Michael thrust into me a few more times, letting the waves of pleasure wash over us both. I whimpered and wrapped my legs tighter around his waist, burying my face in his shoulder and biting down gently on his skin.
His arms were shaking as he slowly set me on my feet. My body immediately felt the loss of him as he slipped out of me.
“Come take a shower with me?” he asked. He tucked a stray strand of hair behind my ear. The look in his eyes was unlike anything I’d ever seen. His deep blue eyes were dark, full of emotion and need. It was more than desire. It was affection.
I nodded and let him lead me by the hand through the house. We walked naked down two flights of stairs until we reached Michael’s bedroom. He held open the door for me and left me alone while he turned on the shower. I listened to the water run and looked around his room.
Part of me thought I should feel awkward. I was standing alone in Michael’s bedroom, naked and dripping with sex. Still, I’d never felt more comfortable in my life. I didn’t know what it was about him, but I had now had sex twice with a man I’d only seen on three occasions. It was so uncharacteristic of me, but I just couldn’t help myself with him.
When Michael reappeared, there was a soft smile on his face that drew me to him. He pulled me against him and kissed my lips softly. We backed into the shower, still holding onto each other. Our kiss never broke as the steamy water cascaded over our aching and exhausted bodies.
We fell asleep in Michael’s bed that night. Neither of us bothered to get dressed after the shower. We curled up beside each other and drifted easily off to sleep.
CHAPTER 10
MICHAEL
Julie’s head was resting on my shoulder when the sun peeked through my bedroom window. I squinted and groaned, throwing my hand over my eyes. The movement woke Julie. She shifted slowly and moaned, sending shivers shooting down my spine.
“That moan is so unfair,” I said. My voice was rough from sleep.
“Why’s that?” Julie asked with her eyes still tightly closed.
“I have to go to work,” I said. “And when you moan like that…”
I growled softly and tightened my hold on her. She giggled and rolled into me, her naked tits pressing against my chest. I could feel that her nipples were already hard from my touch. I growled again and found her lips.
She kissed me back, wrapping her leg around my waist and pulling me closer to her. In seconds, my cock was fully erect.
“You’re killing me,” I said, pulling my lips free from hers.
“Just trying to brighten your morning,” she said innocently.
“You’ve certainly done that, Miss Black.” I laughed and kissed her again.
It took all my strength to break our kiss for a second time. It was already getting late, and I couldn’t afford to miss my morning meetings. The last thing I wanted to do was pull myself away from Julie, but I knew I didn’t have a choice.
“I’ll drive you home,” I said after we were both fully dressed. “We can swing by the café on the way.”
Julie smiled. “Sounds good.”
We got in my car and drove into town. Julie’s fingers were intertwined with mine the whole drive, but when we arrived at the café, she let go and hurried inside. I frowned and followed her. I wondered if she didn’t want to be seen holding my hand in public, but I knew better than to question it.
“Large cinnamon latte to go,” Julie ordered. “Please and thank you, Sarah.”
Sarah nodded and turned to me. “The usual, Mich
ael?”
“Please.” I nodded and pulled my wallet out of my back pocket.
“I got it,” Julie said firmly. Her hand was already buried inside her purse.
“Julie…” I began, but she silenced me with a look.
“You’ve bought me two meals now,” she said. “Please. Let me treat.”
I shrugged. “If you insist.”
