“I’m going to move in a sec,” I murmured.

“It’s okay.” Her voice was soft. “I like it.”

My heart squeezed. Sadie was underneath me, and she had come all over my mouth in a fucking glorious display before stroking my soul out of my cock.

I heaved in one last breath before I sat up. She watched, and the unfocused desire had faded from her eyes, replaced by something guarded and careful.

“I’m going to grab a towel.” I dropped a quick kiss to her mouth and she blinked in surprise.

After I had returned from the bathroom and cleaned us up, I climbed into her bed, ignoring her confused frown while I pulled her to my chest. I closed my eyes and inhaled her. Fuck, this felt so good. She was so soft and she smelled amazing. I’d never been this relaxed.

“Um, excuse me.” She poked me and I fought a grin.

“Go to sleep, honey.”

“You’re not sleeping here.”

“I can’t walk after what you just did,” I murmured, tucking her into my chest. My chin came to the top of her head.

She inhaled me and sighed into my chest before she sat up. Her eyelids drooped with sleepiness but she wore a little smile. Awell-fuckedsmile, I noticed with a pulse of pride in my chest.

“No sleepovers,” she said with raised eyebrows. “Your future wife won’t like it.”

Hesitation twisted in my chest. “Seriously?”

“Seriously. We shouldn’t.” She gave me a teasing look. “I don’t need your boner poking me in the morning.”

A laugh burst out of my chest. “Jesus. Okay, okay.” I leaned over and dropped another kiss on her mouth. I meant to be quick but I lingered, nipping her bottom lip. She sighed and kissed me back before she pulled away with a grin.

“Go.”

I didn’t want to leave, but I knew staying was too much for her. I slid out of bed and pulled my shirt over my head. Her gaze lingered on my body, heat flickering in her eyes and a slow grin curling on her mouth.

“Enjoying the view?” I asked.

She wrinkled her nose as I did up my fly. “Not really, you’re going the wrong way.”

I grinned at her and leaned over, bracing my hands on the head board as I gazed down at her. “Goodnight.”

“‘Night,” she whispered, sinking back into the pillows.

“I’ll lock up.”

She gazed up at me with a nod and my heart flipped over. I dropped one last kiss onto her mouth.

Five minutes later, as I drove home, my mind flashed with image after image of her naked, coming on my mouth and fingers. I could still feel her skin under my hands, hear her gasps of pleasure as I wound her tighter.

I didn’t even care that she kicked me out. I’d take what I could get from Sadie Waters.

Sadie

I wokeup the next morning to my phone buzzing on the bedside table.

“Good morning,” I answered in a raspy voice, squinting in the morning light.

“Oh, no.” Willa sighed. “I forgot about the time difference. Sorry about that.”
