“Hey.” His fingers pinched down on her chin, gently tipping her face so she’d be forced to look him in the eye. “Is someone bothering you? Are you in danger?” He wasn’t above throwing her over his shoulder and driving away with her if she was. Everything about how she was acting made him think the situation was dire, whatever it may be.
She bit down punishingly on her bottom lip, Hawk’s hand immediately moving to cradle her face while his thumb gently encouraged her to let her lip go. “Danger of spontaneously exploding because of how fucking hot you look in your uniform!”
She pressed up onto her tiptoes, her hands reaching out and threading together around his neck. And before Hawk could think about what was happening, her lips were pressed against his.
It was all he’d thought about for the last year. The ache that settled deep inside him after she’d been taken with Mae. Their one night together had been incredible. He’d wanted to ask her out. Wanted something more. But she faded away. Whenever he saw her, Jessie avoided him.
Hawk thought things fizzled out for her…
Jessie’s tongue licked across his lips as her hips rocked against him. The tiniest moan escaped her as he opened up, and holy fuck, that was the hottest noise he’d ever heard.
But all of this was happening just a few yards away from where her entire family was. Where his friends were. Hawkknew she’d be embarrassed when the fogginess of the endorphins from the day wore off.
“Wait, I… What’s happening here?” he asked.
“I need some relief, Chief. And your service number just got called up. Are you ready and willing for the mission, or do I need to drive my pretty ass into town and find another willing man?”
Hawk growled. “I know I don’t have a claim on you, Jess, but don’t think for even a second I’d let you run off to fuck a stranger.”
“This is my hometown, Hawk. No one is a stranger here,” she teased. “I’d be safe. Someone could take care of this ache…”
“The only person who’s touching you tonight is me. Got that?”
“Yes, Sir.” She winked as her eyes moved down to his mouth.
“Fuck,” he groaned as she giggled. “We shouldn’t be doing this.”
“Oh yes, we should. And did you think I forgot how much you liked when I called you that?”
“No,beautiful.I haven’t forgotten. I’ve thought about it every goddamn day over this last year. But you’ve been giving me the cold shoulder. Should I be worried there’s some young asshole who’s going to try and beat my ass for sleeping with his girl?”
“I’m no one’s girl. Except tonight. Tonight I’ll be yours, if you want.”
“I fucking want, Jess. Not just for tonight.”
“That’s all I can give you. But it can be one really great night. We can even start in your truck on the way back to your place, if you want.” Her hand drifted down to cup his erection. Hawk’s eyes rolled to the back of his head and he had to remind himself he was still in uniform.
“Fuck. I want that. But I have to change…”
“Oh, but I like the uniform,” Jessie pouted.
“I didn’t say you couldn’t help me get out of it.” His fingers dusted along the thin strap of her dress. “And I can’t wait to get this off of you. I’m drooling over the thought of seeing all your curves again. Biting into each and every juicy line of your perfect body.”
“Careful, Hawk. Keep talking like that, and I’ll be a puddle before we get back to town.”
He grabbed her hand and pulled her towards the driveway of Gunner and Lily’s house. “Let’s go.”
“Such a gentleman,” Jessie sighed as Hawk held open the passenger side door to his truck.
“I try. You think you can make it up there okay?”
“Better give me a boost. Just don’t try to cop a feel…”
“Never, baby.”
His hand landed on her ass and squeezed. Jessie couldn’t hold in her laughter as she nearly catapulted on to the seat. Hawk’s mischievous smile, the one that made her belly quiver, was right in front of her as he reached in and slid the buckle across her body. He didn’t hide the way his hand skimmed right over her chest either.
“No bra?”
