own. “Gage...” The way she called his name was enough to nearly send him over the edge.

He watched her beneath him, her eyes closed tightly, lips parted in gasps and moans of pleasure. Her nipple jewelry sparkling as they shifted with each thrust of his rigid cock.

The sight of her taking all of him was too much. His control was slipping; the primal need to claim her taking over. She cried out as he quickened his pace further, the sounds of their fucking filling the room. “Fuck, Kenzie...you’re so goddamn beautiful,” he groaned, his voice a low growl as her inner walls clenched around him. She was so close. He pinched one nipple, making her squeal, and the high-pitched sound was his undoing.

His control snapped, a ragged growl tearing from his throat as he slammed into her harder than ever. Kenzie’s body responded, and she spiraled into a climax so hard she gripped him like a vise. She gripped his arms, digging her fingers into his skin as she came. The look on her face sent his orgasm ripping through him in an intense surge. He stayed buried deep inside her as he spilled himself, their pleasure combining so that they rode the waves of ecstasy together.

The cleanup from their lovemaking was quiet, with Gage running a warm washcloth gently between her legs before she climbed out of bed and disappeared into the bathroom.

He stripped the duvet off the bed and tried to keep the reality of what they faced from creeping back in after the experience they’d just shared. But the thoughts were at the edges of his mind as he pulled the sheets back for her to climb between them when she returned.

As they laid in the dark together, she moved closer to him and laid her head on his chest.

“Are you sure you’re OK? Aside from what just happened, you’ve seemed distant since you came back from your meeting.”

He dragged a hand down her back. She was right. There were things he needed to tell her still, but he’d been putting it off. “I thought I couldn’t call it a meeting,” he teased, trying to keep things light.

But she was on a mission for answers, so his answer didn’t yield the giggle he’d been hoping for.

“We need to talk about your brother,” he admitted as he reached over and turned the bedside lamp back on.

“That doesn’t sound good. What haven’t you been telling me?”

He watched the bubble they’d been in for the past hour burst, and he dragged a hand down his face. There was no other choice but to answer her questions.

“The government is not happy with him. There are some in the NSA and CIA who want to charge him with obstruction of justice among other things, for blowing the operation the way he has.”

Her mouth dropped open. “After all, he’s done for this country? That’s fucking insane.”

Gage nodded grimly. “I don’t disagree. But these types of people tend to not care about your past good deeds if you fuck a major international operation.”

“But there’s no evidence that he’s fucked anything is there?”

He closed his eyes and pressed against them with his fingers, hoping to keep a tension headache at bay. “Not quite. But the fact that he stepped foot back in D.C. violated the agreement he made when he went undercover. It’s ugly, but it’s true. He never should have come after me like he did.”

“So why did you have to go to the White House to hear about that?”

“They want me to do an assessment of the situation and provide my unbiased opinion.”

Kenzie laughed. “That’s kind of impossible, isn’t it? The man has been your best friend for most of my life.”

“It’s more about the skills I possess. I’ve been analyzing other operatives since I retired. My training allows me to home in on what might compromise an otherwise good team member or figure out if they acted maliciously or just made a mistake. They want me to use my training, and in this case, they feel like my friendship with him will be an aid.”

“Are you going to do it?”
