Theincessantbeepingofher alarm dragged Selena from sleep.She reached for the clock and couldn’t roll toward it.There was something holding her still.By the time she remembered she wasn’t alone in bed, Sackett had loosened his hold.She turned off the alarm then rolled back toward him.
“I need to start coffee, then get in the shower.Are you in a hurry to get out of here?”
“I’ve got a little time, but I need to get ready.”
She glanced over at the clock.“I need to pull out no later than 8:30 in order to get to work on time.”
“Good.How about I start the coffee, then I’ll join you for a shower?”He grinned up at her for a moment, waiting for her answer.
“That sounds great.”She rolled out of bed and headed for the bathroom, glancing over her shoulder, hoping for a glimpse of Sackett before he pulled on his jeans.But to her surprise, he didn’t bother with pants, instead he rolled off the side of the bed she’d just gotten out of and headed into the kitchen.She found herself watching his ass until he disappeared into the kitchen.Once he was out of sight, she went into the bathroom, started the shower and let it warm up before stepping under the spray.
Selena stood facing the showerhead.She tipped her face back, letting the water flow over her face and down her body.She stood like that for several moments before turning around and repeated the same movements, tilting her head from side to side to make sure she’d gotten all her hair wet.When she heard the shower door open, she smiled, knowing it would be Sackett.
“That’s what I like to see.”The low rumble of his voice sent heat pooling low in her belly.
“What?”She opened her eyes to find him watching her, his erection standing tall between them.He moved close, pulling her into his arms and covering her mouth in a quick hard kiss.
“I’ve been dreaming about this all night,” he said, turning her so her back hit the wall, then dropping to his knees in front of her.Sackett draped one of her legs over his shoulder then ran his tongue the length of her slit.
“Perfect.”
Selena didn’t know what to say.Then, when Sackett buried his face between her legs, her ability to think fled.It was all she could do to stay upright as pleasure swamped her.She wanted to say something, to make some sound that let him know how she was feeling, because she knew he liked it, he’d demanded it before.But her throat seemed to freeze as her body clenched and waves of pleasure made her knees weak.Only Sackett’s hands on her kept her from falling.
She was still lost to the euphoria of her release when he set her foot gently back on the floor and stood.Without a word he spun her, so she faced the wall, tilted her hips, and plunged inside.He sank all the way into her in one swift thrust ripping a moan of pleasure from her throat.
“Sweet Jesus, you feel good.”His words vibrated through the haze still clouding her brain, sending bolts of heat through her body.One of his arms wrapped around her torso, the hand tripping her breast as he pumped in and out of her core.She lost track of time.All that mattered was what was happening right here.Right now.
Sackett’s other hand wrapped around her throat, not tight enough to restrict her breathing, but enough to focus her attention on his face hovering so close.
“Give me your mouth.”His words were barely more than a whisper, but more than loud enough.She turned and he captured her lips in a kiss that only served to push her over the edge into another blinding orgasm.A few strokes more and Sackett froze, groaning into the curve of her neck as he exploded inside her.
“God, sunshine,” his voice was muffled as he hadn’t yet moved his face, “I’m blown away by what you do to me.”
It took the two of them a couple of moments to recover.Sackett managed to be mobile before she did.He stepped away, making sure she was steady on her feet before adjusting the water temperature and guiding her back under the spray.
Selena was still mostly boneless as he manipulated her body around, then tilted her head back and started washing her hair, taking the time to massage her scalp with his fingertips before rinsing and repeating the process with her conditioner.While her conditioner worked, Sackett washed her body and his, then rinsed them both.
Stepping out of the shower, he wrapped her in a towel, taking the time to use a second to blot the worst of the water from her hair before grabbing another to wrap around his waist.
“What do you want for breakfast?”he asked as he finished rubbing her skin dry.
“I usually have coffee and toast.I don’t have the brain power to cook before I’ve had enough coffee, and usually not enough time to do more by the time I’ve gotten enough coffee and ready for work.”
“If that wasn’t an issue, what would you want?Assuming you have the stuff.I probably don’t have time for a store run.”
Her mind went blank.She stared at him for a moment, trying to think of something, anything.
“How does a breakfast burrito sound?”he asked after a moment.
She blinked as she thought about it.“Sounds great.”
“You get ready.I’ll make breakfast.”He kissed her forehead, then turned and went into the bedroom, leaving her staring after him.With a shake of her head, she looked at herself in the mirror, wondering how she’d gotten here and what would it be like to start every day like this.Pushing the thought away, she got busy.She needed to get ready for work, she had a lot to do today.

Inthekitchen,Sackettpoured coffee into two cups, then took one to her before coming back and pulling out the things he would need for breakfast.
He was scraping the filling into two tortillas when she came into the kitchen, an empty coffee cup in hand.He stood for a moment, watching her.The confidence she wore like a second skin as she wandered through the house in a bra and her skirt, her make-up done but her hair only half dry, made him want to pull her close and make them both late.
