CHLOE

The kiss was urgent and passionate. His lips were soft and warm, and he kissed me like it was all he’d been waiting to do.

His lips pressed against mine gently, pulling and probing until I let out a soft, needy moan. He slipped his tongue into my mouth as my lips parted and my knees weakened. I wrapped my fingers around his neck and angled my head as I opened my mouth deeply, letting him in.

My heart was beating rapidly, and I couldn’t think. All my senses were flooded with Sean. He was all I could taste, see, and think of. And as heat bloomed low in my body, I knew it still wasn’t enough.

This was definitely a bad idea, but I’d deal with the consequences later. Tonight, I simply wanted to let myself be a fool for him.

He pulled me closer, his hand moving to cup my face roughly.

He was anything but gentle. He was every bit the possessive man I’d asked him to be. His grip on my face was a bit painful, and he pressed my back against the door like he was afraid I’descape if he let go. I was not escaping from him. There was nothing more I wanted to do than assure him of that.

I could feel his cock hardening in his pants. When I reached out to palm him, he groaned so helplessly, and I loved it.

This time, I wanted all of him bared to all of me. All of him to touch and feel.

“Come in,” I gasped as the kiss spiraled out of control and his lips trailed a hot path down my neck.

I unlocked the door, fumbling with the key for only a moment.

“We’re alone,” I said, flinging my handbag on the couch as Sean closed the door behind me and strode over.

“Good, because I’ve wanted to do this for far too long,” he said, picking me up.

I wrapped my legs around his waist, kissing intensely, pressing hot, firm lips upon his as I pointed to my room.

When he walked to my room, he dropped me on my bed and stood at the foot, taking me in. I noticed that the wounded look in him was fighting to regain control.

I knelt on the bed in front of him, my hands going for his tie. He kept his intense gaze on my face while my hands undid the knot. He wasn’t going to forget about my comment about me feeling nothing special for him.

“You don’t need to pretend to be Will for me to do this,” I said, pulling his tie off. “I don’t need to convince Henry that I felt nothing for the man I was with today,” I said, taking his jacket off. It fell to the ground next to his tie.

His hand was stroking the side of my neck, eyes half closed while I undid his buttons slowly. I leaned in to trail kisses on his newly exposed chest. He was all hard muscle with a smattering of dark chest hair and warm skin.

“In fact,” I breathed out, “I am so turned on by you that I feel like I’ll explode from always being close enough, but not with you.”

He uttered a short laugh, his fingers raking through my hair as he pulled my head back and looked at me clearly. “Chloe, you have no idea how turned on I’ve been by you all night.”

My hand trailed down his chest to his pants, where I traced his hard length. As I stroked him, he groaned at the touch, leaning into me, his head coming to rest on my shoulder.

“You’ll be the death of me, Chloe,” he muttered, his breath coming rapidly as I unzipped his pants and pulled them down.

I wrapped my hands around his back, pulling him to me while he stepped out of his pants. “Well, I’ll be gentle about it, sweetheart.”

SEAN

Chloe kissed me back, urgently tugging me closer as we fell into bed together. Her mouth was soft, and her lips parted easily, deepening the kiss. Tendrils of her hair escaped from her updo and framed her beautiful face. My desire for her overwhelmed me. Her and her alone. No other woman came close.

I felt heady with lust as my hands encircled her waist, pulling her as close to me as possible. Her chest was flush against mine, sending sparks through my body. With her, I’d felt more alive in the past month than I’d felt since my teenage years.

I put my arms under her butt and lifted her on top of me.

“There is no way I could feel nothing for you, Sean,” she said, cradling my face in her hands. Her cheeks were flushed, and her expression was vulnerable, like she thought I could hurt her with this knowledge.
