Her heart skipped a beat when she saw him and her breath caught in herthroat.
She wanted to stop looking but her heart wouldn’t allow herto.
He looked just as good as she remembered, standing tall and proud with that spikey dark hair and those chiseled, god-likefeatures.
It must have been the intense stare she gave him that made him look in her direction. When he looked he stopped midstride and stared back. The harshness in his features changed, softening, as did hiseyes.
A few seconds of pure magic passed in the space between them where she got lost within his gaze, and she almost forgot that he wasn’t hersanymore.
But then, he neverwas.
Never… But he’d said always. She remembered that, and it pained her soul that it was alie.
Mia grabbed her purse and rushed to the back entrance in the oppositedirection.
The tears were already streaming down her cheeks, coming at a rapid speed that made her feel so overwhelmed she took several breathsin.
He caught up to her and took hold of her arm just as she stepped outside and into the parkinglot.
She opened her mouth to speak, to say something, anything, but whatever senseless babble her brain was about to concoct drowned away as he pulled her right up to him, smoothed his hand across her cheek and pressed his lips tohers.
The impact sent a shockwave throughout her system, stunning every nerve in her body. She couldn’t think past the kiss, and the how, what, and why questions she had floating in her mind blasted into thenetherworld.
Mia responded to the kiss, giving him the same wild need he showed her. She didn’t even care that they were in the middle of the parking lot where people passing by could see them. She just kissed him, absorbing and savoring him, giving her body what it hadmissed.
She sucked in a breath as he pulled away from her and took hold of her hand to usher her to hiscar.
Once they got in, he drove. She didn’t ask any question on where they were going and didn’t have to wonder for long as he pulled up in the back of an alleyway. The darkness of night made it creepy, and definitely not somewhere she would have ventured to atnight.
She didn’t need to ask any questions or waste time to find out why they’d parked here. She moved over to him even before he took hold of her again, and within seconds they were tearing away at each other’s clothes in a wild, sexualfrenzy.
She was completely naked within seconds because she’d worn a little summerdress.
He’d taken off his jacket and shirt and she moved back a little so he could roll his jeans down his legs. She watched him with delight, feeling even more excited when she saw the hard length of hiscock.
He pulled her back to straddle him and he slipped inside her, ready togo.
He held her and started, pumping slowly at first in a slow, grinding movement, but then the pace quickened and she lost hermind.
She gripped onto his shoulders, holding on as he bounced her up and down, pounding into her with a desperate need that she felt. Mia didn’t allow him to do all the work. She moved, too, riding the desperate wave of passion and pure ecstasy that took themboth.
The orgasm that gripped her took him, too, and she screamed against it, still holding onto him as the hot release exploded from him. They both came, crying out as the pleasure surged withinthem.
She held onto him, refusing to let go, but he held her, too, as if he felt thesame.
“Come with me,” he whispered into her ear, pressing his head to hers. “Come with me,baby.”
“Yes,” sheagreed.

Passion claimedthem again when they got to his apartment. She was only able to take note of two things as she entered. The first was the location and that it was tastefully decorated. Also, that it smelled likehim.
It had the same woodland fragrance she loved from hiscologne.
He took her straight to bed where he made love to her throughout the night. There were no words, no questions, just raw emotion she felt deep in her soul that was so strong it consumed her entirebeing.
Mia was lost in him, so lost in him she didn’t want to find her way back to the place where she was withouthim.
