“That won’t take long.” In three strides she was beside the bed. “Here I am.”
“Yeah. So you are.” His hungry gaze raked over her as his hand closed on her arm and he urged her closer. “Come on down here, you.”
She climbed on the bed, straddling his thighs and bracing her arms on either side of his shoulders as she leaned forward. “Like this?”
“That’s good.” He cupped her head and brought her closer until their lips almost touched. “How I want you,” he whispered right before he kissed her.
The kiss was so hot that she wondered if she could come simply from the persuasive movement of his lips against hers. He made love to her mouth, telling her in no uncertain terms what he had in mind.
By doing that, he gave her ideas of her own. Breaking away from his mesmerizing kiss wasn’t easy, but she had other uses for her mouth. Sliding it over his chin, she began a slow, deliberate journey. The furnace came on again, but she barely registered the noise blasting through the basement and hammering at their door.
He groaned and combed his fingers through her hair. “Hannah…”
“Enjoy.” With the furnace rumbling just down the hall, she paid tribute to his muscled chest and felt his body tighten under the pressure of her lips and tongue. Heart racing, she kissed the hard planes of his stomach, inching her body lower on the bed. Then she caught the elastic of his briefs in her teeth, and he gasped.
She would have loved to pull the briefs off using only her teeth, but she ended up needing both hands to finish the job. By then Zach was breathing very fast, and once she’d uncovered him in all his glory, so was she. He was magnificent.
With her first taste, he began to quake. He gripped her head and tried to hold her back. “I can’t… I might not be able to…control…”
“Sure you will.”
“I don’t know.” But his grip relaxed.
“You will.” She licked the underside of his penis. “Because you don’t want me to stop.”
The furnace grew quiet, but Zach groaned loudly, filling the silence. “No, I don’t want you to stop. But I…oh… ooooh.”
“Good?” She closed her mouth over the quivering tip.
“You have no idea.”
She glanced up and saw that his eyes were squeezed shut. “Don’t you want to watch in the mirror?” She would never have dared make that kind of suggestion before tonight, but tonight she was more daring, more ready for sexual adventure.
“Can’t.”
“Why not?”
“I’ll come for sure.”
“Chicken.” Then she picked up one of the furry pom-poms dangling from her nightie and began to stroke his balls.
He yelled and nearly came off the bed. “Hannah! That’s…”
“Nice?”
“Fantastic.” He moaned. “I love it.”
Music to her ears. She wanted him to remember this night for a very long time, because she certainly would. She continued her sweet torture until the ache inside her and the moisture gathering between her thighs were impossible to ignore. There was only one remedy, and she was looking at it.
Easing back to the head of the bed, she nibbled on Zach’s ear. “Where did you put those packets?”
He reached behind the mound of pillows and silently produced one. “I can-”
“I know you can. But I want to.” She ripped open the package and took out the condom. Her fingers shook, and he was trembling, too, but she got him suited up at last. Then she pulled her nightie over her head and threw it on the floor. Her black thong followed.
When she glanced back at him, his eyes were open and he was watching her, his chest heaving.
“I’m taking the top this time,” she murmured.
“Take what you want.” His voice sounded strangled. “I’m…desperate.”
So was she. Swinging one leg over him, she braced both palms on his chest and looked into his eyes as she lowered herself, taking his penis deeper, and deeper yet.
His eyes darkened as he grasped her hips, his fingers flexing. “So…good.”
She nodded. Then slowly she turned her head, so she could see their reflected image. What a rush. She’d never have believed how beautiful the two of them would look, their bodies glowing with shared passion.
Zach turned his head, too, and their glances locked in the mirror.
Watching his eyes, she began to move. Being able to see the heat in his gaze and the rhythmic movement of their bodies hurtled her toward a climax faster than she could have imagined. The image blurred as she came, crying out with abandon, knowing no one could hear her.
But he didn’t follow her down that path. His laugh was triumphant and very male as he urged her on, inserting one hand between them to massage her throbbing clit. “I want another one, louder than that!”
Faster and faster they bucked against the narrow mattress. Her hair flew out around her, and her breasts bobbed with every thrust.
The furnace kicked on again, as if to add to the energy swirling through the room, and she obliged him with another orgasm, this one noisier than the first.
“There!” he cried. “Ah, Hannah, now!” And he bellowed with satisfaction as his own climax surged through him.
At the force of it, they both nearly toppled off the bed. Hannah saved them both by making a grab for the headboard. Laughter and moans of pleasure mingled as they collapsed against each other and clung to the sides of the small bed.
Zach gulped for air. “This is the best damn hotel room I’ve ever been in.”
“No kidding.” Hannah snuggled against him. “Who needs a suite?”
“Not us.” Zach held her tight. “We have all we need right here.”
She did, that was for sure. “I can’t believe you almost went home tonight.”
“Me, neither.” He stroked her back for several long, sensuous moments. Finally he spoke again. “Hannah, I want you to come down to the office tomorrow morning.”
That startled her. Not exactly pillow talk. “Look, forget what I said about your boss. I’m sure he’s terrific, and I should never have-”
“It’s not about that. I want to introduce you to Ed. He…might have exactly the publishing contact you need.”
How strange. Ed, the guy who’d been kicked out of the corner office. “Okay. That would be great.” Something was going on here, but she wasn’t sure exactly what.
She didn’t have time to think about it, either, because it turned out Zach had a very short recovery time. And the furnace was rumbling again…
IN THE MORNING ZACH suggested they order room service, his treat, just to see if anybody could find them down in the basement. To his surprise, the service was speedier than usual, and he ended up giving them a sizable tip for being so prompt. The staff seemed to know exactly where 25B was, which validated his suspicion that it was a rendezvous point.
After breakfast he longed to hang around for more fun and games, but he needed to make sure he got to the office on time so he could talk with Ed. “You know where to go, right?” he asked for the fourth time as he finished dressing.
“I know exactly where to go.” She’d taken a shower and washed her hair, so she sat on the bed with one towel wrapped around her wet hair and the other barely concealing her lush body.
He deserved a medal for keeping his hands off her. “I just want to make sure.”
She smiled. “I’m new to town, but I’m reasonably intelligent.”
So was he, but all his intelligence threatened to abandon him when she smiled like that. She was so incredibly beautiful, and spending the night with her had convinced him that he would never find anyone so special if he searched for a million years. But she wasn’t in the market for a commitment, and he might soon be unworthy of
