He looked at her, winked, and bam. Everything inside her wanted to get naked and ride him.
Leighton never wanted to ride anything. Not horses, not the train, not a wave.
Yet she wanted to ride Axl.
She took one final sip of her wine and stood up.
She was going to the rodeo.
Five
Axl wasn’t sure what had changed Leighton’s mind about having sex with him but he was not going to question it. He had asked her if she was sure, she’d said yes, and now it was go time. She actually looked determined. Like she had made up her mind and now she wanted to grab him with both hands.
He wasn’t usually so aggressive with women. Out of his group of five friends, he was the least likely to have a one-night stand. He had in the past, but not nearly with the frequency of his buddies. It just wasn’t his thing. He felt fucking awkward expecting a woman he just met to take her clothes off for him. But with Leighton it had been lust at first sight and he couldn’t wait to get her naked.
Following her out of the bar, he thought about her attempts to be flirty with him when she thought he was a stripper sent to entrap her and he had to grin. “Hey, big boy” comments just weren’t her style. He wasn’t sure what her flirtation style was. Maybe straight forward, just like his.
Leighton was fast-walking, which was fine by him. He had a long stride and he wanted to get her alone as soon as possible.
She took him to the elevator. When the doors opened, he put his hand on the small of her back again and followed her inside. She hit the button for the third floor and turned to say something to him. Whatever it was going to be got swallowed by his mouth drop
ping over hers. He kissed her hard, deep, dragging her up against his chest so he could feel the press of her luscious tits. He buried his other hand in her wavy hair, kissing her intently.
She gave a little moan and threw her arms up around his neck. She rose to her tiptoes. Axl lowered his arm behind her firm ass and hauled her up even tighter against him. They kissed like the end of the world was minutes away. Like everything depended on this kiss. With depth and passion and urgency. It was like with each press of their lips they were resuscitating each other.
He wasn’t sure where that thought came from.
He just knew that he felt alive and in this moment.
Axl lifted her completely off the ground. She gasped.
“Oh, my God, put me down!”
But he ignored her. “Wrap your legs around me.” He had her easily. He’d been working out since he was twelve. It wasn’t a hardship to hold her up, his hands under her ass. He gave her a little bouncing lift to get her higher up on his hips. She was holding onto her shoulders and giving him a look of wide-eyed horror.
“Kiss me, Leighton,” he murmured into her ear, before turning to meet her lips with his.
She kissed him obediently, her fingers trembling on the back of his neck. “This is insane,” she whispered, pulling back slightly.
“Insanely hot.”
“I can’t argue with that.”
He pursued her lips with his and they both got lost in the wild passionate embrace. Her curves were pressed everywhere against him, her tight ass resting on his forearms, her full tits crushed against his chest. He had a rock solid hard-on already.
The door swung open and he knew they should exit the elevator but that meant ending their kiss and he didn’t want to do that.
“Oh, my God!” a strange voice said in shock.
Shit. They’d been caught. Axl dragged his mouth off of Leighton’s and turned to see who was witness to their elevator intimacy.
It was two women in their sixties. Great. He was keeping it classy. “Sorry, we’re just getting a room.”
“I should hope so,” the one with enormous black glasses and rich red lipstick said. “Maybe you should have ten minutes earlier.”
She didn’t actually look offended. She and her friend, who had short white spiked hair and a stylish scarf on, exchanged amused looks. “Are you a cop?” the second woman asked.
“Yes, ma’am. Off-duty, obviously.” Why the hell hadn’t he changed? This was not helping his current problem with his chief. There were most likely surveillance cameras in the elevator.
