My skirt rode up beneath it, cool air drifting over my heated, sensitive skin. Need tightened my core. My panties were drenched. If he didn’t touch me soon, I was doing it myself.
“Jacob, please.” I was about two seconds away from begging, but I didn’t really care. If it got him to touch me, I’d have dropped to my knees to get what I wanted.
A low growl reverberated against my throat, his teeth sinking into my skin while his fingers stopped moving. “Don’t push me, Laurie. I’ve waited long enough for this.”
Chapter 24
Jacob
Laurie froze when my lips crashed into hers. She stood perfectly still in my arms. It was like I’d paralyzed her with my mouth.
It couldn’t have come as that much of a shock to her when I finally gave in to all the fucking tension in the room. Jesus, I’d practically heard her screaming at me to kiss her. Since it was what I wanted too, I’d caved.
It didn’t take long before I felt her doing the same thing. She looped her arms around my neck and clung to me, kissing me back with such passion that I moaned—out loud.
That kind of thing didn’t really happen to me. I wasn’t one to make lots of noise during sex but fuck, I couldn’t help it. Her lips were so soft and her body felt so good against mine that I couldn’t stop.
In the back of my mind, I knew this was off limits. She was a client. We’d agreed to keep things strictly professional, and we were supposed to be discussing her case.
I should put a stop to this.
Right. Now.
But I couldn’t.
Need devoured me from the inside out and sent my mind galloping down the path to release. For both of us. The only thing I wanted more than to get myself there was to get her there. Multiple times preferably.
Stopping felt like a herculean task, and I just wasn’t strong enough to get myself to do it. Any strength I tried to call up to try and do the right thing was obliterated the first time she moaned.
Rational thought flew out the window.
Laurie’s fingers twisted in my hair and she held me to her like she was wordlessly begging me not to stop. It was like both of us had been telling ourselves we shouldn’t do this, and now that it was finally happening, we were letting go of our inhibitions.
Pfft. Who needs inhibitions? Not me.
All I needed was more.
She sagged against my chest, and a rush of satisfaction shot through me when I realized what that meant. Her legs were getting weak. Because of me.
I was more than willing to hold her up, but I didn’t want something as easy to fix as her being worried about falling to put a stop to this. If we stopped for even long enough for her to voice those thoughts, she might come to her senses and then it would be over.
Mentally reviewing the surfaces available in my office, I decided on the desk. It was the closest, and it was at a very convenient height. I’d noticed that before, but I’d never done anything in here. It had simply been a fantasy that I was more than happy to be fulfilling with Laurie.
Once she was on my desk, she spread her legs so I could fit between them, and threw her head back. “Jacob, please.”
Hearing the need in her voice while I had my cock pushed up against the heat of her center nearly drove me over the edge. I came so close that I had to sink my teeth into her skin just to feel something somewhere else.
That’s going to leave a mark.
I didn’t care, though. In fact, I’d have marked every inch of her if it were up to me. Maybe one day, I’d get to do just that. Mark her so every person out there would know she was taken. By me.
She wasn’t mine yet, so I held myself back. Today wasn’t about making her mine. It was about giving us both what we needed.
The growl that came out of me when I had to stop my hand from moving just so I could formulate the words I needed, didn’t even sound human. “Don’t rush me, Laurie. I’ve been waiting a long time for this.”
I toyed with the edge of her panties, pushing my fingers just past them while she whimpered. “I will give you what you want but not before we’ve had some fun.”
Grinding my hips against hers, a soft hiss whooshed out of me. My breathing was labored and my voice rough. “You can tap out anytime, but there are so many things I want to do to you.”
“Do them later.” Her eyes were so dark now that they were the color of a forest before a storm. “I’m already having fun. I just want to have so much more.”
I hadn’t expected her to say something like that. I stilled before my lips kicked up into an involuntary smirk.
“Already?” I dipped my hand into her panties, groaning when my fingertips were met with smooth, velvety wetness that made me jerk my hips to get closer to it.
“Fuck yes, already.”
I really didn’t want this to be over too soon, which was why I’d wanted to take my time. But I also couldn’t deny her. Spreading some of her juices with my fingers, I used the lubrication to draw circles around her clit with my thumb.
Her thighs trembled and tightened around mine, the moans spilling from her lips cluing me in on what she needed and what she liked. My fingers kept moving, my speed and pressure changing as I gauged her reactions.
One of her hands flew out behind her to find purchase on something, and I heard my landline crashing to the floor. It didn’t bother me, but her eyes suddenly flew wide open, and her body stopped writhing.
Fuck. My computer was behind her, as well as stacks of files. The desk might be the perfect height, but I hadn’t really thought I’d need to clear it for this today.
“Get down on the floor,” I said but it came out more as a command.
“What?” She blinked, and some of the haze disappeared from her gaze. “Here?”
“Is there something wrong with here? I thought you didn’t want to wait.”
“I don’t.”
“Then get down on the fucking floor,” I gritted out between my teeth. Holding a hand out to her as if I were a gallant gentleman instead of just hellbent on keeping this going, I kept a firm hand on her while she stood up on shaky legs.
I followed her down, sinking to my knees between hers and hovering just above her while my hand went back to work. She shattered around my fingers shortly after, sucking them in while she flooded my hand.
Probably in an attempt to keep quiet, she bit into my shoulder until her body stopped quivering. Her mouth formed a perfect circle when she pulled back, and her eyelids screwed shut. It was the hottest sight I’d ever seen. So hot that I moaned right along with her.
Despite the fact that she hadn’t even touched me yet, I was one wrong move away from finishing. When she focused on me again, I had to grind my cock against her thigh for just the slightest relief. “More comfortable than worrying about what’s about to fly off the desk?”
She nodded. “I was really worried that you were going to be pissed at me for breaking your laptop or something.”
“Break whatever you want. It wouldn’t have bothered me.” I trailed soft kisses over the column of her throat, my lips brushing against her skin while I talked. “I wouldn’t have told you to move, but I don’t like distractions. You worrying is a distraction.”
