“My job is on the line? I went to the movies with him one time and slept with him just a few times. Tell me you haven’t done that in your years with the force.” Her face was indignant and I glared at her.

“He is a student. He can’t have an edge on the others because of a relationship with you. Fuck someone off the

base, Olivia. Keep it separate, for fuck’s sake.” She leaned back and pressed her full breasts out as if it was going to change my mind. “You don’t want to go down because of this. The last couple that did lost everything.” They were discharged after all, starting over after they pledged their life to the force.

Olivia stood and looked doubtfully at me for a moment. “You never wanted me, did you?” I shook my head. “He did. That’s why everything with him happened.”

“You are ten years in, Olivia. Don’t throw it all away for something so trivial. This isn’t the only place to find men.” I reminded her, still sitting as she pressed her lips together. Olivia was the girl in college that would fuck everyone, out of need or the chance to get ahead. It amazed me that she was rising on the base at all with her career. Olivia was a fucking instructor. Maybe there was more corruption here than I wanted to believe in the first place or maybe her heart was in the right place. She was only in her thirties, after all. She still had some growing up to do.

I headed to my car after the day ended, hoping that Olivia did end it with him. I could have fired her today, sent her packing but I think that she really did love her job. I made it clear that I would be watching her before ending the meeting.

Looking at the clock in my car, I noted that it was four o’clock. She’d been off work for a short while and might be napping, so I decided that I’d save dinner for another night and hope that she slept over tonight. I was still half-hard from the time in the air but it was a harsh reminder that nothing might be done about it unless I jerked myself off later. I headed home with that in mind, yawning as I pulled out of the parking lot. Maybe I needed a fucking nap. It was tough being a boss.

I took a shower when I got home, stroking myself into a hard orgasm before dressing in sweats and a t-shirt to watch the local news. I sent Molly a text when sports came on, waiting for a response. I didn’t expect to go over there for dinner every night as she’d joked about, even though the food was damn good. When she said that she and Noel were making fried chicken for dinner and offered to bring some with her later tonight, I frowned. She didn’t have a car, did she?

I agreed and dropped the phone beside me to keep watching the scores, smiling. Molly wanted to spend the night with me again and hope flared through my cock at the idea of her touching me. I double checked to make sure she had a way over and just relaxed as I snacked on some chips. I thought about her family here, considering taking them all to dinner or maybe cooking for them here. I got on well with them and I sensed a welcoming feeling from Keith now that he knew me a little more. He looked like he wanted to lecture me the first night I was there, but he wasn’t her father. I made a point of assuring him that I was going to treat Molly well since I had every intention of that.

Now that I had that out of the way, I could just get to know them.

I was dozing when I heard an engine. I lifted my head up to see that it was nine o’clock and walked groggily over to the door. I peered out to see the Jeep as Molly walked towards the door, seeing a hand wave from the window before it backed out. “I could have picked you up,” I told her as I opened the screen to let her by.

“Noel offered and she was going to see Nate, anyway. I did talk to Keith over dinner about that though.” Molly walked into the kitchen and placed a large bag on the counter as my eyes glossed over with hunger. “He has a friend that owns a car lot by the movie theater and we’re going there tomorrow to have a look. I want something for myself so I don’t need to borrow the Jeep so much. I’ve been saving for a year or so for something and that way, I could just go to work from here and let you sleep in, as often as you’d want that.” I faint blush covered her cheeks as she turned to walk towards me, her eyes bright. “I know that you’re probably hungry, but I need a kiss.” Molly slipped her arms around my neck, pulling herself up to press her sweet lips to mine. That was meal enough for the moment and I pulled her closer to deepen the embrace as our tongues danced gently together. God, I loved the taste of her eager mouth, feeling my hand slide down her body to cup her ass, making Molly jump. I squeezed gently as she gasped and pressed her body closer to me.

I could think of many women that had let me push them back on the counter and fuck them after just a kiss, needing me to control them. That was what I wanted more than anything before Molly, and now I was willing to wait for her. I wanted to ease her into this life of mine, knowing that she was all in when I was taking her. The thought of being inside of her made me jerk and she moaned as I pressed against her stomach, hard and throbbing inside of my sweats. “Robert,” she whimpered against me as I gripped her tighter and tilted my head.

“I want you,” I told her as I pulled away to kiss her jaw. My words became clear in my head as I blinked and tried to force my strong desire away. “I want to see you come.” I lifted her up onto the counter and she groaned as I spread her legs open.

Chapter 18

Molly

The second my ass hit the counter, I froze. I was incredibly turned on yet also scared as he pressed into me, his cock hard against my soft, wet core. I knew that there was a part of me that wanted him to strip me bare and take me right here and now, but I’d never get my first time back. I’d hate to give in and then lose Robert, since I was getting attached to him. How much would it hurt if I was that intimate with him? Lance was devastating enough with his cruel words and behavior. I stilled against him and Robert pulled away to look into my eyes. “Are you okay?”

I remained quiet for a moment as he dropped his hands, taking a step back. “I’m sorry.” I slid down to the floor and pressed my hand to my face as I took a deep breath. “I just got scared.”

“That moved fast. I didn’t think about what I said and then the counter…I just lost control for a moment.” Robert told me as he set about plating some of the food to heat up.

“It isn’t that I don’t want you as well,” I assured him as he smiled and nodded. He’d loaded up a plate with two pieces of chicken, some of the potato wedges and a roll. He looked like he was in heaven.

“This looks great. Thank you,” Robert popped the plate into the microwave and I relaxed for a moment. “You made this for them?”

“Noel taught me how to do it and Marta taught her. I just join in because Marta deserves a break. She does so much for everyone.” I laughed. “She made the cookies yesterday though and I saved those for here. I wanted to share some of the meal with you.” I reached for that bag and removed two as he chuckled. “I’d like to cook for you here.”

“After I do it for you first, sure.” Robert pulled the plate from the microwave and carried a beer with him to the couch as I followed. I watched him, seeing how amazing he looked as I wondered why he was with me. Any other woman would’ve gone with that back there for Robert. It was one of the hottest moments I’d ever experienced and my body was still tight with need. I still wanted him and I considered the night ahead as I nibbled on a bite of the rich treat. I could take care of him a little more than before since I wasn’t ready to give myself completely to him. I could make him happy because I needed to touch that gorgeous body. I liked seeing him break under me.

I was always getting the pleasure from him. Robert must go to sleep so tense after the things that we did. Tonight, he would feel it as well and I smiled at the thought.

He finished his plate, full of praise for Noel and me before he went to wash it. I gathered my backpack and carried it to the bathroom before returning to the living room, seeing it empty. I walked into the kitchen and found him just finishing. Wrapping my arms around his waist, I squeezed tightly and breathed him in. I was throbbing from want as I inhaled the outdoor scent that was all Robert and one of my hands slipped down to the waistband of his sweats. He tensed and I moved to kiss his back. “Come to bed.”

“Okay,” he murmured, turning as I stepped back. His eyes were wide as he stared at me, but I couldn’t miss the doubt that was on his face. I reached down to take his hand and lead the way, feeling my hea

rt jump in my chest.

We walked into the large room and I freed my hair from the ponytail, shaking it out as I gathered my strength. I glanced at Robert as he watched me with darkening eyes, pleased that I did this to him. “It was uncomfortable earlier and I apologize,” I started as I lifted my sweater over my head. “It just caught me off guard.” I moved towards him, kissing him as I slid my arms around his neck.

Robert pulled me against him as my nipples hardened under the t-shirt that I was wearing. I skipped a bra for this trip, all too aware of what happened to my clothes over here. He slid his tongue into my mouth and I felt the same intensity as earlier, only I wasn’t going to freeze up. I was going to touch him, feel him and fight with my head to decide what I wanted. I had a beautiful man that wanted me and there was no reason I should hold onto my virginity, not at this age. It was time to start living and put Lance behind me. I didn’t need to be scared any longer.

It was Robert that moved back and lifted the shirt over my head. His hands cupped me, stroking my nipples as I gasped. “I’ve been thinking about this all day. I was half-hard most of it thinking about you.” I stared at him as he smiled at me. “I had to play boss at work too, so there was some adrenaline involved.” I imagined him bossing me around and moaned as one hand slid down his tight body to stroke the bulge in his pants. My core softened and ached as he groaned my name and I squeezed a little tighter.
