She realized, however, it was time to hire more people to help at the store. Not only because of the Colton situation and the fact that she couldn’t always be there right now, but because she deserved some time off. She’d been handling things by herself for a year, with only Kelsey part-time to help out. So that was on her definite to-do list and ASAP.
Jason had been so quiet, even on the elevator ride up to his apartment, that it took her by surprise when, after they entered the apartment, took off their jackets, and hung them in the closet, he spun her around, pulling her against him.
“I need you,” he said, and she had no intention of denying him. Not after how he’d bared his soul to her earlier, helping her to understand everything about him.
She kicked off her shoes and socks, lifted her hands and unbuttoned each button, letting her shirt drop to the floor. His heated stare fell to her full breasts, and as he watched, she reached behind her and released the bra clasp, letting the straps fall down her arms. Cool air rushed over her nipples, hardening them into tight peaks.
Feeling his gaze hot on hers, she unbuttoned her trousers, releasing them as well. She kicked the pants aside.
Jason’s eyes darkened with need. “Go on.”
She swallowed hard. Hooking her fingers into her panties, she pulled them down and off, leaving her standing in the entryway of his apartment naked. She stared at him. His hooded gaze, the flush in his cheeks peeking over the scruff on his face, and the fact that he was fully dressed all worked to arouse her unbearably. Dampness slickened between her thighs and her sex throbbed with desire. But she was well aware that this was Jason’s show, his pace, his pain that he needed to work out.
As she stood bared to him, he removed his shoes. His socks, shirt, and slacks along with his boxer briefs came next, tossed onto the pile of her clothes. His erection stood prominently against his belly, the sight causing a throbbing in her core.
She licked her lips and his eyes darkened at the sight.
Slowly, she stepped closer to him, her gaze never leaving his, then she lowered herself to her knees.
“Faith,” he said, a harsh warning in his tone.
She looked up at him through her lashes and smiled. “Yes?”
“Fuck,” he said, his hand coming to rest on her head.
He needed this, that much she knew, and if she could make him forget his troubles for a little while, that’s what she wanted to do. Because she was coming to care deeply for this dark knight of hers.
She wrapped her hand around his stiffness, gliding her palm over the velvety yet rigid length. Dipping her head, she licked the salty white coating off the head and he groaned, his fingers tightening in her hair. The tug was arousing, turning her on, but not as much as being on her knees and giving him pleasure. And that was her goal.
With her hand on the base of his shaft, she opened her mouth and glided her lips down his cock. His big body shuddered and she grew heady with the knowledge that she affected him. Pulling him inside her mouth, she slicked her tongue over and under his thick member. She drew him deep until the head of his cock hit the back of her throat. Forcing herself to relax, she swallowed over him, managing not to choke, and he yanked harder on her hair.
She groaned around him as he began to rock his hips back and forth, thrusting his cock into her mouth, using her to take what he needed. With her hands now braced on his thighs, she let him take over. He pumped himself in and out, and she sucked him harder, causing a warning tap on her head.
“I’m going to come,” he said gruffly, clearly expecting her to release him, but she had other plans.
She hummed around him and urged him to continue. He thrust once, twice, and came with a grunt, streaming down her throat, and she swallowed over and over until he relaxed, sliding out of her mouth.
“Shit, sweetness, I wanted that to be inside you.”
“It was,” she said with a pleased chuckle. He helped her to her feet and, taking her off guard, lifted her into his arms. She squeaked in surprise and wrapped her arms around his neck, as he carried her into his bedroom.
No sooner had he deposited her on the bed than he spread her thighs and came down over her, his face level with her sex, and began to lick, suck, and devour her like a starving man. At the first slide of his tongue, she moaned, suddenly aware of how very aroused she already was.
