Eddie waved me to his table, and he corralled Janie over, but the only seat was next to me. I helped her push her chair in, and when I went to sit, she grabbed my hand.
Heat shot up my arm, and I looked down at it, then at her. She smiled at me but nodded to sit, so I did.
The next hour, we ate, enjoyed some wine with our hearty Italian feast, and had a great conversation. After dessert was served, I ordered a rideshare.
I leaned into Janie. “I ordered my ride. Would you like to share it with me?”
“I’d love that.”
Chapter 23
Janie
We grabbed our coats and said our goodbyes to everyone at the party, and I hugged Eddie and his wife.
“Oh dear, don’t get misty eyed yet. You still have to put up with me until the end of the year as we transition,” Eddie said.
I fought back tears anyway, knowing it wouldn’t be long before I wouldn’t see him every day anymore. Odin shook hands with them then we both headed outside since the car was waiting.
He opened the door, and I got in, then he went around and climbed inside. “So, where to?”
“That depends. You said in your message you wanted to tell me something. What was it?”
He squirmed a bit, and the driver watched us from the rearview. “I figured we could have that conversation in private.”
“Odin, the whole office knows we’ve been sleeping together. I’m not concerned with the anonymous driver knowing our business. What did you want to tell me?” I needed to know before I knew if I was going home or to his place.
He turned in his seat and grabbed my hand. “Janie, I know this has all been a whirlwind and a shit show tied together. But the last couple of days only solidified what I already knew. I love you. And I don’t want to lose you. I can’t lose you. So, I will do whatever it takes to win you back and keep you.”
I didn’t fight the tears that formed in my eyes. Instead, I let them fall freely and scooted to the middle seat, and buckled in, tucking myself under his arm. “To your place.”
The door hardly clicked shut before we tore clothes from each other.
“Janie, you feel so good. I worried I’d never touch you again,” he mumbled against my neck as he planted warm kisses there up to my mouth.
I furiously unbuttoned his shirt as he worked his pants off. My dress was simple to come off, and by the time we stumbled to the bed I had unhooked my bra and let it fall. He pulled my panties down before pressing between my legs and hungrily feasting.
His tongue dragging through my folds up to my clit sent a hot flush over my skin, but I wanted his weight on me. “Odin, I need you inside me.”
He lapped several more times then took one good suck at my clit before climbing over me like an animal about to claim his prey. He took each nipple in his mouth briefly, working my clit with his fingers as he did.
My back arched to him. “Odin, please.”
He kissed the rest of the way to my mouth again, taking a deep kiss as I wrapped my legs around him. He rubbed his hard shaft through my folds, but I tilted my hips at just the right moment, and he drove into me instead.
We both gasped, and he stopped his hips but kept kissing me hard. I tried to move mine, but he stopped me. “Let me just feel you for a second. I missed being inside you so much it hurt, Janie.”
I ran my hand over his cheek. “I missed you, Odin. I’m sorry I ran out. Everything just seemed too good to be true. And I wasn’t sure I deserved it.”
“You deserve everything, Janie. And I want to give it to you.”
Tears collected in the corners of my eyes. “I know. And that’s why I love you. Now fuck me senseless.”
“I love you so much.” He kissed me hard again, then grabbed my ass and thrusted over and over.
I rocked with him, grabbing his round ass as his muscles clenched with each stroke. He moved his hand between us and rubbed my clit. “I’m close, Janie. Come with me, baby.”
As he worked his thumb and thrusted, my channel contracted, and stars burst behind my eyes. “Odin, oh God!”
