“As I recall, you were the one who said I was everything you wanted and needed.” I slipped my arm around her waist and pulled her close. Damn, she felt so fucking good in my arms. “Or have you changed your mind about that?”
“No, I haven’t changed my mind about anything.”
“Good.” I leaned over to her, planting my mouth on hers, and kissed her thoroughly. Just when we were both starting to get carried away, I pulled back, breaking from our embrace. “Gotta go.”
“What!”
As I started for the door, I replied, “Gotta go make my rounds.”
“Can I go with you?”
I shook my head and said, “No.”
“Ugh...Okay then, when will you be back?”
“When I’m done?”
She rolled her eyes with a sigh. “What about dinner?”
“We’ll figure out something.” I gave her a wink, then stepped out onto the porch. “Don’t have too much fun while I’m gone.”
Before she could respond, I closed the door and headed over to the office to check in on McKinney. I took him some leftovers and made sure that he didn’t need anything else, then headed out to do a quick perimeter check. I was about to head back inside when I got a call from Menace. As soon as I answered, he announced, “You’re not gonna believe this shit.”
“What?”
“I was able to hack into the IA detective’s computer.”
“Thomas Long?”
“Yeah. Turns out he had all kind of shit on Mathews and was just about to take him down, but Mathews got to him before that could happen.”
“Anything there we could use?”
“Hell yeah, but that’s not the problem.” I could hear the frustration in my brother’s voice as he explained, “With these fucking cops, it’s hard to tell the difference between the good and the bad.”
“No doubt about that.”
“If we want to find a way to use this shit against Mathews, we’re gonna have to come up with the right way to do it.”
“You think you can find out if Long had a partner or someone he trusted?”
“Got no idea, but I’ll look into it.”
“Good. Let me know what you find out.”
After I ended the call, I shoved my phone back in my pocket and headed up the steps. As I reached for the door, a strange sensation washed over me. At first I didn’t know what it was, but then it hit me. It was hope—something I hadn’t felt in a long fucking time. We were getting closer to taking these motherfuckers down. Once we did, we could all get on with our lives, especially Remington.
When I walked inside the house, Remington was in the kitchen putting the dishes away. She stopped what she was doing and looked at me with those beautiful brown eyes as she asked, “Hey there, handsome. You hungry?”
“Um-hmm.”
“Okay, I could fix you a sandwich or some leftovers from last night.”
“Not really in the mood for leftovers.”
“Well, there’s some hamburger meat.” She started towards the refrigerator as she said, “I could fix you a burger or—”
She was about to open the refrigerator door when I reached for her, pulling her over to me. “That’s not what I’m hungry for.”
Remington’s eyes quickly filled with lust as she stared at my lips. When I couldn’t stand it a moment longer, I lowered my mouth to hers with a hard, demanding kiss. Her hands dove into my hair as I delved deeper into her mouth. It didn’t take long for things to become heated. With my cock throbbing with need, I growled, “Damn it, woman. You got any idea what you do to me?”
“Show me.”
I watched in awe as her hands dropped to her shorts, and with a quick twist, she had them unbuttoned and they were slipping down her long sexy legs. Fuck. In a matter of seconds, this woman had my entire body consumed with need. I pulled her back into my arms and let my hand trail possessively down her abdomen. A light hiss escaped her lips when I eased the lining of her lace panties to the side and grazed her center with the tips of my fingers—my already hard cock pulsed against my zipper when I found she was already soaked. “Damn, you’re so fuckin’ wet.”
She gasped as I pulled her shirt off and slipped her perfectly round breasts out of her bra. With her eyes on mine, I lowered my mouth and began swirling my tongue, first around one nipple and then the next. Her head fell back as she moaned, “Oh God.”
I nipped and sucked, relishing the sounds of her little whimpers as I teased her with my tongue and my teeth.
“You have any idea how bad I want you right now?”
“Um-hmm.” She purred. “Just as much as I want you.”
I lowered my hands to her hips and reached for her lace panties, easing them down her legs. Desire flashed through her eyes as I lifted her up and placed her on the kitchen counter. Need and desire had me lowering my mouth between her thighs.
She inhaled a deep breath when the bristles of my beard brushed against her soft skin, her back arching as my tongue skimmed across her smooth center. I spread her trembling legs wider, and a needful moan echoed through the room as I slid my tongue between her folds.
“Damn, baby. You taste like fucking heaven.”
Remington's breath became uneven and hitched as I slipped my finger deep inside her. Focused and unrelenting, I teased her g-spot with a slow and steady rhythm. Her hips inched forward as she tensed around me. Loving how her beautiful body responded to my touch, I continued grazing and teasing her clit with my tongue. Overcome by her impending release, she grabbed me by the hair and lifted her hips, begging for me to give her more. I drove another finger deep inside her while biting down gently on her clit until she got exactly what she needed.
Her head fell back as she gasped. “Yes!”
“That’s it, baby.”
I slid my tongue over her as I continued moving my fingers inside her body, tormenting that spot that was driving her to the edge. That was all it took. While muttering my name incoherently, she submitted to her release and clamped down around my fingers.
Nothing turned me on more than watching her come undone. I couldn’t wait a moment longer. I had to be inside her. She was still in the throes of her release when I got undressed and rolled on a condom. Anticipation filled her eyes as I wrapped my fingers around my pulsing cock and started to slowly stroke my hand up and down my long, hard shaft. Fuck. She looked so damn beautiful sitting there, her eyes dazed with lust, waiting for me with that wanton look. I couldn’t imagine wanting her more. I pulled her to the edge of the counter and brushed my cock against her slick center.
She was so warm and wet that I nearly lost it. Inhaling a deep breath, I tried to calm the storm that was raging inside of me, but my woman was eager for more. Unable to wait a moment longer, she wrapped her legs around me and forced me deep inside. I froze. Fuck. She felt so damn good, just like she had the night before. Hell, it was all I could do to keep myself from coming right then and there. I never dreamed a woman could have me at such a loss of control. I slowly withdrew and watched with a sense of satisfaction as her brows furrowed with disapproval. A slight smile crossed my face as I leaned over to her and whispered, “You like having my cock inside you?”
