Carrying the bag he had grabbed from his trunk on the way by, Dex disappeared into the bathroom.
Sitting down at her computer, Tyler scrolled through her requests for estimates, looking for one from the other container terminal.When she found none, she sent out a few more feelers looking for any work.
Hearing the shower shut off, she closed down her computer.It had at least kept her mind off of the tall, gorgeous, wet man in the shower.
“Sorry, I tried to hurry.”Tyler stood in a stupor, taking in every inch of Dex.He had pushed open the bathroom door, stepping out as a puff of steam followed him.Her mouth watered as she took in his jeans.That was it, he just had on a clean pair of jeans, nothing more.
“I can finish dressing out here, so you can have the bathroom.”With a nod, Tyler stumbled into the bathroom.She needed to get her crap together, she wasn’t twenty anymore, she was thirty-four for Christ’s sakes.She shouldn’t fall completely apart over some guy with defined obliques.
Turning the water on as hot as she could stand it, she sighed when it hit her tired muscles.Mentally shaking her head, she worked on the problem that was the sexy FBI agent currently sitting in her living room half dressed.
As she saw it, she had two choices.She knew they might have to work together for weeks before they got into the computer systems in the remaining terminals.That meant she would be working with Agent Dexter Tanaka every day for the foreseeable future.She could spend the whole time lusting after him, but never making it past this awkward dance they seemed to be in.
Her second option, the one she liked much better the longer she considered it, was to say screw it to convention and fuck him.One good roll should help get it out of their systems.That’s how she had always treated an infatuation in the past.Usually once you satisfy that itch, he doesn’t have such a draw anymore.
With her mind made up, she turned off the water, grabbing her towel from the bar next to the shower.Quickly wringing as much water out of her long hair as she could with the towel, she wrapped it around her.Working to tame her mane with her fingers, she took one last look in the mirror.Well, here goes nothing.
Dex was checking his messages on his phone when Tyler walked out with nothing more than a towel on.He had managed to pull on a clean T-shirt, but still hadn’t hunted down the extra socks he had packed.
Watching her walk toward him with a determined look on her face, he dropped his phone on the table next to him.Never in his wildest fantasies did he think someone as stunning as Tyler would pull him down by the back of his neck until their lips met.
Running his hands into her damp hair, he angled her head, deepening their kiss.Opening for him when he ran his tongue along her bottom lip, she let out a small gasp as he plunged into her.She had just guaranteed he wasn’t coming to his senses anytime soon.
Without coming up for air, Tyler hooked a long smooth leg around his waist, leaving nothing between them but his jeans.Dex could swear he could feel her heat working him into a frenzy when he grabbed her ass with both hands, picking her up around his waist.
In a few short strides, he had them in her bedroom without ever removing his lips from hers.Tossing her on her bed, he took a moment to catch his breath, gazing down at her.The towel had come unwrapped from her body, exposing all of her to him.
With a swift movement, he reached behind his back, pulling his shirt over his head with one hand.Tossing it next to the bed, he took in the gorgeous redhead laying before him again.
“My God, you’re beautiful,” Dex growled with reverence.“Are you sure you want to do this?”
“Do you not want to?I understand after what happened today if you don’t,” she said, sitting up on her elbows.Did she actually question his desire for her?He knew he wasn’t that good at dropping sexual hints, but he hadn’t realized he was that bad at it.
“You mean saving me from the near-death experience like some superwoman?”
She nodded, trying to hide the disappointment in her eyes.Had other men in the past treated her like some freak instead of the amazing woman she was?
Shaking his head, he looked at her.It was their loss, but he wasn’t that stupid.“That was the hottest fucking thing I’ve ever seen.”Maybe that made him the freak, but he didn’t care.The woman had an amazing gift.One that set his body on fire.
With a wicked grin, Tyler crooked a finger at him to draw him closer.Even though he was almost positive that this was some kind of play to fuck him out of her system, he complied by shoving his jeans down his legs.In only his boxer briefs, he kneeled at the end of the bed, pulling her legs to him until she was on the edge of the bed.
He had spent the entire day trying to put her body out of his mind without much luck.Now he couldn’t wait any longer to make it squirm under him as he brought her to climax.
There was a moment he thought she was going to protest when he shoved her thighs apart, kissing his way up her perfectly defined legs.Her concern turned into a deep moan when his tongue swept up her heat the first time, making a lazy circle around her clit.This wasn’t something he had done a lot, but then he had never had Tyler’s legs wrapped around his head before as she moaned for more.
Dex used the same tactics at bringing Tyler to climax that he did working a case.He tried different methods until he found the clues he needed, then pursued them until he had closed in.
For instance, he learned by her moans that she liked it more when he played with her clit in hard strokes than when he sucked on it.He discovered fucking her with his tongue would elicit her chanting his name while pulling on his hair.So when he slid two fingers deep inside while working her clit with his tongue, it only took a moment for her to clamp her thighs around his ears as she arched off the bed with a scream.
“Are you okay?”he asked when she had finally turned loose of his head.Standing, he helped her move back up the bed until she lay with her head on her pillow, breathing hard.
“Yeah.I’ve never screamed before.Holy fuck, what else can you make me do?I didn’t hurt you, did I?”He grinned as he watched her pulse pound in her neck.
“Without a condom, that might be my best.You caught me by surprise.It’s not every day I find a sexy redhead wrapped around me.”
“Why, Mr.Boy Scout, are you telling me you aren’t always prepared?”
“Not even a little, ma’am, and I was an Eagle Scout for your information,” he answered with a smirk.
