“Baby, when I can feel your heat this close, I’d agree to anything.” He hitched her up higher. “If we didn’t have so many clothes on, do you realize—”
“I’ve already thought of that.”
She squirmed against him and he grimaced with supreme pleasure. Carrying her, he went into the guest bedroom. As soon as her legs slid from around him and her feet touched the floor, they began tearing off their clothes, depositing them on the floor with heedless disregard for tidiness.
They moved into the adjoining bathroom, tacitly agreeing that a shower was in order. Linc reached into the shower stall and adjusted the water taps. He stepped in and drew Kerry in with him.
Beneath the spray, their mouths met as eagerly as their bodies. Their hands were so busy they regretted having to take the time to soap them, but when they did, their pleasure was multiplied a hundred times. They moved against each other with the sleek seduction of sea animals in a mating ritual.
He turned her around, put her back against his chest, and ran his hands over her front, massaging her breasts, rolling her nipples between his soapy fingers. His hard sex probed between her water-slick thighs. That slippery friction was breathtaking. When he slipped his fingers into her, she was as wet and warm as the water that trickled down their bodies.
Their skin was still damp when he laid her on the bed and bent over her. “We’ll fight.”
“All the time.”
“You don’t mind?”
She reached for him. “Linc, don’t you know by now that you have to go through a little hell...”
He gave himself to her and completed the thought. “To get to heaven.”
