She straddled his lap and pushed him back onto the mattress. Her let her kiss him for a while, building up the moment again, until they were both breathless, hips grinding together.

“I need you up here so I can taste you.” He lifted her by the hips, encouraging her to crawl upward. He kept moving her up his body until her knees were spread to either side of his face. Fuck, yes. One of his favorite views. Gorgeous pink folds, right there within easy reach. The scent of her was musky and primal, calling to some wild part of him deep in his chest.

“Hands on the headboard.” He saw her take hold of the top of the bed.

Two of his fingers spread her even wider. Then he shoved his tongue between her legs.

Her answering moan send thrills of pleasure to the base of his spine. He backed off a bit, kissing her inner thighs.

“Did I say you could stop?” She was angling her pelvis toward his mouth, obviously ready for him.

Dominic smiled and lapped at her with the flat of his tongue. He nibbled and sucked at her, not worrying if she was headed toward an orgasm, just following her gasps and shouts. Soon she was riding his face.

“You’d better be quiet up there, unless you want your bodyguard to think you’re being mauled.”

Sylvie pushed herself against his mouth in reply. She made little high-pitched panting noises, faster and faster. Dominic’s cock was achingly hard, leaking all over his stomach.

Suddenly she sat to one side. “We should—”

Dominic got up to his knees and cut off her words with a fierce, messy kiss. He didn’t want her to reflect on how much she despised him, how they shouldn’t be doing this. He couldn’t stand to hear the contempt in her voice. Sylvie melted against him, gripping his shoulders as he lowered her back to the mattress.

Her thigh rubbed his erection. He rutted against her, desperate for the feeling of her skin. The thought of being inside of her, fucking her with that same savage intensity he’d seen in her eyes, sent jolts of need through his body.

“Tell me you want me,” he murmured. He really hoped she had a condom.

“Ye—wait, no. No.” She pushed him off her.

Damn. She’d come to her senses a lot faster than he had.

“We need to talk. We can’t just fuck like all the other stuff didn’t happen.”

“We can’t?” His massive hard-on begged to differ.

“No, Dominic. We can’t.” She scrambled up against the headboard, pulling the blanket partway over her nakedness. “I need to know what your uncle will do when he finds out you didn’t install that program. Will he hurt you? Or Raymond?”

He’d been trying not to think about that. “I’ll figure something out.”

“I want to help you.”

Dominic crawled up to sit beside her, pushing his dick with his hand to calm it down. “You sure about that?”

“Of course. I don’t hate you. I could never hate you now that I…know you.”

“That’s the nicest thing anyone’s ever said to me.” He only wished that were a joke.

“But we have to trust each other. For real this time.”

He exhaled. “Then the answer’s yes. My Uncle Charles will hurt me and Raymond once he realizes I failed to follow instructions. And Maureen. Sylvie, he threatened you as well.” Dominic put his arm around her and drew her against him. “I’m afraid of what could happen.” He couldn’t bear to lose anyone he cared about, including her.

“I’ve got Tanner and the other bodyguards I work with. And I texted Max tonight about putting a detail on Raymond. They’re going to stay hidden so the Syndicate doesn’t find out.”

Dominic closed his eyes as anxiety filled his stomach. His erection was gone. “Your friends are that good? If the Syndicate sees Bennett Security watching my brother, they’ll blame me.”

“They are that good. But it’s only temporary because we’ll get Raymond to safety as soon as possible. And you and Maureen.”

Dominic looked down at her. She sounded so confident. But how many times had he faked his way through, hiding the confusion that ate him up inside? “You’re sure the rest of Bennett Security will agree with you?”

“I’ll convince Max, and he’s all we need. And don’t worry about the flash drives. I have ideas for how to buy us some time. Do you trust me enough to let me handle this?”
