She stirred, her brow furrowing in confusion, but a sleepy smile replaced it. She reached for him and their fingers entwined before she flipped onto her back and rubbed her face.
“I don’t want to get up.”
The sheet fell midway, revealing her luscious, full breasts and the feminine flare of her ribs. He couldn’t stop himself from touching her. With one finger, he trailed along the rise of her breast, stopping at the beautiful pink peak to tease and swirl, before continuing down...
“Keep that up and no one will be getting treats but me today.” She swatted at his hand, but it was a half-ass attempt.
“No one but us,” Dax replied. He covered her with his body, gently grinding the length of his erection into the soft V at her thighs. She didn’t hesitate, just opened those perfect legs to allow him to settle between them. Damn sheet was between them, but it didn’t deter the heat radiating off her. He closed his eyes as he ripped the sheet away and sank deeply into her.
His name dripped like the sweetest honey off her lips. Something in her tone made his heart soar with, what, hope? Her lips parted as if she had more to say, and he hoped she would—waited—
Her cell phone rang.
They both jumped at the unexpected sound.
“Jesus,” Allie groaned. She scrambled to reach her cell from the bedside table. Dax figured he could move, but he was enjoying the feel of her curvy body beneath his too much to let her go.
“Hello?” She answered before the phone was even to her ear. Dax didn’t need to adjust his heightened senses to hear the woman on the other end. It was Becks.
“Hey, babe. You, uh, coming in soon?”
Allie gently pushed Dax off her and he relented with a ton of regret. She sat.
“On my way in ten. What’s up?”
There was a pause. Allie’s face scrunched, her shoulders going tense. “Becks?”
“There’s someone here to see you.”
The clock flashed 5:45 a.m. Becks’ voice was tight and tense, and though he didn’t know her well, it wasn’t her normal. Allie seemed to think so too as she swung her feet over the side of the bed.
“Are you okay? Should I call the police?” She slid off the bed, leaving the sheet behind. Dax followed suit as Allie got dressed.
“I’m fine. Just... hurry.”
