Sienna shuddered and the ball of sensations inside her exploded as she came apart in his arms.
Even as the contractions of her climax receded, he turned her body until she was facing the glass. The city was a glow around them, the glass-enclosed tube too far up for anyone to see them. It was like making love among the stars.
Before she could catch her breath, he jerked up her dress to her waist. She arched into the thick heat of him as he pressed his cock against her.
He groaned when she spread her legs and he eagerly slid his fingers into the moisture there. He groaned again, pinning her against the glass. She heard a foil packet rip and with one swift lunge, he entered her. The glorious friction as he slid in and out of her in quick succession made her press her hands hard to the glass, her vision a haze of sparkling images, the streetlights, the bright buildings below, and the hard, twinkling stars. He thrust deeper and harder; his steely arm went around her waist, holding her tightly.
His free hand gripped the bodice of her stretchy dress and pulled it down. His fingers found her nipple and he twisted it between his fingers, causing sharp sensations from her breast to her groin.
That pushed her over the top. She pressed back and with a sharp cry, came—an endless shivering cascade of sensation, more intense than any orgasm she had ever experienced.
After a moment of catching her breath and rearranging her clothes, her gaze clashed with A.J.’s.
He smiled slow and easy. “How does it feel to break the law?”
“What?”
“Indecency in public. Against the law.”
She smiled back. “We’re not in public.”
“Ah, a technicality.” He cupped her cheek. “How about you take me to my car and follow me home? We can explore other ways to break the law.”
Down in the car, she started the engine. She was eager for a night of hot sex with him, so much so that she found herself speeding. She released her foot from the gas and resumed a more sedate pace.
But the closer she got to David’s apartment, the more she couldn’t stop thinking about it and the more she wanted his delicious mouth and body again. When they pulled up outside, she didn’t get a moment to say a word to him.
Her cell went off. For a split second, she thought about not answering it. Appalled at her reaction, common sense reasserted itself as she realized that she couldn’t. She answered and it was division HQ to tell her that one of her ongoing cases had blown wide open.
After hanging up, she looked at him. “I’m sorry.”
He leaned over the seat and gave her a hard kiss on the mouth, and she almost changed her mind again.
“So am I,” he whispered. Then he was out of the car and inside his.
She sat for a moment in dismay, until the taillights of his car disappeared around a corner.
She wanted to follow him and… What was the matter with her? she asked herself as she sat in her dark car. Uneasiness twined through her like thorns around a trellis, painful and tight. Maybe she’d been too hasty in taking the dare from her friends.
Haste made wastewasn’t just a saying for nothing.
Instead of following A.J., like she’d really wanted to only moments before, she turned her car around and headed in the opposite direction.
CHAPTER3
Sienna’s gloved fist hit the bag. It was smart to let A.J. disappear into the night. Her misgivings about sleeping with him again were as strong this Monday morning as they had been on Friday night.
Working through the weekend hadn’t diffused the impact of the kiss they’d shared or the tingling she experienced when she remembered him pressed against her while they danced. So, it was no surprise that she could envision A.J.’s heavy, naked body covering hers. Easy answer. He was smooth, hot, and good in bed. Who was she kidding? He was great in bed.
This morning she realized she should have kept a level head when her daring girlfriends had come up with the souvenir-gathering escapade. She’d escaped that temptation—just barely. Now it was too late to worry about getting anything at all from A.J. And she had no intention of seeking him out, not when the urge to take him was so strong in her.
Sienna accepted that. There was no use in mulling over decisions made, even ones made in the heat of the moment.
In fact, it would have been easy to forget about A.J. if only he hadn’t been so amazing otherwise.Funnyandintelligentwere words that easily came to her mind as she executed a couple of wicked right hooks along with a couple of undercuts. Dancing around the bag, she lifted her leg, the hard, toned muscles contracting as it whipped out at the bag.
The San Diego police gym was nearly deserted as most of the patrol cops had reported for roll call. Sienna glanced around the large rectangular structure that had been built to accommodate officers who needed to hone their bodies to tackle the everyday job of taking down perps. But all the weight machines stood idle, the thick mats on the floor empty, and the showers quiet.
She liked the early morning hours when she monopolized the gym. The silence was soothing. A balm before the ugliness of the world intruded on her, a time to be alone with her thoughts.
